Witt Mack Cast-off Has
Edge on Series Cente11eldery

Being the lead or man with the
main duty OF getting on base, Witt
perhaps is just as valuable to the
Yankee offense as Stengel is to the
Giants because he usually gets on.
He is a better base runner than
Stengel also.
Baby Doll' Jacobson. the Brown
center fielder, slipped a little bit
this year. He batted In streaks and
he was benched several times during
the season in the hope that a rest
would bring back his eye. The "Dolr
is slower than Stengel or Witt on
the bases and in the field.
Bill Cunningham. utility man of
the Giants. is a fine young ball
player and he may get :nto the SER
les although he usually works only
against left handlers. The Yanks are
shy of south paws, however. and
unless Stengel gets into a slump he
may not been seen unless he works
as a pinch hitter.
Cunningham is much faster thar
Stengel. Witt or jacobson and is a
first class ball player. He no doubt
would be the regular Giant outfield-
err If McGraw did not work on the
policy that it takes a year or more
on the bench to teach a young
player his system. Both Stengel and
Witt are good money players but
"Old Casey" is such a colorful player
that he may turn out to be the hero
of the series. Day in and day out
however. Witt perhaps is the better
player with Jacobson third.

BY HENRY Il. FARRELL

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent. }
NEW YORK, Sept. 21-Both New
York ball clubs made a blind grab
in the bag this year and pulled out
a center fielder.
John McGraw had 10 have some
one to take the place OF George
Burns and when his expensive rookie
Ralph SINNERS, went wrong he had
to call on Casey Stengel who had
simply been the Jester of the club.
The outfielder of the Yankees has
been notably punk for several years.
Last winter the club owners tried
to buy every center fielder in the
league with the exception of Cobb
and Speaker and they failed Fin
ally Connie Mack offered Whitley
Witt for the waiver price and the
Yanks grabbed him.
Both Stengel and Witt filled the
hole on the two clubs. Both have
played good ball all season and
their work in the early part of the
race did much to keep their clubs
up in the fight.
Witt can get around faster than
Stengel, but he is not as danger
Gus with the stick as the Giant
center fielder. Stengel can break
ball game any time with a long
clout while Wits greatest prof.
cheney is bunting. The Yankee CEN
ter fielder, however. Is not a mark
for any pitcher. He is game to the
heart as he showed during the re-
cent uprising in st. Louis.

BE ELECTRIFIED

The Pennsylvania Railroad Com.
pany is planning to demolish 1t.
present office building at Broad
Street, Philadelphia, and build a new
structure on the west side of Fiji
teenth street. The terminal, temper
arily at least, will be a block or so
west of the present station. It is
understood no move will be made
until after the Sesqui- Centennial.
TIL, change is in line with the desire
of Parkway engineers to open the
Parkway to, its full width at City
Hall Plaza.
Effort also will be made to have
all branch lines on the Pennsylvania
main divisions electrified before 1926.
This would mean that few trains
with steam locomotives would run
into Broad street station.
Lines which the company contem-
plates electrifying are Philadelphia.
