THAT VALLEY TRIP
Lost to Prescott and Williams but Oh
Boy, What a Good Time!

Last Friday morning No. 1 carried
the Winslow High School Basket Ball
five on the promised valley trip. Only
two of the five prospective games re-
mained on schedule, being Williams
and Prescott. Coach Brannigan had
succeeded in making his players be-
lieve that both would be hard fought
games and such they proved to be.
AT Williams small court with low
ceiling and nine-foot baskets proved
a handicap to the visitors. Cleaver
manipulation of the art and steady
team work often carried the ball in
Winslow territory but the scoring
machine would not register under a
low ceiling. At the close of the game
the score stood Is to 29 against the
visitors. The boys left Williams at
$40 and after a long layover in Ash
fork they arrived at five in the morn
ing at Prescott. Hotel Accommodations
had been arranged for at Prescott and
the visitors needed no second invita-
tion to sleep. At noon and in the
evening the boys were entertained in
private homes. and they are still talk
ing about that Prescott hospitality.
Prescott high school may Justly
boast OF their plendid gymnasium
for it made the Winslow boys 'siust
green with envy" when they gazed up
on it. Space was no handicap here
except that there was too mucr of it
around the basket Here the final
score was to 20 in favor of the own
ers of that spacious gymnasium.
Arrangement had been made for
Winslow to furnish the referee at
Williams and Mr.. Britt served in that
capacity. After the teams arrived at
Prescott it was found that the Pres
colt coach and he were old school
mates, so he also officiated there.

AN IDEAL PLACE FOR
N { A | S
Is Trinity Church Squatter9

Trinity Church in New York is un-
doubtedly the richest Protestant
Church in the world. 1t collects rents
from a vast expanse of the most valu-
able real estate in downtown New
York. But do it's immense real estate
holdings really belong to Trinity or
to the people of New York. Ever since
1909, this has been the subject of bit
ter debate. Trinity has always been
powerful enough to prevent hostile
action but never powerful enough to
secure legislation to decide the ques-
ton in her favor and quiet the agita-
tion.
How Trinity took possession of the
property and her two centuries of
struggle to retain it's ownership is
the subject of an interesting article
by Laura Elmendorf Skeels in Hearsts
Magazine for December.

the Red catchers. Schalk is baseballs
greatest catcher. and while Rariden and
Wingo are good men, they suffer In
contrast to Schalk just as Rath suffers
when he is lined up against Eddie
Collins. To Rariden's credit it must be
said that he outhit and outfielded Schalk
in 1917, though Ray proved the better
general.
Pitching is the only department in
which Cincinnati can be given a higher
rating than the White Sox.
In base-stealing the clubs are evenly
matched. Neale is Cincinnati's most
proficient athlete in that direction, while
Ed Collins leads the Chicago base
runners Eddie, however, is not the
baserunner he was in the series in
which he played against the Giants in
1911 and 1913. Several times in those
years Collins went over eighty steals

In team-batting the White Sex excel
Cincinnati by about twenty points, quite
comfortable margin. AS matter Of
fact Gleason's team is batting twenty.

Cages worlds champions. Only Felsch
a 1908 man in 1917, is batting below
his gait of that year. Jackson, Collins,

are all hitting considerably better than
in 1917. In fact outside Of pitchers the

In long distance hitting the White Sox

Managers Evenly Matched.
There is little to choose between the
managers. Both are close students OF
the game and belong to the type OF
manager who will get the very best

mands. Both are likely to "salve'
their players along and big brother

In brief summing up, we find that
Chicago leads in batting. long distance
hitting and experience by quite a
margin. while the White Sox also have
little edge in fielding sdue to the I'm.
certainty in Cincinnati's left field pos.
ton and the presence of Schalk and Ed
Collins on the Chicago club. In base
running and managerial skill the teams
are even. In only pitching does Cincin-
natl excel.
The question then must be asked

championship hinged on It. The Giants
weren't treated like visiting ballplayers
but like aliens from foreign land.
And baseball fervor has been at the
boiling point ever since. The nigh
price asked for Worlds Series tickets
in Cincinnati has made a lot OF IN.
Redland burghers complain, but they are
not so peeved that they will not do

ter to obtain the precious pasteboards.
Garry Hermann has over 100000 ap-
plications for the 10000 seats at his
park which will be reserved. They are

