NEW YORK, April 4.-rlred OF
seeing the New York Yanks run
ming away with the pennant, fan
gre looking forward to Il close race
in the American league this scasor.
With as many az seven clubs en-
tertaing pennant hopes in the nat
ional league, another thrilling race
is in prosnect in the senior circuit
From all indications the Yankee
hardly are prepared to stage their
customary early dash which has
caused interest to wanc IN the
American league the past two sea.
sons.
The Yankees have dominated their
league completely for the past two
years, occupying first place contin-
uously during both seasons except
for brief week in April, 1896, when
the Cleveland Indians assumed the
lead only to lose it right back to
the Hugmcn.
Last season the Yanks won the
pennant by 10 games, while in 1925
they finished three games in from
cf the Indians after making a run
away race of it until the final
month.
Another pcnnant may be in store
for the Yanks this season. but the
odds are against the New York club
taking the lead on the first dav Of
the season and holding il through to
September 80
The strength seems to be distri-
buted more evenly in the national
league than it was last season ana
the only club that can be counted
definitely out Of the race IS Ii,

ed to be a huge handicap to Taylor.

might have furnished a decisive re-
versal and put Bud out had it not
been for the latter's courage.
The bout was clean. Taylor show
ed his 'sportsmanship by helping
Gorilla up when he slipped and fell.
Gorilla retaliated by picking up
Taylor s bridge and handing it back
when it was knocked to the floor
in the middle Of "a round.
