All the crazy fans don't live in
Gotham. The same goes for Philadelphia. Lumping the interest that grips
the baseball "bugs" of these eastern
commonwealths, ye casual newspaper
reader would fain believe the sun is going to rise and set only on the
world's series. Far be it from so. A peek at the mob scenes attending the
initial Bale of tickets for the local com
bat beginning tomorrow with the Sox
and Cubs opposing tells a different tale.
Advance reports from Comiskey
park indicate a tremendous demand for
reservations. The sale starting at both the south and west side parks at noon yesterday quickly dispelled any doubt that may have existed as to the loyalty of the Chicago rooters. At 4 o'clock
in the afternoon Harry Grabiner of Comlskey's office announced every reserved seat sold for the opener tomorrow," with few tickets remaining for
the third contest, which will be staged, weather permitting, Sunday on the White Sox field. Despite the fact Sat
urday afternoon is no longer a half-
holiday, the call for tickets to the sec
ond combat, slated for the Cub grounds
Saturday, also augurs well for a capacity crowd.
Hundreds of regular patrons of the
south side grounds were turned away empty handed yesterday with the news
that the slates were clean as regards
games No. 1 and 4. The general admission sale for each game will start early each day, however probably at
10:30 tomorrow, although this point
will be officially determined today. At the Sox park preparations are being made to seat 32,000 persons, and In the event of an overflow, which is antici
pated, there will be ample room on the
field for 10,000 more.

$21,000 WAGERED ON THE MACKMEN
Pittsburgh, Oct. 12. Thayer Torreyson, a former noted professional baseball player, left Pittsburgh today for New York to attend the world's series. He took with him $21,000. He will wager this amount that the Philadelphia Athletics defeat the New York Giants for the world's championship. Before leaving Pittsburgh Torreyson placed a bet of 11.000 that he will accept all 'the -bets he can find. He will even convert his $2,000 worth of diamonds into cash to get more money if his present roll runs out, he says. Torreyson is considered one of the greatest authorities on baseball In the United States. Pittsburgh-beta on the Athletics were scarce , until he began placing his money on them. Then the betting tide changed. Torreyson says he would run the risk of betting his clothes and walking home from New York, so sure )k" he that the Athletics will win.
also retained the ball at the close of the second period only twenty years from the goal to which it had been brought by a billiant fake forward pass, McKenna to Wlstrand. After the first half both sides seemed greatly rested but no advantage was discernible as both sides were held for downs repeatedly and finally with th ball on th third down Whalen kicked and O'Connel sped down the line to tackle the visitor who received It. However the ball eluded the South Chicago boy's
hands and O'Connell secured it after
which he sprinted forty-five yards with
it and planted It squarely behind the
goal posts. GoaL. was then kicked.
Near the close of the third period both teams seemed tired but at the start of the fourth and final period . the Monarchs commenced a deadly assault and advanced th ball to within two and one half yards of goal where the Anchors rallied and gained the ball by holding the Monarchs for downs consecutively. The Anchors have only words of praise for the Monarchs as the visitors caused them much worrlment while the game was in progress owing to their splendid forward passing and the brilliant Interference which they showed.
Had the Monarchs scored while they
were so near goal they would have bee a the first team to score since the organl! ration of the Anchors .four years ago. The Anchors lineup was as follows: Wlstrand. left end; Haugh, left guard; Hill, right end; Qulnn, center; Pitzele, right guard; Gibbons, right tackle; Ke-egan, right end; McKenna, quarter back; Whalen, left half-back; French, full-back; O'Connell.-ght half-back. Substitutes Darrow for Wlstrand and H. DJerf for Keegan. The East Chicago Anchors wish to thank their many friends especially among the- business men for the lib- .
erality wrlch they showed at the occasion of the dance given by the club. , Next Sunday the Anchors play the strong" "Chicago Culvers' who come here- highly recommended and a good game is assured to all who attend. Admission 15 cents. Ladies free. The Anchors would like to hear from the Hammond Maroons and the Indiana Harbor Gophers and from other good teams In tjhe vicinity. Games can be secured by writing to R. Barenie, manager Anchors football team at his address corner 148th ami Baring avenue. East Chicago.

GAME
East Chicago, Ind., Oct. 11. (Special.) The East Chicago Anchors playing gilt edge football defeated the strong So. 'Chicago Monarchs by the score of 6 to 0 at Sawmill Park, Sunday, before four hundred loyal rooters. The matcii was fast and exciting and not a moments dull play marred the game. It was in all probability one of the prettiest and cleanest matches ever seen at the park as neither side seemed to have any advantage over the other until nea.the close of the third period when O'Connell scored . a touchdown after which a goal was kicked giving the Anchors the game. At the end of the first period the ba!l was In the local's possession near the center of the field while the Anchors
