Odds Near Even Money
Betting odds, favoring the Pirates
from the outset because of their
hitting and great speed oscillated
last night to something very near
even money. The appearance here
of the club which wrested the world
title from the Giants last year
seemed to inspire an increase in
local respect but, for the most part,
Pittsburgh was thoroughly con-
vinced that Pittsburgh was good

that the Pirates would or would not
win the opening game.
Here again short odds were asked
and given, and not without justice.
Stanley Harris was TO go into the
game at second base wearing a
sausage for an index finger on his
throwing hand: Coveleskie. second
game pitching choice. had n lame
back, and Roger Peckfnpaugh's de-
mountable knee was ready to jump
its collar at any given moment
Moore, the Pirate second base
man, likewise was believed to he
slightly indisposed with bad hand,
but otherwise the Pirates were fit
and ready to play that scintilant
compelling game that carried them
TO the National League pennant
with eight games to spare.
The bleacher gates were thrown
open at 9 o'clock, but Judge Lands,
commissioner of baseball; Clifford
Pinchot, governor Of Pennsylvania;
Presidents Ban johnson and John
A. Heydler. OF the American and
National leagues, respectively, could
not be seen in the general stam-
pede. They were to occupy their
several field boxes close to the dia-
mond. So was John K. Tener, for

former major league pitcher and

Experts Figure Pirates To Win
The latter, being National
Lacquer, naturally favored the
Pirates and he had plenty Of com

gated mere. eight out OF ten looked
for Pittsburgh victory, which was
quite a handicap for the Pirates to
carry.
However, it was agreed pretty
generally that no world series con.

be so evenly matched as the Pirates
and Griffmen. The latter were
thought to have a slightly inferior

The Pirates have the better out

but the Senators were conceded to
employ the steadier infield.
But when the last voice was
stilled, the debate reverted auto

Johnson's ability TO win and he
was due to give his answer today.
This was the great question re-
