Joe Tinker, scouting the Philadelphia
Athletics for the Chicago Cubs, believes
that to beat the AS In the world series,
the Cubs will have only to stop AL Sim

eff we can stop Simmons and Fox" "
Tinker said today, "the series is ours.
They are the only men we are afraid
of. The Athletics have q good ball
team, but the kid on first and the big
boy in the outfield are the only ones
we'll worry about.
Haas and Miller are good ball play
ers and Mickey Cochrane Is great
catcher, but good as they are the fell
lows that worry me are Simmons and
Foxx. Them and George Earnshaw;
maybe Jack Quinn, too.
THE Cubs will murder Grove and
Walberg. Our players eat up SOUTH
paws. Earnshaw may bother us and
old Jack Quinn may give us trouble.
Old Jack has been around long while.

Until q week ago 1t appeared as II
the Futurity field would be the smallest
In history, with Harry Payne Whitney's
great combination of Whichone and
Boojum dominating the six and three
ener chute. But then came the Cham
payne Stakes, In which Whichone and
Boojun were split by William Zeigler,
IRIS Gone Away.
Whichone Has Close Call.
Along with the defeat Of the pre-
viously unbeaten Boojum by his stable
mate and the Zeigler youngster came
the statement Of e. G. Smith, the
Jockey Clubs chief placing judge, that
Whichone's margin Of victory over
Gone Away was no more than a neck
Chartmakers, viewing the finish from
a difficult angle, placed the Whitney
flash from a length and a half to two
lengths in front of Gone Away.
Before the running of the Cham
payne, owners, trainers and public alike
were almost willing to concede the
Whitney entry one-two in the rich turf
event. But the developments Of the
last seven days have stiffened the back
bone Of q dozen or more trainers who
had made UP their minds that it would
not be worthwhile to send their charges
out against Whichone and Boojum,
even for o purse that should gross
upward Of $125.00 and pay its win
ner more than 100000.

upper hand In the futurity, Mrs. Payne
Whitney's Greentree Stables appears to
have the $35, 900 Grand National Steeple-
chase well in control. Carrying the col

7-year- jumper, out for his third
consecutive grand national victory, and
Fairfield, one Of the leading fencers OF
the year.
If the Greentree colors are to be
lowered for the first time in three years,
the task lies with Thomas Hitchcock,
sr's. consistent Bangle or the Fox
catcher Farms Ruler, which defeated
the Greentree pair a week ago over a
2-mile course. The distance of the
Grand National, however, is 3 miles.
Supplementing the Futurity and the
Grand National will be the tenth run

Vandenberg is more vitality in
terested in the reapportionment
bill than any other piece of legis-

warned his colleagues on the com
mittee yesterday that he will op-
pose any effort to bring up the
merger resolution ahead of his
reapportionment bill.
At Standstill
That probably means, observers
declared, that the merger resolution
will have to wait for the reappor-
tionment bill which may be one of
the last measures acted upon by the
Senate at this session. In fact even
reapportionment may not be taken
up before the session closes.
Thus the merger is evidently at a
standstill, at least for the present,
in the Senate.
