The University of Pennsylvania
leads all colleges in the matter Of
intercollegiate records.

GIANTS OYERSURE
REASON FOR SLUMP
SAYS BILLY EVANS

What is the matter with the New

Can it be that McGraw's great

The Cincinnati Reds Of 1919 so
suffered in 1920 The Reds had so
deCisively defeated the great club
representing the Chicago White Sox
that some of the Reds undoubtedly
looked on the winning OF the 1920
pennant as mere formality Of play

Are They Too Sure?
