HOB HUMS ON EVE OF WORLD'S SERIES FAMOUS SOUTHPAW PITCHERS WHO LIKELY WILL OPPOSE EACH OTHER IN OPENING GAME OF WORLD'S BASEBALL SERIES TODAY IN BOSTON. BIG TEAMS TO PLAY :v Central States Elevens to Be in Action Today. THE ECT UNIONSUJX Fans From All Parts of United States Gather at Boston for Opening Game. KANSAS MEETS ILLINOIS t r-v BOTH TEAMS CONFIDENT While Betting Is lO to 7 on Red Sox, Brooklyn Has Big Band of Supporters, and Great Battle Is Expected. BOSTON. Oct. 6. This city awaits the opening' of the 1916 classic tomor row between the Brooklyn Nationals and the Boston Americans with the confidence that comes from faith in its playing representatives and the un broken string of victories in past con tests. The optimism and fighting spirit that the Brooklyn club and its accom panying band of supporters brought to town tonight added interest to tho im pending struggle for the premier hon ors of the diamond, without shaking in the least the. faith of the local fans that the Red Sox would triumph over the invading team. Walk-Over Not . Expected. This confidence Is reflected in every portion of the city as well as through out New England. In baseball debate and wagering it crops out time and again. While the betting tonight is 10 to 7 on Boston, but with little Brooklyn money in sight, the average supporter of the Boston Americans is far from predicting a walk-over. The determined and courageous struggle put up all sea eon by Brooklyn in winning the Na tional League championship has aroused great respect for the prowess of the National League standard-bearers, and It is conceded that they win give the Boston combination the stiffest kind of a battle. Great Interest Shown. The series to be opened at Braves Field tomorrow je far from being a sec tional affair, however, from tho stand point of interest. Notwithstanding that the contending teams are Eastern clubs the Interest in the coming struggle for the world's championship is National and this is clearly demonstrated by the feathering of the spectators for the two games that will be played here tomor row and Monday. "While it is only natural that the majority of the fns should hail from New England and New York, the fact remains that hun dreds of baseball enthusiasts from all parts of the country are here tonight awaiting - the beginning of the 11)16 world's series. Boston usually is far from lacking in ample hotel facilities, yet every hotel In the city tonight is thronged with baseball followers who are willing to endure inconveniences, provided they are assured a place to sleep and cat for the next few days. A glance at the registers shows that the fans have journeyed from the South, Far West, Central and Atlantic states to witness the play and explains why Braves Field, with its seating capacity for more than 42,000 spectators, will be unable to ac commodate the throngs who will be siege its gates tomorrow. Perfect Weather Forecast. As if to play the part of host to per fection, the weather man has promised Jiis finest brand of weather for the opening game, his prediction calling lor an ideal Indian Summer day, mod erately warm and with little if any wind. Every indication tonight pointed to his forecast coming true and hun dreds of men and boys gathered out tide the wall of the park for an all night vigil, under brilliant moonlight and in a warm balmy atmosphere that made overcoats and heavy wraps un necessary. The gates leading to the unreserved sections of 'the stands and bleachers will be opened early tomorrow and it was apparent that these sections would toe filled hours before the game begins at 2 p. M. With the exception of a few uncalled Ifor allotments, every reserved seat was eold out tonight and these will be snapped up immediately when they are put on sale at the box office tomorrow morning. Seat Sales Enormous. So great has been the demand for peats that not many are offered for pale by speculators. President J. J. Lannin, of the Boston club, stated that he had been forced to buy back, at a premium, some tickets which he needed for personal friends who had applied and could not be refused, at the last minute. Those speculators who were fortunate enough to secure even a pair of seats reaped a profit of more than 100 per tent upon their investment on their nere announcement that they had seats lor sale. Several were arrested during the afternoon for trafficking in the tickets at advanced prices. All the Boston players practiced dur ing the afternoon and each was re ported in perfect shape with the ex ception of Captain Jack Barry and George Foster, who will noUplay in the series because of Injuries. Brooklyn Boosters Arrive. The Brooklyn players and officials arrived tonight, accompanied by a large number of the newly-organized "Brook lyn Booster Club," and were met at the station by hundreds of fans. All indications point to a battle of Jeft-handed pitchers in the first game, for it appears to be settled that Man ager Robinson will send Marquard to the mound for Brooklyn, while Mana ger Carrigan .will rely on Leonard. If Leonard pitches. Outfielder Casey Stengel will not be in the Brooklyn lineup and the probable batting order ' will be as follows: Brooklyn Johnston, right field; Dau bert, first base: Myers, center field: Wheat, left field: Cutshaw, second base; Mowrey. third base; Olson, short stop. Myers, catcher; Marquard, pitcher. Boston Hooper, right field: Janvrin, second base; Walker, center field; Hob Jitzel. first base: Lewis, left field: Oardner. third base; Scott, shortstop; Carrigan. catcher; Leonard, pitcher. The umpires will be stationed as fol lows: Connolly (American League), be hind the plate; O'Day (National), on the bases: Dlneen (American), left field; Quigley (National), right field. All Details Arranged. There was the usual preliminary ac tivity of players and officials during the day and the few minor details left unfinished at the National Commission at New York Tuesday were cleared away. Soon after President Ban John son, of the American League, and John K. Tener, of the National League, ar rived from New York the positions of the umpires for the opening game were assigned and the announcement made that the infield fly rule of the two leagues would be observed under Amer ican League regulations when the clubs were playing at the Boston park and tinder tho National League code at Brooklyn. s League Pralea Confident.

