\ R SPORTS. QUOTED AT 6-5 TO BEAT GIANTS IF TEAMS CLASH ational League Money Scarce, Backers of McGraw- men Demanding Better Odds—One Wager $200 to $300 Ruth Gets 3 Homers. 2. EW YORK, September 23—Although the latest triumphs of the two New York teams did not clinch a pennant for either clan to a thematical certainty, speculation already has started in local circles on the probable outcome of the world series. The victory of the Giants over Pittsburgh and the triumph of the Yankees over the Cleve- land Indians had the effect of increasing the confidence of the admirers of both teams that another intracity series would be played this year, and produced the first wagers on the outcome of the annual fall base ball classic. Tn what speculation was reported today the Yankees were quoted as 6-to-3 favorites to beat the Giants in the event that the two teams clash. Giant money was reported scarce, a feature which was attributed to the remarkable closing rush of the Yankees and the hope for better odds before the teams line up for the world series.
