 Conspicuous among today's arrivals smaller places. In all there are ex-
 were a number of prominent baseball
 writers from major league cities and pected to be over 300 workers. includ- 1 ing the telegraph operators when the Giants and Red Sox cross bats. An extra press box has been provided, and
 over 100 wires have been strung into the Polo Grounds.

McGraW has been credited with hay 1 ing decided to try new policy with i pitchers by taking out good man i after a certain period of play. in. an- ticiPation that he may be liable to I mlow up.
 Many fans, however, do not believe
 such an experiment should be tried, and it Is doubtful if McGTaw will re- l lieve any man in the box until he Is l absolutely certain that such a course l is necessary to save the game.
