NO one can say, IN the event
that the Yankees win again, that
some other club won their honors
for them. The Yankees will have
won by defeating the only other
cub in the league that ever had a
chance for the pennant and beating
them by a wide and decisive margin.
Various other clubs, the Detroit
Tigers and the Boston Red SOX, for
example, gave us a lot of trouble
from time to time. but we always
could handle the Browns and they
were the club we had to flatten 20
win.
Now We are edging along toward
another worlds series and will
be surprised as well as disappointed
II we do not reverse the result of
last years meeting with he Giants.
L will not enter into details
here but am willing to go on
record now as predicting that IL
the series Is an all.New York af-
fair, the Yankees will win the
necessary four games without
having to play the entire seven
for which the rules Of the series
provide.
look for Bob Shawkey and Bullet
Joe Bush to carry the bulk of the
Yankees pitching burden and am
counting on each of them to win two
games. Pitching is Just about 80
per cent of a series of this descrip-
ton, and as nearly as I can gather
from the dope, the Giants have only
one reliable pitcher on their staff
A Nn, to, In
If not entirely on this account that
betting men are making the Yankees
their faVorites.
Just at present, Shawkey has u
bad wrist. He was hit with a pitched
ball in the fifth inning of the second
game Of our series at Detroit and his
wounded wing became so badly swol-
len that he was forced to quit after
the second half of the eighth. His
wrist has been heavily bandaged ever
since.
or course, we expect him to re-
cover from this superficial injury
long before the world series time,
but pitchers arms are deliCately
adjusted, and I viii not feel alto
gether comfortable again until the

From all i can gather the st.
Louis fans have quit cold on the
Browns. as though it was their own
fault that they lost the little worlds
series" TO us. St. Louis fans always
have been hot and cold'-extrava.
gantly elated in success and unduly
depressed in defeat-and the Browns
apparent failure after leading the
league into September for the first
time since 1855 seems to be taken
there as direct affront to the
fans.
The Browns don't deserve such
treatment. They have given us a
tough fight all season and went
down fighting. Both of our recent
victories at st. Louis were won hy
the narrowest of margins where
single break in the luck might have
reversed the result.
I don't believe the Browns will be
nearly 80 formidable next year as
they have been this season but that
Is neither here nor there. They
gave the best they had in them
this year and angels can do no
more.

TIME EXTENSION GRANTED
 FOR A. E. C. COAL MINING

Indicating the possible re-entry of the Alaskan Engineering Commission into the coal mining industry, presi- dential proclamation signed recently by President Harding has been receiv- ed at the office of Gov. Bone, says a recent issue of the Juneau Empire. The proclamation extends the author ity of the commission to continue coal mining for two years.
 The order of the president says the supply of coal is inadequate and in sufficient for all purposes especially in the Alaska railroad district. The orig inal authority of the A. E. c. was giv- en it by presidential proclamation in 1919, and covered a period of three years which will expire next month. The new proclamation extends the pro visions of the original order to Nov ember 22, 1924
 Coal mining operations were discon- tinued by the commission several months ago.
