tickets were snapped up in record
time on the biail order basis with an
over-subscription ef 15000 when
club attuehees suspended the count.
Some of these tickets fell into the
hands of speculators nnd High prices
were asked. *
A battle of southpaws was indi-
cated for the opening clash. Man-
ager Hoggins announced that Herb
Pennock wculd tws and Manager
Hornsby picked Wee Willie Sherdei.
No dismay was caused among the
offensive forces by the news that
southpaws would hurl. A total of
five left handed batsmen may be
counted among the regulars of the
two teams. Ruth Gehrig and Combs
stand nearer first base when they go
to bat for the Yankees and South-
worth and Bottomley bat from'the
off side for the Cardinals.
The National league entry does not
lack support t.a spite of the fart that
the first two games arc played on
alien territory. Many St. Louis on
thu^jasts could not wait until the
teams reached the Mound City Tues-
day Rnd**o moved to New York to
be among the 65000 present.
The sentiment vote was being cast
aim' st solid 1^ for the visitors. St.
Louis has not had pennant for 58
vears while a few years ago the
Yankees for n time threatened a
monopoK on American champion-
ships. • •
r.nthusiasm of youth meets the ex-
perience of years. The Cardinals
won a pennant with one of the
youngest teams in the majors. The
Yankees' roll call shows eleven
players who have previously played
for baseball’s highest honor.
Speculation was largely at even
money but some odds if six to five
were reported on the Yankees to win
the first game and the same price on
ultimate victory in the series.
Managers Huggins and Hornsby
publicly declared theij- faith in their
players before the opening game. At
the same time each disclaimed any
thought of hidding "hi* opponent
lightly. Interest was added to the
