Quartet of Clubs So Even That All Have Fine Chance

1 i Expert? Doubt if the New York Yanks Will Come Through with Flag. RV HILLY HVAXS. The New Fork American League club was the unanimous choice of the experts to repeat. Will it come through ? The team has a great pitching staff, a strong offense and a good defense. That trio of assets should be enough to win. The New York club has Just passed through a very critical perio-i of depression. On its firt tour of the west, the Yankees startfd in fine style by winning three straight from Chicago. Then came the big slump. After losin.r the final game to the White Sox. an even split was the best the Yankees could do in St. Louis. Then came a real lolt at the (hands of th5 Detroit Tigers, the (losing of fojr straight. An even; s.lit followed in the four games at Cleveland. i Thurf the best the Yankees did on the first invasion of the west was to win seven and lose nine games, a rather poor showing. Then camo a five-game series with the Boston Red Sox. It was believed this series would start the Yankees on the right road, as the fiostonlans had been going poorly. Again the Yankees failed, by losing four out of five. The series that followed wdth the Athletics has helped right the club, and poseibly has rot Ruth into his stride. The Yankees are certainly due to brace and hit their stride. It Is much too strong an aggregation to be usd as a doormat by clubs much inferior. Fos-sihly there is an ins'de reason for the .slump of the Yankees that has not been made public. Possibly

RY DAVIS J. WAIH. NEW YORK. July .tl. (By I. N. S.) A neatly engraved bank note of suitable denomination will fly from the pennant pole at the Polo grounds. In the event that the 12world's series is a strictly private New York institution, which now j seems likely, it will serve as an appropriate emblem for both New York I clubs. , . . Trohab!.- that the officials , of eitner tyj0 f.iants or Yankees will accept the emblem as their own. even tacitly, but it will be like the uninvited wedding guest. It will be there, anyhow. Pitcliing Weakness. This much was determined as the result of the latest New York Goldhrick, otherwise known as a deal whereby the Boston Braves gave up right and title to Hush McQuillan, a fine young right hander. for the passe Fred Toney, Iarry Benton and Walter Houlihan, a pair of unknowns and a very promising sum of money. t The deal comes on the final day of the trading season, and for this reason' its bad taste is all the more flagrant. It was one of those dfals of expedience. The Giants were ln a very bad way for pitchers, particularly with doubleheaders dead ahead. It was this weakness in pitching on which other clubs hang their hopes. Rank Note Play. Therefore the ease with whloh John McGraw waa able to swing this deal at tho proper moment just as the Yankees reached tip the sleeve, so to speak and came out with Joe Dupan and Llmer Smith when thy needed a hard hitting third baseman, smacks of rather ' raw commercialism. That Is how the other major Ir-a?uo cities will view the matter and not without reason. As far as New Yorkers are concerned the National r.nd American league pennants may finat above thPolo grounds on alternate days during the fall series but other cities will see only the fresh, crisp bank note of suitable denomination. Likewise will the uniforms of the players pport the official insiqnias of the Giants and Yankees but only a New York fan will b able to decipher the lettering. The rest of the country will see a dollar mark on the manly bosom of each noble athlete. Ruy Pennants I3arlicr.
