lies he was often used in the annual
Spring series against us.
I have every respect for the Cubs.
They made a great finish.
They came down the home stretch viz
tually tied and then they commenced
to get out in front and the lead length
ened day by day until they won the
pennant with the greatest ease.
Meeting q strong team in q world
series Is different from tackling one OF
your powerful adversaries in your own
league. You know your own clubs, but
you are somewhat in the dark about
the team in another loop.
There Is no doubt that both the Atil-
letics and Cubs have assigned scouts to
watch the style Of play Of their oppo.
nents and the manners of individual
players.
Thinks Scouting Exaggerated.
1t is my belief, though, that the value
Of scouting Is exaggerated. You have
to have some information about your
rivals in your possession, but after all
the real battle is on the playing field.
After one or two games you get good
line on your opponents and act accord
ingly. I prefer to wait and size UP op-
ponenss against our own pitching, some
thing that has been sealed book to
them. After seeing opponents cope with
our own pitching we can form an idea
Of what they can do.
There Is no doubt that our pitchers are
a different sort from anything the CUPS
have faced during their regular season
BY saying this, I don't want any one
to have the impression that feel that
the National League has no mighty
fingers. mean that the Cubs are 60
in up against type Of pitching they
have never faced before.
It Is also true that our hitters will be
facing a different sort Of pitching than
they met in our regular season. This is
something for us to consider. It is up
to us to fathom out how our batsmen
can work best against the Cub pitchers.
Summed UP, two powerful young
teams are going to vie with each other
In the coming world series. and believe
It Is going to result in base ball at its

don't believe the National League
pitching this year has been as

been hitting some of the best
pitchers all season, and I look for
them to maui the pitchers sent
against them by the Cubs.
