POLO GROUNDS, N15W YORK, Oct.
7.-Some 40,000 persons filled the broad
reaches of the big Brush stadium this
afternoon to witness the New York
Giants, pennant winners of the National
league, do battle with the Philadelphia
Athletics, leader of tho American league,
In the first game of the world's base
ball series.
A record-breaking attendance was In
dicated, for the turnstiles were still mer
rily clicking at noon, and elevated trains,
traction cars, automobiles and all man
ner of conveyances were bringing their
hundreds to the playing field. Over back
of the Athletics' diurout went RAvrii
hundred Philadelphia enthusiasts.
Murky clouds from which there came
an occasional drizzle, screened the sun
and there was a constant threat of heavy
weather.
The Giants and Athletics came early
to the club houses, which lie behind the
back field bleachers. Bender was first
In uniform. The Indian's delight is a
big crowd. There was a rousing cheer
as the Athletics' pitching star popped
his head out of tbe little doorway under
thei center field stand. Bender rrinneri
at the crowd, then disappeared.
Shortly after the contending clubs
trotted on the field and then came the
batting practice. What a shout there
was when long hit after long hit was
driven by the Giant batters tn th far
corners of the field. Of course hits were
made off straight balls pitched, but It
seemed to presage heavy hitting by the
home club, und the crowd was happy

Many women werejn evidence, some with
their husbands; others unaccompanied.

to warrant an Investigation has come
to hand.
