National League the Better Pitching

The dope would indicate that the National League
has trhe better pitching. There were not manv
strong STATS in the American League this past
in fact no club carried any staff to brag about There
wasn't an American League staff as strong as that
shown by the Reds Giants or Cubs
Weakness in the box featured the play of White
Sox, Cleveland Indians, Tigers and Red Sox
The Tigers had four 800 hitters two of them
above $780, and yet they couldn't finish third The
Yankee staff looked strong early in the spring one Of
the best; but it weakened perceptibly after June.
The Red Staff was bird The Giant staff. with
Barnes Nehf, Benton and Toney, first class. The
Cubs, with Alexander, Vaughn, Tyler and Hendrix was
far above the average.
We doubt very much that Cobb would have batted
$3.50 or even 800 in the National League and that
others above $40 would have been above 800
New-York tribune., 1919-10-12

When Pat Moran sent five clubmen in succession
who held the White Sox to a batting average around
18l, violent argument Immediately arose during the
series to whether American League pitching came
up to the National League standard
The debate reached classic heights at times between
the partisans of the two leagues and it argued
that If the White Sox could bat 2S7 against American
League pitchers and then dropped to .1S1 against
complete National League staff the wide discrepancy
must show something
National League partisans said that it showed a
vast superiority in National League pitching.
American League rooters stated that it merely
showed White Sox slump. And there you are as

Flushing Lads Roll Up a
Score of 81 to @ Over
the Morris High Team

Flushing High School trampled on
Morris High School, of The Bronx. to
the tune Of 81 to score yesterday
in it's opening football game of the
season. Morris was utterly routed
from the first minute of play, when
Bleecker, the Flushing back, caught the
kickoff to run the length of the field
for touchdown.
The Bronx eleven was unable to
stop the crashes Of the Flushing back
field, which literally tore through the
defensive line as if it were paper
Gains Of from fifteen to twenty yards
were common for the Long Island back
field men, who at the same time in
varlably stopped the Morris plungers
In their tracks. Morris never serious
~ threatened the Flushing goal, for it
found it impossible to pierce the op-
posing line.
Forward passes were called into play
infrequently, and while Morris sue.
ceeded in completing a few short ones.
the play proved damaging to its users
Two Of the forwards were intercepted,
and touchdowns resulted The Morris
boys fumbled often, and two of these
on kick-offs led directly to the scoring
of four of the nine touchdowns.
The Flushing backfeld, made up of
Bach, Bleecker, Burton and Schmidt,
played a sterling game on both offence
and defence. Blocker, Burton and
Schmidt each scored three touchdowns.
while Bach kicked seven of the nine
goals.

Mad Halter Wins
LatOnia Feature
Over Muddy Track

LATONIA, Ky, Oct. 11.-Mad Halter,
owned by S. c. Hildreth and ridden by
Jockey l.. Fator, won the $4,000 La
tonia Championship Stake at mile
and three-quarters here to-day by
eight lengths on track that was a sea
of mud. Sway, piloted by Jockey C.
Yam Dusen, finished second one and
one-half lengths ahead of Stockwell.
The time was 3:06, which was rather
slow for the distance. But this was due
to the miserable track conditions.
Seven horses started, each carrying
122 pounds. The value to the winner
was $4,000.
Mad Halter, the Eastern representa-
tive in the race, took the lead when
the horses passed the mile and a half
post and was in no danger of losing
his advantage thereafter.
At the quarters post John O.
was in the lead by five lengths. Chas-
seur was second by half length and
War Spirit third by two lengths. They
were followed by Mad Halter, Stock
we'll. Linden and Sway in the order
named. AT the mile and half John 0.
was still leading by length, Sway was
second by head and Mad Halter third.
by half length, with War Spirit,
Stockwell, Linden and Chasseur bring
ing up the rear.
At the finish War Spirit was fifteen
lengths behind Stockwell, with Linden,
John O. and Chasseur finishing in that
order
Mad Halter paid $3.50 to win, 1870
place, and 1920 to show. The betting
on Sway was IS place and $3.50 show,
and that on Stockwell 50 to show. .

Four Star Bouts
In Newark ArmOry
Tomorrow Night

Boxing, along with football, now
takes the centre of the stage in sports.
The next really big boxinr show is the
all-star card arranged by Dave Mackay
manager of the Newark Sportsmen's
Club, for tomorrow night in the 1st
Regiment Armory in Newark.
A galaxy of pugilistic stars will
furnish the four feature bouts. First
there is Al Roberts, of Staten Island
the latest sensation among the heavy
weights. Although Al has been in the
game less than a year he has knocked
out seventeen of the nineteen men
who have faced him. The two who
withstood his punches for the limit are
Johnny Saxon and Charlie Weinert
both of Newark. Tomorrow night
Roberts again meets Weinert.
"1t's my ambition to have record
OF knocking out every man l meet
said Roberts last night. "If I don't
do it the first time Pm going to keep
after the fellow till finally get him.
Benny Valgar, the Brooklyn feather
weight, and frankie Brown, of Phila-
delphia, will meet in the second eight
round bout. Brown scored clean
knockdown over Johnny Kilbane and
expects to stop Valgar. Willie Jack
son, another knockout star, and Tommy
Touhey, of Philadelphia, will meet in
the third bout of the night. Willie
last week stopped Eddie Morgan in
Philadelphia.
The final bout will bring together
Pete Herman, bantamweight champion
of the world, and Harold Faresc. a
coming star of Newark. Farese has
beaten all the best men in his class
and for the last year has been forced
to meet featherweights and light
weights. This is his big chance, and
he will take every legitimate chance
in order to score q Knockout.