",f-tz, tr- v s, Rnbe Marquard, Brooklyn. expressed confidence in the ability of their teams to win the series. J. J. Larinin, president of the Boston Americans, said: "Of course, I look to see our boys win, but I am not deluding myself with the idea that the series will be a walk over for the home team." Charles H. Ebbetts, president of the Brooklyn Nationals, predicted a sur prise for the Superbas, opponents. "Make no mistake," he said, "the Brooklyn club is going to upset some theories, before the series is over." B. B. Johnson, president of the Amer ican League, expressed great confidence in the ability of the Boston Americans to capture the world's series. John K.- Tener, president of the Na tional League, refused to pick a win ner, but all agreed the series would be very close. World's Series Observations BY ROSCOE FAWCETT. PACIFIC COAST LEAGUE fans will be interested particularly la the work of Ivan Olson, at -short for Brooklyn; Jimmy Johnston in the out field, and Carl Mays and. Vean Gregg, of Boston. Mays figures to work in one of the games for the Red Sox, Gregg, once proud and haughty south pay of the Clevelands likely will adorn the bench all week. Sam Agnew and Chester Thomas. Boston catchers, are from the Coast League. Agnew graduated from Ver non and Thomas from Sacramento. Cutshaw, second sacker for Brooklyn, went up from Oakland about five years ago. Mails and Dell, Brooklyn second string pitchers, matriculated from Se attle. For the most part the world's series games run true to form. That explains wny the bettors are willing to give odds that Boston will win for the Boston Sox have been through the mill and have demonstrated that they are a "money team." Carrigan's team possesses strong pitching and great gameness. According to Christy Mathewson the Sox today, even with out Tris Speaker, are stronger than the Sox who beat the Giants in 1912. Stahl's team was not a good "money team." After having the series against the Giants practically won with the standing three games against one. the 1912 Sox let the Giants bring it back to a tie and if the Giants had played any kind of ball at all New York would have won the series. Last Fall, the Red Sox showed mettle by coming back after losing the first game to Alexander and trouncing the Fhillies. Where the Red Sox have the edge over Brooklyn is in the pitching box. Carrigan does not have to look to any one man to bear the burdeu for he has five men who aro stars. Shortstop Is one of the most im portant cogs in a baseball machine and for this reason Ivan Olson, former Portland shortstop, - is a big item to Brooklyn. Olson is a "bear" in the pinch owing to his nerve and he may prove a world's series hero. He is bat ting about .255 while Scott of the Sox, his rival, is down about .216. Scott' is one of the best fielders in the business but lacks Olson's attack. Olson does not figure to do much slugging against the Red Sox pitchers, but he is more fortunate than some Na tional League shortstops would be in that he figures fairly well against the left-handers. Scott, of course, looks better against Brooklyn than he would against Phila delphia or Boston. He is a fast, bril liant and nervy ballplayer who holds a job on a championship team because of his fielding and defensive work. He was a tremendous help to Barry and worked with him as did Eddie Collins. Scott and Janvrin have shown that they can work together, too. Scott works better toward second than he does the other way. He has been criticized some in the past for failure to come in for slow, high bounders, but then he plays deep and relies upon Gardner to cut across and when Gardner does his jart. that ommission is not observed. Irialio Pessimistic About Game. MOSCOW. Idaho, Oct. 6. (Special.) The first football game of the season will be played here tomorrow between Oregon Agricultural College and the University of Idaho. The local team is an unknown quantity and the re ports of the coach are pessimistic, but students will have a "pep" meeting and endeavor to cheer the team as much as possible.

