The baseball fans, nearly all armed trita umbrellas 'and baseball gossip, vers lined up six deep on Chambers street, on both sides, and stretched around en Broadway. Even the walks about tho Court House were Jammed with the ex cited and voluble fans. The crowd be jan to gather In the vicinity long before tie time for the starting of the game In Cincinnati, which was 3 o'clock, Eastern time, each fan looking for a spot where I could get tho best view of The Sun's Urge and remarkably well constructed score board, which sec forth each play , vlth a clearness and promptitude that' could hardly bo excelled had the onlook ers occupied seats In the front row at the scene of the struggle. Frank Lewis, tho chief operator of the board, stood behind the big Bcreen which Wis erected on the second floor of the, Stewart Building. swd with a wand, on the end of which was a golf ball, marked tie course of each play with a fidelity that brought cheers or groans from the fins, according to their sympathies. All llr. Lewis had to do In order to assure a burst of applause was toHurn a wheel or move his wand, which was connected by wires to a system, of pulleys, and show that some Cincinnati player naa ione something meritorious. For It wns a National League crowd that watched the game with breathless Interest at tne Etiwart Building. ' p- Splendid Police Itesnlatlons. When fhe expert telegrapher, L.

The work of tho police was tjlendld. "But, say," said a tall cop with a face lie Bob Fltzsimmons. "If tho sun had ttta shining here fo-dny like it was in Cincinnati, we would have had'our work nt out for us. There would have been M.OOO persons right on the Job." Standing In the drizzling rain were an classes, from the messenger boys carry- bf "rush" messages to the business mini h raincoat and expectations. The crpwd watched the board closely as the batting order went up and waited for something to happen. This took place In the first inning, when Jake Daut Wrt, former Brooklyn favorite, singled tad sent In the first run of the game. (thunderous Applause for Danliert. "Oh, you Jake," yelled one delighted I ErooklynKe. This applause was thtin feroun later In the nme. when Daubert tripled, .and .the big first baseman was retarded aa one of tho heroes of the oc a si on. Some of the White Sox sympathizers ieclared ironically that the talk of "Sl eotty" having a lame wing was for bet ting purposes, but when the shlno bdftl man was driven from the mound they Insisted that his arm must really have teen lame. "Lame nothing 1" howled the support ers of the Beds. "Ho Is up against real hitters."

The play by Innings also was flashed to battleships In the harbor and by them sent by wireless to other warships at distant points, so that the news of the nrst game between the Reds and Sox girdled the earth. In the cafes and hotels uptown there was last evening a constant buzz of comment on the game, and those who had wagered oh the Sox showed a dis position to hedge. Even money was quoted on the result and the lied rooter were eager to speculate on that basis.

Many forgot the 'difference In time between here and Cnclnnatl and began calling at two o'clock. Many of these seemed to think that the operators were kidding them and Insisted that surely the game must have started.

Box seats for three games, costing $19.80, were snapped up at prltesi ranging -from $40 to $60 early in the day, one visitor paid izi ior three $5.50 seats for to-day's game. Persons having seats to sell circulated among the baseball crowds thronging the hotel corridors peddling their wares. The speculators also were busy on street cor ners and other places where baseball crowds gathered. Federal authorities made one Rrrert and held one witness In connection with the ticket selling. Under tho law, "specu lators selling tickets for more than face value -Are- obliged to pay Federal war tax of 10 per cent, of the amount re ceived. Revenue agents were stationed In hotel lobbies to watch for violations and a score of suspected scalpers were ques tioned CORNELL VARSITY ROUTS RESERVES Olney Rips Scrub Line for Winning Touchdown. Special Detpatch to Tan ScK, Ithaca, Oct 1. After a long line scrimmage on the upper field to-day, during which Capt. Bhlverick essayed a number of goals from the field, the Cornell teams transferred their activi ties to the stadium and the first eleven gave a good exhibition of advancing the ball, going from Its' forty yard lino straight down the field for a score. Cavlea, Olney and Bhlverick made most of the gains, and Olney went Over for the tally. Tho first team was strengthened In the middle of the line when Paul Miller, veteran guard of the 15 and '18 teams, played for the first time and Pendleton, tho powerful guard from the 1917 varsity, was moved up to the first team from the scrubs. Two other changes In the first team lineup were noticed, Cunncen playing left end and Baugher going In nt fullback. These shifts, however, are not regarded as final, but In accordance with the Rush policy of giving every good man a chance to show. The varsity line material was strengthened to-day by the arrival of Swanson, who played a guard on the 1917 team.' Competition for players In the rush line Is growing keener. The field is open and not a man is sure of his place. It Is recognised at the field that Cornell's chances this year depend largely on the success the coaches have In developing Inexperienced material. nOYAIiS WIND UP SEIIII3S.

