AMERICAN LEAGUE
 WINS MORE HONORS
JohnSon's Workmen Lay It on
 Tener's in Spring Series

New York, April 15.-The Amer lean League again skinned the Ma t1onal League alive in the spring 1nterleague series played during the past three weeks. AS this years schedule was the most elaborate ar ranged by teams representing the two leagues and took in all clubs with the exception of the two Chicago teams, the games seem to bear out the fact that the American League has decided edge on the Nationals, as already has been evidenced by the younger leagues victories in seven of the last eight worlds series.
 The Boston Braves and Cincinnati Reds especially were routed by their American League opponents while the Brooklyn team saved itself a rout by great comeback after the Bos- ton Red Sox had won six games out of the first seven. The series ended seven gam es to five in Bostons favor. The Giants held their own with Cleveland, each club winning three games, while a seventh ended in tie. The Athletics and Pirates divided a : four games series, but the Browns ! cleaned up the Cardinals in the spring St Louis series
 E~hSS lOS XAuhS aLlu lfEcFS. The Yankees and the Detroit Tigers inflicted brutal punishment on their . National League opponents, and their decisive victories gave the Americans the big edge. The Yankees won seven out of eight games and scored 3e runs against 15 for the Braves. | The Braves were shut out three times and only twice in the series did Bos- 13 game.
 Detroit won nine out of twelve games from Cincinnati, and In doing so ran up 83 runs to 4o runs for the Cincinnatis.
