dark hollows Of the Polo Grounds

world series while Old Man Gloom
sat in the clubhouse of the Yankees
who were reeling under two blows
on the button from the aggressive

home folk today and gave funeral
welcome to the Giants Who planned
to make it four straight over their
hapless foemen and capture the
crown of baseball. i.

A slantless mist closed in during
the day, dampened the playing field,
making prospects Of contest du-
bious and uncertain. The weather
man took slant to the East and
figured that the ocean breeze would
bring showers before night fall. The
wind came in puffs from the East
bringing with it an intermittent
drizzle. 5.a

the base paths pitchers and batters
box blanketed under heavy canvasses.
The outer gardens were in need of
rain and the drizzle served only to
allay the dusty top soil.
The crowd came early and the
wet weather did not seem to rust
the edge Of it's enthusiasm. Specta-
tors placed newspapers upon the
wet chairs and watched the threat
ening clouds.
