BASEBALL'S EPIC
EVENT TOMORROW
.Brooklyn and Cleveland Start
World's Series.
SPEAKER PLAYS IN FIELD
Climax of Strenuous League Race
.Finds Athletes In Good Shape
for Title Games.
NEW TORK. Oct. 3. The world'B
fries of 1920. blu ribbon event of
baseball, will be ushered In at Kb-
betta field, Brooklyn, tomorrow.
The contesting teams, Brooklyn and
Cleveland, champions respectively of
the National and American leagues,
are perhaps more evenly matched than
world's aeries contenders generally
are.
The expose before the grand Jury in
Chicago of the crooked deals in the
world's series of last year apparently
has had no effect on the coming games
other than to make the players of
both teams more determined than ever
to make the contests a true test of
relative merits.
Sea Sales Set Record.
Reports from both cities are that
the applications for reserved seats
far outnumber the seats to be dis
robed of. and with the unreserved
eeuts to be sold on the days the games
are played, it will be a case of first
come, first served. Few fans resident
outside of Brooklyn and Cleveland
will find It any easy task to obtain
tickets.
The meeting of Brooklyn and
Cleveland will bring together two
teams developed and managed by
leaders of entirely different schools
of baseball. Wilbert Kobinson, man
ager of the Brooklyn team, is a grad
uate of the Baltimore Orioles of the
early "90s, a team that in its day was
in a class by itself. Robinson, how
ever, has been constantly connected
Kith baseball since the days of the
Orioles and has kept pace with the
game and thus has been able to de
velop his team in accordance with
what he deemed the best methods of,
the old school of baseball as well as
what appeared to him the best points
of the modern system. Tris Speaker,
manager" of the Clevelanders, is re
garded generally as one of the great
est outfielders baseball has ever
known. lie is the only playing man
ager in any major league and it is
sufficient testimony to his ability as
a leader to have developed in leas
than two years an aggregation of
players that was able to win for
Cleveland its first championship in
a major league circuit.
Campaign Ilaa Been Hard.
When the teams take the field to
morrow they will be in as good con
dition physically as it is possible for
two teania of athletes to be after the
strenuous campaigns they have been
through. The races in both leagues
were not decided as early as usual,
Brooklyn winning the National league
pennant less than a week before the
close of the season and Cleveland
capturing the American league title
only one day before the close of the
season.
It Is almost certain that Speaker
will call on his pitching ace, Jim
Bagby. In the opening game, unless
Stanley Coveleskie exhibits the better
form. Manager Robinson will start
either Marquard or Smith, with the
chances favoring the former because
of his good pitching in recent games.
An interesting feature of the series
will be that for the first time in a
world's series two brothers will ap
pear as opponents. They are Jimmy
Johnston, Brooklyn third baseman,
and Doo Johnston, Cleveland first
baseman.
"Several of the players noticed
how the score board affected the
others," he added, "and we felt' all
along that these men were regulat
ing their play according to the play
of other teams."
No announcement has been given
as to whether any of the White Sox
will be called before the grand Jury
when it reconvenes on Tuesday to
continue the baseball inquiry.
CLUB, OREGON NUT MEET
arcx,T-o3i.n receives ec-
CEXE REQUEST FOR DATE.
Local Fans Surprised When State
ITnlversity Asks for Game on
Portland Field.
That thera Is a possibility of the
Multnomah Amateur Athletic club
eleven clashing with the University
of Oregon team next Saturday after
noon on ths Winged M gridiron was
made known yesterday when Harry
Dorman, manager of the clubmen,
announced that he had received a
telegram from Eugene asking for
a game. This announcement came as
a surprise to football fans as It was
understood at the start of the sea
son that Oregon and the Winged M
cquad would not meet this year.
The telegram stated that the Uni
versity of Oregon team wanted to
meet the clubmen here on October
18, a week from Saturday, but as
the local squad goes to Corvallis to
tangle with the Oregon Agricultural
college on that date it would be im
possible for Manager Dorman to
close Oregon for October 16.
