Polo Grounds, New York, Oct. A.
The two New YORK ball clubs-thc
Giants and the Yankees-engaged to-
day in their second family fight for
I the honors of the annual worlds
series. Thirty-five thousand specta-
tors made up of local citizenry, with
hundreds from out of town fiocked
to the Polo grounds to see the en-
roglio between the winners of the Ma
tional and American leaguers renew
ed after an armistice since last Octo-
Der when the Giants captured the
Yanks bag and baggage.
1t was an ideal day for the game.
A coppery sun glowed from un-
clouded sky and there was mid
summer warmth in the October air
"If this weather holds we shall
!. see some pitching" said Bob Shaw
key, the Yankee hurler, 'for you
Z can't beat the old sun for oiling up
southpaw bones.'
New York took it's local worlds
series calmly. AS New York was bound
to win. anyhow, there was no mad
rush for the unreservod sections in
the upper grandstands and bleachers.
Brass Bands There.
There was plenty Of room for the
early commerl; and there were seats
to spare at noon. The reserved Sec
tons in the lower grandstand, with
every seat sold, did not fill up until
game time.
Of course, the usual brass band
was on hand to keep the early COM
ers in good humor. Nick Altrock
and AL. schaacht did their baseball
clowning acts before the game.
While the Yankees we're taking
their fielding practice, Governor Mil
Ter of New York, and Former Gov
ernor A. Smith, the democratic nom-
inee for governor, who will run
against Governor Miller, paraded
across the field with band to their
seats in box. Christy Mathewson
was espied in the press section. He
haE ujst made winning fight against
tuberculosis and was given a big
ovation.
Pay Grant Tribute.
After the fielding practice the con-
tending clubs marched far down the
center of the field and placed o
wreath at the stone erected there in
honor of Captain Eddie Grant, for
mer Harvard ball player and Giant
third baseman who fell in the battle
of the Argonne.
The wreath was presented by Gen.
eral Pershing and Judge Lands. A
woman walker had a walking match
with man around the bases before
play was called. The woman was de-
clared the winner.
Captain Bancroft of the Giants and
Manager Huggins Of the Yankees Of
the Yankees conferred with the UNI
pires at the plate on ground rules.