Chicago is not so aroused over the

last week Charley Comiskey announced
that he already had received 10000
more applications for reserved seats
than he can take care Of, with thou
sands OF additional applications COM

A Habit in Chicago.
Naturally the man in the street is
not as much excited about the coming
Worlds Series in Chicago as he Is in
Cincinnati With the Windy City fan
Worlds Baseball Series are pretty much
old stuff. This is Chicago's seventh
series in the last fourteen years, and
it's third in succession. In 1917 the
White Sox defeated the Giants, and in
1918 the Cubs lost to the Red Sox.
News associations report that never
in any Worlds Series has there been
the call for wires and service as for
the coming series. Every little hamlet
in the middle West has put In an
application for wire so that score
boards may be erected. The South also
Is more anxious TO get results of these
series than ever before. The Reds have
many Dixie friends, especially through
Kentucky and Tennessee. In the rest
of the country the same intense inter-
est Is reported as was evidenced two
years ago when the Giants played the
White SoX. Despite the fact that
America then had been a participant in
the war for six months news associa-
tons In 1917 were called upon for a
more extensive Worlds Series service
than ever before.
Who will win the Worlds Series? The
National League has got to be consid-
cred the under-dog In World Series
play. The league now occupies pretty
much the same position in baseball that
Harvard held In football before Percy
Haughton took hold.

games.
Since the Pirates vanquished Detroit

biaVes won their pennant after advanc-

narkable achievement by beating the
supposedly invincible Athletics gener-
ally admitted to be the greatest team

The Athletics entered that series heavier
LaVorites than any American League
team that ever entered worlds series.
The Reds OF 1919 lately have been
compared quite frequently to the Braves
or 1914, and Cincinnati writer's and
others advancing the cause of the Reds
predict that the impetus which landed
the Cincinnati club in first place In the
National League will also carry It safely
Z rough the worlds series.
However the cases of the Reds and
braves are not exactly parallel Ad-
hitting that both were dark horses

tons.
Reds Started Strongly.
Unlike the 1914 Braves, the Reds got
on to fine start and led a good part of
the time In the spring. alternating the
league leadership with Brooklyn. The
Giants did pass them in May, but New
york never had much of a lead, the
Peds plugging along right at McGraw's
heels. When the clubs met in August
and Cincinnati won two out of three Il
was enough to give them first place.
They held 1t from that time ON and
won comparatively easy victory. The
Braves of 1914 played great ball In
their own league to the eve OF the series,
while Cincinnati has slumped per-
ceptibly since 1t made its remarkable
tour through the East in late August.
Then II also Is pointed out that IL
Is Cincinnatrs turn to win because of
the -four year rule" by which the Ma
tional League captures a worlds cham
pionship every four years. The Ma
tional League won its last worlds cham
plonship in 1914, when the Braves won,
and prior to the Boston victory the old
league won its last triumph In 1909,
when Pittsburg defeated Detroit. Then
four years before that-19O5--the
Giants beat the Athletics, though there
were two Cub worlds series victories
between those dates.
Another argument In cinclnnatfs
favor is. that the National League has
won the three all-western worlds series

Defensively and extensively the White

Chicago InaeId Greater.
Moran has a grand infield, and It is
stronger on the field than II looks on
paper 1t was easily the smoothest
working infield in the National League
But even here the White Sox must be
given the better mark. The presence OF
Eddie Collins at second base would be
sufficient to give the White Sox the best
of It. For Collins Is to infielders what
Cobb is to outfielders And Collins
stands at the very top among worlds Sc
ries stars.
II is hard on a man like Rath to be
stacked up against Collins. as Rath is
far from a weakling. Though he has
been in and out OF the big leagues for a
decade he has played grand ball this
year, and played a better game at sec
ond than any second baseman that the
Reds have brought to town since Miller
Higgins, was In his prime. But Rath
is no Collins.
1t is pretty even at first base between
Daubert and Chick Gandil. though GAN
dill did better work in the 1917 worlds
series than Daubert did the year before

Naturally with nine game series the

much of an advantage as It has been in
the former seven game series. In fact,