The manager of the Winged M ag
gregation immediately wired back
that the only available date open
on which the University of Oregon
team could be brought here would
be this Saturday, but at a late hour
last night he had received no reply
as to whether or not this arrange
ment was agreeable to the Lemon
Yellow coaching staff.

Cleveland Gets First Flag in
42 Years' Playing.
TOMAHAWKS MADE SHAflP
American League Champions Rally
After Chapman's Death and
Rise From Third Place.
CLEVELAND, Oct. 3. Thousands
of Cleveland baseoall fans were
downtown tonight to welcome Tris
Speaker and the Cleveland Indians,
winners of the American league pen
nant, when they arrived home from
Detroit.
James C. Dunn, president of the
Indians, today telegraphed Manager
Speaker as follows:
"My sincere congratulations to you
and all members of the team. I am
sharpening the tomahawks and I am
sure we will scalp the Dodgers. You
fought fairly and squarely and de
serve the championship."
Cleveland beta First Flag.
For 43 years Cleveland has been
represented in some major league,
the last 20 years in the American
league, but not until this season did
any team bring home the pennant.
In 1892 the Cleveland team, led
by Pat Tebeau, finished first in the
last half of the season, the cam
paign being divided, Boston winning
the first half. In the post-season
series Boston won.
In 1908 Cleveland lost the Amer
ican league pennant by half a game.
Through al these" years Cleveland
fans remained steadfastly loyal to
the team.
When Ray Chapman, the team's
star shortstop, was killed In New
York last August the Indians slumped
badly. It took nearly two weeks for
them to recover from the shock. Then
they were told by Manager Speaker
that they "must carry on for Chap
pie's sake." They took heart and made
a spurt from thrrd place which ended
in winning the pennant at Detroit
yesterday,
40.O0O Seat Requests Received.
E. S. Barnard, business manager of
the team, today announced arrange
ments for the sale of tickets to the
Cleveland games. Nearly 40,000 re
quests for seats were received by
maiL The 16,624 reserved seats have
been allotted in pairs to fans who
sent in written applications. Nine
thousand general admission tickets at
Jl each will be sold at the park dally
when the gates open.
The ticket notice allotments eacn
will contain a card bearing a serial
number and a place for signature and
address. The recipient will bring
this notice to the park, where the
number, signature and address on the
card will be compared with the num
ber, signature and address on the
original application. If these cor
respond the fan will receive eight
reserved seat tickets for the series
allotted to him. If he draws box
seats he must pay $52.80 for the eight
tickets, 36 each and 60 cents war tax.
Reserved seats other than boxes will
cost $26.40, $35.20 and 344, according
to location. . This covers the price of
two seats at each of the four games
and includes war tax.
IXDIAXS LEAD IX BATTIXG
Offensive Strength Comparison
Based on Unofficial Records.
1
NEW YORK, Oct. 3. A comparison
of the offensive strength of the con
tending teams in the world's series,
based upon unofficial records of the
season's work, indicates that Brook
lyn will enter the big 'games at a
Blight disadvantage compared with
Cleveland. The Indians as a team
have accumulated a batting average
of .303 for the season, while that of
the Superbaa Is .279.
Taking the regular players who are
likely to appear In the world's series,
the unofficial records show that the
Cleveland infield has a. batting aver
age of .281 while the inner defense of
the Superbas has batted for .2S4. The
Cleveland outfielders as a combina
tion have batted for .32S and the
Brooklyn fly chasers for .304.
O'Neill for Cleveland and Miller for
Brooklyn probably will do all the
catching and in th(s department th
Indians would be stronger at bat as
O'Neill has out-hit Miller during the
season by 44 points, .326 to .282.
The question that will have to be
answered, in the world's series is
"Will Cleveland" be able to main
tain its average in offensive work
against the strong pitching staff of
Brooklyn?"
Baseball critics generally agree
that Manager Robinson has the
strongest and best balanced staff of
pitchers in either league, having no
less than six men. each of whom is
capable-of -taking his regular turn in
the box.
