President Expected to At

tend Oct. 22 Game at Philadelphia.

Beverly. Mass., Oct. 5. When the umpire calls "play ball" at the world's championship game ' on ' the American league grounds in Philadelphia, Oct. 22,

President Taft is very likely to be

among those present. The president is anxious to see one of these games, more especially since the Chicago club, part of which is owned by his brother Charley, will be upholding the honor of the National league. It would be possible for the president to stop oft on Oct. 18 to witness the game, but he is leaving Beverly on the 17th to keep an .engagement on the 18th in Washington. He will, therefore, in all probability miss that game. It is to be understood, also, that he does not promise to attend the game on Oct. 22. The situation is this: On Oct 21 the president will be in Washington. If on that day his brother Charles should appear and suggest that the president go up to Philadelphia for the world's championship game, and should ex-en insist upon it, Brother Charley being Mich a "persuading cuss," the president might find it difficult to resist the pleading, and the only way out of It would be to Jump -a train and hike to American league park in Philadelphia. The president's friends wouldn't be surprised if this should happen.