MORAN AND GLEASON BUBBLE" CONFIDENCE Each Leader Is Optimistic in His Statement Boforo Battle. 1 v Cincinnati, Oct. 1. While neither Pat Moran qr Kid Qleason were ' boastful both, big team leaders were optimistic when the teams' took the field for the first battle of the 1919 world's scries. Each announced confidence In his team. Cincinnati was bubbling, enthusiastic To-night all Ohio Is delirious. Just before play started each manager Issued a statement Manager Moran of the Cincinnati team said: "We have clearly earned our way into the series and we clearly will earn our way through It. I believe thatwe have the better pitching. In fact, I do not know when a team over went lntoso great an event with so strong a string o'f first class hurlora.v I have six men on any one of whom I can depend for excellent ncrvlce. My pitcher for the opening game will be Walter Ruether. The team deserves the lion's share of the credit, for It Is ft great ball club which fought Its way through the season without a sign of faltering. We aro going up against a great ball club, but I think we will hold our own." Manager Qleason of the White Sox gave voice to the following : "My boys nro a great bunch and they are going to be very hard to beat. The team battled Its way through the American League with such confidence and such absolute nerve In all the pinches that I have the utmost confidence hi each and every player. At the same time I fully reallzo that we are going to be submitted to a supreme test In this series. I have known Pat Moran for many years and he Is 'a tough iron to beat. Also any club that could stand ofT the Giants as the Reds did on three different occasions Is going to bo no easy mark fdr any club. But I bc llevo that my pitchers have been under estimated. Welare here to win and wo hope" to do so." The national "6aeeball commission met at 10 o'clock In the Tnornlng and gave their final Instructions to their umpires and agreed Upon tho ground rules with the managers, Will Trla Hedge t Manager Trls Speaker of tho Cleve land Indians, who came within a few games of opposing tho Redlegs In the World's series, headed the Cleveland 'delegation, which numbered approxi mately 500.

He declared it his belief that the Cincinnati Reds would win the championship. Oeorge Wright nnd Cal McVey, vet eran players of the champion Red Block ings of fifty years Kgo, spurned all offers to ride to the ball park.

Among the spectators at the opening game were six army officers, each minus one leg, lost In action, from the Walter Reed Hospital at Washington. Probably the only complete amateur baseball team to attend was the BIu menthal Credits of Cleveland. Detroit sent a good sited delegation, with most of the Detroit fans prepared to root for tho White Sox. Manager Moran announced that after a conference wth Manager Qleason It was decided that a ball batted into the temporary left field bleachers would be considered a homo run. The decision shows that Moran is not fearful that the White Sox have any longer drivers than he has on the Re'ds ; In other words, that Groh, Roueli and Duncan are ns liable to hoist the ball Into those stands as are Jackson or Felsch. the principal distance hitters of the Chicago team. Former Managers Bee sleds. Five former Cincinnati managers Jce Tinker, Clark Griffith, Hank O'Day, Buck Herzog and Christy Mathewson saw the neds' victory.

The Government thermometer registered 88, the socond hottest October 1 In the his tory of the Cincinnati Weather Bureau. Eddie Rouah, National League batting champlin, was' the field star of the day. He electrlfledthe crowd with thrilling one-handed catches. AH of them were difficult chances. He had eight putouts, one less than Daubert at, first base. The first ball pitched by Cfcotte dug Into Rath's ribs. The' Chicago pitcher followed Rath to flrBt base, Inquiring whether the. Injury was painful. He patted vRath on the back whe,n the Reds' second baseman said ho wasn't hurt. The first two balls pitched by Ruether were high and wide then he put over a strike.'

