81 rarely make predictions and do not
wish to begin now. on the eve Of a struggle
that promises TO he hard fought from be-
ginning TO end. OF course, the Giants, who
won the flag last year, can be expected to
make brave fight TO repeat, but some OF
the other teams have been strengthened,
or 80 It looks, which means plenty Of keen
competition. Unless sadly mistaken, am
sure that baseball will enjoy It's most
