seema 10 be due whom shot should \
be taken at an ail-American Helnc- II
tion Of talent from the two BID
shows.
Al odd turns we have observed the 4
sixteen clubs In actlon since last April L
and a. climax watched the TWO /
champions 9rapple and fight u out
In the final cuel. This may not he
sufficient 10 norm the basis for amy /
expert opinion. but "a furnishes the
foundation for general selection ~
the worst Of a. 4
AIi-Auesican g<aGuc Tcan.
First In order comes pick from
the American league which has cur
nered the huik % 1911 glory. Here's
the star llna-up from ban J0hnson'r
corral.
Catcher sinnarc. Detroit.
Pitchers - BENDER. Philadelphia;
Crcos. cieseIA johnson. wash-
lneton: Walsh, Chicago.
First hase--Chkse. New York.
seoQnd hare---Colllns, Philadelphia. |
shoffstop-- Barry. Philadelphia.
Third base Baker, Philadelphia.
Left field-crnwford. Detroit.
Center fseld--cobb. Detroit
Right fIeld--Jackaon, Cleveland.
There In no great amount of argu-
ment left over this selection. stan
age In che American league stood
alone Bender. Grees. johnson ana
Walsh rank with the stars OF pltch-
Ing history. coomha was leaa cf-
fectsve than In 1919 while Russ Ford
suffered an even fouaher slump. Joe
Wood OF Boston would be the next
choice but the four picked hold the
edge.
Tho Athletic infleld with Hal
Chase NJ first base would FORM re-
markable collection Of talent. and az
that Chase has no great edge above
Mcinnia Barry In the only one IN
the lot who failed 20 hit above ace.
but ball players who have faced
Mack's team rank him upon a par
with CoIiina along the ilns Of value.
Cobb and Joe jackson have two
Quilted Jobs nailed down. Ty had
his greatest year ana this statement
IA sufficient. Jackson again pressed
the Georgia. closely. finishing above
800. The only chance for an arsu-
mcnt IN In left. where Birdie Cree OF
the New York Yanks In Crawford's
peer across many opinions Cree HE
$50. stole about 50 bases ana played
great ball all the gear. Hut crsw-
ford Il q more dangerous hitter. fair
/ IS fsst and about AS reliable.
AIl-Nationai Pick.
Picking an ALI National league ar
ray calls for g deeper dive into the
dope nnd outlying statistics. There
are not as many stars on hand hut a
nrenter number of nearly equal rafik.
This looks 20 be tho top Of the pick;
CatcheF--ArchoE. Chicago.
Pitchers -Mathevson. New York;
Alexander. Philadelphia. Rncker,
BROOKLYN; Marauard. New York;
Adams. Pittsburg
First base -Daubcrt, Brooklyn.
Second base Doyle. New York.
shortstop--w Wagner. pitisburE.
| Third baae--LoheFt. philadelphia.
Left wheat. BROOKLYN.
| Center sleld---paskert. Philadei-
phia.
Right neia--echui,x. Chicago.
American StrnnEcr.
between these two sil-slar teams
there Isn't any question hut that the
| American league ilne-up carries the
cali. II Is faster. can hit the bail
harder and has possible shade In
pitching power. The AmerIean league
ouiaeid II endless miles beyond the
beat that any one could pick from
the older organisation. In tss-
game series there a no question bui
that the American league would put
over the National league hy a mar
gin as thick ~ Mr.. Taft's diameter.
Tho AIl-stsr Team.
The selection Of an aii-star rasl
from these two line ups brings on
lroueher argument It's all mattei

lop but the best looking 0utfit we've
