D,ARMOND TRIO.

Last Saturday night the DeArmond Trio
held forth at the ''Y'' in programme that
seemed to please the audience.
While each of them proved TO be an ar
list, the programme was not SO well bal
lanced as it might have been.
Miss Walburn's work on the violin was
of high order and merited the liberal
applause given her.
Mrs. DeArmond's work on the cello
was all right but the one number she rem
dered was hardly enough for one to form
an accurate opinion.
Mr.. DeArmond was suffering from
hoarseness that greatly interfered with his
voice, but his numbers we're all well
received.

DETROIT TEAM STILL
CLAIMING TO BE IN
RACE FOR THE PENNANT

In trying to figure clubs chances
OF winning the flag. the dopester must
remember some OF the spurts put on
by previous champions. With the rise
OF the Braves from a cellar position
in July to the championship OF world
in October less than three years old,
it isn't safe to say that even the Ath-
letics are hopelessly distanced now,
writes e. A. Batdhelor in the Detroit
Free Press.
The Tigers, as everybody knows.
have been. playing mostly bad ball
lately. SO far they have shown abb
solutely nothing to warrant the belief
that they can win the pennant. It
must be remembered, however, that
the club has practically the Same
lineup that. enabled it to come very
close to the championship last season,
with the addition of one pitcher Of
proved excellence in Howard Ehmke
and a couple of others that have
shown signs of promise.
The trouble is that the Jungaleers
have not been getting any favorable
breaks. They have been badly out
elassed in some games, 1t is true, but
could have won many that were lost
If luck .-.1d gone just q little bit more
in their favor.
