The guess OF the Athletics for the
American League championship is no
great surprise, but two weeks ago
any ball player picking the Reds for
the National League pennant would
have been viewed suspiciously.
In the last two weeks. however.
the Reds have made such a squirt
and the Pirates and the Giants have
slumped so much that competent
critics have been looking at the
Cincinnati CLUB as a dark horse pos
sibility.
The Tiger players admit they have
not seen much of the National
League teams this year, but they ia
vor the Reds on account of the fine
pitching staff and the general breaks
The Pirates and the Giants, they
poiAt out, have been battling each
other all season and they are worn
ragged by pace that they started
too early.
The Tigers favor the Athletics
against the champion Senators, be-
cause of their youth and hustle.

nr-7S Eat SO?," the comedy
of the prize fighters now
running in Chicago and
New York. no longer can monopo-
lie this field. A three cornered
farce, one Of those triangle affairs,
is being put on these days in Los
Angeles, Chicago and New YORK.
The leading characters are Jack
Dempsey in the far west, Kearns
and Fitzsimmons in the middle
west, and Tex Richard in the East.
The latest comedy hasn't much
of plot unless it is the old idea
about the public liking to he
fooled. 1t is a rather long drawn
out performance with too much
dialogue and not enough action.
One is tempted at times to laugh
at the performers and not with
them.
The laughs come from the ri
diculous contradictions in the
statements of the actors.
For instance, Mr.. Dempsey ap-
pears to say II will fight Greb
in Michigan City for Mr.. Fitzsim-
mons" The curtain goes down
to designate the lapse of one min
ute.
Mr.. Dempsey Says
Again Mr.. Dempsey is found
talking to himself and various
press associations something like
this: "I will fight Withstand only
NSNls. 1 have agreed to fight for
Fftzsimmons of Indiana"
Again the curtain falls to des-
ignate the passing of thirty sec
Onds. And there's Mr.. Dempsey
again, new nose and new line.
This time it is, "Tex I.ickard of
New York very likely will stage
my bout with Harr, Wills and
Kearms hasn't anything TO do
with III. New York seems the
logical spot"
In the next act we find Mr..
Kearns upon the stage in Chicago,
Just in from Los Angeles. The
odor of perfume is waited over
the foothghts. Even before the
curtain goes up one can hear
Mr.. Kearns' loud suit.
Mr.. Kearns Says
A newspaper man asks about
the proposed Greb fight in Mich
igan City. The answer: ANY
body is silly if they think Jack
will fight Harry. He's through
with those $500 transforming
guys. Dempsey and 1 never had
any argument over boxing mat
tiers. I'll clear this thing up when
l get to New York"
The curtain falls with the pub
lie in bewilderment, wondering
whether the play is a mystery
drama or. a comedy.
In the next act Tex Richard
is to be noticed seated in his
New York office. Boxing gloves
are scattered around and num-
Der of money bags are on the
table. The wall paper is 500
bills,
II have. reached an agreement
With Dempsey and Wills" says
Tex. Dempsey is doing his own
business in the future. In big
match everyone wants to get in
on a little publicity. The Greb
match is a big joke. Just wait
and see who stages this Dempsey
Wills bout Curtain.
