Next years race will be under

victor.

Washington has had at least
a glance at every club in the
American League and a great
deal more than that of the
Philadelphia Athletics who are
infesting the city again today
may they be carried out on
stretchers!
To the minds of many, the i'm
pressions which the first third
of the race has created are APP
proximately these:
That the AS have a superiori-
ty complex which will not be
denied. If they are like many
of their immediate predecessors
who have cracked at the crucial
moment, that symptom has yet
failed to appear on the sur
face.
That the Detroit team is the
most improved club in the West
and can rise up at any moment
to make trouble for the best of
'em;
That Washington, besides hav-
ing a lot of bad playing has had
plenty of bad breaks and that
Walter johnson is more to be
pitied than censured;
That Walter has a better
think tank for baseball strategy
than many gave him credit for
having when he was created
manager here and that much of
his master minding has been
we'll founded but failed because
his pawns didn't have the power
to do his bidding, and,
That the Griffmen are batting
and fielding good enough to
make their presence felt even at
this period of the race if they
could get come sustained pitch
ing.
