CHAMPIONSHIP NEVER
WON BY FIVE TEAMS
Senators, Indians, Browns,
YankS and Cards Yet to Win.
During Six Successive Years just
Ended No Club Has Repeated-In
American League Four Clubs
Have Had Monopoly.

Pennant winning in the National
Gle and if the Pirates and Cardinals
only could win the pennant races Of
1920 and 1921 the circle would be
complete During the six successive
seasons ending with the last cam
paign no club has repeated as a PEN
nant winner, and no team has man
aged to win two pennants. The Bos-
ton Braves won in 1914 and the three
other eastern clubs carried off the
honors in the next three seaSOns-the
Phillies in 1915, the Dodgers in 1916,
and the Giants in 1917. Last year the
pennant moved westward and went to
the Cubs Now the Reds have won
the honors, but 1t is doubtful that
either the Pirates or the Cardinals will
be able to add another link to the
chain that has been forged during the
last six years.
Pennant winning has been something
Of monopoly in the past, two or three
clubs taking most of the honors over
IA long stretch of years. From 1890
to 1900, inclusive, the Boston. Brook
Ign and Baltimore clubs did all the
pennant winning in the National
league. Boston won five remnants,
while Baltimore and Brooklyn got
three apiece.
From 1901 to 1913, inclusive, the
Giants, Cubs end Pirates did all the
winning in the National league. TIE
giants won in 19O4-5 and 1911-12-13,
The Pirates in 19O1-2-3 and 1909, and
the Cubs winning in 1906-7-S and 1910.
The Braves broke into the charmed
circle in 1914, and since that year the
pennants have been moving from city
to city. The ST. Louis National league
cub is the only one of the senior ma
Jor league which never has had pen
nant winner.
In the American league only four OF
the eight cities have had pennant win
ners since the league was started 20
years ago. Philadelphia and Boston
lead with six pennants each, Chicago
has won five flags, while Detroit has
Chicago won in 1901, 1906, 1917 and
1919. Philadelphia won in 1902, 1905,
1901, and 1913-14 Boston won in
1904, 1912, 1856 and 1918. De
troit carried off the honors in 1907-8-9.
The American league pennant has
never flown at the home fields of the
Yankees, Senators, Browns or Indians.

SAM CREWS IS DISAPPOINTED
Pitcher Who Hurled No-Hit Game
Likely to Remain in Southern
League Next Year.

Sam Crews, who pitched a no-hit
game for Birmingham against Bob
Coleman's Mobile team on May 2 last,
will very likely remain in the Southern
league for another season. His work
was uniformly excellent this season,
bur not good enough to induce his
purchase by major league club. Had
the draft system still been in vogue, it
is certain he would have been grabbed
by one or the other Of the big league
clubs. In his case. the adjustment Of
the system caused disappointment to
an ambitious young pitcher.

alumni association was making
plans to build a new concrete
stadium at Franklin field that
will seat $4,000 persons.
