Cubs Play Tigers First Game In Detroit
WORLD'S SERIES
WILL BEGIN
sraoM
DETROIT, Mich.—The series be
tween the Chicago Cubs, who won
the pennant of the National League
yesterday, and the Detroit Tigers, for
the world championship, will begin in
Detroit tomorrow, Saturday. Sis
games were arranged by the national
commission in session at Cincinnati,
and the second, the Sunday game,
will be played in Chicago.
Now that the national champion
ship has been won and the Cubs for
the third successive time are winners,
fans throughout the country are fig
uring out the winner of the world's
championship series
Taking into consideration the run
away race (he Chicagos made of the
series with the Detroits last year, not
a few are under the iinpreßSion that
they will once more do the trick by
wallopning the Tigers, who again face
the Cubs for the world’s champion
ship.
On the other hand, the followers
of the Detroitß are confident of a
victory, as the Tigers are in a‘much
better physical condition to battle
for the honors this year. That this
is apparent, can be seen by the great
finish Jennings’ aggregation made.
It is almost a foregone conclusion
that much will depend upon the pitch
ers of both teams. The Chicagos will
look to Brown. Pfeister and Rueibach
td land the flag for them, while De
troit places its faith in Donovan, Mul
lin and Killian.
All these stars have been much
worked during the season, owing to
the battle royal for the honors, and
it's nothing more than a toss-up be
tween them.
The series for the world’s cham
pionship began in 1903,when Boston,
of the American League, and Pitts
burg. were the opponents, the hon
ors going to Boston, Boston winning
five out,of seven games played.
There was no series in 1904, owing
to some disagreement between the
Giants, winners of the National, and
Boston, winner of the American flag.
The Giants won the world's honors
in 1905, beating the Athletics four
games out. Of five. The series was
most, interesting, inasmuch as each
victory for the winner was a white
wasn for the loser.
The White Sox beat the Cubs for
the honors in 1906, while the Cubs
won from Detroit last year.

CUBS BEAT GIANTS
FOR PENNANT
4TOI
NEW YORK.—A terrific batting ral
ly by the Chicagos in the third in
ning of yesterday's game decided the
last game of the season in favor of
1,.e Cubs, giving them the champion
ship of the National League over
their rivals, the Glauts. and entitling
them to meet the Detroits in the
world championship series.
The crowd was one of the great
est that ever assembled to witness a
ball game. The intense interest felt
in the game was shown by the fact
some of the spectators had been at
the park gates since the night before,
and when the park gates opened at
11 o'clock,’there were 5,000 ready for
admission.
Every possible seat was filled, all
standing room was taken, and every
vantage point around the Polo
grounds, from which the game could
be viewed, was packed with a throng
of cheering, anxious humanity.
The Giants took the lead In tin
initial inning. Tenney was hit by
the ball and Herzog walked. Bres
nahan struck out und Kling dropped
the ball. Kling foxily threw to third
and Herzog bit. Bresnahan was out
anyway, and Herzog, caught, in the
chase, was also out. Donlin hit to
right for two bases and Tenney
scored.
In the third inning, Chicago get
very busy. Tinker smashed out a
long one for three bases, not going
qujte to the crowd. Kling singled on
a line to left, scoring Tinker. Brown
sacrificed. Sheckard died out. Then
Evers walked, and Schulte doubled.
Kling tallying. Chance smashed a
hard one out for two bags, scoring
Evers and Schulte. Stelnfeldt fan
ned.
Both Brown and Mathewson now
pitched better ball. In the seventh
the Giants had a magnificent chance,
but the batting was off color. Dev
lin singled. McCormick singled, and
Brown, rather rattled, now walked
Bridwell. Mathewson was yanked
out and Larry Doyle pulled off the
bench and sent in to hat for the big
pitcher. But Larry proved a disap
pointment. for he popped out to
Kling. Tenney drove a liner to
Schulte. On the throw-in Devlin
[scored, but Herzog shot one down to
Tinker, who made a peach of a stop
and a quick throw to first put the
New Yorkers on the blink for keeps.
Following is the official score of
the game:

MANY THINK BROWN IS
MATTHEWSON'S HOODOO
NEW YORK.—The defeat of the
Giants by the Cubs in the pennant
game yesterday, has caused many to
ask is Wizard Sown Matty's hoodoo?
The Giants' great twirler has not
won a game from Chicago when
Brown opposed him since June 13,
1905. On that day Matty established
a record for the year. While twirling
against the miner, he shut the Cubs
out without the semblance of a hit.
Since then the three-fingered marvel
has had the better of every argument
he has engaged in with Matty. Luck
has many times played a prominent
figure in the Chicago victories, but
never once aince that eventful day
has Dame Fortune smiled upon "Big
Six" when he Is pitted against Brown.
No matter what kind of a game
Matty pitches against the Cubs, no
matter how small the amount of hits
the Cubs get off him, and no matter
how hard the Giants are hitting Mor
decai, there has always been some
mysterious element that makes Ihe
three-fingered freak emerge a victor
over the Giants' idol.

EMORY CROSS-COUNTRY
RELAY ON THE TRACK
EMORY COLLKCJK, Ox lord, (Hi.
Emory’* annual cross-country relay
race will not be run across iillls and
streams in the future, but on tUo
campus track and a two mile circle
to the north of Oxford, according to
a decision reached by flu* exe
cutive conunlltee of the Kmoi \
College Athletic association at
the Initial meeting of the year this
morning.
This is one of the most Interest
ing features of Mmory athletics, and
is unique in that Mich a coldest is
held at very few colleges. Hereto
fore the ten best tong distance *run
ners in each of tin* five classes ha\o
composed the contesting teams, and
have been stationed live strong a*
each mile post for nine miles out to
the north of Oxford, tin* game being
to cover ten miles with the class
message first, the tenth mile being
run on the oampui track. Natural
iy, by tills system, the last two miles
of the race were practically the only
ones on which many of the large
number of spectators who attend fliiv
event each year could follow the
runners for any long distance. The
difference in this year's method of
conducting the race lies in the ad
vantage of almost the entire ten
mile course being under the observe
tion of the many spectators.
This year's teams will be selected
this week or early next week, and
the race will he pulled off on Mon
day afternoon, October lb. The foot
hall season will open on the follow
in? Monday.
Another Important action of the
Athletic Association was the pas a
Ing of a motion providing for the »i>