There was no freshman prac tice yesterday. of Great Diamond Drama Duncan then launched the Reds oft on a rally, letting a wide one go by. but driv ing tho next to right centre for a clean , single. Cicotte postponed tho agony by! mnking a tiazzllng stop of Kopf's torrid snianh In time to throw to Risborg for a forceout ot Duncan nt second. Rlsberg's slow throw to Gandll failed to double up Kopf. Larry raced to second when Nealfl sent a floater' back of short which Risberg knocked down but could not field. 1 On the first ball pitched Wingo wal loped to .right centre for a long slnglo, Kopf beating "Shano" Colllns's throw to the plate, Ncalo taking third and Wingo second on the whip. Ruether threw the elands Into a delirium by booming a ter rific htti over short that went roaring Into tho crowd In left centre for three bases, sending Nealo nnd Wingo across tho plate. Dutch did not linger on third for Rath kept up tho slaughter with a clout over Weaver's head that permitted RUcther to ncoro In a canter. When Daubert followed Rath's slnglo with a hot smash to right centre, scoring Rath from second, Gleason jumped up, beckoned Cicotte In from the box and waved for young Wilkinson to go tb tho rescue. With hanging head and every movo showing his dejection Ci cotte slowly walked off the field, the more sportsmanly of tho fans expressing their sympnthy for the fallen- Idol by cheerB and handclaps. Tho ripple of ap plause was drowned out In the general roar of exultation. Cincinnati fans smelted blood and their thumbs were kdown. The exulting roar still boomed across the field as Groh, first to face Wilkinson, lifted to Felsch and ended the Inning. (Jainlll I.ritrt OIT -With SliiKle. Fifth Inning Flrit Half A faint hope . flickered In tho breasts of the White Sox rooters, when Gandll led oft In the fifth with a screaming single to centre. Risberg started to bunt, changed his mind nnd swung, lifting a fly to Roush. On Schalk's hot grounder Groh made one ot his famousfalllng lunges, hurling himself on the ball and knock ing It down. Heine bounded up, whirled and pegged to Rath for a force out of Gandll. Rath grabbed Wilkinson's grounder near second, stepped on the bag and forced Schalk. Fifth Inning Second Halt The sun bothered Felsch on Roush's high fly, but bo managed to make the catch. Duncan, who started the bombardment of Cicotte, wns cheered as he came up and re sponded with a slnglo past Risberg. The Cincinnati hero died Mealing, however, Schalk to Risberg. Risberg pulled oft tho best Adding stunt of the game when ho went over behind second base and dug up Kopfs drive with one hand and whirled around for a throw that just pipped his man. It was a beautiful throw. Sixth Inning First Half Roush killed a lilt for J. Collins with a long run nnd a fine catch In deep left centre. E. Collins scratched a hit that bounded off Ruether's glove, but he had to sprint fast to beat Rath's quick recovery of the ball.. Weaver dropped a Texas Leaguer in back of Rath, E. Collins stopping at second. Jackson agnln failed, hitting tlio first ball down'to Daubert, who beat him in a race for the bag. This play advanced both runners, but Felsch was unequal to the emergency and filed to Nenle for the third out. Sixth Inning Second Half Neale led off with n single over second base. Wingo struck out- Ruether kept his batting