‘ RAIN THREATENS 10 _ DISRUPT FIRST GAME ON GIANTS’ GROUNDS | Crowds ‘Stand in Line in Line to Buy] Tickets to Polo Grounds; Both Stadia Sold Out BETTING ON SERIES HEAVY Wise Money Backs Hubbell to Win First Tilt, But Favors Yanks in Long Run New York, Sept. 30.—(7)—If the weather man holds up that third strike he's threatening to slip across, the Yankees and Giants get their all- New York world series under way at 1:30 p. m. (EST), Wednesday, before @ crowd packing the Polo Grounds to the rafters. Although the official “continued cold and probable rain” forecast brought with it the possibility of post- Pponement of a series opener for the first time in the memory of the oldest veterans, Baseball Commissioner Kenesaw M. Landis withheld final de- cision on the “play ball” okay until noon. Pitchers Take It Easy In the meantime, “King Carl” Hub- bell and Charley (Red) Ruffing took things easy until time to warm up for their assignments as starting pitchers in a series that undoubtedly will break all financial and attend- ance records in the books if it goes six games, is the general prediction. ‘The Giants’ great left-hander was a 5-3 shot to stop the Yankees’ murder~ ous attack in the first game. His mates, however, were the underdogs by 11 to 20 odds in the full series, with betting reported heavy on all sides. Scalpers were doing a landoffice business, asking—and getting—from $30 up for a strip of three reserved seats for the first, second and sixth scheduled for the Polo Reserved and box seats for the entire series have been sold out for days at both the Polo Grounds and Yankee Stadium, The National League ball- yard will be host to the opening two engagements. The next three are carded for the stadium, and the sixth and seventh, if it goes that long, will be back under the shadow of Coogan’s Bluff. Regardless of postponement of the opener, or of interruption by weather after the first, contest is finished, this schedule will be maintained. ‘The crowds of patient “standees” waiting in line outside bleacher and unreserved grand stand entrances for days, and growing hourly through, ‘Tuesday night and the forenoon Wed- nesday, gave indication that the near 52,000 capacity of the Polo Grounds would be reached easily, despite the ‘possibility of postponements. Discuss Choice of Ruffing One of the principal points of ea cussion was the wisdom of Manage! Joe McCarthy's selection of Buffing to go against Hubbell in the opener. ‘Geveral still insisted that McCarthy would have been giving his side more of a break by shooting his erratic Speedball star, Lefty Gomez, against Hubbell, and leave the more depend- able Ruffing, top winner of the Yan- Kee staff this season, for the number two game, egainst either Freddy Fitz-| us simmons or Hal Schumacher, which- ever Terry nominates. Governor Herbert Lehman and Mayor F. R. LaGuardia headed an imposing list of notables planning to attend the opener. President Roose- velt has arranged to be present for the first game in Yankee stadium, scheduled for Friday. The sellout of all reserved seats brought $1,200,000 into the cashiers’ oages even before the battle gets un- der way.

Braves Invade Bismarc Bismarck Camp Friday to Renew Tradi- tional Rivalry Bismarck’'s two high school football teams are spending their hours on the practice field this week in stren- uous preparation for two of the big games on their respective schedules this season. At Bismarck high school, Coach Glenn Hanna is pointing his Demon squad, which appears to be approach- ting full strength for the first time this ear, for its annual tussle with Man- ain’s powerful Braves, who cross the iver Friday night to meet Hanna's \men under the lights at Hughes Field. At the same time, Coach Ted Cam- ipagna is driving his St. Mary’s high échool gridders hard in preparation for their contest with Linton at Linton Friday afternoon. Bismarck Outlook Better Despite the defeat handed them by; |Jamestown’s undefeated club last week, Coach Hanna is entirely satis- ; |fied with the progress his gridmen have been making. ‘The return of sev- eral stalwarts who have been on the iujured or ineligible list for one or more games this fall puts an unfamil- jar optimistic color into the Bismarck {mentor's outlook for the week. Back in uniform for this week's sessions are Harold Smith, one of two available lettermen, who will be in the backfield to add power to Hanna’s Tunning game Friday; Clausnitzer, halfback who has been on the injured list, and Welch, another halfback who missed the last game because of an injured foot. In addition, Bill Cook, guard, is back in uniform, and Bow- man will be in condition to see service jjat @ guard post, Saints Optimistic At St. Mary's, Coach Ted Cam- pagna looks forward to sending his team into the Linton game with re- newed confidence after its victory over Beulah’ last Friday afternoon. The Beulah contest found the Saints vastly improved in all departments of play, and if nothing else the win should have a good psycological effect upon his men, Campagna believes.
