Many Fans Disappointed
Efforts to Get Tickets
for World's Series.
in
BARRY'S HAND STILL WEAK
Police Keep Close Watcli for Specu
lators Women and Staid Busi
ness Men Vie With Messenger
- Boys for Places in Line.
BOSTON'. Oct. 5. Seekers of reserved
Beats took on the appearance of
bleacher crowds today in the scramble
for reservations for the world's series
baseball games which begins here
Saturday. Women and staid business
men vied with messenger boys and
others in their efforts to gain promi
nent places in the line.
No actual disorder developed, but the
police were called upon to reform
lines, and club employes endeavored to
placate disappointed applicants who
clamored for answers to their written
requests for seats. f
Special Seats Not Designated.
The rush for reservations was a re
sult of a. new system, made necessary
this year. President J. J. Lannin, of
the Boston Americans explained, be
cause .of the late date -upon which the
American League race was decided. By
this system, successful applicants were
assigned a number calling for tickets
of a certain class, without a definite
designation of the, seats as in other
years. Those first in line obtained the
better seats as they were distributed
by the ticket sellers, and it was to ob
tain this advantage that applicants
sought the leading places in the lines.
In All- probability, club officials
CLgree, more persons have been disap
pointed through failure to receive
tickets this year- than ever before.
Hundreds of requests have been re
fused. Clone 'Watch Kept for Speculators.
The police patrol of the ticket lines
is rigorous, and those soliciting or sell
ing tickets are first warned away and
then arrested if they persist. One ar
rest was made today. Private detec
tives are said to be in touch with the
distribution of large blocks of seats
furnished to municipal officers, the po
lice and fire departments and various
public service companies, to be certain
that none of these blocks is turned to
private profit.
Because of their delay in obtaining
world's series tickets, some of the
players missed a train for Worcester,
where part of the team played an ex
hibition game with the Philadelphia
Americans. Others delayed their ap
pearance for practice at Braves' field
for the same reason.
The session at Braves' field, which
Manager Carrigan directed, was a-limbering-up
affair in which everybody
seemed to take it easy. To friends in
Worcester, Captain Jack Berry said his
recently broken hand was still weak
end he said it was doubtful whether
he would be able to play in the big
series.
FAIR WEATHER IS PREDICTED
Outlook Good for Opening of Big
Series at Boston Tomorrow.
BOSTON', Oct, 5. Fair weather will
prevail on Saturday for the opening
same of the world's series here, in the
opinion of John II. Smith, head of the

BILL CARRIGA3T.
CARRIGAN
NOW HERO
Fans Turn From Knocking to
Boosting Great Manager.
RETIREMENT IS POSSIBLE
Public Long . In Realizing That
Red Sox Pilot Has AblUty ' as
Well as Luck, but Victor Is
Finally Acclaimed.
Baseball will lose a great manager
if William Carrigan, of the Red Sox,
goes into retirement at the end of the
world's series which starts on Braves'
field. Boston, tomorrow afternoon.
Bill has threatened to retire. He
made the threat when the Beantown
brigade was in the midst of the warm
est pennant race ever staged in the
junior major circuit. After the big
series with Brooklyn it is thought that
Bill will change his mind and stay
with the cause.
It took the general public a mighty
long time to tumble to the fact that
Carrigan was possessed of ability
rather than good fortune. Up to this
season fickle fandom was inclined to
regard the triumphs of the Boston
Americans under Bill the result of
sheer playing strength that overtopped
the field rather than to pay homage to
a manager who took no pains to press
agent himself.
- Credit Not Carrisran's Aim.
It was all Bill's fault. Carrigan has
always been quite content to let his
light shine under a bushel. As long as
his club went on its winning way reap
ing a harvest of shekels for the stock
holders, Carrigan did not seem to care
a rap who got the credit.
It is doubtful if Bill Carrigan was
fully appreciated even in Boston until
this season. The hero worshipers of
the Hub were too inclined to pay trib
ute to the prowess of individual stars
who kept more to the foreground than
the deep - plotting, heavy - scheming,
hard-thinking young man more vitally
concerned with the success of the
American League in the City of Cul
ture. This season Carrigan dispelled the
last vestige of doubt in the minds of
those inclined to hold him lightly. He
has won another pennant without the
services of Tris Speaker and Joe Wood,
who a year ago were considered indis
pensable to the Red Stockings. When
the refusal of Pitcher Joe Wood to re
port was followed by the sale of Center
Fielder Tris Speaker to Cleveland, fan
dom not only began to weep for Carri
gan and his champions, but Boston fan
dom got out its hammers and began to
make the coffin for their hopes.
Start lit Race Slow.
Carrigan fooled them all. He fooled
them after a start that might have
prompted a less resolute soul to throw
up the sponge. At first, even his
staunchest supporters quit him. The
Red Sox were slow to get away. Cleve
land, with Speaker, began to burn up
the league. Carrlgan's reputed wealth
of pitching material was slow to come
around. The veteran Joe Wood was
lamented by his friends. Wood won
15 games and lost but five through 1916.
And then, just as they prepared to
hunt the shroud for Bill and his Sox,
something happened. Slowly, steadily,
they began to creep up on the well
bunched field. One by one it passed
wearying pacemakers, until it finally
came down to a. question of stepping
out for a. cleanup on the last Western
trip.
The last junket of the world's cham
pion Sox through the West, is a mat
ter of history now. This team, which
called forth tears In the early Spring
time, did not cry for help from any
other quarter.