Bagby and Cctvelskie have done the
brunt of the pitching for Cleveland,
with Caldwell as the next best per
former. It may be' possible that
Manager Speaker will call upon Wal
ter Mails, the young left-hander who
has made a remarkable showing since
joining the Indians late in August.
ARLETA HONORS DOUBTED
TRIPLE TIE OP CLASS AA TEAMS
IS CITED.
Cberub Ixwry of Hesse-Martin Club
Holds His Squad Cot Some
Raw Deals.
PORTLAND, Or.. Oct. 2. (To the
Sporting Editor.) If you can find
room in your columns, may I ask that
you "run" the following?
I read the article in the capers to
day which states that the Arleta
baseball team, champions of the AA
league, are to go to Sherwood Sunday
to settle the championship of the
Portland Baseball association, and
with a good many others I ask, "How
do they get that way?" The Crown
Willamette, Arleta V. O. W.'s and
Hesse-Martins were tied at the end
of the playing season for jfhe cham
pionship. It was decided to play two
games, the wlnnr of the first to play
the odd team in the second game. By
the toss of a coin, the Hesse-Martin
team became the odd one, and after
the smoke had cleared away, the Iron
workers were annouifced champions.
Not to be outdone by several of the
other managers of the league. Man
ager Brooks of the Woodmen protest
ed the game between his camp and
the Papermakers, and the protest was
upheld by a vote of 7 to 2. Now no
tice, if you please, that the protest
w'as acainst an umpire's decision,
which is covered by rule " 65 of th
national playinjj rules, which slates'
that no decision shall be questioned.
However, what I wish to emphasize is
the fact that the protest was approved
by seven.votes out of nine, or. In other
words, about one-third of the mem
bers at present in the association.
President Routledge called me on
the phone during the following week,
asking me if I would play the Sher
wood team at Sherwood the following
Sunday, and donate the net proceeds
to the association coffers, and 1 agreed
to this. Upon our arrival at Sherwood
Sunday we found that the grounds
were too wet to play upon, and being
set back between 2Z and $30 on the
trip, half of which was met by the
Sherwood management, I decided that
I might make up a part of this by
staging a game with the-Arleta squad,
which was at Columbia park, to claim
a forfeited game a play-over) from
the Crown-Willamette team. The Ar
leta boys hung one on us. our first
defeat In 12 among leaj?ue teams,
and thereupon Manager Brooks claims
the AA title, in which action he is
upheld by the league heads.
Regardless of how the league acts
or fails to act In the matter. I feel
that I owe it to the team which has
stood with me during he past season
to put the matter in print for the
semi-pro. fans of the city to digest,
and I wish to state that th Hesse-.
Martin adherents are not the only
ones who look upon the Ironworkers
as the rightful holders of the title.
The Ironworkers have collected a
total of 192 runs and 161 hits, against
their opponents' 77 runs and 71 hits
in the 30 games played this season,
losing eight of these games, only two
games by more than one run. I be
lieve that this is a record for Port
land semi-pro teams! and we have
met every team which has asked for a
game. Thanking you for your cour
tesy and the necessary space, I am
very truly. CHBP.UB LOWKY,
Manager Hesse-Martin Baseball Club.

EVENTS THIS AITERXOOS,
Multnomah County Fair Speed Pro
gramme Carries Holders of
World's Records.
All is set for the auto races jwhlch
will open the Multnomah county fair
speed programme this afternoon at
Gresham in which a dozen dirt track
stars will compete for honors in a
seven-event programme of profession
al races.
This is the first time for many years
that any of the well known national
and International stars will be seen
in Portland vicinity. Larry p. Stone
the 1920, world's dirt track champion
is entered in four of the afternoons
events, being pitted against Jimmie
Costa, the Italian road race champion
and Smiling "Swede" Anderson, the
Michigan . speed demon in a special
three heat challenge event, with lib
eral purses for each of the heats and
a special bonus for the race winner.
Stone is accorded a ruling favorite
due to the fact his Duesenberg" No. 8
is the holder of seven world's records
in the half-mile dirt course. The
Gresham course is a half-mile oval.
