The Yankees are a mighty power
full team but in a few respects
they're different from both the Red
Sox when Speaker, Lewis and
Hooper were the outfield and the
old Cubs that Chance managed.
Not many teams have won more
than a hundred games during the
season but the Cubs were one of
them, They had q wonderful in
field, one great pitcher in Brown
and a good ovtfield. They were
what you'd call a smart team.
The Red Sox, on the other hand,
had one of the greatest Outfields
that ever was, . couple OF great
infielders and q wonderful staff.
George Foster, Ernie Shore, Dutch
Leonard, Carl Mays were at their
best then. think our team then
was the greatest defensive outfit
Of all time.
understand John McGraw con.
siders the Giants when Merkle.
Doyle, Fletcher and Herzog were In
the infield one of his best teams.
up to the Red Sox or the old Cubs.
The team he has now. outside OF
pitchers, 1 think, is just about az
good.
I have a notion that the Yanks
are going TO do something this
year that the 80,
old Cubs did. I mean that we'll
come mighty close to winning
hundred games. The way we've
been going lately it looks like
cinch.
Like the Red Sox 1 played on,
the Yanks have a wonderful pitch
ing staff. There isn't one in the
big leagues to compare with Joe
Bush. Sam Jones. Waite Hoyt, Bob
Shawkey, Herb Pennock and Carl
Mays.
we are so far in front that I
don't think We'll have much trouble
winning the pennant and the world
series this season. 1 hope we get
another crack at the Giants. We're
not the same team we were last
fall and the season before. Joe
Duean. one of the greatest third
basemen l ever saw, and Pennock
have been with US from the start
and added a lot Of strength. SO
has Elmer Smith, who has done
some sweet hitting in the pinches.
But aside from this we're all
pulling together better than we
did last year and are roofing for
another crack at the Giants.
Cleveland, the Athletics and the
other teams are pretty far be-
hind us and just now we're more
interested in how the Giants will
do.
From what I hear Cincinnati ana
Pittsburgh will make it tough for
them before the season ends.
The Giants pitching staff doesn't
seem to be everything 1t should, but
McGraw has my best wishes, and if
he doesn't think we're all pulling for
him he should see how we all try
to find out every afternoon how the
Giants made out, whether they won
or lost and how many games they're
ahead of the Reds and Pirates.
i don't mean to wish either the
Reds or Pirates any tough luck, but
the Yanks are naturally pulling for
the Giants because we want to get
even with them for the pasting they
gave US in the last two world series.
We want the opportunity Of proving
that the Yanks really are a cham
pion team.

 Play Starting Thursday

The impending visit to Hartford of John Barrymore who beginning the coming Thursday night will play four performances of Hamlet, including one on the afternoon of Saturday at
 Parsons theater, Hartford, can truly be chronicled as an event of eNcep- tional importance. Although MT.
 Barrymore has been q prominent figure on the American stage for some time. he has not for a con siderable number Of years played out side of New York, Chicago and Bos- ton. Since going under the manage ment. of Arthur Hopkins. his stage ap- pearances have been confined wholly to the theaters of New York city.
 It has been under the skilled and experienced guidance of MT. Hopkins that Mr. Barrymore has developed his gifts for acting to the fullest de- gree. Commencing with "Redemp- tion''. and continuing through The Jest and Richard lII' to Hamlet, this star has won a group Of notable triumphs, with his most recent por- trayal serving to establish him among the great Of our time.

ASKS FARMERS TO
BE THEIR OWN AIDS
Governor of Oklahoma Asks Farmer
Labor Council to Work Out
its Own System.
(By Associated Press Leased Wire)

Oklahoma City, Okla. = Farmers
and laborers of Oklahoma were invited
by Governor J. c. Walton today to
take into their own hands through
the formation of definitely consti-
tuted council the direction of a pro-
gram designed to relieve them of eco
nomic burdens which he said beset
them.
Speaking at the opening session of
the farmer-labor conference, which he
called, the governor told the repre-
sentatives of eleven farm and labor
organizations that if partisan politics
are eliminated and a definite organ
ization affected they would constitute
"the most powerful body in the
state"
Referring to what he characterized
as "the lumber trust" the governor
called attention to his proposal to the
ninth legislature for the erection of
state owned cement plant, and prom
ised the conference that if the farm
ers and laborers of the state institute
petition to create such a plant, he
would call special election at which
no other matter would be referred. The
cement plant was disapproved by the
legislature.
The governor asked the conference
to understand that he did not call
them here to place himself at the head
of their affairs, "the responsibility is
entirely yours" ne told them.

KILL SUGAR BOYCOTT
WITHOUT RECORD VOTE
Assembly Gives Over Hottest Day of
Session to Consideration of
Minor Resolutions.
tBy Associated Press Leased wire)

(By Associated Press Leased Wire)
Maids on-The Eber joint resolution
calling upon the people of Wisconsin
to restrict their use of sugar as a
means of forcing down alleged exor-
bitant prices, was killed by the assem-
bly, today without a record vote. The
judiciary committee had uncondition-
ally recommended the resolution for
definite postponement.
The assembly also killed two educa-
ton bills, one by Millar prescribing
requirements for the administration of
county school affairs, and the other by
the education committee relating to the
adoption, prices and manner Of supply
of school text books. The Millar bill
would have applied only to counties
having less than 100000 population. 1t
would have placed the control of coun-
ty schools affairs in the hands of a
board of five members, headed by the
county superintendent. The bill was
opposed on the grounds that it would
be an infringement on local govern
ment.
