(By Frank G. Menke.) New York. —While something like 175,000 fanatics alternately ate pea nuts and shouted their greetings, the major league clubs of organized base bal lifted the cover from the 1014 season and began the business of ca vorting on the various greens in regu lar fashion yesterday. It was a gala day for baseball and also for the fans Fandom showed how eager it was to get a glimpse of the big leaguers in their opening bat tles of the season by fighting among themselves hours before the game Blurted for choice seats from which to watch the doings of the athletes. A capacity crowd at each of the parks was indicated by the early sale of tickets, and in some cities it seem ed certain long before the game began that many of the late-coining fans would be turned away because of lack of room for their accommodation. Giants. In the National League the Giants were hilled to open at Philadelphia, the Boston Braves displayed their wares in Brooklyn, the Pirates were to meet in a head-on collision with tin- Cardinals in the Missouri city, and the Cubs tackled Charley Herzog's Ked in the Redleg town. The world champion Athletics open ed with the Yankees at the Polo Grounds, the Senators grappled with the -Red Sox in the Hub city, the Naps were billed to open with the White Sox in Chicago and the Browns and Tigers were scheduled to settle their first argument of the season in the Miflligan- city. There was considerable speculation as to the outcome of the Giant-Phil lie battle. The two were bitter ene mas last year, and seemed for a time ai out evenly matched. But this year the Phillies, raided by the Feds, have sent into action a line-up that seem ed somewhat strange to the fans, ami which on paper seemed weaker than last year’s combination. But Charley Pooln, the red-headed manager has come to the fore with the remark that "despite the loss of several of our best men we are as strong as we were last year, and we'll furnish a few sur prises.” Human Factors in Good Service THERE are three parties to each telephone connection—the party who calls, the trained operator, and the party who answers. The telephone user shares with the operator the responsi bility for good service. Accuracy in calling, promptness in answering, clear and de liberate talking and patience on the part of the user and the operator, are essentials of good service. In making 26,000,000 calls daily, millions of telephone users become integral parts in the Bell system and contribute to the success of the service. U y The Yankee line-tip for the opening game this year nnd the 1913 opener, was just about as different as day ami night. Only one man outside a catch er and three pitchers remains of the 1913 Yankee team, and Chance in sic. Ing his new-combination at the Ath letics, was confident that it would prove a stumbling block to the Phil adelphia boys, whose victories over tlic Yankees last year greatly aided them in their fight for the pennant. The Boston Braves looked upon as tlie dark horses in the National Lea gue battle, sized up today as one of the best aggregations that ever fought tinder the Braves' banners. The ad dition of the peppery Evers has added about DO per cent to the strength of the team, and with the pitching staff in good shape, it looked today as if the Braves would "blow” themselves to a nice little start and that they would furnish trouble all the way.v> Senators Look Good. The Senators looked mighty good wln-n they lined up for battle today. With Johnson still in his old form with two of Griffith's young twirlers giving promise of being aide to help out the Speed King, and with the out field and infield intact, the hoys from Washington look like formidable foes. The Naps didn't look overly husky when they prepared for their first clash of the season. Of course the slugging pair, Jackson and La joie, were among those present, and with batting orbs undinuned, but the loss of Falkenherg, the Naps’ pitching mainstay last season, and the fact that Chapman the shortstop who broke an ankle some weeks ago, won’t he able to get into the game for another month, seemed to take away about 20 per cent of the club's strength.
