PICKED TO
WIN NATIONAL RAG
ON ALLEGED INSIDE

NEW YORK, Aug. 9-Rather strange
movements have been made during the
last week among the boys who wear the
loud clothes and the big rocks.
While most of the fans are picking
New York or st. Louis to win the Ma
tional pennant, many of the big gamb-
lers are taking the short end that the
Pittsburgh Pirates will play one end
of the world series.
Five days ago tip sent out of Pitts
burgh into New York carried the in
formation that the Pirates would win
IL straight games, take the lead in the
race and cinch the pennant by the
middle of September.
The fact that the Pirates have al
eady won 10 straight makes the story
interesting, to say the least.
Some of the stories going around are
far fetched. One of them being passed
mt now is that the Pirates blew the
pennant last year so that the Giants
could get into the big money from an
ali New York series and that promise
was made to allow the Pirates to have
it this year.
In the last series with the Giants,
tHt.t loOhtu ike NOTiu DtdttTS anu tHt
class of the league and they still look
good. They have been within striking
distance of the lead all season and they
are still in position to step out and
win with a squirt.
The tipsters say that Pittsburgh can
cover up by blaming last years re-
verses on the management and by
pointing out that the club didn t begin
TO move smoothly this season until a
hew manager was on the job.

GREAT JOCKEY SAYS
BETTINC'S f0OLNH

PARIS, Aug. g. - Here some tips
ststraight from the feedbox from
the American jockey, Frank O'Neill,
premier rider of French race tracks,
and regarded as the greatest jockey
IN the world.
Saws o 'Neill:
Il think gambling on horses is a
game of fools.
Il never bet, and l never give tips
to friends.
'.The only certain thing about horse
racing is its uncertainty.
stThe merest trifle may transform
the certain winner of one moment into
the certain loser of the next.
'fNo jockey who knows the game
7cgards his race as won until the judge
Las hoisted the winning number.
O'Neill is the idol of the French
.acks and in IA years racing in Eur;
De has won 1900 races, prizes to the
9ners ranging from 2000 to 100000
erancs.
You can I find o 'Neill loafing about
he boulevards or race track or jazz
around Montmarte. He has a
ouse and garden in the suburb of
iaisons Lafitte, where he lives with
ois wife, his 15-year-old son and two
little daughters.
.I've been successful and I've made
money" says o 'Neill. ''But / don t
make anything like the huge sums dop
esters say / do. When I'm not riding
I'm at home playing with the kids. =

NEW YORK, Aug. 9.-Wadding up

veloped recently into the mere process
of engaging Harry Frazee in Il httle

bills.

York club has ready access to anything

that the Boston Red Sox possess in the
line of a valuable ball player.
The Yanks in the past three seasons
have turned over money and players
TO the value of ut least a half million
dollars to the Boston Club for Babe
Ruth, Carl Mays, Waite Hovt, Joe
Bush, Sam Jones, Exerett Scott, Wally
Schang, Joe Dugan and Elmer Smith.
The Yanks can t be blamed for
spending money for players when their
Investments brought them an American
League pennant. The curious part
comes in trying to find reason why
the Red Sox will sell only to the Yanks.
1t is generally understood that Col.
Jacob Rupert, part owner of the
Yanks, holds 100000 mortgage on
the Boston American League grounds.
No one, hoy!~ger, has accused Rupert
Of using it as club over Frazee, but
Freeze might think that he was bound
to give the Yanks first call on any
Of his PLAYERS that were resdy for the
market.
Imperial Valley press., 1922-08-09

The Yanks may not win the 1922
pennant and it would be good thing
for baseball if they didn't. st. Louis
has built up a fine club without spend
ing a fortune and the Browns will have
the support of all the American League
towns outside of New York.
