In addition to this, wen have
Herb Pennock, and in the games
we have played so far it looks like
that lefthander win help as 3 lot.
But more encouraging than any
thing else is the morale OF the
club. The boys are all pulling for
each other, and there's none OF
the friction that existed IN the last
two seasons.
We're lust q ball club with one
idea and that idea is to win the
pennant. and then beat the Giants.
But we expect trouble In our
own league. ny Cobb seems to
have strengthened his club. and
everybody thinks the Tigers win
cause us more trouble than the
Browns, with George Sisler IN
bad shape. Even with Sisler in
there playing every day I figure
that Cobb win get second place
II he doesn't beat MS out.
The White Sox ought to finish
no worse than fourth. and look
to Cleveland to finish fifth, with
maybe the Athletics crowding them
for the place. / hate to pick the
last place club, but have hunch
washington and the Red Sox will
settle that between them In an.
other year or two Boston's young
players win do much better than
they win this season.
OF course, I have no first hand
dope about the National League.
but from what saw of the Giants
in the world series and from what
I have heard about them since
figure they'll win again. though
the Pittsburgh Pirates should give
them battle.
st. Louis, with Rogers Horns
BY, always win be dangerous,
and If they get any good pitch
ing they ought to finish third or
fourth, but Chicago and Cincin-
natl win probably make them
hustle and maybe beat them out,
with the chances against the
Reds on account OF Jake DaubeFt
being out Of the lineup nc the
start OF tho season, and Eddie
R0uscaf either out Of the game
or hold0ut until the season
starts.
Boston, Brooklyn and Phiiadel-
phia VIII probably finish In the
last three places. We've seen q
lot of the Dodgers on the trip
North. but outside OF the pitching
box they are weak. Zach Wheat
is still a mighty good outfielder
and hitter. and Tommy Griffith
can sock that old apple. Jimmy
Johnston is as sweet an alI-around
player as you'll find. but he's play
ing short, which is an unnatural
position for him, and I figure that's
the tip off on the Dodgers. But
with three pitchers like Dutch
Ruether. Burleigh Grimes, and
Dazzle Vance there's no telling
what the Dodgers will do.
Philadelphia doesn't seem to
have any class to speak Of, and
Boston Is a question mark. How
ever. I'm roofing for Christy Matll-
ewson to have a good year to be-
gin his job as president Of the
Braves.
Anyhow, the best team will win
In each league no matter what any
Of US prophets say.

Fulton's defeats, while not as

as astonishing. When winning
Fulton looks like q champion, when
losing like q fifth rater. Some
fighters can lose gracefully. 50 that
their defeats are soon forgotten.
Fulton, in defeat, ID such an abjecf
figure that he stands out in the
memory. When one thinks of him
at all 1t ID his defeats that come TO
mind. His victories are forgotten.
In this respect Fulton ID In direct
contrast to some Of his victims.
Defeat never seemed to affect
Frank MOran's popularity and
drawing power. From beginning
to end his record Is studded with
defeats.
Unlike some popular veterans who
are worshiped for what they once
were. Moran never attained any
great heights. He never figured as
a real contender for the title, al
though twice he was built up
through clever press work so that
he obtained matches with champ
ions.
Moran was just a fighter without
a chance to get anywhere In partic-
ular. He never could box a lick and
he was only a one-handed hitter and
a crude one at that. But Moran had
the true fighters heart and the fans
forgave him all his faults because Of
his great courage. They would
rather see him In action after being
defeated than Fulton after victory.
Jim Flynn was another courage
GUS battler who was popular, al.
though often defeated. He. too,

not warrant.
