BOSTON WINS
FINAL GAME
AND SERIES
(Continued From Page One)
when the amounts were a tew hun
dred less. Neither the total attend
ance nor money taken in at the box
office surpassed the banner records
made in 1911 and 1912, but the amount
divided among the players establishes
a new standard for money won by the
contestants. *
The attendance for the fiwe games
this season amounted to 162,354 and the
receipts 6385,590.50. Of this sum the
players received 6162,927.45; each club
692,052.02 and the National Commission
638,559.05. The Boston club as winners
divided 697,756.47 on a basis of twenty
five shares, which the players are
understood to have agreed upon as the
method of apportionment. This would
allow 63,910.26 to the share. Twenty
three Brooklyn players, as losers, di
vide 665,170.96 into equal shares of 62.
834.82 each. Owing to the fact that
there are more players to share in the
winners money this year, the in
dividual share is not a record.

FORMER BOY SCOUTS
ORGANIZE ANOTHER
BODY FOR TRAINING
< ^Pfrial To The Advertiser)
New York. Oct. 12—Eight hundred
former United States boy scouts living
on the west side of this city have
formed an organization called the
junior marine scouts, for training in
th** duties of United States marines.
Th«- organization is in no way affH
inted with the United States boy
scouts, and plans are under way to
make the body national In scope and
character.
The Junior Marine Scouts have tak
en up as their special plea to others
that the training “they will receive on
land and sea is of greater benefit*
than either land or sea training taken
separately. It’s a two-in-on© service,
both naval and military, they argue,
and they look to see the idea spread
over the entire country.

Electrification of
Steam Roads Offers
Great Field, He Says
(Associated Press.)
ATLASTIC CITT. N. J., Oo», »>.—
Election of officers and a historical re
view of the industry by Frank J. |
Sprague, who promoted and built the
first commercially successful trolley
line In Richmond, Va., in 1888, were
the features of today’s sessions of the
annual convention of American Elec
tric Railway Association.
L. S. Storrs, president of the Con
necticut Company, New Haven, was
chosen president.
In his address Mr. Sprague said the
great field of electric transportation
lay In the electrification of steam roads '
which he declared was dependent al
most entirely upon financial consid
erations. He suggested, however,
that by the construction of power
houses large enough to supply current
to an extended territory and by the
linking of these large power houses
together it might be possible that the
question of expense in the electrifica
tion of eteam roads could be solved.
Several affiliated organizations also
elected officers today, L. C. Bradley of
Houston, Texas, being chosen tc head
the transportation and traffic associa
tion.