average up to 1.000 with a line single, to right field, Ncalo stopping at second. The rally was killed when Rath lined to Risberg, who tossed to E. Col lins for a double play on Neale. Elter Warms TJp. Seventh Inning First Half Gandll filed to Neate. Rath threw out Risberg. Although Ruether was going strong, Moran took no chances' and started EUcr to warming up over In front of the right field seats. Schalk was nn easy victim for the third out. Groth to Dau bert. Ruether pitched only five balls In this inning. Seventh Inning Second Half D;au bert caught one on tho end of his bat and hit It so far to right field that It hopped Into tho crowd on tho first bound. This was a ground rule triple and Dau bert's third safe hit of the game. Groh scored him with tho seventh Cincinnati run on n hit that caromed oft Wilkin son's glovo and passed Risberg. Roush - buntd tnwnrd third for a sacrifice and was safe on caver s bad throw. The ball was knocked from Gandll's hands as the runner- collided with him after reaching the base, and Groh dashed to third and slid In ahead of Gandll's re turn throw. The Sox Infield moved in and Risberg passed Duncan's grounder to E. Collins, forcing Roush nt second base, Groh scoring by beating Colllns's fast return to the plate. Kopf hit Into a double piny, Risberg to K. Collins to Gandll. Another Ilux Clinnsre. l.tglitli Inning First Half McMuliln wns sent in to 'bat for Wilkinson and made good with a single to centre. J. Collins filed to Duncan. Roush ran over Into right field and robbed E. Collins of a hit. Weaver drove deep to Roush. Kle'hth Inning Second Half Lowder milk was the third pitcher to face the Reds. Nealo greeted the tall right, handor with a single to left, his third hit of the game. Wingo sacrificed, Low dermilk to Gandll. Ruether smashed to the centre field fence for another triple, which scored Neale. This brought the, Cincinnati pitcher's hits up to three tor a total of soven bases. Seldom has any world's series pitcher done such batting. Ruether remained on third base, as Risberg threw out Rath and did not at tempt to score even when Schalk chased a wild pl(ch forty feet back of the plate. Another wild shoot struck Daubert on tho forhend and knocked h!mtiat. Tho plajcrs rushed out from the Vlnclnnall bench, but Jnko was uf Immediately nnd said he had beou Btruck only a glancing blow. Groh walked, filling the bases. Roush forced Groh, E. Collins to Ris berg. Shoeless Joe Jackson Falls, Ninth Inning First Half Crushed and cowed by the overwhelming scqro against them, the White Sox players strove to perk up under tho lashing ot Kid Qleason and Eddie Collins, both of whom moved rapidly among tho Chlca goans snapping that the game wasn't over till the last man was out. With the mighty Jackson up Gleason begged Shoe less Joe to start something. The best tho IWhlto Sos eluscer could do. how ever, was to lift an easy fly to Neale. Felsch tried desperately to launch the Sox olt In a belated rally, driving the bHll far Into centre, but the greyhound Roush raced back nnd made n glittering corral. Roush'n grent catch took what, ever little starch wns left In the White Sox out of them. The other players watched Oandll listlessly as Chick grounded to Rath, who stooped up the ball and with a toes to Daubert drove the last nail In Cincinnati's opening triumph.

