OUTFIELD TO BE PROMINENT PART OF MAJOR EVENT

Much Interest is Shown in Prospective Work of

Champ Gardeners. (By Associated Press) CHICAGO, Sept. 30. Collectively

and Individually the outfield of the Chicago White Sox and the Cincinnati Heds, which will put their prowess in the world's seri3, rank among the best in the major leagues, and their work undoubtedly will be watched with keen interest during the championship contests. Defensively, they are sure and quick judges of fly balls, steady on groundem past the infield, possess powerful arms and can make quick decisions when there is a choice of one or more plavB. Offensively, some of the great

est nitiera m ine league, in addition to fast base-runners, are included. The mention of euch men as Felsch, Jackson and Llebold, veterans of the 1017 world's series against the New York Giants, coupled with hos3 of Roush, the leading slugger with the Red aggregation; Neale, Magee and Duncan, a new comer, is sufficient to ptart controversy among the fans regardless of what the figures say. Already there is talk that Roush will outhit the mighty Jack6on, and that

Felsch and Heboid will not compare wih Neale, Magee and Dtincan. Duncan is a fair hitter but a fast

with that of Jackson, who Is topping the White Sox, with an average which was hovering around .350 the latter part of the season. Duncan has been hitting about .255, while his fielding average has been around .962. That of Jackson has been around 971. Doubt as to Line-up. There is some doubt jut how the outfielders will line up for he opening game. Manager Gleason will have Jackson in left field, and Felch in center. The right field will be assigned to either John Collins or Liebold, the choice for this position resting upon whether Manager Moran sends n right handor or a southpaw to the mound In the opening game. The Reds will have Duncan, their new man, in tha left field garden, with Rou3h opposing Felsch" In center field. Neale will be assigned to the right field position. However, Manager Moran at the last moment may decide to shift "these players and may sent Sherwood Magee, a veteran, to the out garden in the opening conflict. There should be an Interesting struggle between the veteran, Jackson,

Duncan never has been under fire in a series of this kind, but his work since joining the Red ' aggregation has been of such a class ' that he has displaced the veteran, Magee, and he may give Jackson a good run. Jackson'3 batting has been one of the big assets of the Gleason tribe. He has a wonderfully strong arm which has cut many a run ofT at the plate. J Roush will be pitted against Felsch in the center garden. Both these players have thousands of admirers, for each is one of the stars of his league and a real battle is expected. Roush, who one time tried to make the White , Sox team, but was found wanting, has

See The Series on Ninth Street, And Save Travelling Expenses Richmond fans will have an equal opportunity with approximately three-fourths of the bugs of Cincinnati to see the World's series. With the Palladium electric score board, and Associated Press special service, fans here will be informed of the plays, and will be able to watch the games in the same manner that thousands of disappointed Cincy fans intend to do at the Auditorium in the Queen City. The Palladium score board has already been erected, and fans are invited to watch the games on North Ninth street, without the expense of railroad fares and hotel bills. The Palladium service will give the games to the fans as rapidly as they are received anywhere in the United States, outside the Cincinnati baseball park.

to Richmond. We might add that Cincinnati evidently isn't looking for out-of-town visitors by the manner in which they sold the baseball tickets for we know of at least two persons In Richmond who managed to secure tickets and they happened to be close friends of one of the Cincinnati players. Fifty years is a lesg time for a home crowd to wait for a world's se ries and naturally Cincinnati is probably at a 1033 to know how to manage this semi-century event but we are somewhat disappointed in not being able to see at least one of the games, for it may be a long, long time before we have the chance again and fifty years more added to a fellow's age.

takes out a lot of bis sporting blood. We have been and still are admirers and bosters of the Cincinnati players but It seems as if the ball club and the home-town fans can't stand too much prosperity. Trusting that the electric sign board will give great satisfaction to many of your out-of-town fans, we beg to remain Yours for victory.

HAGERSTOWN CANCELS GAME WITH QUAKERS

Although a second game was scheduled with Hagerstown for October 5, Manager Vlgran announced Tuesday morning that the game bad been canceled, owing to the difficulty of the Hagerstown management in obtaining a team.

GRIFFITH IS CHAMP WHEN IT GOMES TO MISSING CHAMPIONS

Baseball players who, after engaging in a world series, are traded to a club that takes part in the succeeding interleague championship contests are called lucky. If they are, then Tommy Griffith of the Robins, has earned the right to be dubbed the most unlucky player in the game. In 1914 Griffith started the season as a member of the Braves. At the opening of the year it will be recalled that the Braves did not have a chance to finish one, two, hree. After he firs few weeks of he race. Sailing's crew were anchored in he second division, which was nothing unusual for them. About the last week in June Manager Sailings told Griffith, who is a tenor of no mean ability, that he could sing his way through the league, and the player was shifted to the Reds. As soon as Tommy left the club they started their sensational spurt that resulted in their winning the National league championship and the world series from the Athletics. Griffith remained with the Reds until last winter, when he was traded to the Robins in the deal that sent Jake

Daubert to Cincinnati. While Griffith was with the Reds he never felt the sensation of collecting the loser's share of a world series, and when he wa3 sent to the Robins, he welcomed the transfer. He figured the Robins had a better chance for winning this year's pennant than had the Reds. What the Reds accomplished afer Tommy left is familiar, and he is a member of the club that finished in the last division.

Felsch, on the other hand, suffered a slump in his batting thi9 year, but has been a dangerous man in the pinch, and has boosted his batting mark to about .259, while his fielding average for the greater part of the year i3 .974. He is rated by experts as the greatest outfielder in the American league In comparison, these two players

will about break even, as where one outshines the other in hitting, the other will outHold his rival. The right field position seems to favor the Chicago aggregation.
