THE WORLD SERIES.

Beginning Wednesday Baseball will have the
right of way in the United States. On that day
will begin the World Baseball Championship
Series Casually, simply the World Series)-the
great annual classic of the baseball world. This
year the New York team of the American League
and the Pittsburgh team of the National League
will be the contestants.
The for the National League pennant
had been the star attention in the baseball sea
for many weeks 1t close with
Pittsburgh, st. Louis, New York and Chicago
running neck and neck until almost the last. II
was not until Saturday that the Pittsburgh
Pirates definitely eliminated the St. Louis Car
dinals Only day or two before that the New
York Giants disposed Of and 1t was less
than week ago that the Chicago Cubs GER
tainly out Of the
1t has been apparent for long time that
the New York Yankees would win the American
League pennant. for they have been fifteen or
more games ahead of the Philadelphia Athletics,
who were the runners-up for the last half of
the season. The chief interest in the American
League games has been the home-run be-
tween Babe Ruth and Louis Gehrig and, later
the of the former against his 1921 world
record for home The Yankees victory this
year is also notable for the fact that they estab-
lished a new high record in their league for the
percentage of games won.
The New York Americans have won the AM
erican League pennant five times in the last seven
years, placing them footing with the
Chicogo White Sox and Boston Red Sox in vic
tories. The Philadelphia Athletics with six vic
tories leads in the American league record. This
is the 2sth American League season.
Pttsburghs victory in the National League
is her sixth, just half as many as the New
York Giants have won in that league. The
National League has Just finished its SID season
There have been 23 World Series played since
the American sLeague and National League first
became rivals in 1903. OF these the American
League has won thirteen and the National League
has been victor ten times. The Nationals were
successful the last two times-St. Louis winning
from New York last year and Pittsburgh from
Washington in 1925.
Pittsburgh has won two out of the three
World Series that she has contested against the
American League. The New York Yankees have
translated only one of their four American
championships They beat the New York Giants
in 1928.
The games will start this year in Pittsburgh
where they will be played Wednesday and Thurs
day Then the teams will move to New York
for three games--unless the championship, which
goes to the team first winning four games, shall
have been decided with the fourth game. II the
contest requires than five games, all after
the fifth game will be played in Pittsburgh.
Unless rain or something else intervenes one
game will be played each day, beginning We'd

To Americanize Vatican Library.
New York Times. }


The reference is not TO religious creed or
practice but to library METHODS. The famous
Vatican library is to be thoroughly classified and
catalogued with the financial support of the
Carnegie Endowment for International Peace and
after an intensive study of American library
organization.
How badly the greatest of all Libraries, reck-
oning by manuscript treasures, stands in need OF
being brought into order is attested by the fact
that only the most general knowledge prevails
concerning its very size Estimates of the bound
volumes range from 100000 to 100000, and OF
the manuscripts from $4,000 to 10000. 1t Is
not impossible that in the process of overhauling
and classification riches may be discovered;
though it is not likely that anything will turn
up to compare with the fourth century Codez
Vaticanus of the Bible the two Vergils OF the
fourth and fifth centuries, or the fourth century
Republic of Cicero
Along with American cataloguing procedure
It may be that something of American ideas OF
accessibility will be borrowed In most OF the
great libraries of Europe the process of getting
hold of book would be regarded in this coun-
try as an ordeal European scholar who re-
ceiyed his volume half an hour after he filed his
application slip would be astonished to the point
almost of distrust There would be something
unauthentic about book or manuscript SO
easily got at.

New York WORLDLY

In itself the victory CT ex-Gov. Theodore G.
Bilbo of Mississippi in the Democratic Guebrna-
toral primaries of that State Is nothing to re-
joice over. Mr.. Bilbo brought into public
life by Gov. Vardaman For time he was the
vardaman chief of staff, and he represents in
Mississippi just those reactionary ay-hill tend
encies in politics which Jim" Ferguson repre-
scented in Texas Nomination is equivalent to
election, and his election will mean severe set
back for the advanced and intelligent Democracy
led in recent years by John Sharp Williams and
Senator Pat Harrison.
But the election has its heartening feature in
the rebuke it gives to a sngularly barefaced at
tempt to throw false issue of religion and Pro-
hibition into the campaign. The campaign bureau
of Mr.. Bilbo's opponent sent out circular
charging that Gov Smith had congratulated Bbo
on his lead in the preliminary primary and
that Bilbo and Gov. Smith were allies and ap-
pealing Masonic voters to defeat the ex-
Governor on this ground All reports agree that
resentment of this attempt to capitalize religious
prejudice made Mr.. Bilbo thousands Of votes.
lit accounts for much If not most of his ma
jorty 1t is too bad to have bigotry smitten
under the leadership of Bilbo, the Khan
smitten under the leadership OF Jim" Fer
guson, but it is well to have them smitten.

SENATOR WALSH CHANGES WITH
THE WEST.

Senator Thomas J. Walsh, Chairman OF the
Madison Square Democratic Convention and sup
porter there of the Presidential candidacy OF
Mr. McAdoo now says that Gov. Smith is the
outstanding candidate for the Democratic NOM
ination. and predicts his nomination. Apparently
he has changed with his State. Montana is for
Gov Smith, and leading Democrats of that State
few weeks ago said that If Senator Walsh
continued to oppose his nomination the Senator
would simply be left off Of the Democratic Ma
tional Convention delegation next year.
OF course it is not intimated that this
threat caused Senator Walsh to change his mind
No threat political otherwise. could force the
position OF Senator Walsh. He is one of the
big men OF the Nation. and 1t is easy to under
stand that Ne sees change in the situation.
Three years ago he thought Mr. McAdoo was
the most available OF the Democratic Presidential
asplrants. He believes that Gov. Smith now
occupies that position. That ia the situation

Arctic Possibilities.
fManchester Guardian. J

Dr. Rudmose- Browns warning to the British
Association that the white races are better fitted
TO colonize the colder regions than the hot
raises once more the possibility of civilized and
self-supporting emigrants to the semi-frozen
North. DR.. Browns view appears to be that in
the long run such a change is not only possible
but inevitable because the black races will stray
towards the warm lands and the white ones will
be driven northwards for new homes The first
phase of attitude towards the Arctic and
Antarctic--the phase Of adventure and sheer at
tempts ito reach the Pole"-is over; the next
depends rather upon the commercial possibilities
of those regions OF the Antarctic Dr. Brown
did not think very highly scene for the most
modest commercial enterprise, but, like Stefans-
son. he is prepared to predict very near future
for "a scattered population of reindeer and musk
OK farmers in the barren lands Of Arctic Canada,
the tundras of Siberia and even in Greenland
and Spitzbergen"