BOSTOX Is given the edge In the world's series by Portland fans. Here is what some Portland fans think of the big series starting this after noon on Braves' Field. Boston: Herman Politz I liked Detroit In the American League, but with it elimi nated Boston is my pick. A, C. Stubling Brooklyn, of course. Next to It the Spanish-American War Veteran "Fats." Hughie Hume Boston. Umpire Red Held I am strong for Robby and Brooklyn. But I think Boston will, win. Barry's absence from second may hurt. Joe Flanigan My old schoolmates Harry Hooper and Dutch Leonard are with Bostons I like the Red Sox and hope this pair stars In the series. Muff Bronson Boston towers over Brooklyn much like Jess TVillard does over the heavyweight field. Ed Dietrich I would have liked to 1 i s it 1 - 9 & , rw . ,-: i i i i f ' : J 1 .V i -i fa.,- i - As. s S v t " I ..IT i - V: r? X: '. r r Leonard, Boston. see Fielder Jones' Et. Eouls Browns win the American League flag, but now that Boston is entering the world's series, I am forced to like Carrigan's squad. It can hit and figures to win. Dow V. Walker and James O. Con vill Hoplitzel, Hooper, Lewis and Gainor ' lead an attack which Is the greatest In the game. It looks as if Boston will win the series. Ralph L. Brackett I predicted some time ago that Brooklyn would win the National League flag and I will stay with the Dodgers through the world's series. Ivan Olson's gall, you know. Ted Murphy Brooklyn. Walter and Judge W. W. McCredie Although we would like to see Brook lyn win because of Robinson. Olson, Jimmy Johnston and a few others, it does not appear in the cards that they will. We are forced to pick Boston to repeat. Following are some more Boston bet ters: George Roberts Grayson. Wayne Francis Lewis, Fred Norman Bay. Owon Summers. Al Bartholemy. Clyde Jiles Rupert. Wallace Chubby Chllders. Otto Nickelsen, Tom Long. George L. Baker, Judge W. N. Gatens. Henry S. West brook, James H. Lynch. Maurice R. Whitehead. R. A. Sawyer, Bill Linn. Brooklyn is admired by the follow ing: John J. HIggins. Paul Van Wyk, Jack Auterson, Dr. Calvin S. White. Ray Barkhurst. W. E. "Dick" Carlon, Archie Parrott and Walter B. Honeyman. M'GItAW TO REMAIN AS PILOT Leader of Giants Expects to Land Pennant Next Year. NEW YORK, Oct. 6. John J. Mc Graw will continue to manage the New York National League baseball club next year, despite any reports to tho contrary, says John B. Foster, secre tary of the club. "MoGraw already has gone over the 1 ' IS Os Walker. Washington HKh Tackle. Who Makri College lrbut With Oregon Agglea To day Against Idaho. plans for next year with President Hempstead," said Mr. Foster, "and has high hopes of leading the New York club to a pennant. His contract with the New York club has another year to run. and it is not fair to him or the club to have rumors spread that ha will not be with New York next year." Despite the roasting he gave them In the game with Brooklyn Tuesday, the players of the New York club are seeking McGraw to present to him a collection of Shakespeare's works, which they had purchased before his flare-up. There will be no public presentation ceremonies. Two Qualify for Finals. BELMONT. Mass.. Oct. 6. Miss Mildred Caveriy, of Philadelphia, and Miss Alexia Stirling, of Atlanta, Ga., won their way today into the final round of the National woman's golf championship tournament on the links of the Belmont Spring Country Club. The former defeated Miss Thomas Hucknell, of Forest Hills. N. Y.. by score of 7 and 6. while Miss Stirling eliminated Mrs. C C. Auchincloss. of Pippin Rock, two up. The final round will be played tomorrow. Chicago to Tackle Carleton North western to Play Lake Forest and Minnesota, Is. Pitted Against North Dakota. CHICAGO. Oct. 6. Practically every leading college football eleven in. the Central states will be swung Into ac tion tomorrow. All big nine teams, ex cept Indiana, have games carded, in cluding one of high importance to the b'lg nine and to the Missouri Valley conference, that between Illinois and Kansas at Urbana. The others are mainly practice games, though some stiff combats are looked for. Kansas should prove a rather diffi cult contender for Illinois so early in the season, though the Jayhawkers will enter the game somewhat the worse for Injuries. The Illinois eleven, minus most of Its stars of the last two years, will go Into battle in an unknown quantity. Chicago takes on Carleton, a team heralded as likely to prove a Tartar for the Maroons. The team Is com posed of veterans and is said to be es pecially primed to make & great show- I IjiUa nruBT 'n K-aw eleven, as usual. will open Northwestern's season, and South Dakota State should furnish more than a fair test