Sentiment In Baseball?
That's a Big Laugh

There rs no sentiment in baseball
This fact was proved beyond
doubt at the recent major league
meeting in New York.

the Chicago White sox. is the Amer

prove such theory.
George Burns. former star out

Reds, is the National Leagues con-
tribution to the lack OF sentiment
that exists.

have been very appropriate had the
White Sox park been called the

dollars, Ed Walsh was his greatest
asset. The White Sox team for
about eight or nine years was built
around Ed Walsh.

PENNANT winner

PITTsBURGH. Dec. 2s.-CUnited
Press) Physicians were debating
here today whether It Is monkey
glands or dried monkey meat that
restores lost energy and grows hair
on a baldhead.
The discussion followed announce
ment by A. L. Bowden Pittsburgh oil
man. that ne would give Pittsburgh
a pennant winning baseball team and
a football eleven that would display
more agility than any trick movie

them on a diet OF dry monkey meat.

from a superior class OF monekys he
has observed In Ecuador, South

"The invigorating quality OF mon
key meat viii give indominatable
power and unlimited aggressiveness

said.
Bowden win leave for Ecuador in
a few days for a fresh supply OF
monkeys. and also to supervise con-
stfuction OF railroad FOR the
pioneering OF oil fields there.
In proof OF his assertions that a
dried monkey steak Is the best thing
in the world Bowden cited a couple
Of bad cases"
While In Ecuador Bowden said he
came across a former Pittsburgher
who had become old. bent. bald and
as ugly as a monkeys bats,

In Quito" Bowden said. Il tried
the experiment on a lawyer who had
been bald for 25 years and had lost

California VIII Find Worthy
Opponent in ". and J.

When W. and J began its attacks
against Detroit, the Presidents dis
covered that the Detroit eleven had
a defense for IL. Tackles and guards
were in front and the remainder Of
the eleven spread
It was an effective defense; W and
]. knew IL. SO. instead OF going to,
the open game, W. and J. smashed
the line. Detroit. afraid OF the for
ward pass attack. did not concen-
trate its defense and failed TO pull
up the secondaries.
While Detroit did succeed in
keeping W. and ]. from making
touchdowns by line smashing. the
consistent gains enabled W. and j.
TO keep the ball almost constantly
and team that cannot get possess
sion Of the ball cannot make touch-
downs.
Although not particularly a brill
liant line, the W. and J. line is smart.
It knows football. No team ever
blocked better and few tackled
harder than W. and J. Few lines
charge faster. The w. and J. line
has life and lines need life.
Michigan had one OF the best de-
fensive lines IN the country this
year, but a poor line extensively be-
cause the Michigan linemen lacked
lift that is, they did not lift the op-
posing linemen out Of the play as

exception at Michigan.

The field against New York is a
bad bet In the American League.
The latest deal put through with
tke Boston Red Sox just about in
sures the Yankees another ponnant
The addition OF the two Red Sox
pitching stars. Joe Bush and sam
Jones. is the big punch In the trans
action.
Everett Scott. who goes with the
two pitchers TO New York. is one of
the greatest shortstops In the his
tory OF the game. Scott Is a remark
able fielder. He IS not a hard hitter,
but is dangerous.
Despite the fact that Scott is a
wonderful ball player, his addition
to the Yankees does not carry any
great weight. II ! we're TO select a
shortstop FOR general sll-around
value In the American League. Il
would be a toss-up with me between
Peckinpaugh and Scott.
In acquiring Scott, tho Yankees
give up Peckinpaugh Il Is just
about a hfty-hfty proposition. Peck
inpaugh was a great favorite with
