Eastern League teams Syracuse has 9,
! Montreal 7, Toronto, Worcester, Roches-

England. There isn't any here. Ameri-

figure It out how any team can beat
BROOKLYN out now. Il has got a big lead
and IS playing great ball. Boston, OF
course has the best chance, but, with

team is 30 per cent weaker than IL was
