GAS HEATER HELD
 CAUSE OF DEATHS
Hartford Family Tragedy Is
 Definitely Traced

Hartford. Oct. S.IPl-With the deaths of Brooks Parker and his five years old daughter and the ill- ness of Mrs. Parker traced definite ly to fumes produced by the gas water heater which Mrs Parker had lit late Saturday afternoon, public health and safety officials were to- day emphatic in their statements that the city building code should contain a provision requiring that gas heaters be connected with flues to carry off all poison fumes.
 pr. c. P. Botsford of the Hart ford board of health. and Philip A, Mason, building supervisor, in par ticular stressed the necessity of such flues.
 Dr. Botsford said he has given the subject of gas heaters considerable study. although never to the point of making any suggestions con- corning the situation, partly due to the numerous complaints he has re- ceived from tenants of Hartford home that they were being made ill by the action of their gas heaters. These complaints were most numer- ous during the winter when coal strikes resulted in a fuel shortage, he said, and when house holders used their gas heaters for consider able periods to warm their kitchens.
 pr. Botsford expressed the be- lief that the chronic illness of many housewives is frequently due to the small amoslnts of carbon monOXide, from their gas heaters, which they are continually absorbing.

 Much Betting
 World series talk hummed about the city again today after crowds of fans mobbed the scoreboards or tuned in their radios to be in on the Yankee triumph yesterday. The throngs before the newspapers were almost double those of the previous day. The general feeling along Broadway, where opinions were amply backed by cash, was that the Hugmen, now at the top of their stride, would look at all pitchers alike and end the series with a victory tomorrow. Little chance is conceded the Cardinals who must take two straight to gain world championship banner to Haunt at the. fiagpole with the first Cardinal pennant in 3S years.
 Tanks Strong Faverites
 Odds of 2 1-2 to l and 3 to 1 were offered on all sides that the Yankees win the series. One freak bet of 1-2 to 1 that Alexander, if he started, would not finish the nine innings, was recorded.
 Leading commissioners estimated that more than s1,000,000 had been wagered here on the final game at St. Louis. The uncertainty of the outcome of the critical con- test for both teams brought wagers in a constant flow to their offices, they said. The total of wagers on the series is expected to exceed s1O.O0o,Ooe.
