The Athletics and Indians wil l.ook up in a serjes today ami the champion Senators will try to get a clear title lo first place by taking a series away from the Chicago While Sox. The White Sox are one of the most interesting teams of the season and they have been acting so well lor Ed die Collins that they look like one of the rea.‘ entries.

Fighting among themselves, the western clubs- • have had a harder job than two ol the eastern team* - , because no team in

the west has been playing poorer baseball than Yankees anil the Itos ton Heil Sox. After having feasted on the Braves and the Phils, the' New York Giants will meet the western invasion with a fair hold on first place. The National league champions will open against the St. Louis Cards, a strong hatting chib that may find the Giant pitching staff a little easier than the we torr, dubs. The Cincinnati Reds, running : < lose second to the Giants, will open :. series in Brooklyn. The Robins have been having trouble with some back- 1 ward pitching and although they an 1 holding fourth place they haven't 1 found the pace that was expected of ' them. 1 The Pittsburgh Pirates, which have been the biggest disappointment of ' the season meet the Philips. a team that doesn't look like much on paper but which has been going well on a stout heart.
