JOURNAL is RIGHT

One day last week the Hamilton
Evening Journal headed it's editorial
column with "The hard coal miners
have asked that. their strike be ended
and are willing to return to work at
the former wage scale" The question
is, how does the Journal get that
way? How does it know that the
miners are willing to go back to their
jobs at the old wage scale? No one
else has heard of it. OF course the
Journal may have inside information
that no one else has heard Of We
don't question the Journal on that
point. But the Journal goes farther
and says: Zone wonders if the min
ers' strike was the result of faulty
leadership" Herein we know the
Journal is right. Just zone" so Won
ders, or wanders. He is the Journal
editor All the other millions of
Americans, that is those capable of
wondering, know different.

The women's national golf cham

minus three more strong contend rs
foE- the title.
On the soggy course Of the Merton

match play brought the defeat of
Miss Helen Payson, Maine cham
pion; of Miss Bernice Wall, Wiscon-
sin State champion, and Mrs. ]. S.
Cassriel of Chicago, who defeated
Mrs. Dorothy Hurd the day before.
Four Matches Today
The title matches today had sim
mered down to four. AS a result,
prospects were for the real battle on
the links here to take place Friday
when Miss Glenna Collett, defending
champion, will meet Miss Edith
Cummings-provided both win to-
days matches.
They have twice met in the next
to-the-last round, and in each case
Miss Collett has triumphed.
With comparative ease, the Provi-

Norman Rood, up and to play.
She also played the best golf of the
day.

The real clash Of the second round
of match play was between Mrs.

another ball on the eleventh when
her first went into a puddle. But
her score for the hole was s, so
she went back and tried her first

NEW YORK, Sept. SO.-"The
most nervous ball club that ever
entered a world series" one might
say Of the St. Louis Cardinals after
watching them in action around the
lobby of their hotel here.
What the Cards will be when they
take the diamond against the New
York Yankees Saturday remains to
be seen, but during the interim they
appear a highlystrung, sensitive
group.
Illustrative of the manner in
which the Cards are passing the
time during the days preceding the
series is the account Of the behavior
Of Bill Sherdel, Flint Rhem and Vic
Keen, three of the pitchers, for an
hour preceding yesterdays batting
practice. First they sat in the lobby

then they left the hotel and walked
a block or two and returned to sit
down once more and talk. The con-
versation was mostly about the
series. At last came the order to
the ball park. and relief was evident
in each face.
The club is more or less a unit

cliques such as have demoralized

Baseball fans of Madison, Ind,

reason is. that battling againTt the

Tommy is the star shortstop Of

they do the most good.

It Is Babes Year?

Despite lame ankle, on which he
is hobbling, there are many who
think that in this season of startling
form reversals the Babe will emerge
does the unexpected, and this year
he may justify all the fine things
that have been said Of his season.
play.
The Yankee outfield has one dis
tinct advantage in throwing. There
is no arm in baseball to compare
with Bob Meusels for distance and
speed and few can compare with the
Babes for accuracy.
By reason of his arm. his terrific
hitting, and his courage, Meusel has
the edge over Blades and Hafey,
who lack his class and his expert
ence. There is one thing, however,
that can't be figured. Meusel doesnt
always feel III the mood. If he gets
popped up, he may be the star of
the series. If he feels lazy he may
be the big boob.
Edge to DOuthit
In center field. Combs, one of the
fastest fielders in baseball and q
speedy base runner, has only that
on Douthit. Combs is VIGOROUSLY
weak as a thrower and he is not as
dangerous at the bat as Douthit and
he may be outplayed in the series.
Because the Babe Is the Babe,
right field has to be given to tire
Yankees. Billy Southworth PLAYED
some wonderful baseball after John
McGraw sent him from the Giants to
the Cards, but he hasn't the arm Of
the Babe or the hitting of the Babe
and he can't field any better.
There comes that question again
however, how will Babe play in the
series? And. how will his legs hold
up?
Considering all angles, the Yankees
seem to have a slight advantage be-
cause of the hitting and throwing
of the Babe and Bob Meusel.

NEW YORK, Sept. 30.-Since the

been duly appreciated.
The muff made by Snodgrass

it goes to prove that, like Peck's

deadliest fly chasers and most accu-

There isn't a great difference be-

and American League champions.