NEVILLE, YALE BACK, DISLOCATES ELBOW Will Be Out of Football Line up foror.tniglit First Scrub Team Scores 4 Times. Special Detpatch to Tin Sex. New Haven, Oct 1. Joe Neville, var sity halfback on Cupid Black's 1918 championship team, who registered both touchdowns made that year against Princeton and Harvard, dislocated his elbow to-day while making a tackle In a scrimmage with the second vdrslty. Neville will be out of the Blue lineup for two weeks, and his place will be taken by Aldrlch, who has Had no fresh man or varsity experience. Aldrloh comes from Fall River High School. Although ho Is not the consistent straight line plunger that Neville Is he shades the veteran as a broken field runner. To-day's workout began with defensive work forthe Varsity. The first scrub eleven was given the ball on the twenty yard line, and by using repeated downs It was able to score four touchdowns. Galllard registered with a lino plunge and Bault received a forward pass over the line. The other two scores came later when the scrubs were given theball on the three yard line. During this part of the practice Don Welles intercepted a forward pass and, eluding his tacklers, headed down the field for a touchdown, but was called back by Sharpe. The defensive workout concluded with the varsity holding the scrubs down on tho former's five yard line. Later the varsity lined up against the second varsity, which was run by Thome Murphy. Neville was hurt In this" practice. The scrimmage was scoreless. The varsity missed thrco points when Uraden's drop kick missed fire from the thirty yard line. Tho scrubs upon receiving possession of the ball tried open plays repeatedly. A twenty-five yard pass was completed and a twenty yard hurl over' the line barely missed completion. BrlnksKThorne, to whom Thome Mur phy 'owes his first name, witnessed the practice along "with Jacqttcs; fullback: on the 1916 eleven. Tho varsity to-day played as follows: Relnhardt nnd E. Welles, left end; Hamlll, left tackle; Trlppc, left guard; Callahan and Acosta, centre ; Zenner and Gait, right guard ; Walker, rlsht tackle; Allen and Otis, right end; La roche, quarterback ; .Neville and Aldrlch, left halfback ; D. Welles, right halfback ; Braden, fullback. Gait has developed a bad shoulder nnd Walker Is working out dally with a broken nose. ROPER SENDS TIGERS THROUGH LONG DRILL Rain Transforms Princeton Field Into Muddy Lake. Special Detpatch to T15E Sen. PniNCiTON', N. J., Oct. 1. Coach Roper sent his Tiger squad through a two hour workout this afternoon In spite of the fact that nn all day rain had transformed University Field into a small lake. Roper sent his men through their Inst drill In fundamentals before the Trinity game. Starting with falling on the ball and practising charg ing tho men went through ,u long hard session. Later in the day the six (earns lined up and ran through a brief .signal ses sion. Team A showed the same lineup ns It did yesterday and stayed out u lUlle litter than did the oilier letting. Coach Roper made frequent substltu? tlons In the varsity bactleld, but It seems likely that the same team that defeated tho second varsity yesterday so decisively will face Trinity, To-morrow Roper hopes to, stage an other scrimmage, weather permitting, while Friday will be devoted to a light workout and signal session. One fea ture of to-day's work was the time de voted to getting tho linemen to charge together. Tho halfbacks nilso were drilled in getting down the field to cover punts. The athletic association Is making plans to handle the largest opening gamo crowd that has ever como to Princeton. Several classes plnn to hold one day football reunions, and a fea ture of the day's programmo xvltl be a football meeting In Alexander Hall Saturday evening. STEVENS IN 10NQ DRILL. In Scrlnimntcc for an Hoar on Son-try Field. Rain did not hinder tho regular dally scrimmage between teams A and U of the Stevens varsity squad yesterday. For nn hour tho two teams fought stead. Ily on the soggy field. Tho coach took advantage of the day to train his men Ir. tho handling of a wet and slippery ball. The teams wero rearranged fcr the battle, as the coach is still trying out his material with a view to picking his first eleven next week tor the open ing game on' October 11 with Havcrford. Capt Bloaa and Hopkins were leading the two teams as usual, but to-day Ford and Goodale. fullbacks, were shifted pfrom ono team to the other. Herty and Degbuee were the halfbacks with Bloss, while Qulnn, Benjamin and Uajus had turns as halfbacks with Hopkins. He! nen, Carlson and Smith were still on the side lines, not being able to do more than limp around. Purvosk was In Hclnen's place as tackle. He Is one of the few new' men to get a position on tho lino. SI'.I.I, PLAYRIIS TO MAJORS. itimimnjiii. Vii.. Oct. 1. Riiin nf n number of Virginia Leaguo players has been announced by Secretary Fnrrell of the National Baseball Commission. In cluding Jesse Baker.

