matter the entire club has not been in
action for a week on account OF the
weather.
Lewis Pounds, president of the Borough
of Brooklyn, also is resting in order TO
be in good condition when the time comes
TO throw out the first ball.
Mr.. Pounds denied yesterday a report
that he would make the opening toss with
a side arm motion copied from Jack War
hop. He declares that although he has
been In politics many years he does moth
ing underhand.
Shannon's sd Regiment Band will play
before the game, which will begin at 1915
o'clock. A delegation from Philadelphia
plans TO attend In order 10 make a gift
to Danny Murphy, once of the Athletics.
Murphy has been unable to learn the
nature OF the gift. but he feels certain
that it must be a travelling bag, as he
already owns three.
He says that he never has received a
present at any baseball park except
travelling bag. and he does not see why
any break should be made in the custom.
The scores of the Superbas, the Yam

Even the Grass Will Be
New When Park Opens
on Monday.
TOM SEATON RESTING
FOR MOUND DUTY
Giants Believe They Can Hit
Their Stride if Rain
Only Let's Up.
By HAYWOOD BROUN.

When the Tip-Tops begin their home
season on Monday they will receive the
fans In what will be practically brand
new baseball park. The big grandstand
is OF concrete and steel construction. ex-
cept the roof and the seats. Of which
there are between 10000 and 1900. Even
the grass on the playing field is brand
new.
A force OF about 600 men was busy yes
terday putting the finishing touches on
the new park. The stand Is nearly three
quarters rooted. and a small army OF
riveters is driving home the last bolts
that will hold the big structure in place.
The grand stand is OF the most mod
ern type. with broad concrete runways
leading up to the various tiers. The dia-
mond has been sodded and rolled until
II looks like the green baize OF a billiard
table. Only the outfeld, perhaps, will
not be in perfect readiness for the spikes
of the players on Monday.
The broad stretch has been seeded and
the young grass shows green above the
earth. but II is tender. and, unless the
opening day be dry. is likely TO prove
treacherous under foot.
In fact. old Washington Park is now in
"Tip-Top" condition.
