A week from Wednesday the Red Sox and Chicago Cubs will elash in the opening game of the world's series. The National Commission have announced their plans, which were jdrawn up on he assumption that Boston would wiu the pennant in the American League. The Cubs have clinched the flag in the Na- tional, but the Sox must win al jeast four more games before they have the fiag cinched. Should the Sox and Cubs come togéther in the annual fall classic, and it is likely that they will, it will be the first time in the nistory of the game that Boston and Chi- cago, the leaders in the world's series affairs, have come together The Boston fans have had several | opportunities to see the champions | of the National and American League clash for the highest hon- ors in baseball, as Boston has been a contender in 1903, 1912, 1914, 1915 and 1916. The Red Sox have: taken part in each classi¢ with the | exception of the year 1914, and the | Braves were the contending team | that season. | The fans in the W indy City have | witnessed the champions ®of 190v. | 1907 world's championship. The Cubs were the contenders in 1906, | 1907 and 1908, and again in 1910.1 while the White Sox were the Ohi- | cago entrants in 1917. In 1906 the! Cubs and White Sox each won the championship of their league, and | the Windy City fans had an oppor-| tunity to witness each game in the series. { A peculiar feature of the series | between the Sox and Cubs is the fact that Manager Fred Mitchell will rely on two southpaws, Tyer and' Vaughn to pull him through, | while Barrows will no doubt send | Joe Bush, Carl Mays and Sam Jones! afteg the Cubs, with Ruth in re-| serve. Mitchell will have Hendrix | and Walker 'to call on if necessary. | The chances are, however; that Ty- | uer, Vaughn and Douglas will hear the brunt of the work for the Cubs. The Sox will be up against a tough proposition if Tyler and Vaughn manage to hold their pre-| sent formi, as the Barrow men have not shown much against the star left-handers of the American League this past season. Against | this due of left-handers Ed. Barrow | has but one southpaw, Babe Ruth The Babe, no doubt, will look af- ter the left field assignment ip the | mapority of the games, as the Bar-| row men will need his batting eye. | Mitchell believed that his left- handers, Vaughn and Tyler, will he very effective against the Red Sax, as Barrow has several left-handed batiers in his line-up. Mitchell figures he may have a chance to get away with Tyler and Vaughn in the entire series, and the teams will have a day's rest in mak- ing the jump between the tw, cit- ies... Vaughn and Tyier, however, wiil not be able to go through the seiies without some assistance from | Herdryx or Douglas. The dope, according to reports from Chicago, is to open with Vaughn, and then shoot him back in the third game of the series. This means he will have two davs' rest. Carl Mays will no doubt start the series for Bostun, and. then again Barrow is apt to cioss the Cubs and gerd Babe Ruth after the opening game. We no longer have 'any doubts about that bout between Dempsey and Willard, Jess announces that he will not defend his title during the war, but we hope he stays longer in the six-round battle than Fulton last- ed. If he don't the man who stages a bout when the war is over will find that J. W. is a very unpopular gent. Ban Johnson says he is "tickled to death" that the world's series is going to be played. This sounds fine coming from _ the American league chief after the way he kick- ed against staging the series under any conditions. The last week of professional base- ball for the period of the war has been started. Many a sport writer will lose his job in a short time for without Ban Johnsofi's hot air how will any man fill a paper. | Eddi» Gerard, manager and cap- tain of the Ottawa team, is now conned with the M. € Neate Lumber Company in a travelling capacity, and business may prevent him playing hockey this winter. "Lord" Ryron, the veteran major league umpire, who is 47 years of age, tried to enlist in the aviation service of the US. army, but was turned down. Even ball fans do not love a loaf- er. Baker pronounced the game as non-essential. ' to Replace the Big Leagues. ------ If professional baseball should be done away with in the near future, there will be plenty of other sports be amateur baseball, semi-profes- sional baseball, horse racing, auto- mobile racing, golf, tennis, billiards, bowling and all that sort of thing. Then, too, some of the old sports which were sent te the ash heap a long while ago may be brought back. In Detroit bicycle clubs may be formed, and there is talk in some quarters' of going back to bicycle racing, to big road races, such as flourished in the long ago and al that sort of thing. Then, too, we may have bicycle racing on the short circuit tracks From the War such as we had a few years ago, for several of thise tracks are still in Zone existence.

In a word, since everybody likes to ride in the front seat, the aim was to place all occupants as near that point as possible, This leaves the driver's movements unimpeded by other oc cupants and his vision clear on all sides, It is essentially an owner-driver"s car--this big, handsome roadster--so in the ease the driver is usually the buyer.
