The Other Alley
BY BILL BAILEY. Clarence Rowland will be pitted against the autocrat of the diamond when the Sox and the Giants meet in their battle tor the baseball supremacy of the world. McGraw is just that the autocrat of the diamond. But that doesn't mean that he will outgeneral Rowland; it does not mean that, his strategy will prevail; it doesn't even mean that the
J Giants will have even a minute advantage because of the presence or
he direction of McGraw.
, You can't compare the two managers. Their methods of securing the. same results are so divergent that when you have finished you have Mc
Graw and you have Rowland; you are exactly where you started and

ity in the play of his men. Every pitched ball is directed by the Little Napoleon or the Little Nopoleon, depending upon whether or not. you admire him. Every time that you see the hit and run tried you may know that it was commanded by the man haunched on the coaching line; every time that a steal or second or third is -attempted you may know it was by his command. No play is conceived save- in the mind of McGraw; he is in supreme command, exercises his rights and is an autocrat in all that the term implies. Directs Every Pitch National League players will tell you that McGraw signals for everv ball pitched by his hurler. They will tell you to watch him as he sits upon the bench for confirmation. The program is this the catcher receives the ball, tosses it. to the twirler. then turns his head toward the New York bench. It is at this instant, that the receiver is instructed, by a sign of course, to ask for a curve, a fast on.p, a slow ball. The running game is the one that McGraw loves and the one that he plays. And he picks his men that this method may be effective. McGraw doesn't care especially for the smart ball player but he does dpmand ability to hit, to run, to be able to throw accurately. He wants the men mechanically proficient, and then molds them to his will. Likes Hit-and-Run The hit-and-run in the favorite mode of attack employed by the Giants.
McGraw may switch in the world's! series, expecting the opposition to he j looking for this style and prepared to! block it, but in the regular games I that constitute a season's schedule he ; never bunts earlier than the fifth or j the sixth inning. He is willing to toss !
away a lone run that he may risk piling up a lead that will insure him victory. The McGraw system is to attack viciously; to fight desperately; to take long chances with one man directing the play. Which accounts for the fact that McGraw always has a proficient team, but seldom a smart one. By assuming all the responsibility he removes it from the shoulders of his men and by relying solely upon his own brain robs the players of their initiative.

SLICKERS CAN'T SLIP ANYTHING ON THIS COMISH Commission Gets Evidence Pasteboard Crooks Plan Big Haul on Series.
CHICAGO, Oct 3. The 1917 model counterfeiter doesnt bother with such trifles as $20 bills or $10 gold pieces. He goes right out and tries to bunco the public with phony world series tickets, according to the nation commission. The commission let the wide world know today that the slickers can't put anything over on it. "Baseball patrons are warned against purchashing world series tickets except through the, regular channels," read an announcement by the commission. "It has been reported that a plan for counterfeiting world series tickets is under way. "This information is believed to be correct." The commission also admitted its ability to Sherlock Holmes the festive speculator. "Plans have been formulated whereby the management can trade tickets that have been resold," it announced. "The management reserves the privilege of refusing admission to any person on tickets purchased from speculators." For the information of th3 commission, speculators are said to have been offering grandstand seats in downtown hotels last night for the insignificant price of $35. The city council last night passed a special ordinance against ticket scalpers and added a resolution instructing the White Sox to lam the suffing out of the Giants for the honor and glory of Chicago.
One bug offered to wager $10 against $100 that no White Sox pitcher would go a full game against the Giants and 25 to 1 is offered that neither team will win four straight. A few gamblers have offered 2 to 1 that Schupp will not start the first game for the Giants. The Sox remain
6 to 5 favorites to win the opening; game with Clcotte pitching.
Newsboy Lays $2,000 on Rowland's Men
CHICAGO, Oct. 3. Betting on the forthcoming world's series, so far as Chicago fans are concerned, thus far has been limited almost entirely to conversation. But one bet of consequence has been reported and most of the wagers are of the freak varfety. Willie Pope, newsboy, has wagered $2,000 even with L. K. Krewer. Pope taking the White Sox end. This is the largest bet on record here. Even money bets on the series are offered.

DON'T TRIFLE WITH BLOOD DISORDERS BUT GET RID OF THEM QUICKLY
Cleanse the System of All Impurities.
Watch your blood supply closely,.
be ever on the alert lest some impurity creep in which will make inroads upon your general health. For upon the condition of your blood depends largely whether or no.t you are to enjoy that robust and splendid vitality to which you are entitled. Some of the most painful and serious ailments are diseases of the blood, which could be avoided by alert and prompt attention. Rheumatism comes from a tiny germ which gets its foothold when the blood supply is impure and run down. Catarrh is another disease which science has shown is more easily contracted when the blood is in an im
poverished and disordered state. There are numerous other diseases which are due solely to an impure condition of the blood. Can you not see, therefore, the importance of taking a blood purifier, so as to avoid these diseases? Just give the system a thorough cleansing with S. S. S., that sterling blood remedy, and you will be in position to enjoy the blessings of good health. S. S. S. has been on the market for more than fifty years and is sold by druggists everywhere. Demand S. S. S. and don't take a substitute. Free medical -advice will be gladly given about your own case if you will write to our medical director.
