National League.

The absolute reliability Of Fullerton
dope from every carefully constructed
angle may be testified TO by inspection
OF the club standing as carried in cur
rent prints.
In making his calculations Fullerton
admitted that he was surprised at the
way some of them worked out. but
this surprise did not sway him from
the absolute conclusions which were
reached by his uncomfortable system.
For instance, he said in his "predic-
ton" under date of April 90:
This Dope Indeed Astonishing.
ut is astonishing to find that the
dope indicates the Detroit Tigers will
finish last in the American League.
with Washington and st. Louis tied
for sixth place and the Athletics lead
ing the second division. In the older
league, Philadelphia should finish a
poor last"
Fullerton goes on to say that Detroit
should start well, then slip. As a
matter of fact, Detroit did not start
well, but was in the second division ex-
cept for few days now and then until
after the Fourth of July. He said
that in the National League the Cubs
would have slow start and then come
fast in the latter stages. As a matter
OF fact, the Cubs have hardly been out
of the first division all season.
However, in justice TO Fullerton, he
did here and there hit off somewhere
near few things that happened, bu.
even so, as prognosticator he runs
way down in the second division.

FULLERTON'S SYSTEM
CAN'T BE AT FAULT
You Will Have to Blame the
Ball Clubs.

dope on how the worlds series will

this October won't be on the field. Yes,

and none at all 10 the Reds last spring

league races would run. List TO what
Fullerton said on April %, the day
the major leagues opened, on how they
would finish:
"The worlds series will be between
Cleveland, which team will win on.
after hard struggle with Boston, and
the Chicago Cubs, who, after a wabbly
start, will wear down and bea. out the
New York Giants, with Pittsburgh
fading out toward the end OF the
season.
"The dope leaves no doubt as to how
the teams ought to finish. have tested
1t out in three different ways and the
result of each test has been approx
imately the same"
Here Are the Exact Figures.
Having thus made sure of the gen

The idea Of the Episcopal church
appropriating money TO christianize
the Jews strikes the latter as absurd,
as we knew it would be. Besides, in
the course Of human events the Jews
will own the Episcopal churches, and
then they can appropriate the funds
to christianize themselves.
