SideltgHs on RooseveRs Trip Through West
BY Theodore Tn1er

1t is conceded that Colonel Roosevelt
is the most photographed man in Amer
lea, but when he shall have ended this
campaign tour there'll be absolutely no
hope of anybody catching up with him
in the near future Nobody can esti-
mate how many times the colonel has
been snapped already by professional,
near-professional, and amateur photog-
raphers. When the coloners train
stops at any station the click of a
half dozen cameras are heard; when he
participates in street parade the cam
era fiends occupy places along the
route, sometimes on the ground, more
often in overhanging windows or low
roofs. In a little Iowa town, boasting

Ginnity. Not he Smith may have
been able to peddle pop steadily
through a doubleheader. But when
it comes to pitching-nine innings
is his natural distance.
Smith certainly went eight
spasms at high speed against the
Crackers. They couldn't find him
at all. In the first game the only
hit made was an nfield scratch
that was beaten out by determined
running" Otherwise there was no
hitting done.
In the second game the Crackers
got TO Smith pretty hard, and it is
suspected that Smith saw what was
coming. and rather than admit de-
feat, he hooked up in an argument
with Umpire Breitenstein that got
him put out of the grounds, and
finally out of the park. Two police
men We're used. and it was thor
oughly dramatic. But nobody sus-
poets that Smith was 10th to go.

pitcher His pitching form is awk-

break rather sharply, and a neat

People who know the game on the
island say that Almeida ranks just
as an average good player down

must be real ball players. For he
ranks a mighty long way above
the average players here.

sans. They are as proud as Luci-
fer, and justly so. But most of the
Cuban players are as black as men
are made. OF the blacks-in fact,
of all the islanders-the greatest is
Jose Mendez. He is a pitcher
small, light in weight and very,
very black. The big leaguers who
nave visited the island all say the
same thing-that Mendez lacks only
the complexion of a big Lacquer
They call him the BLACK Mathew

namesake. he is said to have fully

In Cuba the baseball fans are
shade wilder over the game than
they are in the United States. They
are all great believers IN their
teams, and have a notion that moth

And, as far as that goes. they have
usually been able to prove it against
any teams sent down from the
United States.
Another queer thing about base

and the price of tickets ranges from
So cents to 81. At Havana the
crowds range from a couple of
thousand on an average week day
to ten or twelve thousand on Sun
day. The stands there are first
class, the playing fields large and
often rough.
The players of Cuba, on the
whole, are reputed to rank in the
mechanical performance of the
plays right close around those of
this country. OF course. in team
play and in the deeper knowledge
of the game they are lacking, but
they are coming to it fast.

TIME Athletics will not win the
American league pennant. The
Giants will win the National
league pennant.
1t is about time for a fellow to
come out with some bold prophecy
anent the league races on which he
is willing to stake his reputation.
We stake all that we have on the
first paragraph of this whopping
wheeze, In other words. we pro-
claim that the 1911 condition of af-
fairs in the majors will be upset
in just the reverse order of what
everybody expected.
At the start off, many could not
see the Giants comparing with Chi
cagO, Philadelphia and Pittsburg
in general efficiency. Others expect
ed close battle, betting even, some
looked for the Giants to win by a
small margin, but few-practically
none-had any idea that they would
be miles in the lead as they are
now, with the rest of the field so
far in the rear as to be hopelessly
out of it,
The grandstand finish of the
Giants recent Western trip. in
which they more than broke even
after losing seven out of the first
nine games, puts them as distant
from the opposition as ever, and
their present home stand with the
West as invaders should fatten
their percentage even more.
Athletics Seem Out of 1t.
As to the AthleticS-they orig
inally were figured the cinch of a
century. Every one expected them
to spreadeagle the entire array by
this time. just as the Giants have
done. Instead they are Looping along
behind both Red Sox and Senators.
We, for one, would not be sur
prised if both these teams should
stay ahead of the Mack crew to the
end. Between the two of them, we
can discern at least one above the
Quakers when it is all over.
This sounds as though we are

We are picking the brace-both
clubs-and calculate that at least
one of them will be able to main

the way. TO be sure, we, like every

two, and seem possibly a trifie
stronger. But we do not see them
sure thing, which is exactly what
we do see in the two coupled to-
gether Our bet, if we were in
clined to speculate financially,
would be three to one against the
Athletics. In this stating, we count
the Senators as a strong factor.
Don't you ever believe that the
Senators are a joke team this year
Is in the past Ever since Clark
Griffith arrived in Washington they
have been real ball club. Walter
johnson at last is helped with the
pitching burden by the rest of the
staff, the youngsters in particular.
Ainsmith has shown himself one
of the best young catchers of sew
eral years and Henry and Williams
are no slouches either. Clyde Mi
Ian is proving a second Cobb in the
outt1eld this season. Young Fisher

old game at second and the youth
Chick Gandil is a gem Of a first
baseman and hitter Moeller and
Walker who stand on either side of
Milan in the garden, both show real
ability.
Senators Are Well Balanced.
The Senators are a well balanced
team. They have won a majority
of their conflicts with the Red Sox
and have walloped the unmerciful
daylights out of all other clubs ex-
cept the Athletics, who alone have
broken better than even with them
The National league race NAV
now be chalked up as a Giant vic
tory. but the American is still

and Red Sox.
