A. P. Dispatch) New York, Oct. 7. Sunrise on this, the day before the opening of the world's championship baseball series in New. York, found more than 500 men and boys at the polo grounds. Sitting around bonfires they had waited all night for the first chance at the 400 upper gtandstand seats to be placed on sale at 9 a.m. Bach person will be allowed to buy two At the sale of seats tomor- row only one ticket will be sold to a person. This is an eleventh hour rul- ing designed to defeat speculators. In the hotel lobbies, here are gather- ed hundreds of men notable in the tvaseball world, among them Presi- dents Lynch and Johnson of the two big leagues and August Hermann of Cincinnati, who constitute the Su- preme Court of baseball. They had an informal meeting scheduled for today at which they planned a final supervision of arrangements for the big games. Pl yers and, managers from all but hree teams in each jeague also are gathered there Those kept away are Chicago, St. Louis and Philadelphia, who will engage it a series of their own this week. All are confident that the coming series will eclipse all past contests for the world s championship, not exeepting last year s: games, wh ch far surpassed all former contests. Chairman was. specially enthusiastic- The advance orders which have poured im for seats both in New York and Boston have been enough to indicate that with good weather capacity crowds will see all the con- tests, said Mr. Hermann, and the combined fields will accommodate more fans than at any previous con- test. It promises to be a great ser- ies and I would not be surprised to see it go-seven games before a de- cision is reached. Although the Giants have an ex- hibition game arranged for this af ternoon with the New York Ameri- cans for the entertainment of Uncle Sam's blue-jackets, the day will mainly be one of rest for the world's series men. It is understood that Mathewson, Tesreau and Mar- qusrd, who will do tthe brunt of the pitching for the Giants, will have a final workout. Larry Doyle's slight injury suffered at Brooklyn on Fri- day left no ill-eflects and the New York captain will surely take part.in the big games. The Hoston Red Sox led by Man- ger Jake Stahl, are expected to ar- rive at sundown and put in' good night's rest. The arrival of out-of-town news- Paper men included most of the best known baseball writers n the coun try. They established headquarters at the Hotel Imperial and directly across from the Martinique, the Bos- ton delegation hoisted its colors. Mayor Fitzgerald and the Red Sox supporters are expected on a night train and many automobile parties have booked reservations. Betting odds remain approximately the same as three weeka ago with the Red Sox supporters willing to give odds of 10 to 8. The weather bureau hopes to pro- vide errorless weather for the opening game. Its official forecast for Toesday is Fair and- colder, moderate Variable winds. Tt could be several degrees colder, however, without spoiling the game, Today was clear and crisp with promise of a moderate warm afternoon. Boston, Oct. 7. The Red Sox tried their batting eyes and their fielding ability in light practice at Fenway Park this morning prior to their de- parture for New York later in the day. It was their last day of pre- paration for the world s champion- ship aseball series with the New York Giants, the opening game of which will be played tomorrow. The players are in fine form.

New York, Oct. 7 The crowning event of the professional baseball season is at hand. The serfes for the world s championship between the New York Giants, twice champions of the National League, and the Bos- ton Red Sox, winners of this year s pennant in the American League, will begin on the Polo Grounds. in this elty tomorrow. Today the umpires, official scorers and respective own- ers of the contesting clubs met with the National Commission to receive instructions and perfect the final de- tails for the series, which will con- tinue until one of the teams has won four of the seven games scheduled. The games will alternate daily be- tween this city and Boston. It is scarcely an exaggeration to say that, with a large proportion of the public at least, the presidential ini campaign now on will. drop, ond. place in interest whil world s series is being fought out. From the hour that the umpires cries Play Ball, tomorrow until the championship flag is cinched by one or the other of the contesting teams, the tens of thousands fans, from Hudson's Bay tothe City of. Mexico, from Coney Island to Manila, will crowd around .the tick- ers, scan the bulletin boards and buy the newspaper extras. Probably no series that has ever been played in baseball will attract the attention this one will, and prob- ably no series, the weather being suitable, will equal it in attendance. And what a time those twenty-three eligible Giants and twenty-two Red Sox will have when the financial me- lon is sliced after the series is com- pleted. The Polo Grounds have been put in shape to accomodate nearly 50,000 spectators, while Fenway Park the new home of the Boston Amer. ieans, will take care of at least 40- 000 and probably.more. As the pricet are more than doubled at thess games, the recelpts for the post-sea- son series this year should greatly exceed those of any like series in the past, and the winning players are pretty sure of making a rake-off of from 2,500 to 3,000 each. if the series should go to.the limit the pro- fits of the club owners should .be enormous. As to what the series will bring forth the partisan fans have been keyed up to a high pitch trying to convince themselves and others why their favorite team cannot lose. In view of the fact that the Glants are yeterans, even when it comes to con- testing for the world s flag, while the Boston Red Sox might almost be termed novices in comparison, it is somewhat surprising that so many newspaper critics and others well versed in the national game-should pick the Hub players to win. The av- erage New Yorker, of course, can see nothing to it but McGraw's team, but it is a noticeable and si that around the Broadws other places where sporting men con- grogate there appears to be a ready taker for every bet offered on the Giants. Whichever way the series goes, there is alrendy one thing that seems certain, and that Is that a lar- ger amount of money will change hands on the result than has ever been the case before.

