But there is little doubt that they

is going on off the field. l under
stand that there are $50 newspaper
men covering the series. There are
more telegraph wire. n'the press box
than are used to cover a national po-
litical convention. This illustrates the
great growth and national importance
OF the game.
In 1906, when the Cubs and the
White SoX played, 1 remained in New

vas not then considered such a big
national event. Very few of the New
York base ball writer's, If any. Went
out to cover the series. l remember
one of the baseball writer's coming 10

asked me to give him my idea of II.
He printed a small box, as the news
paper men call it, and that was all
The point / make is that the worlds
series was then considered merely of
local importance to the cities involved.
Today find that there are twice as
many base ball reporters here from
Pittsburgh. Chicago also is strongly
represented. In fact, every major
league city is represented just as
strongly as the actual participants,
the number of representatives depend
ing upon the number of newspapers
in A city. The minor league cities
and Canada and Cuba also are repre-
sented. Having turned base ball
writer myself for the series this in
terests me a whole lot. 1t makes me
feel that years devoted to such a na-
tional sport have been we'll worth
while. The public doesn't set excited
and thrilled this way over anything
unless it is close to the heart \
game that puts the people of all
classes on an even footing like this
is surely national good.
Another thought that fitted across
my mind as l watched the players
moving about was the games financial
importance to Young men as a pro-
fession. The individual winning play
ers in this SerieS-most of them in
their twenties-will get at least 1000
as a prize for their weeks work
When I was playing on the old Orioles

this is a National League city, having
