Yankees Sure
To Repeat, Says
Star TWirler
BY NEA Service

10y StTNiCS
Philadelphia, March 6.-Joe Bush.
star pitcher of the New York Amer
cans. who has wintered in this city,
is positive the Yankees are on their
way to the fourth pennant.
Don't see how any club in the
American League has a chance to
beat u.s." replied Bush, when asked
for his opinion on the outcome of the
race.
THE Yankees are a stronger club
than last year, while none Of the CON
tenders have materially strength
cned their club.
"Cleveland gets a good first base
man in George Burns from Boston
hut loses two mighty good men in
Catcher Steve O'Neill and Second
Baseman Bill Wambsganss.
Tho Cleveland pitchers are going
to miss Steve O'Neill. He's still a
great catcher even if he has slipped Il
bit Of late years. 1t means great
deal to a pitching staff to have a
fellow like O'Neill to work with.
i'tiioit HIS d team with mucn
power, but | can't figure where the
club is going to get enough con-
sistently good pitching to beat us
out
1.-Two clubs certain to be much
stronger and may prove trouble
makers, are Boston and Philadelphia.
Connie Mack has added considerable
batting punch and Lee Foil will turn
out club at Boston that isn't go
ing TO finish in last place
True, Bob Shawkey and myself
are not going to be any better but
If we pitchers turn in just fair
work, the club will carry us along
to victory"

Billy Evans Says

Horse lovers the country over re-
jo:cc in the death of the anti-pari-
mutuel bill in the Kentucky Legs
laturc which carries with it the as
surance that thoroughbred racing in
the Bluegrass State will continue in
definitely. The bill had passed the
House by Il comfortable majority but
was killed in the Senate. 1t is under
stood that the bill did not have the
governors sympathy in the begin
ming.
Kentucky without. racing would
seem as strange as, we'll, as strange
as the denatured mint juleps must
seem to the Colonies in these days.
The sport of the thoroughbred
would have a hard time recovering
from the blow if it were legislated
out of Kentucky, where it is rich
in tradition and replete with glory
Ne 'other turf event in American
history comes quite so close to the
public as the running of the his
toric Derby. 1t is the world series
OF turfdom, and excites just about as
much interest and attention. Celcbri-
ties come from all parts of the coun-
try to view the classic and annually
are. turned away.
One OF the fine things to be said
Of the Derby is that the finger Of
suspicion has never been pointed in
its direction.

Fur Will Fly
When Red SOx
Meet st. Louis
BY NEA Service

Boston, March 6.-Thcre will be no
love lost this summer when the Bos-
ton Red SoX meet the st. Louis
Browns. Every Series between these
two clubs should be tobasco affair.
Lee Foil, former manager of the
Browns, will lead the Red Sox this
season. No doubt Fohl will get more
pleasure out Of beating his former
club than any. other aggregation in
the league.
The Red Sox players will soon get
the angle of their manager and nat
ulahy will 70 the limit to triumph
over the Browns.
Last season when Dave Danforth
was pat out Of game at Philadel-
phia because Umpire Moriarity was
satisfied that he doctored the ball,
Manager Foil refused to champion
the cause of Danforth. This caused
u number OF players TO turn against
Fohi.
With MS reputation, for honesty at
stake, Fohl, having the courage Of
his convictions, refused to take up
sides with Danforth Tn. Inference,
Of course, is that Foil believed him
at fault.
Expect the fur to fly when the Red
SoX clash with the Browns.