Costa is a daredevel dirt track
racer who asks quarter from no other
race pilot and with the fast driving
Anderson on the job, prospects look
bright for a well contested series of
races.
Paul Clancy, the northwestern dirt
track champion is looked upon, as a
strong contender in the Pacific Sweep
stakes, which is the long distance
free-for-all ifl which seven entries are
slated to go. In this event in ad
dition to Stone, Costa and Anderson
will also be P.ountree and Sarles of
the famous Rajo team and Jack Wat

Thanks to the rain, or again per

series from Seattle, taking three out
of five games played in the Puget
sound metropolis. Even if it hadn't
rained Portland might have been suc
cessful in taking the final brace of
games. A few of McCredle's players,
principally the twirlers, must have
been on intimate terms with goat
glands. Judging from the Dace they
set in the north the past week. After
the miserable ball here It would have
been a relief for the local fans to
glimpse the team hitting it up, but
when the series was switched, they
lost that opportunity.
Vernon and Los Angeles each broke
even yesterday, which left the dis
tance between them the same, a dif
ference of ten points. Vernon slumped
and dropped a series to the Seals, and
as a result; San Francisco ia now
right up amongst them in the race
for the pennant.
Salt Lake doomed itself to. hardly
anything better than fourth place by
dropping six out of seven games to

the championship again going a glim

THAM' GETS BAIT OF
ANOTHER FIGHT HERE
Bobby Evans Wants to Match
Negro Again if He Wins.
HERMAN IS FAVORITE SON
Toughey Wing Starts Fight ins" to
Regain Follow ins and Bait
ties Train Hard.
BY DICK SHARP.
If Sam Langford manages to stow
"Tiny" Herman away when they tan
gle over the ten-round route Wednes
day night Matchmaker Bobby Kvans
will make an effort to get one of the
best heavyweights in the game to
meet the Boston bumper later in the
season. What l.angford may do or
has done in bouts around the circait
with his brethren is an entirely dif
ferent thing than when he steps in the
ring against the "white hopes." It is
a battle or rather, has been, at any
time that Sam has entered the squared
circle in the past againet the leading
white heavyweights.
"Tiny" Herman may not yet be n
polished boxer or a knock-'em-dead
scrapper, but when the qualifications
of the rest of the heavies in this part
of the country are gone over none
shape up to those owned by Chet Mc
Intyre's big mauler. It has been a
long time since Oregon boxing fans
have been able to boast of a real good
heavyweight born and raised in these
climes and the followers of the game
are pulling for Herman. In the short
space of time that he has been box
ing he has showed more natural abil
ity than any big men turned out in
this state in years.
Fau See l.angford Work.
Several hundred boxing fans were
on hand at the armory yesterday to
get a peep at Langford in action. Her
man did not arrive from .Tacoma, but
is expected today and will work out
this afternoon at 2 o'clock. Langford
will take the floor at 3 o'clock for
his last workout befor entering the
ring Wednesday night.
Hairing a little surplus weight
around the waist regions, Langford
looks to be in excellent condition and,
in fact, says that he is in better shape
than he has been in some time.
Evidtntly Weldon ("Toughey")
Wing meant it when he said he was
through boxing and" was going in
and fight hereafter. In his dally
training sessions at the armory with
Sam Langford and other boxers Wing
has been throwing caution to the
winds and tearing in.
Wing Slarl. lighting.
When he stacks up with Young Sam
Langford Wednesday night "Toughey"
will have a battle on his hands, and
it will behoove him to do some -step
ping in and around if he wants to
beat the ban Francisco boy and re
gain his former standing in the com
m unity. Although a boy with a
strong following, winch has stuck
with him through thick and thin.
Wing has never been a big card with
the ma.s of fans who attend the box
ing shows. The only reason for this
has been the fact that he has pre
ferred to outbox his opponents in
stead of going in and trying to finish
them. Kven when he has had boys
practically out he has held back and
been contented with Just jabbing
away.
