Talking It Over WITH JOE WILLIAMS
Bv United Press _ NEW YORK. April 23—The National Leaguers moved into the Metropolitan district today.Whole reads of them. The Giants, the Brookiyns, the Braves and the Phlles. Mr. J. J. McGraw arrived chattering hysterically about pennant. He things his club ought to be up there or thereabouts this year. Mr. McGraw has been thinking this for the last four years. Apparently there is nothing about thinking that breed, pessimism. a a a And Mi ( raw mi' hr rizht thin yrar. Hr a better hall rlub.

An uncertain serond baseman generally reduces the effii ;inc\ f th shortstop To a greater extent than anv other two men on a team, the second baseman and the shortstop function as a unit. One must dick if the other is to click. a a a M’GRAW feels he is justified m assuming his pitching.staff is ten games stronger than it was a year aeo On such reasoning it is very simple to figure the Giants will win the pennant by at least ix or seven games. All that remains to be done Is to convince the Cubt. tlir Pirates and the Cards tha’ this is so. This may be difficult.

Betzelites Start New Series With Kelley’s Millers as Opponents
Minneapolis Here Four Days Monday Struggle Puts Indians in Lost Column First Time Player Gossip. BV EDDIE ASH Times Sports Editor Sharing the league lead with the K. C. Blues as a result of losing Monday, the Indians were to take on another tough opponent today in the Millers, the club that chased the Betzelites all the way to the wire last season in the pennant fight that wasn't determined until the final day. The Kelley crew was holding the third peg in the standing this morning, having won four tilts and lost two. while Koosiers and Cowboys were tied for first place each with five victories and one setback.
The Millers are here for four davs and will be followed by Bubbles Hargrave's St. Paul Saints, after which the champions will hit the road to be gone until May 30. Ferd Schupp was slated to do the Tribe flinging this afternoon. The short Kansas City series finished in an even break, each nine winning one and one contest being postponed, and the rivals next will meet in Kawtown May 2 when the Blues lift the lid on their home season. George Murray blanked the locals Monday, 4 to 0, by outpitching Bill Burwell, the preponderance of baseball luck going to the former. The home lads met the ball right on the nose several times only to see the sphere go into the gloves of the enemy or be knocked down. Murray also entpiryed the "duster system” of keeping 'em close, and these tactics had a tendency to worry a few of the Indian hitters when runners were on the sacks waiting to be driven in. His biggest piece of luck came in the eighth when Russell, batting for Burwell. handcuffed Kuhel at first with the hardest hit ball of the day only to oe tossed out w hen the sphere bounded within reach of Spurgeon at second and he tossed to Murray, who covered the initial sack for the out. Warstler followed with a single, Matthews walked and Laync beat out a perfect bunt. It was a swell spot for a rally, but Barnhart

The Indians failed to solve Murray for a safety from the second round until the eighth. a a tt Luck hopped aboard the K. C. bandwagon in the first round when after one down Spurgeon got an infield hit when Connolly seemed slow in getting to a half-speed grounder. Kuhel smashed the ball down the right field foul line for an ordinary double, but which went for a triple when Barnhart missed the rebound off the bleacher fence. Spurgeon scored easily and Kuhel counted a moment later when Metz snared Seeds’ hot shot, but got off balance and Kuhel beat Metzie's toss to the plate. a tt tt K C. received its other two tallies in the eighth. Knothe tripled. Metz booted Spurgeon’s roller and Kuhel fanned. Tucker batted for Seeds and walked, loadin'- the sacks.
