While loss of the Western Conference .baseball title was a sever disappointment to the Fniverslty of Michigan team, thoi student body already is looking forward to another fight for first p'.ace honors in 1922. Tho work of Ray Fisher, who succeeded Derrill Pratt as basehall coach, i warmly commented upon. It is pointed out among the campus baseball enthusiasts that Fisher took charge of the team late in tho season and was handicapped by the loss of Vernon Parks, star pitcher, rendered ineligible following charges of having played professional baseball. Dospite this handicap, Fisher carried the team to within half a game of the conference championship. Ijoso Only Four Regulars. Rut four of the regulars will be lost to tho Wolverines by graduation.

- BASEBALL SCIONS EXPLAIN HITTING Terrific Slugging in Majors This Season Blamed to Many Causes. CHICAGO, July 6. Hero are the reasons advanced by some of baseball's leaders in explaining the Increased long distance hitting: THIS SPEAKER, manager of the world champion Cleveland Indians "Ineffective pitching is the cause. They've barred the emery ball, the spitter and all the old deliveries. The pitchers haven't anything left but a glove and a prayer and they work tho prayer overtime." TY conn, manager of the Detroit Americans "Baseball moves in cycle??. "We had the cycle of the Kreat base running, the cycle of great pitching and now we have the cycle of heavy hittlnc. It won't last long." JOHNNY EVE RS, manager of the Chicago Cubs "It's the lively ball. The ball Is so fast the players can't handle it and the force that used to be used in bunting now puts the ball out of tho in-Held. The fast ball is crippling inlielders and spoiling the game." Says That Ruth Is Cause. JOHN HFYDLER, president of tho National league "Dabo Ruth caused it. libe made every one think it was easy to hit homers and now the battern swing their hardest. Everyone takes a full swing at the ball. Result; more long hits than ever." KID GLFASON, manager oC the Chicago White Sox "It's partly the fact that tho weather has been so bad in the central west that the western clubs' pitchers ere not In condition. Most of the heavy hittin cr has been In the east by eastern clubs against western clubs' pitch ers." FRANK NOVIN. president Detroit American league club "It's not the lively ball, for there is no such thing. The balls are all the sme. The hitting is caused by rules prohibiting a pitcher from doctoring the ball a little. He'd rub dirt on it fo roughen It up a little, spit on it and do lots of other things to emhlo him to get a better crrip. These thincrs are barred now. and the pitchers are Ineffective es .i result."

EXPECT PIRATES TO MEET INDIANS IN WORLD SERIES

Both New York Clubs Look Like Runners-Up "With Season Half Over. lj IIirllY L. FAUUCIA Unheil I'rx'ss Staff Corres ixndcnt. Ni:W YORK. July 6. Figuring the "Fourth" as tho half way mark, it begins to look like both the major league r.ennants are "in." Tho Pittsburg Tiratea and the Cleveland Indians, cloee to the middle of the season, seem to bo almost sure winners in the two races. Both clubs are going along playing eteady, easy ball, taking the breaks well and getting the best out of their talent. George Gibon has been getting good pitching all season and hts club is playing a great defensive game as well as packing a good punch in the plnche.j. Indians I Live Ihineh. The world's champion Indians havo been leading the league just because they pos.ecs the stuff of which champions are made. Tri Speaker has had a lot cf bad luck all reason. Ill pitchersi Coveleskie, Bagby and Malls, who ought to win a pennant alone, have been awfully slow in getting away and ha had a tough break to overcome in the accidents that deprived him of Bill Wamtuganss and Steve O'Neill. The two N'ew York clubs look .like the runneri. up. The Glante, afflicted by their ancient malady, lnfleld trouble, aro just moving along in second place. John McGraw's great pitching staff turned into an "in and outer" and the club generally has been a disappointment. "Itazzcs'' tho Yanks. The Yankees, possessing tho greatest wealth of material in the major leagues, cannot make a million dollars' worth of stars do ordinary work. Miller Hugglns hrif? a preat ball team except for his outfield, his catching department and three or four pitchers. He has the great Rabe Ruth and a lot of prima donnas. Rabo wdns a game now and then with a homer, but he loes just as many wdth his terrible work in the field. Wally Schang, who ordinarily ought to bo a first class catcher has been no better than the relegated Truck Hannah. The Boston Braves are proving the surprise of the National circuit and the Cardinals, after getting away to a bad start, aro rounding into some f the form, that was predicted for them before tho start of the season. Washington goes right along In the American league winning gamca and the Tigers are being kept in the first division by Ty Cobb, who is helping Tris Speaker to show that a player can do things besides play. The Browns, with all their hitting talent. can't get along without pitchers.

NAVY OFFICERS DO NOT CONCEDE AIR FORCE SUPREMACY Irrespective of Te?t.s Fleet Men Refuse to Acknowledge Air Strength. WITH T1IF ATLANTIC FLEET. July 6. No matter wliat th outCome of aerial bombing operations against naval vessel now under way, three tests will never convince the officers of tho Atlantic fleet that the battleship and lighting vessel is to be displaced by air forces. Although many of the officers admit that they have been forced to recognize that the aerial lighters havo acquired an admirable amount of skill, still they refuse to agrees that air forcf . are yet a serious menace to lighting sea ships. Th first argument that every naval officer gives to the claim of the aerial proponents Is that naval warfare has been the result of years of Progress ,itid In all cf thc.c years tnere nas nen nut one weapon ; which has been discarded and that is the ram. It L pointed out that for every advance in methods of attacks upon naval craft thoro has been developed a new defense. Warfare is hut a cycle of development, the Atlantic Fleet officers point out. When the cycle if completer! warfare becomes only a test of strength, and they believe that in the final analywif, no matter howgreat the development of tho aeroplane, it will bo but a test of strength. Oettlng down to specific argument against the aeroplane and its bombing attacks, the i-fficera of tho fleet pcint out that tlijs far it has not Veen prcven that thero any successful armor-picrcin?; aerial bomb. Until thia comes tho "battle-wagon" Is safe, they say, for when a battleship goes into action her vulnerable parts are under protection of a heavy coat of armor. Even though her superstructure and her deck work and her deck defenses may bcompletely blown away she will remain a fighting craft, unlesi her armor is penetrated and the vitals of the vessel destroyed. OpixMients of Fleet Art Monaco. During tho war the men of the navy had no fears of aircraft, they say. They declare that the Pritifh Grand Fleet, which kept the German naval forces -bottled up, lay at anchor during the greater pnrt of the I war within easy striking distances of German aerial base 5. yet thero b no record of any successful or extensive air attack upon the- Grand F'eet. Have the developments in aerial warfare come so quleK and last curing the last three years that thö J aerial proponents are able to subtleship is nw obsolete? the oillcers of the t'.eet inquire. Turning directly to the bombing tejfts whi''h are now in progress, the fleet officers state that it will ho Impossible to judge conclusively what the .strength of the air r.iiden is, for there has been no defense. There have been no attacking atr parties and there has been r.o anti-aircraft defense. It is impr s.sible, they say, to esrimate the ability of tho drfnscs of the fleet until it has been actuaily de mo nostra ted. The offxurs of th, Navy aro will ing to agree that aircraft is of great value to them. They use naval aircraft In their target practise continually. They feel that there .hou'd be penerous appropriations for aircraft as a major defend, but they refuse to consider seriously any proposals that naval developments b withheld while tho nation spends its money for aircraft development. The men of the fet fe-:d that thoso who would Injure th3 defenses of the natio n are a menace, ar.d they are inclined privately to ronsider in this class those who ur? tho abolition of the battle-ship In favor of the aeroplane.
