THE sEAsoN.

Tomorrow will usher In the baseball
season for 1917 in the National and
American leagues. Just what effect
the war will rave on the great nation
al sport this summe remains to be
seen. II may be that the attention
of many people will be diverted from
pleasure to the more serious situation
with which the nation Is confronted.
but il is hardly probable that this
condition viii prevail to any great ex-
tent. as baseball has such a hold upon
the American people that they viii
attend the games II IL is at all possible
for them to do so.
The Boston Red Sox will enter the
arena with practically the same team
with which they won two pennants.
They. however. have n new pilot In
the person Of Jack Barry. Speaker
and Carrigan are the only absentecs
from the 1915 champs. Therefore, the
eyes OF the bugs will be focused on
the Red sox right from the tap OF thc
gong.
The Detroit Tigers. the Cleveland
Indians N the Chicago White SOx
all look formidable enough on the
eve OF the seasons opening. Barring
accidents. the New York Yankees
should be In the thick OF the fray from
the tap OF the gorg. And with a num-
Der of youngsters In their lineup the
Athletics also seem to have an eX-
.cellent nance 20 get back into the
training
Fielder JOnes's Browns, who gave
the leaders considerable trouble last
year. are a likely looking bunch Of
FASTENERS. And the senators, with the
great Walter johnson on the job. are
always dangerous.
In the National league all eyes seem
20 be focused on tho New York Giants.
Many Of the critics have picked the
McGraw aggregation to whip the tar
out of the champion Brooklyn ,eam.
the Braves and All the other national
outfits still. even baseball experts
have beer known 10 pick losers.
Given an equal share Of the breaks
of the game, the Braves are well
equipped TO keep up with the pennant
procession. Then. too, the Brooklyn
Robins should have something to say
abou, the struggle FOR the flag, Brook
lyn's wir Of the championship last
year may or may not have been q
fluke, In any case the team that cops
the flag has Go be reckoned with.
As for the Phinies, they have play
ed real ball under Pat Moran the past
two years and can he expected 20 be
out there fighting for everything again
this season.
Fred Mitchell. having only recentl,
enlisted Ia the big league managerial
ranks, h eager 10 show fandom tina
the cubs are first division FASTENERS
and able 10 give the best Of them a
run FOR the hoonrs.
Some new talent la the way Of
young and ambitious pastimcrs has
been added to the Cardinals, Pirates
ana RsdlegH. Based on last year,
record's the only hope for these teams
to get anyp here lies IN the discovery
Of a star or two among the rockies.
