Rowland is not counting on an easy
victory. ~.
"a team that won so easily as New
Work " he admitted, deserves whole
some respect. McGraw has great de-
fensive segregation; one also tnat is
possessed of a mighty wallop. There
are no soft spots anywhere in the hne-
up. And still | do not think that even
the National League champions carry
q more deadly attack than Detroit.
Praise for Tigers
Detroit always has had great dit
fculty in scoring on the white SoA
pitchers this year. I'll be sadly ms
taken If the Giants do not experience
equal trouble. think my pitching
staff better qualified than that OF NC
Graw to minimize scores IN a shOt
series. McGraw must depend largely
on southpaw pitching, We have my
southpaw pitching. .,
"tbat we have no small advantage IN
PLAYING the first two games at home.
There is no going behind results ana
our home record speaks for Itself.
Comiskev Park will be utterly strange
10 the Giants We are almost as ia
miliar with the Polo Grounds as we
are with our home stamping ground.
However" concluded Rowland, we
will win or lose on our merits. We
will try to take no mean advantage OF
New York. NcGraw will be welcome
10 have his team work out at Comlskey.

President Harry n. Hampstead, OF
the Giants, who is in charge OF the sale
OF reserved seats for the local games,
declared Yesterday that already the de-
mand had quadrupled the supply AS
vet no tickets have been issued. Ihey
have not come from the printers.
Applications are being recorded by
time file and where possible the eari-
est ones will receive greatest courtesy.
However. IL is the policy of the club to
take care OF regular patrons In PREF
erence 70 visitors. For many weeks
prior to the last home games OF the
Giants the club kept check on the
names Of its steady patrons. The ap-
plications of these, so far as possible,
will first be honored.
President Hampstead IS determined
10 DO everything within his power 10
keep the reserved tickets out OF the
hands Of spectators. Unusual pro-
lection is afforded the public this year
in that nothing but the boxes and up.
per tier stand seats are reserved. All
the lower grand stand and bleachers 49,
approximately 25,000 seats-will be put
on sale each day as during the regular

no opportunity Of trafiicking in these
general admission wares.
