PALEARNED & CO. ‘AgencyiEstablished May, 1846 New York, Oct. 9.—Heavy rain which began shortly before noon caused a postponement until tomorrow of the thi world’s series game scheduled for today between the Chicago White Sox and the New York Giants. Rain fell during the night and early morning, but there was every prospect that the game would be played until the be- ginning of the heavy downpour, which lasted all afternoon. The forecast for tomors} is fair and warmer. The rain today wae accompanied by a de- clded drop in temperature. Fully 15000 spectators were in the Polo grounds stands when the official announcement of the postponement Over Thames Nat. Bank. Shetucket St. | Was made.

Under the ruling of the national commission, the teams must remain in this city until two legal games have been played. If the clubs are able te® resume their struggle here tomorrow and the Giants win one or both con- tests, the combinations will return to Chicago for a single game there next. Saturday, instead of Friday, as orig- inally scheduled. If a sixth game is necessary to decide the series, the teams will leave Chicago Saturday night and take up the play again at the Folo grounds the following Mon- day. The postponement proved a severe Gisappointment to thousands of bafs- ball enthusiasts who had come from distant points to witness the battle. Almost every city and town through- out the New England and middle At- lantic states was represenited by dele- and fourth games. Heavy and contin- vous rain caused the commission to repeatedly call off the scheduled game until many fans, tired of delay, sold their tickets to speculators for a frac- tion of their face value and returned to their home towns. Since that date the series has been nlayed each vear without postponement or break, except yhere a Suncay intervened, until to- ay. ‘The consensus of opinion tonight was that Cicotte would pitch for Chi- cago tomorrow and that he would be opposed by Sallee for New York.

How to ClI Happily the action of the nitro pow- der is confined to the polished interior of the barrels and they may be kept in perfect shape if, after use, the fol- lewing method is followed: 1. Brush out the bore with a bristle brush. 2. Wipe out with a rag. 3, If etreeks of lead appear—and they are quite apt to in the 20-gauge tubes—remove them with a Tomlinson cleaner (brass gauze covered wood forms laid on springs). 4. A second rag will remove the lead loosened by the cleaner. 5. A third rag usually comes out white. 6. If the bore is now besmeared with a nitro solvent, such as Hopps No. 9, the action of the solvent will cause a black precipitate to form which may be wiped out in a day or two, when another application of the solvent should be made for nitro powder resi- Mue does not allow of a thorough clean- ing the first time.

This num- ber includes fifteen men of the 1916 football team and eight varsity cap- tains. Most of these men have either received commissions, or are in line for them. Principal credit for the succsesses of the Tiger athletes in securing commissions is due to the efficient training received here last year under Colonel Stuart Heinzel- man who conducted three courses in intensive training.
