CONNIE MACK, the lean patriarch chief of the Philadelphia Athletics, originally picked Cleveland to tch the American League pennant this vear. ... He icked the Vittmen in early April and named the Yankees nish third. But now the tall leader who grew up with the jumor has switched horses and he thinks the De- : J 0) may upset the dope and land in front “beheir spirit.” Mr. Mack told Al Horwitz of the Philadelphia vht to be a great ball club and probably would be if rs worked together, but under the existing conditions I supisn't that harmony that you usually find in a winner. veland, I thought, had a swell club with that extra someBobby Feller, but I'm beginning to wonder whether they off the Tigers admire ‘and respect a team that refuses to quit s never have given up and are in there fighting every secknow a fighting club is very hard to lick. For that reason Detroit stands a good chance to lick Cleveland veteran seer can miss his shots, however, and Connie explain why his own club licked the Tigers 10 times and only beat Cleveland six times in 17 clashes
