FOR SEAT BLUNDER
Mounted Police Charge
Faithful Followers, Who
Turn to Giants.

BOSTON, Mass, Oct. 16-President
James r. McAleer and Treasurer Rob-
ert McRoy, of the Red Sox, are today
the chief members of the 'in bad" club.
and II is causing them no little worry,
The Royal Rooters." 500 strong. who
have been accompanying the Red Sox
to New York, roofing for them with all
their might. have turned against the
local magnates, and today are expected
to cheer for the Giants.
Before yesterdays game the Royal
Rooters," behind their band, paraded
upon the field only to find that McRoy
had not reserved their seats for them,
as he had done hitherto. Then Ave
mounted policemen dashed up and
rushed them back to the b.sachers,
striking at them with their clubs, The
Royal Rooters'' were silent throughout
the game, and their band was not
heard.
After the contest the whole club, be-
hind the band. paraded upon the field
and cheered the Giants. Then they
jeered and hissed McAleer and McRoy,
stripping off their Red sox armbands
and forswearing allegiance to the local
management.
It is believed that the whole club OF
rooters will cheer for the Giants today.
Both McAleer and McRoy are trying to
square things. but the fans here look
upon them both as foreigners" and
declare they will stick to the Giants.

BOSTON. Mass, Oct. 16.-This is
an episode. a picture of an idol
broken, the leveling Of a man before
those who had exalted him. And the
idols name Is Wood-greatest Of his
league. right arm Of Boston in base
balls bitterest series-foolish Wood,
who baited the mad Giants only to
fall before them. And this Is the
story of the fan.
The dust Of the base lines was
dancing with the wind as the Fen
way blackened with people-great
smudges Of them spreading over the
stands as some dark liquid spreads
over vast sheet Of blotting paper.
With the wind had come cold-sharp
teeth Of the north that bit into peoples
faces. made the clap-clapping Of falling
seats sound as lumber being dumped
upon a frozen road. And as the Fenway
filled. as one by one the claps died away.
as the empty places become covered.
and the confused shuffling OF inde-
tramping. there appeared on the worn
turf just before the Boston dugout the
light-hanneled form Of Wood.
A gray coat-sweatcr was buttoned
tightly around his chest. Thick wooden
stockings encased his logs-the man
couldn't have been cold. Yet he moved
about as In a chill Up and down. he
walked about, his head now cast to the
ground. now turned to the bLeachers,
where sat the faithful who had seen
him grow from the rawest recruit into
the stanchest of Seterans-if you can
call a twenty-two-year-o boy a vet
eran. And as watched him-uncer-
tain. restless, Fastening to and fro.
ostensibly to ward off the cold, yet
knew because he was nervous, tried
to imagine his thoughts.
To me he was thinking Of cloudy
afternoon In New York-that Friday
and the battle II brought to the Harlem
meadows. the grim fight with Tesreau
and the secret cost Of victory. No doubt
he pictured the emotions Of those nine
racking innings. the wavering moments
between success and disaster. saw
again his delivery grow weaker as the
game grew older. Doubtless It came to
him-how first he had baffled these
iron: then how little by little, they had
solved his attack. swung their bats
with deadly aim, slowly yet relentessly
torn wide the hole in his armor.
All this he must have seen-the won
derful fielding Of the men behind him
the long arm Of Wagner. cutting dowr
hit after hit; the fortunate stiffening OF
er, more gaping, more costly. No longer
were his curves, his speed, his curves
saving him-only the brilliant rallyine
Of the men behind him.
And after Boston had fought through
in safety. staving on the tornado thai

By GRANTLAND RICE.

BOSTON, Oct. 16.-Provided the

bug emporiums, BOBBY matches, and
nut hostelries don't cut in and cart
away both athletes and non-combat-
ants, the most decisive single battle
ever staged In the run of a great
nations greatest sport will tell the
story Of a championship fight which
may stand unequaled for another
century.
But once before, under the modern
system, have two ball clubs ever
gone to seven games to end series.
Today two clubs have not only
.whirled, slashed, reellI and fought
their way to seven games, but having

ception that one or the other must

1t doesn't require one on the inside
to grip an AFFAIR like this. The aver

Both teams may battle grimly and
stanchly to the finish, or there is an
equal chance that one may break, as
the Red sox broke yesterday.
Wood needs more heart and courage
today for this next start than he needs

the proper inside lining in the past.
he is up against a deal before which