for Minnesota, and perhaps the greatest Interest in the conference, aside from the Urbana game, will be centered in the Minneapo lis contest. Purdue. Wisconsin and Ohio State should find only some good practice in the opposition put up by their oppo nents, Depauw, Lawrence and Ohio Wesleyan. while Michigan faces rather a tough customer in Case. PORTLAND BOY IS CAPTAIN George Busch, Lincoln Graduate, Heads O. A. C. Freshmen. OREGON AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE. Corvallis. Oct, 6. (Special.) The freshman football candidates at the Oregon Agricultural College yesterday elected George Busch, ex-Lincoln High School luminary, of Portland, as their captain, and have begun practice ses sions under the guidance of Coach Everett May. The amount of material now avail able for the first-year term Is of the weakest sort and until the freshmen who are now wearing varsity uniforms are returned to the team It cannot pos sibly have much strength. However, with the addition of Beverly Anderson. "Tuffy" Conn. "Butts" Reardon. Charles Rose. Millard Webster. Whitney Gill. Hiatt. Ozbun Walker and Carl Lodell the yearlings will be able to present a good front. Games are being arranged with vari ous high school teams. The annual contests with the Universtly of Ore gon freshman eleven will not likely be played this season, due to the failure of the athletic authorities of the two institutions to agree on the question of eligibility of the players. W'ILIjAMETTE READY FOn FRAY Bis Send-Off Given Team Going to Play Oregon. WILLAMETTE UNIVERSITY. Salem, Or.. Oct. 6. (Special.) The varsity eleven will leave here in the morning for Eugene, where it will play Bex dek's team In the afternoon. Coach Mathews does not appear very optimistic in regard to the game, as he realizes that his team Is light and inexperienced. The past week has been a strenu ous one for the men, as- last Saturday's alumni game showed many weak places. It seems certain that neither Guerln. the big center, nor Halfback Teall will be able to start the game. Flegel's ankle and Taylor's shouMer are still giving them a great deal of trouble. The players who will make the trip are: Captain Flegel. Peterson, Rex ford, Tobie, Grosvenor, Booth. Proc ter. Carron, Womer. Oral lop. Rauch. Taylor. Dimick. Radcliff. Tasto. Jack son, Spress, Bailey, Guerln and Teall. A big rally was held tonight in the gymnasium, when the team was given a rousing sendoff. Whitman Freshman Strong. WHITMAN COLLEGE. Walla Walla. Wash.. Oct. 6 (Special.) In this year's freshman class Martin Hinden rlch. of Milton, Or., is by far the strongest man physically. In the strength tests which were conducted by Cyril Smith, assistant in physical training, this freshman lead the men of his class with a total of 1748 points. Director Smith is planning the exten sion of physical training work this year, including, besides regular ap paratus and floor work, wrestling, swimming and military drill. Some of the more advanced students will lead these classes. Missouri Valley Season Opens. KANSAS CITY. Oct, 6. With the games tomorrow all of the football teams of the Missouri Valley conference will have opened their 1916 season and the chase for the valley title, now held by Nebraska, will be fully under way. Chief interest centers in the Nebraska Drake game, with new coaches at each school and withf Nebraska having lost many of last season's stars. Kansas will go to Urbana tomorrow to play Illinois In one of the few contests be tween members of the big nine and the valley conference. " Football Games Today CHICAGO. Oct. 6.

Five of the leading Southern university elevens will compete upon gridirons In this section. The Uni versity of Virginia will play Yale, over which It triumphed by a score of 10 to 0 last year. Princeton will have North Carolina as an opponent; West Virginia Wesleyan meets Washington and Jef ferson: Western Maryland faces Ford ham, while the Army will meet Wash ington and Lee University. The West also will be represented, for Ohio Uni versity will oppose Syracuse in the stadium of the latter university. The records of the invading Southern and Western elevens last year show great scoring power and strong de fensive strength, and. as they have retained a majority of the 1915 veter ans, it is expected that the home com binations w'll be forced to uncover something more than practice football. Among the more important East versus East games. Harvard will meet Tufts: Pennsylvania will play Frank lin and Marshall: Navy faces George town: Colgate tackles Maine; Brown has Trinity as an opponent: Williams opposes Union; Columbia goes up against Hamilton; Pennsylvania state meets Bucknell. and Lafayette plays Swarthmore.
