Polo Grounds. n. Y, oct. l0.-The
New York Giants having executed. as
they declare. a strategic retirement to
prepared positions on the Polo Grounds,
found themselves today confronting the
Chicago White sox in the third game
Of the worlds series. The champions OF

the wall to ward off the onrushing
remnant winners of the American lea
que who have captured two straight
games.

ward game time. A wintry rasping
wind scudded across the field and made
the fans shiver. The playing field was
unblanketed and Ground Keeper Henry

in good shape. though the outer mead
ows were somewhat slow
AL Demaree and Jefr Tesreau took
turns on the pitchers mound in giving
the Giants a long batting practice. 1t

feeding the balls around the Giants
knees in order that they might get
plenty of practice to meet Cicotte's low
ball pitching.
II was announced that Umpire o.
Ioughlin will be at first base. Evans
at second and Rigler at third.
Before the players took the field. they
gathered around the plate and an Amer
