RULES FOR WORLDS SERIES
Manaoer McGraw of Champion Giants
 Makes Two Suggestions for Reg uIatlon of Games.

The worlds series rules will most likely be amended before next year as a result of suggestions made by Manager McGraw Of the Giants to Garry Herman. chairman of the Ma tional league. The little Napoleon and the czar of the younger major league buried the hatchct after several years of enmity.
 McGraw made two suggestions which the two members of the na- tiona1 commission thought well or, and which they said would likely be adopted before many months have flown.
 During the recent worlds series in Boston. when the Giants lit upon Joe Woods delivery in the first inning and scored six runs. the entire New York team was on the anxious seat for fear that their great lead would count for naught, as the clouds were gathering thick and fast at the time, and 1t looked doubtful if the teams could play more than three or four innings. In this case unless they played the full five innings, the Giants would have done all their cannonading for nothing.
 The clever little manager suggested that a rule be made for future world s series games that if rain stopped a game, no matter at what stage, play be resumed the following day where the two teams left of, rain checks be- l Ing provided the fans so that they could see both sections of the game. The other rule that McGraw sug- gested was to let all the fans who at tend a tie game see the play-off free | of charge, their seat checks being suf- fcient credential to get them into l the park
 In McGraw's opinion a fan is enti-
 tied to see the play-off for nothing
 as when he goes to the box office and
 puts up his money he does it with the expectation of seeing the teams bat
 tie to a decision. When they play a
 tie he is disappointed
