the Detroit Tigers are going to win the American league pennant and want to gamble on it, you have to put $3 to win in Jack Doyle's book at 42nd and Broa'dway. If you believe the New York Giants will be the other team in the world series, you have to wager $2 to win a $1. A lot of people think it's just like picking money up in the street to be on the Tigers and Giants at these prices because Doyle reports a heavy play on the two favorites. "The big money is now beginning to come in," said Doyle. "Most of the early season bets were chicken feed compared to some of the play I've been getting lately." National Hot Race Doyle-, who has been taking bets or.

baseball for more than 20 years, thinks the National league race is going to be one of the hottest finishes ever. He quotes 2-1 against the Cardinals winning, and 3-1 against the Cubs. "They are so close in that league that I change' my odds from day to day," commentedl.Doyle. "I'm getting a lot of bets by mail from the West on the Cards and Cubs. Some of these bettors have dated their letters a day or two ahead to try to take advantage a better price." The partly-bald, Irish betting commissioner quotes a complete line on all clubs in both leagues, but says the betting is-on only five or six teams.

His price' against the Boston Braves, last in the National is 1000-1. No Play on Braves "The Braves are- really a million to one said DoyleV "rather than the 1000-1 I quote but nobody would be crazy enough to bet on them at. any price. I never make a price on the Braves but what I think of the 1914 team which rose from the cellar to win the world's championship. I had just started out betting on baseball then and I took about $300 at odds of 1000-1 before the season started.

When they started their sensational climb in July I got worried. "A few nights later I was dining with Arnold Rothstein and happened to mention I was holding the Boston bets. had made a lot of money at the racetrack by buying up long shot bets which the bookies didn't want to handle I was short of cash, so I told Rothstein: Til sell those bets for Quick Sale "Rothstein aid, so I turned over $200 to him and kept the other $100.
