SETTING FAVORS M SEW EVEN IN NEW YORK gv \V. S. Farnsworth. Y"RK, Oct. 5. —It beats any. thing you ever heard of. but the f- ’ Red Sox are certainly the bet finir favorites. right here on the stamp ing grounds of tlie Giants. The guys who have sat around and s . H n tlie Giants fairly romp off with the y. : mnai league pennant haven’t the real ri'i’ve to bet on them. I honestly h/i.t.- that if it wasn't for a sort of • a ii.g patriotism the Red Sox w mild _■ m I favorites, right here in the - ..f iheir opponents. Tuey'te all wild over the games, • ii.rieb.

There is hardly a daily newspaper in the country that has not ordered the details of the game*. There is not a hamlet of 2.000 people that will not have telt graphic reports as the games proc. ed. At relay stations and on the sending and receiving ends of the tel ,.graph wires it is estimated 10,000 oper ators will be required to handle the n( . . . officials of telegraph companies .•) it : impossible to estimate in ad- i ranee what this will cost the out-of n fans. It w 111 run into an enormous figure. In addition to the regular news ser vices. hundreds -of electric bulletin boards have been erected in different towns and these will show the progress <>f the game, play by play. Thousands ..f thee .rs will get reports of the games for their matinee patrons. At ’he starting points. New York and Boston, as many writers and telegraph operators will be employed as are re paired at a national political conven tion. For instance, in New York res ervations have been made for 270 spe cial wtiters. One hundred special wires ate being strung into the parks. These "ill go into thousands as they reach the relay stations, and the network begins to spread over the country like a huge spider web. The morning news paper men do not use the wires during the progress of the games, but as many me. ilipoci wires will b< required at nlgl.i t" handle their stories. Dozen Special Trains.

Three of Georgia's star performers will, in all probability, be compelled to view the game with the University of Chatta nooga from the, side lines. Wheatley, the ex-Stone Mountain boy whose work at fullbat k has been great, is out of the game on account of injuries to his side. It is thought that some ribs may be broken. Henderson, whose knee was in jured in the first scrimmage of the year, has never fully regained his strength. He has been in uniform all week, but has not participated in any of the scrimmages. And last, but not least. McWhorter, the terror, has only been able to attend one practice in the last ten days, this one practice proving disastrous in that it has made him suf fer a 1 elapse from an attack of grip. While none of these men are actually laid up, still Cunningham will hardly take chances on playing them since the Vanderbilt game is just two weeks off. This leaves the line-up about as fol lows: Covington, center: Sancken, quarter; Thompson, full: Paddock and Powell, halves; Lucas and Malone, guard?: Harrell and Ptaiock. tackles, and Bowden, Conklin and Parrish, ends. All the week there has been a pretty fight between Parris, last year’s regu lar end. and Conklin, last year’s sub end, for a place on the varsity team, and it now looks like Conklin will start | today’s game in that position. While Georgia is confident of winning this game, still Coach Cunningham is taking no chances, as there is no tell ing what Chattanooga will bring down < t.... .. THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS.

It was the ninth inning, the score a tie and Rube Marquard on the slab. Three Red Sox in succession had walked and the bases were densely populated. A mighty cheer arose from Bos tenese throats and re-echoed hither and fro as Tris Speaker strode to the plate. Marquard paused in deep thought. Here, gentle reader, we must cease. It was Marquard who got himself into the hole and it is up to him to get himself out. • • • FOOTBALL. A punt, A clout, A grunt. Time out! * * * THE MODERN VERSION.
