Big Jim Vaughan Will
Pitch in First Game
Chicago, Sept. 3.—Chicago is
ready for its wartime world's ser
ies which will open at Comiskey
Park, the scene of the 1917
championship games, to-morrow
afternoon. The playing field was
covered last night with a huge
canvas to protect it from a
drenching rain. .
Jim Vaughn will be the Cubs'
twirler in the first game. Accord
ing to word received from Pi'a-s
--burgh last night, Mitchell
openly made the statement that
Vaughn will be called upon first
and followed Thursday by Lefty
Tyler. Although Barrow has
given out no hint as to what he
intends to do in the way of pitch
ers. in view of Mitchell's an
nouncement it is expected that ho
will start Ruth or Mays in the
first game.
Steady demand for reserved
seats has convinced Walter Craig
head, business manager of tho
Chicago Nationals, that few wili
remain to be placed on sale on
the opening day of the Heries
From the indications, the 17,000
box and reserved scats will be .told
before to-night. The 15,000 gen
eral admission tickets will not bo
placed on sale until the days of
each game.

-TUESDAY EVENING,
Mulford, in Frontenac Car,
Won $2,000 Motor Race
At Uniontown yesterday, Ralph
Mulford, driving a Frontenac Spe
cial, without a stop, won the 112-
mile race and $.2000, before a crowd
of 25,000.
For a time the race was nip-and
tuck between Mulford and Chevrolet,
but the latter was forced out twice
by tire trouble. Chevrolet was called
in and reprimanded by Referee Ros
boro, when he violated the rule
which requires a car to pass another
from above, and incidentally changed
a flat right front tire during the rep
rimand.
Chevrolet led the field up until the
sixty-third lap, after gaining half a
lap on Mulford, following a stop in
the thirty-eighth lap. With only two
laps to go, Chevrolet passed Omar
Toft, thus gaining second place. Toft,
who yesterday was arrested and jail
ed on a charge of breaking and en
tering the speedway garage and
stealing two of Tommy Milton's tires,
drove an excellent race without a
stop. Toft put up his racing car as
bond, but later had it released, and
drove in the race.
Denny Hickey, of Connellsville,
driving a Hudson, blew a front tire
in the eighty-seventh lap, crashed
into the upper rail on the death run,
rolled down to the lower guaj-d and
escaped serious injury. The car was
badly damaged. At the time he was
fourth in the race.
On account of his accident in the
special championship race with Mul
ford and Chevrolet, when his car was
wrecked on the death run, Resta
was unable to enter the big event.
Resta escaped with slight bruises.
Chevrolet averaged 102 1-2 miles an
hour to win the last heat, five laps of
the special match.
Irwin E. Janke, of Milwaukee,
carried oft three of four professional
motorcycle events. Edward Carroll,
of Springfield, Mass., won the other.

Chicago wins.
The dope declares that Mitchell's
team will beat the Red Sox four out
of the six games that will be played
and recover for the National League
the old honors, and the first straw
hat world's championship-
That the series will be extremely
close and exciting all the way, with
low scores, and that the champion
ship will be decided by errors ot in
lielders is plulnly indicated without
even a glance into the magic crystal.
That the result is dependent largely
upon the selection of pitchers is be
yond doubt, and everything points to
Jim Vaughn as the individual hero.
As a wagering proposition (al
though I urge strongly against wag
ering on baseball), this series is one
of the most even ever arranged, and
there is a tremendous chance to have
the entire championship turn upon
one infield error.
1 am rather surprised to find how
hard the Red Sox figure to hit Hen
drix and now hard the Cubs figure to
bat Bush.
It looks to me rather a cinch that
Boston will open the series with
Bush, who just now is going great
guns, pitching faster and with better
control than he has all year, and
usually in hard luck. His hard luck
figures to stick with him.
But Barrow will not hesitate to
match Bush against Vaughn for that
reason. Bush has experience, has
been through the fire of world's ser
ies before and would seem to look
good against the best of the Cub bat
ters. It will be errors behind Bush
that will bring about his downfall.
The Cubs, of course, will start Ty
ler in the second game. He is the
one best bet against: the Red Sox be
cause he knows them inside out and
his kind of pitching is just the kind
that they do not hit. Boston will
lose again, in spite of great pitching
by Ruth, and the game figures to
be the closest and cleanest of the
series-
In the third game at Chicago Jones
will rescue the Red Sox and win
easily, holding the Cubs to few scat
tered hits, while the Red Sox ought

