Talking It Over WITH JOE WILLIAMS
NEW YORK Aug. 7.—Punching the bag with the Cardinals who are currently among us, your boy friend, Scoop, the demon news hound, gathers that the Missourians are reasonably confident of winning the pennant this year and that the belated uprising by the Giants is causing them no great alarm. Even if the Cardinals did not feel that way about it they naturally
say they did. Nevertheless, there is among the players that quiet easy feeling of confidence one usually finds in fighters and ball iubs that know they are capable enough to manipulate a winning effort. > Bill McKechnie, the Cardi- ] nal manager, is satisfied the J team will repeat
|
Joe Williams
two years ago for the simple reason that it is the best ball club in the league, and that the best ball clubs generally wind up on top in competitions of this sort. McKechnie tells you this is both elemental and fundamental. In fact, neither McKechnie nor his players seem disposed to lavish much controversial concern on the outcome of the race in their league. Their attitude is that this is in the bag, as the snappy phrase has it. tt tt ' Grover Cleveland Alexander, the pitcher, would like to see those Yankees in there again and he rather believes they will be, notwithstanding the giddy gait at which the Athletics have been traveling for the past three weeks. Alex, privately and off the record, doesn’t think much of those Yankees.' “We beat ’em two years ago,” drawls the veteran, who was spinning that third one across long before Paul Revere could ride a pony, "and we will beat ’em again if they get into the series. We are one ball club they don’t (like.” There is something about the attitude of Alexander when he talks about those Yankees that causes one to suspect he doubts the fighting spirit of some of the young men employed by Col. Jacob Ruppert. tt -a a While It might be better to I wait until the two clubs get into the series, if they are to get into it, before grappling with the mat- j ter of relative abilities, Alexan- | der’s implied indictment of the i Yankees’ courage as reflected in the club's defeat two years ago | can not be allowed to stand as is. a tt tt IT is of course a well-remembered fact the Yankees just did stagger across the line in front two years ago, and were pretty well done for when the big games started. Certainly the Yankees were a better, club going into the world series last fall when they coasted home an easy winner by nineteen games than they were the previous year when the race was not decided until the last two weeks. Their opponents, the Pirates, had just the reverse experience. Fighting desperately all the way they managed to hold on long enough to win one of those eye-lash decisions. They were reeling and groggy when the series opened, and wefc beaten four straight. On the strength of this the' Yankees looked like the greatest club that ever posed for a group picture. One of the reasons the Yankees may have struck Alexander and some of the other Cardinals as a team in the old up-and-at-’em stuff is that they had been worn down to a thin edge before the 1926 series started. a tt a The Yankees have yet to win this year’s pennant. The fight has become a little sterner than anybody figured it would be a month ago. Ultimately, though, they ought to win out. It may be by a wide margin or a scant one. If it’s a wide margin they will be harder to beat in the series—for the Cardinals or a;iy other team—than if the margin is a narrow one.— —' — ■■ Olympic Track, Field Champs, 1928 TRACK 122 Meters—Percy Williams, Canada. 522 Meters—Percy Williams, Canada ’22 SSSSSS?~?? y Barbuti.

Three Defeats in Row at Hands of Mauling Miller Aggregation. WILD TILT MONDAY Visitors Score Six Runs in Ninth Inning. BY EDDIE ASH From the standpoint of the Indians, Monday's fracas with the j Mauling Millers was nothing to supply clippings for the old scrap book. Leading 10 to 3 in the fourth inning, the Tribesmen cracked and when nine rounds had been completed Minneapolis was on top 12 to 10. It was a pain to see the home boys drop that one. The defeat moved the Millers one more game nearer the league leaders and the A. A. standing this morning showed the Betzentes only two games ahead. And the boys leave on a long trip in enemy territory after Wednesday. Six Runs in Ninth The Monday fans saw some tall slugging, the Millers getting eighteen hits and the Indians sixteen. The visitors staged one of those unbelievable rallies in the ninth that grew and grew and ended only after eight hits and six runs had been registered. Swetonic was knocked out. Speece was knocked out, Yde was knocked out and it took Burwell to stop the Miller parade, but Bill was called on too late. The contest had gone to the bowwows. Swetonic was left in the box too long, but apparently it was his fault for Manager Betzel indicated he desired to remove him when the Millers first launched their winning rally. Picked Out Good Ones The visiting swatters picked out balls to hit in a manner that caused mafiy onlookers to believe Cljarlie Hall, Miller coach, was “calling the turn” on Swetonic's delivery. Three singles and a double were stung off Swetonic in the final inning before Speece relieved. He retired one man and then allowed two singles. Yde relieved and was batted for a single and double and he hit Yoter. That was all for Yde and Burwell took up the Tribe mound toil and forced Hays to hit into a double play. It was a sweet one for the Millers to win, but a terrible one for the Indians to lose. Comorfesky had trouble judging drives in right field and from the press coop he appeared responsible for Smith’s double in the eighth and Brillheart’s double in the- hinth. Top Fly Falls Safe And in the first inning Comorosky, Miller and Matthews became confused on Hirris’ pop fly and it fell safe for two bases. . Seven pitchers saw service in the hectic conflictrthree Miller twirlers working and four Tribe ball propellers performing. There is no question that overconfidence had much to do with the Indians’ downfall. They seemed to think their work was done after a big lead had been piled up. The boys evidently forgot Minneapolis is leading the league in hitting. Two more battles with the swatting Millers. Leverett was due to pitch for the Indians today. Big league scouts here to watch Swetonic and Llska had nothing to report to their home offices Monday night. Both young twirlers got knocked out, Llska being the first to go. Herman Layne was a busy lad with lour singles and a walk In five trips to the plate. Wid Matthews demonstrated you never can tell in baseball. He drove out a home run over the low fence In right field near the scoreboard. He was first to face Liska. Warstler’s triple in the third was , a swat over Harris’ head in center, j Spencer banged out three singles. There were some dandy fielding plays made despite the (act twenty-two runs scored. Matthews and Warstler contributed feature catches and stops. Matty made a circus catch on Orsatti in the first inning. Matty was caught napping off first in the seventh. Collegian Hays poled two doubles and a single off Swetonic. It was a tough day for the box score keepers. They got dizzy recording the "Hits off—.” Millers and Indians have met seventeen times this season and the Flour City crew has taken nine of the struggles. If the Indians had won three from the Millers instead of taking it on the chin each time, the Betzelites would have been out in front by eight games today. Five Bouts at Ripple —■ A bargain bill of five bouts will be offered at the Broad Ripple Park bathing beach arena Thursday evening at 8:45. The card, which will be staged by Arol Atherton, is as follows: Four Rounds—Billy Benz vs. Everett* Kum. 120 pounds. Four Rounds—Charles Bergie va. Earl Monroe, 139 pounds.

HIGHLAND members are engaged this week in qualifying play to determine the personnel of the six and eighteen men teams to battle the Jndianapolis Country Club at the I. C. C. links next Saturday. The Highland teams heretofore have been selected by the club handicap allottment of each player. Ray Reed, chairman of the sports and pastimes committee, decided that the qualifying system was beat.

Bill Diddel. who belongs to so many clubs he hardly can keep track of the functions, casts his lot with Highland in this particular affair, although he belongs to the I. C. C. as well. In that manner he gets into competition with his old links enemy, Eddie Zimmer. No matter how well Bill might be playing throughout the season, Eddie always manages to loom up as a thorn in the path and Eddie carries a shade of the verdicts.
