All iokeng to 1 side, wouldn't be
surprised if this serious was win and
lose on it's merits. 1 will promise the
fans that if either club is boughten
off it won't be the Robins. The gamblers
seen them perform in the serious of
1916, and feel like it would be a waist
of money to bride them to not play
their best. They can do that without
no bonus. Besides witch the boys on
the Brooklyn nine is as nice a bunch
as you would want to meet, and I
would trust them with anything / got
at per cent though several of them
has often double crossed the men they
was working for For inst. they led Stall
lings and Chance and McGraw and etc.
to believe that they wasn't no good SO
as they could get to Brooklyn, and as
soon as they got there-look at them.

The Robins is doped to win by some of
them. Others say they would half to

in 1916, but they want to- remember
that Brooklyn yrs. ago, and Brooklyn
now is two different boroughs. Some
of the Robins witch was in their early
forties when they played the Red Sox
has had time to mellow without getting
over ripe or rancid. as Robbie has kept
them in a cool place near the cellar
most of the while And, with a few
exceptions, they are mostly all birds
that has had too much experience to
get scared in a pinch. !

Personally I don't like neither clubs
chances, and won't recommend neither
of them because even man like myself
can't know everything. Last yr., for
White Sox was a cinch and go bet on
them, but that was because l didn't
have no idear how many good ball play.

My advice to the fan this time Is 70
watch the umpires close, and II one
of them pulls close one that looks raw

The gcnl custom for a expert at this
stage is to take the 2 opposing teams
and compare them man for man ana IN
that way the readers VIII get a pretty
good idear of nothing. Look at last

So am under the delusion that

a few vital statistics in regards to

In 1916 President Ebbets of the