BY ROSCOE FAWCETT.
Portland defeated Oakland yester-
I day in a weird, free-hitting game that
mounted to the voluminous score of IS
to 13, and was played in the remark-
ab,y fast time of something short of
three weeks, at least so it seemed to
the 600 apathetic fans.
I Nearly everybody's bat average
profited, by the fence-splitting soiree.
Chick" Cunningham, of the Oaks,
bagged four hits, and five of the
Beavers annexed three swats apiece off
the Oak pitching quartet.
Young White started the twirling for
the Oaks; Kinney replaced him in the
third, and then, with the score 12 to 3,
Del Howard in disgust took to the
mound himself and for a couple of in
nings Howard bad everything, includ
ing the waist line, that some witty
bleacherite passed badinage over.
Even Del finally caught the fever,
however, and after the Beavers hopped
on him for six runs in the seventh in
ning, -the manager of the Omega club
of the league beckoned Boyd Into the
fracas and Boyd finished the travesty.
Meanwhile some of the Beaver pitch,
ers were getting theirs. Byron Houck,
as long as he was In the box, had the
Oaks at his mercy, but Walter Mc
Credie figured there was little use in
wasting Houck on that sort of comic
opera. Finally Mac yanked Byron In
the seventh and gave Lyle Blgbee a
chance to show his wares.
The score at this juncture stood 12
to 3 in Portland's favor. Within five
minutes the Oaks had six runs over the
old home plate, however, and McCredte
made haste to get Blgbee out of the
line of action.
Although Bigbee exhibited traces of
his Spring training wildness, if the
Beaver infield had given him a little
support he night have emerged un
scathed. Herb Kelly twirled the last
couple of innings, and the Oaks scored
enough runs off him to make it 18
to 13.
As a ball game the whole affair re
minded of Paul Revere riding a ve
locipede. Everybody tried to pull something
unique. There were wild pitches and
passed balls and stolen bases as numer
ous as the grandstand attendance, and
triples and doubles, and all sorts ot
miscellaneous things that appear at
the bottom of the box scores.
To satisfy those who have a morbid
thirst for gore we hereby furnish the
vital statistics on Portland's five first
tallies in inning one. White being the
recipient:
Evans walked; WIHe doubled to right;
Southworth tripled to center, scoring
two; Howard singled to center, scoring
Southy; Roche singled to left; Rodgers
singled over second: Rodgers and
Roche staged . a double steal; Ward
scored Roche with a sacrifice fly to
left; Houck also drew a single but
Rodgers was cut down at the home
plate.
But why keep the complete record
of the quarrel away from the expectant
fan as he sips his coffee? Peruse for
yourself the box score:

RED SOX VETERANS
IN EVERY RESPECT
Average Age is 271-2 Years
and Average Experience
Is Seven Years.
ONLY ONE IS BOSTONIAN
Janvrin Alone Comes From Hub
City Team Mueli Like IS 15
Champions Save That Sscaker,
Collins and Wood Are Gone.
NEW TORK. Oct. E. The American
League representatives in the coming
world's series will be a veteran com
bination in every sense of the word
both in pennant and series champion
ship play. In age and experience the
Boston Americans are veterans who
have been tried and proved winners in
many a hard-fought league and world's
series drive. Taking the players on the
club roster and without regard to those
who will or will not figure in the bat
tles with the National League standard
bearers, it will be found that their1
average age is 27H years and their
average years in professional base
ball a trifle over seven. So far as
their physical statistics are concerned
it is shown that they average 174
pounds a man and in height 5 feet
10 2-3 inches.
Only one player hails from Boston,
the remainder of the team coming from
all parts of the country to form the
championship combination which won
the American Leaguo pennant after
one of the hardest fights in the history
of the Junior league. The one player
who can really call Boston his home is
Janvrin. a utility infielder, who may
fill second base position because of
Captain Jack Barry's injured hand. The
other men eligible to participate in the
title play as members of the Red Sox
and to share in the consequent reward
come from places widely separated,
many of them in obscuro corners of
the land lifted to public notice only
by the appearance of their citizens as
members of a world's series contend
ing team.
The American League champion Red
Sox of 1916 resemble closely the team
which won the world's championship
last year, but have lost three more of
the small remaining group which tri
umphed over the Giants for the title
In 112. Speaker Is gone. Ray Collins,
the left-handed pitcher, has passed, and
Joe Wood, "smoke-ball" pitcher of other
days, is under suspension because of
salary differences. New faces have
been added, two appearing as possible
successors of Speaker at center field.
Walker, formerly of the St. Louis
Browns, and Shorten, who was called
from the Providence Internationals.
Another new outfielder is Walsh, one
time member of the champion Athletics.
McN'ally. a utility infielder. is of po
tential value, largely because of his
speedy base-running, while Wyckoff
and Jones, pitchers, and Agnew. a
catcher, are likely to play only nega
tive parts in the series.
The age, weight, height and home of
each player is shown in the appended
