Take Crucial Swing
BY KIRK C., MILLER.

Peering into that N. L. hunt with
one eye and allowing the other to
glance earelessly at the menu prepared
for It embracing the coming two weeks
during which 1t follows distinctly
westerly course, the conclusion is
naturally reached that as far as Phila-
delphia and Brooklyn are concerned, to
say naught of the Giants, they are
just getting into the turn which leads
to the straightaway.
That trite expression, Crucial best
describes the trip which the East is
taking into the West, and II those

wind-ups awaiting its scrutiny that
either league will ever have presented.

to the entire satisfaction OF their man,
ayers and followers. II they can hold
the same steady cadence until they
are again meeting the enemy on their
own grounds, then the straightaway
will have been reached and great will
Re the finish thereof.
Unless the National League gonfeion
Is to be acquired at reduction this
season. the winner thereof must travel
in plain words. the winning or two
games out OF each three played. Neither
Philadelphia nor Brooklyn has done
this at any time this season. as their

dopesters who have already commence
to indicate their favorites In the milo
manner Of placing coin of the realm on
q possible winner This custom has al
ready begun In New York. where Gus
toms and the like usually originate.
Wonderful pitching has been the chief
factor in keeping the Phillies where
they are today. for Moran's men have
not been hitting up to their usual form,
and many chances to win games have
been thrown away by inability Of the
PLAYERS to hit In the pinches.
The National League race is not set
tied by any means. and the leaders
mist keep right on moving to hold their
position. Manager Pat Moran Is watch

other team in the league, for Robinsons 8

The Brooklyn Superbas refuse to crack

should string the race out a little bit.
Tho weather Is such that the clubs are
getting in shape where they can sho"
their true torn. The ones that have
been piling along under forced pres,
sure will begin to crack. and whole
lot better baseball will be played in the
National League race from this stage
to the finish than has been exhibited 50
far. OF course. l cneertully admit there
IS plenty Of room for this promised i'm
provement.
l count Cincinnati right out OF the
going at this writing. The Reds haven't
chance for the pennant. but there is
not another club in the league which Is
not carrying an outside chance to look
In for the nag. at least. 1t is a great
race for a dark horse to cross tne
dopesters. II johnny Evers should be
hurt again, and that Is not at all un-
likely. Boston would have hard
struggle holding the pace which Is
bound to follow to the end OF the
schedule. Some clubs have stayed up so
far because of the false form In the
league. freely admit couple OF IN
jured regulars would cripple us badly.
especially in the pitching department
where we are short of talent anyway.
On the outlook today, | would not
say st. Louis had much of chance to
cop, but Huggins is liable to bring his
club home In the first division. 1t Is a
team of fighters. Any club Of scrappers
has, at least, an outside chance in
such close competition. There is not
any too much class to the Cardinals.
The Cubs have slipped, and the team
Is not going nearly as well as 1t was.
while the other clubs IN the league
have improved. The old boys on the
team are beginning to feel the heat
and are not hustling as hard as they
did. Neither are they all pulling to-
gether so strong. 1t Is usually this
way with veterans as the season works
around. 4 manager must be Simon
legree to keep the boys going.
l don't figure the Pittsburgh club ia
come very strong. Wagner is liable Il
be in and out Of the game and. when
Wagner Is out. the Pirates are more OF

team Is still making good gong, and the

they are Liable to be up there in the
fight to the finish. Moran has had
grand pitching. and he knows how to
keep his twirlers working along at their
the country to handle twirlers from the
experience he had as catcher.
The best showing Of the week has
been made by the Philadelphia club
which has fought It's way Ssn back ost ,n,o
ed BY the Chicago Cubs. As rule in
tho past, when a Philadelphia team has
been once pushed out Of hrst place. the
boss has never been able to get the
sand on the rails In time to stop it slip
the second division. But the fact 1t
pulled back this time indicates the spirit
is doing wonders for the team. 1t ha:
the fight in 1t combined with some good
ball players and very nigh class pitch-
ing, as have said.
As I have predicted. the Cubs are
slumping. The team had never looked
to me like championship CONTENDER IN
SO far. and could not figure 1t as such.
1t has not the speed nor the power to
drive 1t through. even IN race IN which
the clubs are as weak as they are in
this seasons going. -,
In the next few weeks. Stallings will
climb with his Boston Braves. for there
Is no doubt the team carries the punch.
Somebody has come to the front with
the remark that the Braves swore their
season. but nothing could he farther
from the truth as far as my experience
went. In spite Of the general belief that
ball players never open their NOUNS
without letting some hard word slip
