Form has not been scrambled so
badly in the National League. The
champion Pittsburgh Pirates, of
course, haye no business In sixth
place, but the st. Louis Cardinals,
the New York Giants and the Gin
cinnati Reds are in the first division.
Most anything can happen in the
chilly weeks of the early season, and
there used to be tendency among
managers and players to give slight
consequence to starting games, but
a game counts just as much now
as in late September.
Early Games Important
Early season games are becoming
increasingly important as the COM
petition becomes stronger" John Nc
Graw, manager of the Giants, said.
"The team that gets the big
jump this year before mld-season is
the team that will win the pennant. t."
McGraw said he had observed par.
ticularly this season that the play
ers on clubs standing for slice Of
world series money were bearing
down as hard as they could.
st. Louis Cardinals and Chicago
White Sox played the best ball of
the opening week and are holding
first place In the major leagues. The
Cardinals aided by Bottomley's ter
rife hitting. won five out of six
games, and the White Sox, hustling
for Eddie Collins, lost only one
game out Of five. The Sox pitching
has been high class.
Giants Winning
The Giants won four out of their
five games. the Philhes four out of
six and the Reds three out of five.
The Pirates lost four Of their six
games.
The Washington Senators are
holding third place in the Ame1-
can League, with four games won
and two lost. This record is more
impressive than the mere figures
show, as the Senators have played
all their games against their strong
est rivals, the Philadelphia Athletics
and the New York Yankees.
The Athletics won only one of
their five games and the disap-
pointing Browns have failed to win a
game in five starts.
Detroit looked good in winning
has been successful in strengthening
the defense Of the team the Tigers
are sure to be in the fight.

out that way. Now somebody has

Officials Indignantly deny the &C
cusation.
1t is always funny when the
shoe Is ON the other foot. If you
remember, it was the Drake ath-
letic director, who started all the
rumpus about Nurni wanting q
lot Of dough to appear in the re-

Now. somebody else, disgruntled
about this or that, spreads a story
about Drake giving IIoff some
$500 to appear in the carnival.
There is probably no truth in 1t,

He, no doubt, has been coached
on that feature. He, doubtless,
has tried hard to correct the weak

just can't handle his legs.

1t appears as though the south

he Is In for good year.

time in Burwell's long baseball
career that he was ruled out of a
game.
Richbourg, first Brewer at bat,
was walked by Umpire Connolly
after 1t seemed Burwell had struck
him out. Shuttle grounded to Yo-
ter, who threw to Sticking at Sec
ond. The throw was wide, but
Sticking SHARED it and touched Rich
bourg on the line, and touched him
so hard the runner ran out Of line.
Burwen Banished
Believing himself out, Richbourg
started walking away. but hustled
back to the base. Umpire Goetz
had called him safe. There was a
long argument and Burweu was
banished.
Weaver warmed up hurriedly, but
entered the game cold and lacked
control. He pitched poorly and
probably is another Indian who
wont remain long. He walked three
men in the second inning and then
Shuttle singled with the bases filed.
Phil Morrison relieved Weaver and
finished the contest in good style.
Morrison had good stuff, much
more than Weaver. But he, too,
lost control frequently. He is wor-
thy OF a thorough trial, however,
and may land a regular berth If he
improves his pitching when runners
are on. The one marker scored off
him Sunday started with a gift walk
by Umpire Connolly. A stolen base
followed and developed into the win
ming run.

20 ANAGER FLETCHER Of
mi the Phillies said mouth
ky full the other day when he
remarked that there was too much
Misunderstanding among the big league
players. Sport fans do not go
out to see exhibitions in any line
of athletics. Spectators want to
see battles.
They want the contestants TO
CARE whether they win or lose.
A fine display Of skill and uncanny
ability in handling a baseball lose
their charm if the spirit is not
there.
The bugs idolize the players who
try hard and want to WIN. OF
course, none of the players wants
to lose. 1t means bread and but
ter to them to make a good show
ing.
But it must be more than
bread and butter. When baseball
becomes a business proposition
entirely to players as well as
owners the turnstiles viii not
click in the endless song so
pleasing to the magnates'
hearts.
There must be something out
on the field except pretty motions.
There must be fire and en-
thusiasm. Mechanical perfection
Is not enough.
All players do not have the
battling temperament. There are
not enough Of the Fletcher type
in present day baseball. But, at
least, they do not need to make it
so plain that 1t Is all In a days
work.
Let's have more real honest
tO-gOodness competition--not so
much hand shaking and a little
more fist shaking.

SMOOT DEALS TAX
REDUCTION BLOW
Favors Application of Surplus
to Public Debt, He Says,
in Senate.

Tax reduction, which already mas
been frowned on by House Repup-
iican leaders, was further removed
from consideration this session OF
Congress by Chairman Smoot OF the
Senate finance committee yesterday
Senator Smoot expressed his views OH
the question after Senate Democrats
had demanded action at this session
on legislation to return the surplus
to taxpayers.
The Democrats led by Senator Har-
r.son of Mississippi, told the Senate
a $500, 900 900 surplus was In sieht for
this fiscal year and volunteered not
to stand In the way of a Republican
bill.
Senator Smoot replied that he not
only favored application of the sur
plus to retirement of the public debt.
but doubted the wisdom of the pro-
posal of President Coolidge for Il re-
fund on next years income tax pay
ments.
1T would mean saving of only
35 cents to the small taxpayer he
said, "and would benefit only the
large corporations and taxpayers with
large incomes"
Senator Harrison, insisting the
american people want tax reduc-
tion," called upon Congress to carry
out the expressed wish OF President
Coolidge for an non-partisan tax credit
plan or some tax relief"
Senator Swanson, Democrat, Vir-
ginia, charged that Republicans were
using tax reduction for political cam
paigns and were saving huge tax
cut for the eve of the 1923 election.
