Grifs Have Dropped
Out of Pennar1t Race
Western Writers Say Team Is Formidable Only
When Johnson Is at His Best-Mack Switches
Choice From Red Sox to Yankees.
BY LOUIS A. BOUCHER.

CLEVELAND. July 3l.-That tho
Griffmen have dropped out Of the
1916 campaign as real contenders for
the gonfalon. leaving only Chicago to
make a battle against Boston. Cleve-
land. New York. and Detroit. seems
the prevailing opinion among Detroit
and Cleveland baseball writer's.
Despite the feelings OF Washington
fans, these writer's insist. as they
have been insisting for many moons.
that Walter Johnson alone makes his
team formidable. Furthermore, as he
cannot pitch every day. the Griffs are
not really formidable on three days
In every four.
And. again. with Johnson not en-
joying a particularly prosperous year
in the harvesting Of victories. these
writer's decline to take the Griffmen
seriously.
Whether or not the Griffs have
dropped by the wayside. certainly
such a decision can find small foun-
dalton In reason after peeking at the
standings Of the clubs.
There are yet six clubs with
chances to win the 1916 pennant In
the American League. II Is too early
TO predict the positive failure OF any
one of the leading half dozen.
The Griffs may not be victorious IN
the final rush down the stretch. but
they are not to be counted out igno-
miniously before August arrives.

S|SLER WOULD HAVE
TY COBB'S RECORD

The most talked of baseball player
In America just now is a man whose
name was almost unknown to the fan
throngs two seasons ago. He is George
Sisler. first baseman of the st. Louis
American League team.
In a recent decision. the National
Commission affirmed the right Of the
Browns to use Slsler in their lineup.
thus defeating the hopes of Barney
Dreyfuss. president OF the Pittsbursh
team. who claimed him.
contract Sisler signed at the age Of
seventeen with the Akron o. and p.
team led to the muddle. In declaring
the contract null and void because It
was sighed by a minor. the National
Commission was only following an I'm.
broken ruling Of the civil courts.
sisler was twenty-three years old last
March. He is feet 10,l inches high
and weighs les pounds. He can play
any position on the field. except
catcher. but prefers first basing.
He fully believes that some day he
will enjoy the same ranking as Ty Cobb
In the American League.
Sisler was graduated in mechanical
engineering at the University OF Michi-

baseball. st. Louis pays him $500 q

WORLDS CHAMPS IN

NEW YORK. July s1.-The worlds

today. and the Yankees star Is on the
wane st. Louis southpaws soaped the
chutes down which Donovan's crippled
crew slid to third place. while oBston
climbed to the pinnacle. and the White
Sox took second place.
In losing their position as leaders.
the Yankees lost little in prestige or
honor. for they have furnished the SEN
sation of the season. and 1t was with
five subs In the ranks that they finally
released their hold on the top.
The past week in baseball was the
most dramatic Of q month. for not only
did It mark the fall Of the New York
Americans and the consequent tighten
ing Of the league race. but the st. Louis
Browns. Just a step above the cellar,
crowded ten straight victories into eight
days work.
National scramble. with the positions or
the challengers unchanged.
Chicago. Detroit. and St. Louis had
the best records for the past week In
the johnson circuit. while Washington
and the Athletics failed to win a single
game. In the National. the Braves.
pulling most OF their victories from the
fire by one run. made the greatest gains
on :he field.

Connie Mack's Idea.

Connie Mack Is said to have
switched from the Red Sox to the
Yankees as his choice for the PEN
nant this year. II this be true. 1t
might be well for the fans to take
heed. Connie is pretty nearly the
shrewdest man connected with base
ball.
Connie has picked a powerful ag-
gregation. too. in the Yankees.
whenever a ball club can hold Its
own in a tight race. 1t is strong
team. But when club can be de-
prived of six stars for periods ex.
tending into months each and still
maintain the grueling labor Of set
ting the pace for the leasue-that Is
some ball team. It happens to be
the Yankees Of 1916.
There Is danger for every con.
tender in the race in the gradual
recoveries Of those injured Yankees.
From now till the curtain falls In
October the luck. strength. and
gameness OF the team will be sorely
tried. II Bill Donovan can summon
his stars to the battle line, still keep
ing his present proportion of daily
luck. the Yankees may win their
first pennant.