WHAT THE RED SOX ARE UP AGAINST IN WORLD S SERIES Christy Mathewson, the star piteher of the Giants and generally r gardd as the greatest of all pitchers, is expected to be the mainstay of the Giants. He has been in four post-season series and was tever defeated in one of thore games until the Athletics beat him tast fall. Mathewson's success 18 due to his perfect control and his wonderful brain. He is the dean of all the pitchers who will appear in the world s series, So far this season Matty has won 22 games and lopt 12, He has-been used in 42 games and in many of these he saved games for other pitchers, It is likely that he will pitch the opening game of the series. Charles Tesreau, one of the Giant stars, is the largest man physically now playing baseball with the possible exception of Larry McLean. Tes- reau has had wonderful success for his first year in the big league. He has won 18 games and has lost 6. He has been used in 82 contests, Tes- lt;Teau s success 4s due to his marvellous spitball and his great speed. He hasn't the eomtro of Mathewson, but the fact that his delivery is oc- casionally uneatrain makes him all the more effective when he does get the ball over. He is of a phlegmatic disposition and no amount of ex- citement ever disturbs him. As the Red Sox do not like spitballera it is Mkely that T sreay will be used frequently. Rube Marquard, the star left hander of the Glants and holder of the . World's record for consecutive victories, is the center of much specula- tion for the world s sories. After winning nineteen straight he has gone oft form. When In condition Marquard s left handed shots will be a power against the left handed hitters of Boston. He has as much speed as any pitcher In the world and for a left hander has remarkable con- trol. For this Season Marquard has a record of 26 victories and 10 deeats, Lasc year he led the National Leaguef. Against the Athletics Marquard was not very effective, but that does not necessarily mean MATHEWSON LIKELY BRAGG CAPTURES - GRAND PRIX RACE) CHOICE FOR STARTER Mechanic Badly Injured in Final Announce.

New York, Oct. 7 Until a few minutes before the opening of the world s series nobody will know Man- ager McGraw's choice for pitcher in the first game.

Most of the New York players believe that oe will be Mathewson, Bes gr it condition and ts con- ceded to be the steailiest pitcher of the team.

So far this season he has won 33 games and has lost 6. In the post-season series between the Giants and the Red Sox four years ago he was beaten and also scored victory. He s noted for his wonderful speed, his most effective delivery having been dubbed the smokeball. He also has a good curve and a rmarkable slow ball. R. Collins, the only left hander of the Red Sox, who is expected to be an obstacle in th way of the Gtants, is a terror to left handed batters throughout the American League. The Giants do not relish southpaws and for that reason t 1s belfev d that Collins will be worked as fre- quently as Wood. Collins has a great curve and for a left hander has wonderful control, During the season now closing he has won 15 games and lost 7. He has been a great resorve man, how ver, and has been used in 25 games, Bedlent, one of the star pitchers of the Red Sox, is not a veteran by any means, though he is considered one of the coolest and most reliable men on the staff in times of trouble, This is shown by the fact that he has been used in, 40 games. The official records credit him with having won 15 games and lost nine. That does not:take into account the number of times that he hag gone in and saved games for other pitchers.

It is evi- dent that Boston enthusiasts intend to: come down to New York in great numbers for the first game. The New York club has received a request from Mayor Fitsgkerald of Boston for 300 seats for the opening game, and it is understood the Mayor in- tends to lead a band of American South Wales.
