Will GIVE YALE GREAT CREW

NEW RAVEN, Conn.,, Oct. s.
The greatest year in Yale rowing Is
forecast in the Yale Alumni Weekly
which. through Albert II. Barclay,
'91, one of the best known among the
alumni who have followed this sport
az observers, analyses conditions as
the training period begins. 1t Is
pointed out that no American college
has ever before had the advantage Of
three professional English coaches
working as a unit The great increase
in the number OF men who have gone
into rowing since the war has made
three coaches necessary.
The analysis emphasizes that Head
Coach Corderey has modified the Eng
Ijsh stroke by lengthening the slide
increasing the leg work and cutting
down the body swing. The broader
bladed American car will be used and
the English shells less and less. The
men will sit over the keelson and not

no uncomfortable part of the days
work for the players who are COM

been fortunate enough to capture q
foul ball knocked into the stands,
were out in force Immediately after
yesterdays game. Hundreds crowded
outside the clubhouses Of the rival
teams waiting for the players to ap-
pear. As soon as either q Giant
or q Yaknee stuck his head outside
the well. guarded door he became the
center of q swiriing mass Of souve-
mir seekers, all anxious to have him
sign his name to something or
other.
And in many cases the players
obliged their besiegers. I'm afraid
I'll get writer's cramp," laughingly
said one player as he signed his
steenth souvenir program for a bud
ding young fanette Of no more than
10 years. Frankie Frisch was one
victim all seemed intent upon grab
bling. Three or four times frankie
started to leave the Giants club
house only to be compelled to duck
! back as the fans started to rush to
ward him. They were not all anx-
ious to have him sign something
| for q great many in the throng were
students from Fordham, where h.
learned to play baseball. They were
anxious to carry him triumphantly
down Eighth avenue on their shoul
ders. but Frisch had received strict
instructions from McGraw to aver
possible injury by avoiding any such
demonstrations.

Carl Mays was the ioglcal seiecioh'
of Manager Miller Higgins OF the
Yanks. The subway delivery spe-
cialist stood the Giants on their heads
in the first game and Hug must use
him again today or send Harry
Harper to the mound. Harper, a
wonderful pitcher when he is right,
is indispensable as a rule. Choosing
him to pitch is the same as buying
q lottery ticket. So Mays looked
like the hod carrier. .... .
F., Giant fans and critics who have
been watching McGraw's tactics be.
fieve that he would shoot Phil
Douglas back at the Yankees today.
Douglas Is one Of the biggest and
strongest pitchers In either major
league He can stand lots OF work.
Two days rest is enough for him.
II he can come back today at all he
stands a fine chance of winning.
according to Giant philosophy. be.
cause no one expects to see Mays
pitch another such game as he did
in the opener.
Records May Fall.
(, With a game tucked into the bat
bag the Giants today looked like a
team that can carry the series quite
a ways, and II they succeed all
sorts of records win go by the boards.
Paid attendance to date has already
passed the 100 900 mark and receipts
have overshot $335.000. which is a
record for the first three games.
II the teams should play eight
games, more than $780, 900 fans will-wit
ness them and more than $750,000 will
be taken In at the box offices. No pre-
Iious series has had the dimensions
of this one for possible attendance or
receipts, and because Of the prices and
the New York monopoly 1t may be
quite awhile before another series ap-
proaches It.
The weather today was threatening.
Overcast skies greeted the fans when
they crawled out of their downcys
this morning, and the weather man pre-
dicted rain with a possible clearing OF
the atmosphere by game time.
Expect Huge Crowd.
The biggest crowd Of the series was
expected to witness today's game. This
being Saturday practically every New
Yorker had a half day off and every
one who thought he had a chance to
get into the Polo Grounds started that
way shortly after the noon hour.
Where 36,509 paid to enter the Brush
stadium yesterday II was estimated
that fully SO, 900 would attend today's
game as paid customers. and at least
ten thousand would be turned away.
Betting on the world series, which
found odds strongly in favor of the
Yanks Friday siinmered down today.
The Yanks, with two victories to one
for the Giants are still favorites, but
the odds dropped back to to from
n plane Of to 1 in many instances.
