WHITE COMPARES STRENGTH
OF PIRATES AND YANKEES

from the Philadelphia Athletics in
1914. The last years New York
team should not have lost to the St.
Louis Cardinals But the series
mentioned are exceptions and the
stronger club usually triumphs in the
abbreviated series that decides the
world championship.
On the basis of the seasons s rec
ords the Yanks are at least z to
) choice to win baseball s highest
honors.
The Pirates excel in fielding aver
ages and in total number Of hits,
but in every other department of the
game the Yanks have the edge.
Yankees Long Hitters
The Yankees lead in doubles,
triples and home runs, in pitching
records, in runs scored and in stolen
bases.
Pittsburgh has more 800 hitters
than the Yanks but the local club,
not even excepting Paul Waner, has
no sluggers comparable to Babe
Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Tony Lazzeri and
Earl Combs.
The Pirates hit singles; the Yanks
hit for extra bases. And since the
Bronx lads lead Barney Dreyfuss
employees by two percentage points
in unofficial batting averages, the
answer must be that the Ianks are
superior in hitting strength.
As to defense. the Pirates are
three points better in fielding
Their catchers are better throwers.
But pitchers, after all are the bull
wark Of defense and this correspond
cnt cannot see how the Pirate hurl-
crs can excel those of the Ianks.
In Waite Hoyt, Urban Shocker,
Wiley Moore, Herb Pennock, Dutch
Reuthcr and George Pipgras, the
Yanks have tosscrs who have allow
ed their American League oppon-
cnts less than four runs per game.
The Pirate pitchers, Ray kremer,
Lee Meadows, Carmen Hill, John
Milius, Vic Aldridge, and Ralph
Dawson, have permitted closely to
40 runs per games.

The United States trailed France today
in their Franco American team
matches, William T. Tilden and Fran
ces T. Hunter losing this afternoons
doubles match to Jean Borotra and
Jacques Brugnon, of France, which
now leads in the final game series, two

staged in France, and it was only after
q brilliant struggle that the French
men captured the match, As, GO,

Although the match was won by
Frances representatives, the victory
failed to cause as much excitement as
it would have normally because the
hearts of the 5000 spectators were all
aflutter with excitement of the news

Lindbergh Just previous to the entry
of the players on the courts, reports
spread that the lone American aviator
had been sighted off the coast of Ire
land.
BY today's play, tennis experts de-
clared, France uncovered a doubles
pair which will be heard from in the
Davis cup matches. Tilden and
Borotra played masterful tennis, with
Brugnow not far behind them. Hun
ter stood the ordeal well for IL games,
but weakened under the combined
attack of the Frenchmen during the
second and third sets.
