ABILITY, NOT LUCK,
WINNING FOR GIANTS
RY SAM CRANF

New York, n Y, June 1S.-Much has
been written about zhat=are. called the
breaks in a game Of baseball Ball
players themselves know the breaks"
as the shades of advantage that go
TO one team or the other through what
is known as baseball luck Those
players who do not delve deeply into
the study Of the spOrLusualy associate
the breaks with whole barrels Of
hOrseshOes that are supposedly con-
.cealed somewhere about the persons
Of the players to whom the breaks"
come the most frequently. and it is
an impOssibility TO turn the tide Of
victory against the holders OF the en-
blems Of good luck.
Unsuccessful managers and players
on losing teams are constantly harp
ing on the luck Of the other fellows,
who lead them in victories In the
long run. though it will always be
found that the hangers and players,
who study the stages of the game
and formulate shifts Of attack and de-
fence to conform to unexpected stu
atoms and conditions forced on them
by either reconciliation by their Op-
ponents or the many variable chances
the game affords, are the ones who
are the consistent winners year after
year
sOcaued Lucky Ones
It IS the students Of the game the
quick thinkers, who have had the orig
fnality to formulate systems of their
own. but stiu flexible enough to al
low any plan Of campaign TO be
changed on the spur OF the moment
TO face and offset unexpected exig-
encies that are so liable 10 arise, who
are the sOcalled lucky ones, but inTa-
riably in the winning cOteTie.
There arc Manager players. yes,
and magnates and. OF course, fans. who
are even now crying HOrseshOest"
whenever the Giants and their Won
derrul seasons record are brought mp
for argument and discussion. But. TO
give New York due credit for any
thing is considered in many other cities
Of the National league circuit to be
an objectionable offence, 50. nOn-appre-

1t Is Not Luck.

Poverty and Booze

It is argued by some saloon apologists that power
ty is Just as responsible for drunkenness as drunken
ness is responsible for poverty That men and women
living in squaor, suffering physically for want OF
food and clothing; always under mental strain induced
by the uncertainty of provision for the morrow seek
surcease in alcoholic drinks. Be that as it may this
much certain that the nickel spent for glass OF beer
would buy loaf of bread, that thousands OF hungry
ha-clothed children suffering the pangs OF pow
erty because of alcohol is fact beyond dispute. With
this large class who know want it is certainly clear
case Of poverty because of drink not drink because OF
poverty.
The Associated Press, of last week, contributes
direct evidence however, that supports the the
