Beckett plowed through Easterns center

chance to see the team that has been her

ship race, and many were in attendance to
see the contest, Coach Bocock Of Western
High School was there, noting Easterns
weak points, and the remainder of the week
will coach Western so as to have the boys
from the heights in the best possible form
to meet the Fasteners In their game next
Tuesday. Eastern has plenty of weight, but
the formations do not get off with the speed
they should, and when they meet Western
there will no doubt be a battle royal. West

LAJOIE-McGRAW
ON BIG GAMES

Napoleon Lajoies thinks the Athletics will
win the post-season games for the cham
pionship of the world. while John McGraw,
leader Of the Giants. picks his own team.
Below are the opinions of the two men:
By Larry Lajoie: ut looks like the Ath-
letics to me. Plank and Waddell can beat
the Giants. The Athletics are fast on the
bases The Giants. according to the aver
ages. can bat stronger. but as the clubs are
In different leagues little can be told by the
averages
BY John McGraw: Il have not the slight
est doubt about winning the worlds cham
pfonship. We can beat the Athletics at the
bat and running bases. The only Question
lett open to argument Is the pitching. They
might have 1t on us there, but I don't be-
lieve 1t, and am still confident of winning. -
