IU SEE NNISH OF LEAGUE RACE Cincinnati Bugs Are Anxious to Have it Over and Get to the Big Series. CINCINNATI. Sept 25. With one more game in the bushes, the Reds will return home tonight to open the final series of the season's schedule at Red park tomorrow afternoon against the Cuba. After visiting among their leaser lights in Ohio, Manager Moran hopes to put his boya back into major league style aglnst the Cubs in the coming series, before they step out against their fellow citizens, the White Sox. Practically every detail is complete for the handling of the enormous crowds that are expected to pour into Cincinnati next week to watch the Reds participate for the first time in 37 years in a match series for the worldVtitle. Officials of the Cincinnati club will be busy for the remainder of this week drawing and distributing tickets for the big event. Few drawings were made yesterday, but the number of applications drawn will be increased each day, and it is expected that all of the reserved seats . will be allotted by the end of the week. Several of the Cubs came to Cincinnati Wednesday, and will spend

their time at the races recuperating their health, and ropping their coin until Manager Pat's dashing crew , come back from their trip into the wilds for the wind-up.

The rest of the Cub outfit will be here this morning, and they will have a day off preceding their series with the champions, which opens with a double-header tomorrow and closes on Sunday. These will be the final games of the championship season, and Manager Moran expects to utilize them to put his team right on edge for the big stuff with the Sox. The regular team will play against the Cubs, and the pitchers who are to labor in the world's series will get their final work-outs. While the games are of little importance so far as their results go. for the Reds have the pennant cinched, while the Cubs are sure of finishing third, they will give Manager Moran his last chance to tune up his team and polish his system of play. Vaugh and Martin will pitch the two games of the double header tomorrow, which will give the champions plenty of practice against both kinds of pitching. The Cubs will close their season here on Sunday, and several of the players will remain over for the first two games of the series. The Reds wind up their exhibition tour with a game at Dayton this afternoon, and will reach home this evening.

HIGH SCHOOL LINE WILL AVERAGE 162 POUNDS PER MAN

High school football fans were given a glimpse of what the school's varsity will look like, when Coach Fries picked a tenatlve first string team at last night's practice at the playgrounds. Coach Fries' choice gives the school a linp that averages 162 pounds and a back field that will come very near this mark. Judging from Coach Fries lineup, the R. H. S. varsity team will include Ralph Motley and Burr Simmons ends, Wilbur Vogelsong and Elwin Hoerner, tackles and Grayson Murley and Clem Price guards, and Wynne Evans center. These man make .n unusually heavy line for a high school team, as Vogelsong and Hoerner tip the beam at the 175 pound mark and Murley and Price will

'average about 160. Evans is rather

light, but the other men have enough "beef to hold him up and the line will average about 162 pounds. Leroy Harding and Roland Loehr are candidates for half-back, with Emslie at quarter and Doliins at full. General Practice Held. No team plays, or signal practices will be held until the arrival of B. J Rock, who will take over the team for the season. Coach Fries said Wednesday night that he did not know the plan of play Rock intended to use and for that reason would confine tho workouts to general football tactics. The football equipment for the team has not yet arrived, but word has been sent to S.-S. Vernon, athletic manager of the team, that the equipment is on the way and can be expected at most any time.

(By Associated Press) CHICAGO, Sept. 25. It is a singular coincidence that five members of the Cincinnati Nationals formerly wore the uniforms of the White Sox the team they are to play for the world's baseball championship. Eddie Rousb, star batter and outfielder with the Reds, was with the White Sox for a tryout under the management of Jimmy Callahan in 1913, but was released to Lincoln. Morris Rath, the Reds second baseman also was with the White Sox

under Callahan.

to the front as a .300 hitter. He was

signed by Cincinnati last season and made good from the start. "Hod" Eller, who has been pitching remarkable ball for the Reds was on the White Sox roaster during the spring trip of 1916, but was released to the Moline club of the Three-I-league. Eller started his professional career in the Three-I-league, which also produced Clarence Rowland, whom "Kid" Gleason succeeded as manager of the White Sox. Rowland was the first to recognize Eller's major league possibilities and gave him a chance to qualify in fast company. While the tea.m was in training at Mineral Wells, Texas, Eller "palled" with Dave Danforth and other pitchers, and picked up a lot of valuable information. His rise to baseball fame with the Reds has been rapid. Like Eddie Cicotte, one of the pitching stars of the White Sox, Eller's best-year previous to this season was

in 1917. He won ten out of fifteen games. He has been one of the pitching mainstays of the Red's staff this season. The Sox also contributed two more players to the Reds, concerning whom little is heard. They are Henry Schreiber, utility infielder, who was in the Chicago club in 1914, and Arte-
