BETTING LIGHT; HOPE HIGH Cicotte and Schupp, Great Stars of Day, Expected to Open; Fair Day Promised; Speculators Reap Unprecedented Harvest. vniCAtiO, Oct. S. The caldron Of baseball is aboil here tonight on the v of the world series between the Chicago American and the New York National League clubs. TZwrv ino disnt necessary for the most spectacu lar struggle or recent years has been contributed by clubs, players and fans. " me weatner man donates a day in Keeping with the importance of the occasion the opening game of the se ries at Comi3key Park tomorrow should result, in a battle which will equal in uriiiiance, tenseness and enthusiasm mat oi any game in diamond history. Players, magnates, ticket speculators and fans from the four corners of the country have been gathering on the chores of Lake Michigan for several days, and the stage is sat for what is expected to be the most dramatic cli " to the baseball season of 1917. To the cities concerned, especially Chicago, as the scene of the initial conflict, the Impending battle between the White Sox and the Ciants is of par amount importance. It ia the basis and source of unlimited controversy, wa- ajiu neariDurn. Weather Prediction Favorable. What the morrow holds for the fan And player in this respect is hard to forecast tonight. The weather predic tion for Saturday is fair and cool, but throughout today there were rain quails and high gales and tonight gray clouds hung low and November JiKe winds were sweeping across the President Comiskey was not appar ently worried by the indifferent sup Port of the local weather man, how- Jvr:.fop he P'aces absolute reliance In a little pocket almnnnf whfxh .,,. .. .. The weather for the opening game of 2. world series will be "fair." This bit of information was given by the Old Roman in the course of a tanning bee" in one of the offices at the White Sox Park todav. For years the president of the American League champions has relied upon the accuracy of this almanac. When spe cial days were given at the park, such as Frank Chance day, in honor or the former Chicago National league idol, who came here as manager of the New York Yankees, the little book said 'clear and warm," and when a day was set aside for Ed Walsh last year the little book again was consulted for a date promising favorable conditions, and in both cases the weather was all that could be desired. bis that in the aggregate the total raciiea into the thousands of dollars. out mere were no records of either large lnaividual or pool wagers. Bettlnar Light; forecasts )r). If betting was scarce forecasts and predictions as to the outcome or the initial game or the series a. whole made up for any deficiency in this respect. The fans of the competing wuus uiu noi hesitate to VOi their opinions in no uncertain terms. Play ers, managers and magnates. while more conservative, stin let it be known that they believed their respective clubs would quickly establish a lead which would indicate' the relative strength or the two combinations. Manager Clarence Rowland, speaking for the Chicago club and players, said: "This series means a great deal to mcago ana we nave not left a wheal Unturned to bring the world's Cham pionship to Comiskey. We. realize that Giants are a real team, but the White Sox had to battle all season In our own league with three or four clubs that wera as touch or toucher .a. V. .. . 1 . I ..

From far points In all sections of the country thirty-third degree base ball fans have come to witness what they confidently predict will be the greatest world series in many sea sons. The hotels are thronged tonight wim inese . invaders rrom distant ter ritory, and late comers are having dif ficulty in securing accommodations. Their troubles are as nothing com pared to those of persons who purchase tickets to the game at this lt hour It Is doubtful if in the long history of woria series contests the pasteboards necessary to sain admission to the parks have ever been so scarce. For once in their tempestuous career the ticket speculators are forced to see prospective purchasers with fists full of bills seek vainly for the cards which will on Saturday separate the chosen and those who must remain outside the walla. Those fortunate speculators who have been able to secure tickets are reaping ft golden harvest almost-. the equal of that gathered by the lucky and shrewd Investors who picked up "war bride" stocks in the early days of the Euro pean war. Between them and the fan who would see the series at any price more is little or no arguing tonight. 100,000 Want to See Opener. Once a vendor is found who holds the "open sesame" to Comiskey field the transaction or parting him from his coupons is a matter of but a moment in ws. lor me ian is apparently "'"ins to pay any amount. Five dol lar seats for the three games with a face value of 115 sold as high as $75. and even these figures are likely to be surpassed if the weather is fair tomor row. It was estimated by a local baseball authority tonight that there would have been no difficulty in selling fully 100,000 seats for the opening game. Thousands of orders have been turned back, and President Comiskey said to night that he feared that he had lost a host of friends due to his inability to supply all with tickets for the series. Those who could not secure seats in the ordinary way" paid the speculators their own prices, if money was no ob ject. If they could not meet the latters' flemands they might be certain of gain lng a choice seat in the unreserved sec tion of the stands. Ticket Line Forma Early. At the hour when the staid citizen was homing his way to dinner the lines were already forming outside the por tals of White Sox field. Equipped with chairs, blankets, lunches and other comforts for Inner and outer man. the fans began to gather. Boys and young men pre dominated, but here and there could be "een a woman or an elderly man who bore the discomforts of the long wait with the same apparent nonchalance of their more youthful companions. Venders, quick to take advantage of the situation, appeared with lunch stands, and sandwiches, coffee, cush ions and tobacco were soon on sale, and business was brisk throughout the hdurs as midnight approached. Although confidence was rampant among the camp followers or the two teams there was little evidence of heavy wagering. Most of the betting was confined to sums ranging from S5 to $25 and these amounts were placed ext or close to even money.
