PHILADELPHIA. Oct. 2.——-Betting
on the result of'the world’s series he-
come brisk yesterday; with the lAth-
letics on. the Alougend of the odds at
'19 to 49. Several bets ranging from
$50 to $200 were made at this figure
at. the ‘Binghanl 'House and at Green’s
illotel, the local bottors claiming to
halve inside dope that Mach
something up his sleeve in the pitch-
ing line that has not. been revealed.
Just what this something is they re:
fuse to tell. Much of the local money
is being sent to New York, where bet-
tors say they can obtain 10 to 7, with
the, Athletics on the Short end. The
“wise" money that always looketor a
percentage apparently will [not be
placed on the series this year, so for
as the Philadelphia bottom are con-
cerned. . .

. WORLD’S SERIES
.._.__.... l
Betting on the outcome wot the
world's series baseball games, which:
open in New York, October 7, started
at 10 to 6. It muttered not whether'
the odds were wanted on Philadel-l
phiu or New York. 10 to 6 were the}
Iflgures.‘ That is if the better happen-
ed to be in Philadelphia when the.
national commission announced the.
date for the opening game. there was'
money to place on the Athletics at it)
to 6; if he happened to be in New
York the odds were 10 to 6 that the
Giants would win. ‘ ‘
Hence the unusual situation pre-
vailed that batters in both cities were
willing to give“ odds on their home
team. This situation obtained for
several days until Larry Doyle, coir
tuin oi? the Giants, was injured in an
automobile accident and Center Field~
or Snodgruse strained a tendon in his
leg. 'iieportn that Doyle and Sued-
graas might be unable to play in the
series were instantly reflected and
batters in New York were unwilling ‘
to risk more than even money on
their team in the taco of these re-
ports.
liy far the greatest amount almon-
ey plal'ed in the first tow days after
the opening date was announced was
waged in socalled freak bate. There
was no end of these. Reports from
