FIRE Commissioner Robert Adamson,
issued Special Order No. 10 yesterday
forbidding anything bigger than a one
alarm fire In the greater city through
on: the day. Whereupon Police Commits
sioncr Arthur Woods issued a special or
der forbidding crime in any OF the Ave
bcroughs forthwith.
Then Bob and Art cranked TN and
headed toward Ebbets Field to preside
al: the opening game Of the annual base
ball championship series between the
Police and Fire departments. About all
the Deputy C'mishes also mi up
and followed. SO did all the police and
nre chiefs and everybody else to the
number Of 10000. which IL nearly the ca
pacity OF the ball grounds.
Weeks ago when the question came
up as To whether or not the first game
OF the series should be played at the Polo
Grounds or In the wilds OF Brooklyn.
Bob proposed to Art that they play eigh-
teen holes Of golf. the winner to select
the place for the opening game. The

around the paddle wheel till Mary threw
out her anchor of Brielle. y. j., wher-
ever that is.
With this In mind the Poiice Commits
sioner refused TO play eighteen holes to
dtcide where the first baseball game
should be played. With the summer pass
ing rapidly there was no time, Art in
sisted to Bob. Therefore they tossed a
coin in regular worlds series fashion.
Bob won from Art. and hob selected
Sunday, Septembe IS. and the Polo
Grounds for the opening Jane. So 1t
ruined and the first game was played
yesterday in Brooklyn.
Important Details Firat.
Just who won the first championship
baseball game yesterday and who lost
could Of course be told right here. I'M
pulsiveness OF that sort. however. in
s,antly would destroy all element of
suspense for the reader. who then would
have next TO no Jason TO bother further
with this narrative. Besides. there were
many things to attract ones attention
at the field yesterday before the game
got under way at all.
There were the celebrities. for in.

lice C'msh box. back of the nrst base
dugout. and in and around the Fire

glaring haughHly toward the police side.
and vice versa.
Right down in front on the GOtt-
strafe-the-F Hre-Department side of the
grand stand. for instance. the Police

was an Assistant District Attorney. was
attended by the entire stan OF the Dis
trict Attorneys office. and might have
run even another week had the play
wright waited until he entered the Police
Department and issued an order for
the cops to attend with their entire
famikes But ne was hasty about a
production.
BE that as II may. Magistrate Dan
Murphy also accompanied the Police
Commissioner. So did Mr.. and Mrs.
Charles Chapin-Charley glarlng his
hate toward the opposite stands with
such "A glare AS "A boss might give
TO a cub who reports ten minutes late
at the Office. Bertram fBert) Cruger,
Mayor Mitchel's executive secretary. and
Chief Inspector Max Schmittberger and

the police side.
And singing songs of hate from the
Fire Department or left field side, OF
the stands was not only Golfist Adam
