There was n marked contrast in the July
record Of the New York American League
and National League baseball teams. For
the first time this season the monthly record
OF McGraw's men showed percentage OF
less than 500 and for the first time the monthly
record of the Griffith ensemble was above
800 in percentage. In short. July witnessed

The New York Americans have been play

done quite crnditably considering the FIST
