LEHI?‘H GIVES YALE { A HARD TUSSLE Lbgore Comes to the Rescue and Scores Blue's Only Touchdown— Score 7 to 6. _ In a game full of distressing fea- tures for the Blue, Yale succeeded in defeating Lehigh by a 7 to 6 score at' New Haven Saturday afternoon. Lehigh threatened the Yale goal line up to' the ‘close of the contest and twice'a third field goal seemed immi- nent. The brilliant plays of Yale were few and casy to point out, including the consistent good work of the line from tackle to tackle! the blocking of a kick from Cahall's unerring toe three inutes before the game was over, and a long forward pass from Scovil to Charley Taft, which directly pre- ceded Yale's only touchdown.

Each has scored a victory in the open- ing installment of games, just finish- ed at Philadelphia, and their over- night transfer brought the teams to the scene-of their further tests om equal terms. Indications tonight were that tomor- row's game would be noteworthy at least for the attendance. The crowd will undoubtedly .be the greatest that has ever seen a world's series contest, and possibly the greatedt that has ever n a baseball game. - It will exceed 45,000 persons, probably. More than half that number of tickets already has been sold, and the 20,000 rush seats are e ted " to” fill before the game is started.- The first of the crowd that will occupy bleacher seats took up positions at the gates of Braves' field tonight. ¥ ‘Weather conditions approaching those of summer are in prospect. The wenather forecaster predicted that the day would be fair and somewhat warmer than today, when light coats were alds to comfort. The third game ‘of the series, it was expected, would develop a more studied scheme of play on both teams. Having grappled for-18 innings, the teams have understan an of the meth- od and calibre of their o] and each is expected to show improvement in strategy and action. Alexander Phillies’ Only Hope. Philadelphia’s campaign ‘ will again revolve around Adexander, kingpin pitcher of the National league cham- plons. The failure ¢t Mayer, who pitched for the Phillies in the game which Boston won on Saturday, has emphasized the fact, admitted by the Philadelphia team’'s supporters, that it is largely in Alexander’s pitching skill that the team's hopes for a world’s championship lles. As the Red Sox were successful to an unexpected de. gree in hitting his delivery in Friday's game, followers 'of the local club were sanguine of the team’s prospects in‘the contest tomorrow. Leonard May Oppose Alexander. To oppose Alexander, Manager Car- rigan is expected to select “Dutch” Leonard, a strgpping young man who pitches with his left hand. His cun- ning, which brought him to the head of all American league pitchers last year, and to a high place on the list this season, is expected to overcome the advantage which the Phillies hold FINANGIAL AND COMMERCIAL NP e SATURDAY'S MARKET. lroad Stocks Made Another Strong Bid For Public Favor. “New York, Oct. 9.—Railroad stocks made another strong bid for public favor today, adding téw to five points to vesterday's striking gains on a very large volume of trading.

Ex- pert opinion prior to the series was generally to the effect that Philadel- phia was potentially the better bat- ting team but tl Red Sox have hit for a team average of .269 so far as game has contributed largely to the Red Sox advantage in this connection, with a naverage of .750 for his three hits yesterday. Gardner, with three hits out of seven times at bat, leads the regular players of both teams at .429, and “Duffy” Lewis is second with .875. A pitcher is high batsman - of the Phillles alsq, Alexander having an average of .333, the only mark above -300 held by any momber of 'his team. Cady and Thomas of Boston, Stock, Niehoff and Burns of Philadelpnia have gone hitless so far. From outward appearances, . the strain of the games last week did not sreatly affect the contending play- ers. They arrived on the same train from Philadelphia and took their off- day here much as they would any Sunday in the regular season. Mem- bers of ‘both teems went to churck this afternoon. Several were out on the .golf links this afternoon, while others motored during the day. A few of the Philadelphia players lounged about the hotel and some went out to Braves Field, scene of the games of tomorrow and Tuesday, where today a band plaved and United States Sen ator Borah spoke on “Preparedness.” The return of the Red Sox was sig- nalized by an official welcome by Mayor Curley, who greeted them in behalf of the city as winners of the American League championship. The team had not been here since their league pennantshiy was made certain ten days ago and Mayor Curley bade their coming today the occasion for celebrating a success which. he sald, “was only a step to a greater victory." The mayor had a band at the Back Bay station and as the players came 1 | Out of the train shed they heard agatn the strains of “Tessie,” their song of battle, sounded as a welcome. Boy Stowaways. When it came time to close Braves Field tonight after the talk by Sena- tor Borah, it was found that a number of boys had taken advantage of the opportunity to hide themselves with- in the grounds. Stowaways were found in several places and turned out of the enclosure, These youngsters and others form- ed the first of the line which later stretched out from the gates leading to the bleachers. There were about 7,000 places to be had at 50 cents, about 3,500 of which were seats. Ten thousand seats in the left fleld pa- villon are to be placed on sale tomor- row morning, these to sell at $1 each. The Red Sox management obtained permission from the national commi: sion to turn the open spaces at the back of the grandstand into profit and it was arranged to sell standing room there when the gates open tomorrow. It was estimated that about 4,000 per- sons could comforably see the game from the rear of the stand. The number of reserved seats, 000, although unusually large, was not sufficient to satisfy the demand, it de- veloped today. It was thought a rew days ago, that nearly every one who applied had obtained seats but many persons today went to the ticket of- fices at Fenway park, where distribu- tion of the seat checks was made and complained that they had received no reservations. Some of these sald they had applied as early as Juiy, and had beer notified that time pf the receipt of their requests. ~ Notwith- numerous ~_allotment, street speculators also were said to have few tickets for sale and some tonight were trying to buy rather than sell. \ FOSTER WINS HIS OWN GAME FROM PHILLIES. Boston Boxman Drives in Winning Run in the Ninth. Philadelpnia, Oct. 9.—The breaks of the game, those fickle favors of fortune that sway the pendulum of fate, smiled upon Boston today, and tonight the red-hosed champions of the American league and the Philadelphia pennant bearers of the National circuit were on their way to Boston with the honors of the 1915 world's series even. President Woodrow Wilson and his flancee, Mrs. Norman Galt, shared the honors of the second contest with a stoutly built young Boston pitcher known to baseball fame as Georgie Foster. Foster may never go down in history as an_Alexander, a Walter Johnson or a Christy Mathewson, but when the story of the second battle of the current series is filed away in the archives of the national pastime it will be found that today he held the fighting Phillies to three base hits, struck out eight of their best wielders of the willow, and made as many hits if as he allowed the entire op- position, including a sizzling smash in the ninth that sent Gardner across the plate with the run that won the game for Boston, 2 to 1. In addition to these activities in the box, Young Foster sped to first base a couple of times and took throws from his fellow flelders that turned two seeming errors into sensational outs. resuvormnel® Hluumorrssuus e 570 1 v in fourth inning on two hits and ne;:ar- cholce. the for Moosup but late tonight ments were made to have Joe!

(Special to The Bulletin.) ‘Willimantic, Oct. 10.—The Emeralds closed the I season in this city today with a victory, beating the Sa- chems of Norwich by the score of 9 to 1. A. Hamel for the locals was invincible and for the first six innings pitched a no-hit game, letting up in the last two innings, when three hits and one run were made off his de- Mvery. The Sachems put up a poor game in the fleld, and the Emeralds took advantage of every chance. Catches by McDermott, Wheeler and McBurney featured.
