Because of the fight they made
last season when they seemed to
have the pennant won, only to lose
1t In the last few weeks OF the race,
the. Pirates were generally picked
to be formidable contenders through.
out the present pennant pursuit.
They got away to bad start. how.
ever. wobbled feebly through the
first three months Of the season,
and then suddenly found themselves
in the longest winning streak Of
the season.
1t is possible, of course, that
they would have made their splurge
in any event, but it. is worthy of
more than passing note that their
real Improvement seemed to date
from the acquisition of Outfielder
Reb Russell, one-time pitching star
with the Chicago White Sox.

Now consider the Yankees. Up to
less than a month ago we We're the
most consistently club in either
major league. We were a club of
tremendous potential strength but
weren't realizing on our possibilities
and didn't seem to be getting any
where. Then we acquired Jumping
Joe Dugan and became another ball
club almost overnight.
With Dugan playing third base
in mastery fashion and hitting like
a fiend, the Ruppert-H Huston forces
began to play the ball OF which We
were capable and almost for the first
time all season really looked like
champions.
We couldn't have picked a more
opportune time to put On a sprint.
with st. Louis playing almost un-
beatable ball against such second
division opponents as the Red Sox,
the Athletics and the Senators, the
Yankees had to shove along or be
distanced. The fact that we were
only one full game away from the
lead when this was written Is proof
enough that we did our stuff"
Whether Pittsburgh can over

be a debat able question. They stiil

BIG WELL DRILLED
IN GILMER COUNTY

PARKERSBURG, June 24.-The
estimated initial production OF the
South Pennsylvania Oil GO. test on
tha Coy Heirs farm in Troy Dis
trict. Gilmer County, West Virginia,
is from 500 to 700 barrels per day.
According to reports received here,
the well has caught fire and was
still burning this morning. Ac-
cording to the reports, it is the
largest well that has been complet-
ed in West Virginia oil fields for
number of years. :,
The first reports on this well
were received here this morning
and came from source which IS
considered unusually reliable and
conservative in estimating the in
itial production of new wells. The
location is in territory that has
been drilled to some extent but
which has never before produced
any wells of more than average
size.
