Vengeful manner. NThe Giants made the
Westerners, who, by the way play good
ball. look very poor in comparison, but
we think that no National League PEN
nant will float in New York this year
With the team John McGraw has. The
Giants will give all the clubs, even the
remnant winners, great scare and
will probably be in the race all the
time, but we can't see any superior
all-around ability in the 1910 Giants.
1t has often been said. and you'll find
it so by looking back in the history of
the game that no club has ever accom-
piished much without a great catcher.
New York has none. Meyers is an
in-and-outer at his best.
The knights of Columbus under the
jurisdiction of local chapters and those
who are affiliated with the similar body
in Jersey City have arranged a series
OF three baseball games to be played in
this city and in Jersey City this sum-
Iner.
The first game will be played at
Wiedenmayers Sunday, July II. The
second will be contested probably at
West Side Park. If a third is neees-
sary. it will be held on neutral ground
or decided by a toss-up The proceeds,
hich should be large will go to the
hosrital bed fund Of both organizations.

There's no use of talking, Joe Nc
Cinnity is certainly great pitcher,
After years of work, after most of his
former fellow players are out of the
game for good he is keeping his club
in the Eastern League race by pitch
ing three or four times a week. He
seldom gets a trimming and is really
the best pitcher in the Eastern League,
which is only a step from the big
leagues and / dent think the differ
ence is in the pitchers, either.

After next week the program, If 1t
can be lived up to, that the Municipal
A. C. has in mind Is for Willie Jones
to meet Tommy OToole and then to
have Patsy Kline meet the Philadel-
phian after that.
Pitchers Egan, Holmes and kieber
have been left home by Manager Nc
C;innity. who took his other men to
Baltimore today for series. Rumor
has 1t that Holmes and Kieber have
been suspended until they get into
condition, but the Iron Man says that
isn't So

Billy Lewis the local scrapper, was
in town last night from his training
quarters at Swinefeld. He went back
today. The boxer looked fit, and said
he weighed 1874 pounds. Lewis meets
Nat Ehrlich at the Municipal A. G. in
a six-round bout next Monday night.
Lewis is running ten miles day,
rowing and indulging in other muscle
getting stunts, until he is now in prime
shape.
