Snappy Workouts An Indian summer sun turned the edge of what early threatened to be a brisk cool Autumn day and noon found it warm and comfortable. The players in practice warmed into con dition quickly and the fielding work outs were snappy and fast. The Inner and outer playing fields were rolled smooth while the base paths were in fine shape. A brass band piped its liveliest airs down near the home folks players' bench. "We hope to uncover some real baseball to-day," said Manager Car rlgan, of the Boston Americans. "We have the players, the incentive, the big prize in baseball, and plenty of opposlton from the other fellows." The Brooklyns came on the field while the Bostons were at batting practice. They were given a big hand by the crowd as Manager Robison led hta men to the visitors' bench. Jack Coombs and Ivan Olson, old American i.eaguers, came in for quite a reception from friends on the Boston club. The Brooklyns wore their gray traveling uniforms with caps to match and black and gray stockings. The Red Sox wore white uniforms, white caps with red and white stockings. While the batting practice of the Bostons was on. Manager Carrlgan and Captain Jack Barry, ofttimes called the Red Sox strategy board, conferred down at second base. Manager Carrlgan while the Brook lyns woro having their batting prac tice, took his team tothe clubhouse where he had a talk with them and gave his final instructions for the game. Shore and Ruth warm-id up for Bos ton, while Pfeffer, Coombs and Mar quard worked for Brooklyn. Small Night I4ne The mass of people who swarmed through the broad reaches of Braves Field chosen as the stage for the local games because of its tremendous seating capacity, grew rapidly from small groups who had spont the night at the bloeacher gates. The night lino was smaller than had preceded any world series game played In this city in recent years. At daybreak knots of fifty persons each were gath ered on the threshold of the park, awaiting the opening of the gates at 9 o'clock. Some slept, others walked about, while more eagerly read fore casts of the game in morning news papers. Bonfires wore lighted to burn oft the morning mists which came off the Charles river.