Walter Cox Drives Stallion
Fastest Heats Ever Made
Hartford, Conn., Sept. 3.—The
opening day of the grand circuit race
meeting here yesterday afternoon
was made noteworthy by Lu -Prince
ton's performance in the free-for-all
trot, Walter Cox piloting the horse
in the two fastest heats ever made
by a stallion in a race.
The new world record was ac
claimed by an enormous crowd.
More than 50.000 people attended the
Connecticut fair in connection with
which the grand circuit program is
being conducted.
Lu Princeton's victory was a clean
cut one, and although the stallion
went in record time, at no stage of
the race was he pushed hard by his
closest rival, St. Frisco, who took
second money.
J. H. Lawrence's fast Hoboken
mare, Lizzie March, took ail three
heats in the 2.07 pace, the concluding
event of the day's program, and thus
made the card a straight-heat affair.
Many prominent officials, including
Governor Holcomb, were present.
The summary:
The Acorn, 3-ycar-old trotters, 2.20
class, two in three, purse $2,000.

to hammer Hendrix's spitter fairly
hard and break the Cub defense.
The decisive game of the series
should be the opening one on the
Boston grounds. If the Red Sox
could win that they would have bet
ter than an even chance for the
championship, but the dope indicates
that, after tney start with a slight
lead, Mays will wabble late in the
game and the Cubs will get the lead
before Ruth ran rescue his wild
brother of the bat. That game will
go to the Cubs 3 to 2 alter a fierce
tight. I could tell you a lot more
about that game if I could know
who would be back of the bat. If it
is a certain ump who is weak on
calling fast low balls, then it is safe
to say that the Cubs will score more
than three runs, and that May will
not last as long as the above score
shows.
You can see by the pitching ce
lections how either manager has a
big chance to upset the dope by
changing pitchers. Mitchell's choice
is all set—and there is but slight
doubt he will pitch Vaughn, Tyler
and Hendrix in rotation.
The pitching form of Rut is not
quite as keen as it was, but he has
one strong game in him. Jones
really looks best of the Red Sox
twirlers, doped against the Cubs.
The reason that the Cubs figure
to score rather freely against Bush
is that they have seen much of
his kind of pitching. I expect him
to sweep them away with his speed
in the early innings and strike out
many but later in the game they
figure to start a slamming rally and
break the infield of the Red Sox.
Here is a tip! Studying each play
er in the series against each pitch
er I want to warn you fellows to look
cut for Dode Paskert. Some of these
pitchers are measured to order for
the veteran and I would not be sur
prised to see him the big attacking
factor of tho series, although Merklc
also figures stronger than one would
suppose.
Some of the sharps are figuring
Carl Mays to work one of the games
in Chicago, but I do not believe he
will. The reason is that to pitch suc
cessfully Mays needs a pitcher's slab
which is set low. There are some
grounds on which he cannot work
well at all because the slab is ele
vated and his underhand delivery
loses much of its effect. The White
Sox pitching slab would handicap
him, while the Boston slab is lower
and made to fit him.
The dope figures and cross figures
show the Cubs to win. At one time
I thought it would show the Cubs
winning four out of five, but Ruth
plainly figures to win the fifth game.
' Look out for errors at third base
for Boston and second base for the
Cubs. Noyv go to it.

Fans .of Harrisburg and Steelton
will be able to see something of this
post-season baseball agitation, for
George Cockill and the Bethlehem out
fit are tied after finishing the regular
season and a trio of games for the
championship is shortly to be an
nounced. It was a precious lucky
thing that Cockill had Jack Knight
in his line-up yesterday. Otherwise
it would have been good-night for
the flag at Cottage Hill. All that
stood in the way of "Lefty" Williams
and his road to fame yesterday was
Jack Knight, the veteran infielder.
Williams, the former White Sox
southpaw, struck out -fourteen Steel
ton batters, but could not master
Knight, and Manager George Cockill's
team won a thrilling eleven-inning
the Philadelphian, who
made his big league start under Con
nie Mack many years ago, drove in
Steelton's winning run and scored the
I other two himself. He had a triple,
i double and single, and Joe Jackson
robbed him out of at least another
double.
Steelton's victory at the same time
Bethlehem was winning from Fore
River, in New England, still keeps the
two teams on even terms and as this
was the official closing day in the
Steel League they are deadlocked for
th Wilmington had a magnificent
chance to get in on a triple tie. All
it had to do was win yesterday's
game, but Knight's bat and Lefty
Pierce's pitching in the closing in
nings stood in their way.
A collision between Joe Jackson and
Gliarrity in right center field in the
eleventh inning virtually broke up the
