BOTH NEW YORKERS
 HAVE GOOD CHANCE
If They Win Again It Would Be
 Four in a Row
(By Billy EyanS)


 Two toams-the New York Giants chance to set a precedent in modern big league baseball play this season. Each have won thEse consecutive championships. 4 victory this year would make it four in a row. feat that no outfit in either league has accomplished since the inception or the two major circuits.
 The opportunity now facing the Giants and the Yankees is not unique, however. On at least three other oc- casions the same situation has cropped out.
 Back in 1910 Detroit had an excel lent chance of turning the trick. The Tigers had cropped the flag in l9b'- 0S-0s, another triumph .would have put over the unusual. But after getting away to d sensational start, the team faltered and the opportunity went glimmering.
 The year previous. or in 1909, the Chicago Cubs set out to win their fourth pennant in succession, But they couldn't add to their victories of 1s06-O7-0S.
 Then came the Giants with three straight titular years 1911-12-lS. In 1914, however, the Boston Braves, hy virtue Of q remarkable late season spurt erased whatever chances the McGraw boys may have had to set up a new record The Athletics in led the American league pack 10 the final wire. But they slip ped up in 1912, thus spelling chance to made what probably would have stood for all time.
 
 Whether or not the Giants and the Yankees can put something across which Detroit, the Cubs and the Giants of old failed to do, remains to be seen. They may And then again, they may not.
 Pitching wins ponnants. Figured from that angle, tho Yankees have a better chance to repeat than inc Giants. Unless some ot McGraw's minor league stars come through. the Giants may be hard pressed for pitch ing. The pitching statf of the Yankees looks good enough for at least two years more in high speed. The Giants on what they showed last season and in the world series must be strength ened. There arc many who look 10 the Cincinnati Reds 10 trip New York. However, the strategy Of Manager McGraw cannot be overlooked. Some how he seems able to gel results out of most any kind Of n pitching staT
 
 At any rate, each New York entry is face to face with an opportunity that doesn't very often arise in the na. tional pastime.

.BERLENBACH READY
 FOR REAL BATTLER
No More "Set Ups" for This New
 Knockout King

New York. March 5.-Paul Berlen- bach. who has hung up a record of twenty-three consecutive knockouts in his meteoric rise through middle weight and light heavyweight fistic ranks now is ready to meet all com CTS in these divisions. Dan Hickey, manager and ring mentor of the sen- sational youngster, announced today. As d result of Hickeys sweeping challenge. efforts were begun to match Berlenbach with a first class opponent at Madison Square Garden. Hickey has agreed to a fight on May or and his antagonist probably will be drawn from quintet of the middle weight topuotchers. including Harry Greb. the 160-pound titleholder; JohT- ny Wilson, a former champion; Jim my Delaney, Bridgeport, Conn; Jack Malone of St. Paul; and Roland Todd, English holder of the European mid dleweight crown.
 No More "Setups" Hickey, who has been selecting Berlenbach's opponents with unusual precaution within the past few monts of his professional career. de- clarcd his charge would meet no more "sctups."
 "I am satisfied Paul is ready for a real test" Hickey asserted, and I am now ready to match him with all corners, champions and contenders alike"
 Bcrlenbach has bowled over ten professional rivals in | row, none lasting moro than six rounds with him.
 AS result of the case of these triunphs. Hickey had been criticised for not subjecting his fighter to stiffcr tests and his action today is viewed as an accession to popular demand.