A, Ballanger, Norfolk, to Louisville, GIANTS WILL MEET 'MASSILLOH, OCT. 12 Gamo Will Launch Profession al Football Series on tho Polo Grounds. ny nnonoE ii. UNDKnwoon.i Masslllon, which with Canton, Ohio, has been the hotbed of profeoslonnl foot hall for many years, will be the eleven Charlie Brlckley's Giants will face on October 12 In the first game of the pro fessional football series on the Polo Grounds. Brlckley clinched the gnme with the Masslllon Tigers yesterday. That dASnllA iha a -Ta st mUlmn eaM Brlckley and John McGraw are gath- tugemer to represent, tne uiants, the New York team will have stubborn onnosltlon la vin t,A Ernie Cobbal, the former Notre Damo Biur, wno is piloting Masslllon, will bring to New York with him. Cobbal has a backfleld composed ot DorlfiR. tho rrca t Mnim TnH. M..n-. back; who almost singlehanded routed ni 1 . , Kilning o rmy eleven mree years ago; Shorty Miller of Penn State, Tal man' of Rutgers and Kenncworth of Le high. Herron of Pittsburg and Green of Dartmouth will guard the flanksv At centre will bo the former All American pivot man, Feck of Pittsburg, who will bo flanked on either irfdo by his former Pnnther teammates, Jock Sutherland and Seis. Henry of Washington and Jef ferson, another All American selection, nnd Thornhlll ot Pittsburg are tho reg ular tackles, with Welsback of Wash ington and Jefferson, , Nash of Rutgers and Fitzgerald of Notro Dame as re serves. That Brlckley was premature In an nouncing' the makeup of the Giants Is evinced from tho fact that some of tho men mentioned for positions deny hav ing agreed to play. Alfred O. Gennert of Princeton writes The Sun that ha never has been approached by represen tatives of the Giants and that ho unal. ternbly Is opposed to professional foot ball. Gennert says (ennert's Statement. "The use of my name In this connec tion 'was wholly unwarranted and Inex cusable. I have never been approached on this subject by any representative ot tho National Exhibition Company (the Giants) or any other professional club, I would not play football for money on Sunday or any other afternoon. I h llevo that any attempt to professionally football Is a direct attack on the best traditions of the game and (should be resented by all loyal devotees." Brlckley acknowledges a mistake was made In the announcement that Gennert would play for the Giants but says he has verbal agreements with most of tho others mentioned to play at the Polo Grounds. The former Harvard hero says that since the announcement of the professional series he has been be sieged with requests from gridiron celeb rities for positions on the eleven Tl.o first practice will bo held at the Pi l.i Grounds on Saturday and the full eleven It is, expected will rendezvous for a workout on Sunday. A Family- Affair. Football Is getting to bo more th.n ever a family affair. Down at Penn sylvania both Lud and Alex Wray nnd Heine, and Roy Miller are In a fratricidal fight for positions on the Red and Bluo eleven. Tho Horween brothers. Ralph and Arnold of Harvard, the Welles ot Yale', the two Redmonds of Rutg-rs and tho Esqulrols of N. Y. U. are keepli'f. the family names In print. Kveryon knows that when Yale and Prlnceto, lake tho field agalnt each other n . , month. Capt Tom Callahan of the Bull dogs will have to face his brother M".' on the Tigers. Old, familiar gridiron names are creep Ing up. At New Haven a nephew of the famous "Pudge" Hoffelflnger Is try ing for a position on tho Bluo. So are tho nephews of the two famous Yale ends, Tom Shevlin and Scanlon. Dart mouth haa another Holcombe brother in Its lineup. At Brown Crowther, n brother of the all Amerlcnn back. Is In football harness, and at Cornell Shuler, a brother of the famous Cornell back of 1913-14, Is prominent In gridiron do ings. Princeton of course would not ba content without a Poe In moleskins. This season tho Princeton Poe Is a nephew of the famous Johnny. Yost In ITminl Porm, "What iocs Yost think ot the eleven?" was nsked a Michigan grad who re cently returned from a trip to his alma m.iter. "Why, it's the same old thing with old 'Hurry Up,' " laughed the Wol verine. "Tho cagey old boy Is Just as careful as ever about saying anything optimistic. "-'Well, we'ro all fixed up as regards to cripples." was one of his first remarks to me. 'Outside of centre, left guard, right guard, right tackle and left end, our line Is perfect Peach went to the olubhouse lnmo this afternoon. Ham mels.ls crippled. Czysz can't even bend over, Loucks Is battered up, Hugh WIN flon not even Is In uniform, Dunne re fuses to fight and Barnes Li limping badly.' "But I thought the squad looked mighty husky nnd fast It's a bit too early to mnko any predictions. It looks ns if we have somo rattling good ma terial, and that's all wo ask with old 'Hurry Up' nt the helm." Ilnyniuii Star nt Wllllnnia. It Is doubtful If any college eleven boasts a Btar of purer ray" serene than Capt. Ben Boynton of Williams. There Isn't a back on the gridiron who unites so many desirable football qualities as the Williams leader. Ben is hack In -all his ancient glory this fall. Two years In tho army have given the Texan added weightand strength without affecting his speed. It Is a treat to seo a player of Boynton's calibre In action. Zink, tho Amherst quarterback, Is an blher player who would fit In on almost any eleven. Ills splendid all around play In the 'Columbia game hero lust season was a rovelatlon. From all imports, the ro,d haired Amherst back Is going Just as strong this season. His too Is .levor as ever, he Is picking out his openings In tho samo old way nnd giving Just as much trouble to the opposing ends. It begins to look more than ever that Eddie Casey Is another Ned Mahan. Ed die's Increased weight has not slowed htm up any nnd beef Is what he needed more than anything else.
