T least insofar as the four Western clubs are concerned | the Toledo Mud Hens rate “tops” in the American Association . . .

Toledo's record against the Western four shows 54 victories and 34 defeats. . . . The home and road record is just the same, 27 wins as against 17 defeats. Columbus, on the other hand, won 29 at home and fin, dropped only 15, but only split even in the 44 contests in Boon Es Sriganaly hostile territory ... The only other club in the league to show better than .500 ball in the intersectional series is | Minneapolis . . .
