For the first time in seasons the Cubs invade
Giant soil Monday the under pick.
For the first time in his managerial career Frank
Chance leads forlorn hope against John J. McGraw.
Last the two ancient rivals even in the
betting, and the seasons inter-city count
Now Chance comes to face a club out after his old
record OF 1906 which called for 116 victories In q
championship
or that old Cub machine King Overall, Pfeister.
Chance Steinfeldt, and Sagle are missing
Brown and Reubach, with Evers, Tinker, Schultz,
and Sheckard are still guard.
But the remnant Of this great legion is long
out after world record Of wins it six years
ago. II is quite content to scotch the rush of
its bitterest foe In this record tinted direction.
And the Giants today fifty points better of
than the Cubs at this stage In 1906 when they blew
themselves to 116 wins and percentage Of ,765.
For all Of which II would not be surprising TO see
the Cubs in second place when the full of the
