BY pAYID j. WALSH.

NEW YORK. April According to
che good word passed along ly a man Of
ihdubitable authority. the New York
Yankees are now playing the worst base
ball OF any major league bah club in
the South, those two Philadelphia public
charges not barred AS champions they
figure to repeat this season, but as a
group OF debOnair chumps. they Will run
worse then second as surely as carbouc
acid is unpalatable.
II is to be hoped. for the sake Of Mil
Ter Higgins, that their attitude is merely
an attitude, and hence only temporary.
For the most part II Is neither necessary
nor expedisnt for ball club to play
at top speed IN Southern exhibitions.
