figures count il Oomph's output in the
seven-game set just happens to be linn

runs over the fence with the sacks full

CARELESS of which team may be picked
to win the majority of these games.
These contests will be between two
mighty well balanced ball teams, and.
while it may be possible to make one or
the other look stronger by going into
the dope, the fact remains that figures
do not always, in fact seldom. give
line on the outcome of series in base
ball.
That the New York team should have
the preference is not at all surprising.
Any team which can make trip around
the circuit and win seventeen out of
twenty-one games on the road is undoubt-
eddy going at terrific speed and will be
hard to beat. This performance will
predispose a lot of followers of the sport
in the Giants favor, but do not forget
that Connie Mack has some ball team,
one which will be hard to beat. no mat

Every time 1T is insinuated that the

much livelier than the one now in
use Philadelphia scribes hurry into
print with denials. And yet the re-
suits of the games played early In the
campaign show very plainly that there
has been a change in balls. Home
runs long drives and clusters of base
hits were to be found in every box
score until the cry went up that the
game was being killed, when there was
sudden change to the old ball. De-
malls or no denials. there is not the
slightest question that for a time this
season the American League used a
livelier ball than has ever been used
since the days of the broth e-hood.

has never been a display of anything
but good, old-fashioned base ball. In
side ball of kind that is not gen

do not take many chances, either. for
there is too much at stake, and tn oSc
who attend these games and expect
to see anything sensational in the way

TRACK MUCH IMPROVED

There was a decided improvement in
conditions at Laurel yesterday afternoon.
While the track was still bad, the going
was not as deep as on the opening day.
and many other improvements were noted
which had been made since Mondays
races. The card lacked the glamour of
the inaugural days sport. the fields in
the different races being made UP of the
ordinary class of racers. Twenty layers
were in line and, considering the attend
ance, speculation was brisk.
William Walker. the Canadian owner,
who shipped here from Toronto, was
very much in evidence. He furnished the
winners in two of the events. and his
stable jockey, Forehand. rode three VIM
ners. Walkers successful candidates
were Sir Edward and Servicence.
The formers victory came after a
long, hard. stretch drive, in which he
was up in the final stride. to beat Lucille
r.. out a head. Servicence made an
exhibition of his field. He took the lead
when the break came, and never relin-
pushed it. drawing away into a lead
of fifteen lengths rounding the far turn
and winning at the end under wraps.
Johnny Hyland furnished a surprise
in the opening race in Republican, a
maiden two-year-old Little was known
of the horses form by the general public,
but his people supported him well, and
the colt won all the way.
