The New Departure team of Bris- tol and the South Manchester team will play the deciding game of a series at Clarkin Field next Saturday after- uoon. The game will start at 3 o'clock, with both teams having their sirongest lineups. Each team has won two games in the present strug- gle for supremacy. The Bristol club looked like an easy winner when the fivst two games went to the team after close battles. Manchester then came back and evened up the series. Tt is probable that Goodridge and Johnson will be the opposing slab- men. . WISH GRANTED. Cambridge, M t. 5.—At tie request of the National Baseball commission, Ernest €.

For many those prepar- ations took the form of hunting up mid-Winter apparel, for it was shivery long before midnight and the predic-: tion for today Was fair, but cool There was a lively-last minute traf- icking in reserved seats between those who had been fortunate enough to get them ard those who had~* Of- ficially there were none to be had, as avery last ticket had been bought ex- cept the free-for-alls in the grand stand and the bleacher pasteboards which went on sale at 7 o'clock thi norning, an hour and a half before he gates open. $100,000 Wagered in Wall Street Betting wasalmost as brisk as ar- guing over the relative chances of the contenders. Big bets generally were placed at even money, but among the smaller wagers the Giants appeared to be slightly favored, the money us ually being put down at 6 to 5. It was reported in Wall street that $100,000 had been bet there up to closing time and Brooklyn's estimate- was that $50,000 wouid change hands on the series. Along the White Way and in hotels where enthusiasts from other towns #>ught the very latest inside stuff from New York friends who had been able to follow the winning nines more closely, there was more betting and more arguing last night, but neither side seemed to have the conclusive best of it.

Dayton, Ohio., Oct. 5 —Johnny Dun- dee of New York, won the referee's de- cf lightweight, in a twelve round bout here last night. ion over Blockie Richards, a local vorite topic was of course, that home- run wizard, Mr. Ruth. The Yankee fans found in him their mainstay of hope and proise, and even those whose interest or money lay on the other side were keen to see what the Babe would do at the opening of the year's big show. Any one who may have doubted last night that the metropolis had surren- dered to the excitement of the ap- proaching contest in a way reminiscent of the eve of the late Dempsey- Carpenter arguent, would have found himself mistaken had he visited the Polo Grounds where a little army of workers had put almost the last touches to the big baseball plant. First Fan at Gates at 10 A. M. The vanguard of the 37,000 got there at 10 o'clock yesterday morning. He was Charles Kierst, a city fireman of Auburn, N. Y. He was still there at midnight and manifestly meant (o stay. By then he had been joined by some forty others in the growing line n front of the Eighth avenue window, where the bleacher seats are to be handed out at $1 each—war tax 10 cents. They were frankly the hoi polloi of the fans, so eager to see the gamc they aidn't care how much hardship they had to undergo to get one of the best of the worst seats Over on the Specdway was anothe: line. There were twenty of them a midnight, and to the curious whe watched them they represented the aristocracy of the early comers. They were ready to pay $3 each for grand and seats as soon as the first sleepy- eyed ticket seller swung open his wicket in the morning. Then there was a third line of the vich. They were the ones who intended to drive to the Polo Gronnds in their cars, and din't see why they mightn't as well do it the night before and get it over with. So they hustled up or down, to the scenc of today's do- ings, parked their vehicles, mad themselves snug inside and prepa to debouch early in the morning before the lines ahead of thom were very long. Some in that class were in their own cars. Some were in thecir masters’ cars, _but the aw>d curbstaneites in the bleacher line they all looked like 1 wealth, until their snugly drawn curta hid them from sper-Fan Waits 22 1-2 Hours To return to the young man nam Kierst who now enters bascball history Ly vir of being on the line land a twenty-two and a half hour wait » get inside.

The Yankees were nd gone by the time the took the field. The big town were in the grounds at the same time, but scarcely saw one an- other. The weather was fine for the work- outs and the grounds in splendid con- dition-—the best condition, according to Henry Fabian, they ever have bee in. fine for them, and Fabian was work on them all day. which be- at 2 o'clock at men dashing around and whooping it up like boys out for play. That was a feature of their drill; they apparent- ly were looking forward to the blue ribbon clash—the first for them— without any misgivings—in any event, ng. There was a bit of disquieting news in the camp, though. Bob Meusel, the outfielder and long distance _hitter, visited a doctor in the morning to have an X-ray picture made of his left shin bone. An old injury there hasibgen troubling him lately. It has painéd him when he stood on it for any length of time and, he thinks, possibly, affecting his hitting. Bone May Be Splintered. The doctor thought the bone might be splintered, but had to await the development of the picture to tell about that. Meusel was more fretted lest the M. D. tell him not to play on the leg than by the leg itself. He said he would be out there if he had to play on one leg. Al Woods, the Yankee trainer, had little doube that Meusel would be all right for play. The X-ray, he said, was taken to make sure nothing serious was wrong, and Woods thought the recent wet weath- er might have caused the leg to ache. Babe Ruth’s leg has come along fa- mously with two days’ rest, and Frank Frisch has about recovered from his charley horse. It is well, for these two are fast members of their respective bands. Manager Mc- Graw was not at the Polo Grounds. He left the supervision of the prac- tice to Hugh Jennings. The work for both outfits was of the usual kind and was lively and full of vim. Ma, and Hoyt warmed up in goed style for the Yankees and Shawkey fol- lowed with a spell of flinging. Mays said he had a fine workout and Shawkey said he was feeling much better than for several days. The whole Yankee crowd is chipper and smiling. The question of just who will pitch the opening game to- day is no nearer decided than it has been. Hugsins would make no final| announcement regarding his pitcher, and, in truth. he won't decide him- self until today. It will be Mays or Hoyt for the Yankees, and is as likely to be one as the other. McGraw did not intimate to either Jennings or to John Evers, who ad- dressed the Giants just before they went out for practice, whether he would pick Toney or Nehf. Both went through their course of sprouts vesterday as if everything depended on them today. With certain men | close to the team there's a strong hunch that Toney will be the nom- inee; with others just as close, that | Nehf will he.

The local High school team will meet a worthy opponent Saturday afternoon on the grounds of the, Meriden High school, when the Silver City eleven will be stacked up against Coach George C. Cassidy’s squad. That the Meriden team has-an abund- ance of material to make of in sel- ecting its squad this year was proved to the embarassment of the Hartford High school last week, according to stories which have reached the ears of | the local team. It appears that the Meriden and Hartford managers arranged early in the season for a game to be played last Friday. The Silver City squad was about to take the field when it was an- nounced that the Capitol City institu- tion had sent its second eleven, so con- fident were the Newellites that the first squad was far too superior for the smaller schcol. The second squad of the Meriden school was rushed through a set of signals and put into the field and the result was an easy win for Meriden, score 6 to 0. GUILFORD AND OUIMET 'S.

Winning the First Game. It has occurred to more than one student of baseball. the sort not in- clined to follow the herd blindly in the matter of pre-war talk, that un- due stress is being laid on the im- portance of winning the first game. Naturally it is better to win than lose it: but success in the first game, means nothing. That is, the team winning the first is no better off than the oth- er crowd if the latter win the second. Losers of the first game have been known to win the series. It will take five straight to win this series—not where he took a prominent part in track and football. Competing for the Tiger track team in England during the summer of 1920, Lourie won the British Isles amateur championship in the broad jump. JOE STECHER DEFEATS “STRANGLER” LEWIS IN BOUT.
