The desks of the hosteiries were packed three deep with visitors trying fo ob- tain sigeping accommodations, and these weéke being added .to as incoming train arrived. Never hefore has Cincinnati been called upon to andle such an enormous crowd and. it safe to sav that never before has | she been the host to as many men | prominently nationally in their vari- !ous walks of life. Ome of the first special trains to ar- jrive came from XNew York and | brought seventy-five of the newspa- per correspondents. Among the actor folk to be on the scene early are George M. Cohan and Roscoe Arbuckie and Charles Ray, of moving picture fame. Another special train brought 130 Pittsburgh business men Among the baseball men who were cariy arrivals was Colonel Til Hus- ton. of the New York Americans; President Wil Veeck. of the Chi- ago Nr?fl!. d Les Constans. of Pittsburgh, busiNess manager of the werid series for the National League. The railroads announced that a spe- cial containing 100 oil men from Texas wouid arrive here earty 1OmMOorrow morning.

Manager Gleason has given his team a complete rest since they clinched the pennant several days ago. In the final three games of the sea- son, each of which resulted in a de- feat for the Chicagoans, the lineup was made up mostly of substitutes and the regulars played such indiffer- ent ball that they were booed and hissed . by many fans at vesterday's zame. A stif practice had been planned for today but the heavy rain of last night put Comiskey Park in such shape that it was thought best to call off the practice and let the ground crew work on the park gerting it ready for the first game here Friday. Gleason and his players held a con- ference this atternoon, however. mak- ing final plans for their invasion of Nationa] l.eague territory. Tomorrow the team expects to take a stiff workout in Cincinnati. either at the Reds’ park or, if the Reds use it me amateur field. ile no detnite anngounce“ms;r;t has heen made, the White Sox players sure that Gleason will pick Eddie Ci- cotte to hurl the opening game, with Claude Williams as the likely nominee for the second contest. Gleason said | Cicotte and Williams would work the first two games but Wo;lld not ::i vhether the right ‘hander or Za - first choice. E aw would be his D aid to be in excellent shape, Cicotte having recovered from the soreness which troubled his arm the latter part of the season. Louis Comiskey. son of the owner of the White did not accompany the team tonight. He is reported serious- Iy ill, threatened with appendicitis and probably will not witness any of the zames. Arrangements have been made for hundreds of the fans to leave tomor- row for Cincinnati, only a few news- paper men accompanying the team tonight. FINAL STANDING OF NATIONAL LEAGUE New TYork.

The Lebanon boys brought down a strong team with the two Scribner boys from the Windham club. They played ball right from the start of the game. The Rival club did not play their usual brand of ball as errors in the fourth inning gave Leb- anon five runs. J. Scribner on secomd for Lebanon was the star of the game with three hits, base on balls and a great stop over second base to his credit. The Rovals by good hitting in the fourth and sixth innings scored three runs in each inning. but errors and loose work in the fleld did neot give them a chance to win. The Ri- vals have no kick coming as the best team won. The manager hopes next season the Rivals will play a few more visits to Lebanon as the ciub have always been treated well and good friendly feeling between both clubs, Hats off to Man- ager N.

The first tabulated | score ever kept of the game, histories| record, was that printed by the New York Clipper, July 16, 1853..The con- | test was played on July 5. of that year.| between the Knickerbocker and the| Gotham teams. In the early days runs were call- ed “aces” and a team had to make 21 to have enough to win. Rule one of the early set of rules, copies of which have been preserved, says that all players “must be punctual and ob- serve the time for the commencement of the' zame” This precaution was necessary because in those days ne bases on balls were possible and it was not uncommon for the pitcher to throw for half an hour before the batter de- cided to strike. Very few changes in the basic prin- ciples of the game as set forth in the original twenty rules. made in 1845 have been made. In rule two of the original set it is provided that “before the commencement of the game the president shall appoint an umpire who shail keep the game in a book and note all the violations of the ruies” and rule seventeen states that there shall be no appeal from the umpire's decisien in case of a dispute. In 1348 a rule making it necessary for a play- er to be ‘touched out” was. added to the code and at this time siid- and Got:m chibe other orgamizations =prung to being and a pioneer con- vention of baseball clubs, was held in May, 1857. The next year twenty- five clubs sent delegates to New York and “The National , Association of Baseball Players” was formed.
