WORLD SERIES WILL GET EARLY START THIS YEAR

Order of War Department Pushes Baseball Classic Forward a Month. NEW YORK, Aug. 13. If the World Series is played, as proposed, beginning on September 3 or 4 this fall. It will be the earliest start since the baseball classic was first staged more than thirty years ago. Strange to say the initial series, wich was held in 1884, was iot begun until October 23, which Is the latest date ever selected for the playing of such a series. Another coincidence is the fact that the last series played before the National Commission assumed control was also started at an earlier date than any other before or since. Curtailing the present big league season by a full month naturally moves forward the World Series date by an equal period and should the National and American League pennant winning clubs clash for the premier honors of the professional diamond as in previous and normal seasons, the teams will be battling at a time when, in other years, the ultimate flag winners were frequently in doubt. During the period between 1884 and 1S97 the opening date of the big series fluctuated all the way from the first days of October to well past the middle of that month. During the years when the National League and the American Association clubs competed, the initial games were usually played on a date ranging between October 10 and 18. Later when the National and American teams took up the series contest, the earlier days of the month were more poplar. Under the control of the National Commission the date of the first game from year to year varied from October 6, which was the earliest date ever selected for the play under the direction of the interleague tribunal. For the period between 1884 and 1917, covering some twenty-six World Series the average date works out as October 10, which Is some thirty-odd days later than it is proposed to start the series this season, should the various authorities and forces Involved agree that such a climax to the baseball season is desirable this autumn.

Until 1908, Hayes, clerking in a New York store had done nothing to win fame. He was a good clerk, selling ribbons by day and training in long-distance runs by night. However, Hayes became a world celebrity when he was first to breast the tape in the Olympic Marathon. He wore the colors of the Irish-American club, New York City, in that race. It was the first Marathon in the Olympic games won by a gunner from this country. Young Hayes bore his honors modestly, never forcing himself into the limelight of publicity unless he was called upon to do so.
