It would be nicer if they could have started earlier so that youngsters who are really sports fans would all be able to see the game. I think it's being a little shortsighted. These are the paying fans of tomorrow. Several young fans, however, said because the games start late, there's time to dispense with school work before it starts. It's the World Series .
Baseball is life.
Among younger students, many of those watching the games said they were heading to bed an hour or more before the end. Others, however, can't wait that long, turning on televisions or radios in their bedrooms. Some schools say the bigger impact of the series will be felt when the winning team is honored during the traditional ticker tape parade in Manhattan. My assistant principal asked if she can go down to the parade to take attendance. She may not be far off.
