WEST HOLDS WHIP
HAND IN BASEBALL
Four Inland Teams Lead
American League:Two
Top National.

NEW YORK, Aug 15.-Supremacy in
baseball unquestonably is with the
West IN distinction from the East this
year.
With four Western teams occupying
the four ii, ST division berths in the

teams hOlG hg first and second places

retain a fOothOld for the East among
the so-called winning clubs
* was not so long ago that the East
was supreme on the diamond In the
decade preceding the birth of the Amer
lean League and the subsequent base
bali war, the lions share of the honors
was monop0lized by the Eastern clubs
of the major league, and it seemed i'm
possible to break into their strong in
trenchments. TIT baseball war did
this by breaking up the powerful COM
binatiOns got together in Eastern cities
and scattering the brainy players over
the country
For three wears in the present CEN
fury PittsburL carried of the honors
for the West in the old league. while
Chicago and Boston were dividing them
I'm the American League. Then the PEN
nants switched 10 New York and Phila-
deIphia in the East. Following that
came the segregation Of all the highest
honors in Chicago alone In 1906. and
since then both pennants have re-
manned in the West. along with the
worlds championship
But there has been no such spectacle
recently as that presented this year,
when the western clubs hold practically
all the desirable positions in both
leagues. The result of this gradual
change during the last eight years has
been a great revival of interest in the
national pastime in the West without
any serious loss Of prestige in the
East. where the enthusiasm of former
years is OF imDelling force.
This widespread interest has spelled
prosperity even in a year when business
in general has been stagnant. The CON
tinuation OF this prosperity naturally
will necessitate concentrating more
playing strength IN the East before the
West gets palled at winning and the
East becomes weary Of losing. In the
enterprise and hustle OF managers lies
this remedy There is no likelihood Of
another big league war 90 distribute
the playing talent again.
