Within a few weeks Griffith watched d
Barber in d number of games here,

Today eleven and q half games ahead
Of Philadelphia, now in second place,
they are breezing along in the terri

meet their strongest opposition and
are crushing the enemy.
Between PHILADELPHIA and New
York, the Cincinnati pennant hopes
have been kicked to tiny pieces.
Brooklyn Clipped in with a string OF
victories over Mathewson's Reds.
On the performances OF Western
clubs in the last few days the Cardin-
ais appear to have an edge. They
have suffered no long losing streak,
and while they have fiivvered at
times they have done considerable
battering themselves. The Giants go
to ST. Louis after they finish in Gin
cinnati.
II evidently is sQuarely UP to the
Cardinals to take a tremendous
whack at the Giants or take seats
In the grandstand to watch New York
dash down the stretch. Philadelphia
has rooted the Cards out OF second
place. but there is still plenty Of
punch Of the ct. Louis. They will
give the Giants some fiery argu-
ments.
The White Sox have put some dis
tance between themselves and their
opponents since the Red Sox threw
scare into them in Boston. They
now stand in the van by three and
a half games with more games at
Philadelphia and a set at Washington
scheduled. The Red Sox are having
plenty OF trouble with Cleveland
which promises trouble for the White
Sox later.
