nit Wagner is not what he was. but as
he stands today he ranks a close third.
Meanwhile Brilliant.
walter MarauVille figures TO be the
best of the shOrtstops because OF his
brilliant aggressive and brainy work
and his speed and DASH which entitle
him TO a lot Of consideration and sew
erel additional points in the scoring.
Maranville did not have q good year
last year. in fact. there were times
when he blew all to pieces. and some OF
the critics thought he was likely TO
slump badly through entertaining Of
his nerve forces. However. he came
back and finished strong and looked to
he really "a better player than he was
the year before. Things We're not
breaking for him as they were then.
and the test of the real player is what
he does when things are going wrong.
He needed Evers alongside of him. and
undoubtedly his work was hurt by
Everss frequent lapses from the game.
Bancroft Valuable ShOrfstOp-
Bancroft is the most valuable acqui-
sition in the shOrtstop line made i'm
many years. He made the Phillies last
season. carried the infield when il was
Wabblins around, and showed that he
had all the class that was claimed for
him. He hit about to his naturai gait.
and in spite Of the fact that his average
is not high, ii is above that Of the
average shortstop. and he looked a
better hitter in the worlds series
against the speed and shoots of the Red
SOX than he did during the regular sea-
son He was hitting well even when
he did not hit safely and he was well
ND in the safeties That fellow ought TO
hit even better as he goes along and
his sensational fielding certainly has
not been a fluke. ] expect both Naran-
vile and Bancroft to hit better this
season than they did last, even admit
ting that National league pitching viii

TEW YORK, March 15-Outside
M Of Philadelphia and its suburbs
the general opinion is that the
Phillies won't repeat. They will take
the field with practically the same line
up as in 1915. That aggregation was
powerful enough to win the flag last
year-but this is another season. one
during which the Moranites will find
hercer opposition than ever before
Probably never again will any ball
club be favored with such a combina-
ton Of breaks" as were those 1915
Phillies. The greatest Of all came
through the woeful wea kness Of the
Giants and several other clubs. Had
those clubs offered any real battle the
road would have been rar rougher for
Pat Morsns nsfits.
How Events TranHpire.
The Braves chased the Phillies and
seemed to have good chance to over
haul them. And then, James, the pitch
ing star. had to quit the game Other
reverses followed and the Braves were
distanced. The Dodgers whizzed along
only to crack in the stretch when their
batters forgot the ordinary use for the
war clubs.
While Cactus" Cravath was blowing
himself to a home run record. Alex
ander was pitching as he never pitched
before. And on top Of it all, the Phil
lies gathered unto themselves almost
all the baseball luck that was doled out
by Dame Fortune throughout the sea-
son.
Won't BE Favored Again.
Favored thusly. the Phillies swept
through TO victory. But they never
will De so universally favored again
Cravath may make more home runs in
a single season than he did in 1916
but it's unlikely that he'll turn the
trick while Alexander is pitching him
self into the league leadership. And
vice versa Even should this happen
again. it seems hardly possible that
IL will come in the same year when
there are four woefully weak clubs in
the field and three others weakened
by injuries OF other misfOrtunes
