"Unsettied weather conditions’' was

Whether the weather forecaster be
right or wrong, the fact remains that
"unsettled conditions” is the keynote
to the whole situation on the eve of
the playing of th© inikial contest of

as to the result of the first game, but

the series appears to promisu sehsa-
