GOTHAM DEPENDS
 ON GIANTS FOR PENNANT CHANCE
By ALAN GOULD GA. P. Sports Es,itcr)

NEW YORK, May 6.---For four teen, successive seasons, Old Pop Knickerbocker has had at least one major league pennant contender.
 The Yankees have won six pen nants, been second twice-all with in the past nine seasons.
 The Giants have captured five championships and finished second five times since 1916
 Across the East river, Brooklyn has hoisted two pennants aloft and finished second once, at four year intervals begun in 1916.
 For only the second time in a decade, however, no New York en- try is a favorite in either race. Three years ago the Pirates and Athletics were the choices. The Buccaneers won but the Yankees upset the As then a championship club in the making.
 Fob Shawkey has found himself in a troublesome spot, picking up the job that Miller Higgins handled and attempting to fill number of vital spots with rookie talent. On top Of this, Shawkey must rely on a number of stars such as Ruth, Pennock, Hoyt, and Pipgras, who have indicated a tendency to start downhilll
 Lacking anything like the class of the Worlds Champion Athletics, the Yankees also face the challenge of such up-and-coming teams as the Chicago White Sox, Cleveland h. dians and Detroit Tigers
 On the other hand, the Giants, away to good start, seem to have found some very useful replace ments, such as Marshall at second base and Roettger in the outfield. With the best left-handed pitching in the league and number of right handlers who should make a respectable showing, McGraw's pu- pills look like very serious contend CTS for what the old-timers called the gonfalon.
 Few early season predictions, however, will hold substantial weight until the intersectional war fare begins.

Supremacy in polo, like golf, passed from Britain to America with the postwar stimulation of Yankee activity and has remained on this side ever since-to the somewhat decided annoyance of our friendly English rivals and in spite of their most courageous ef forts to alter the situation.
 Just now the British are concep- rating on a third successive aS- tempt to lift the classic Interna- tional Polo Cup from American hands.
 Advices to this department iron abroad are that it is by far the most serious expedition yet organ ized and that the leading candi- dates for the British team, under the leadership of Captain Charles Tremayne, already are in training
 The British polo four this year is being built around the dashing figure of the Irish internationalist. Captain c. T. I. PaD Roark, sensation in American tournaments .tsG summer.
 With him in training are Cap tain Treymane, Major G. H. Phipps Hornby and H. P. Guinness.
 The latter two are experienced but it is the American view that the British stand little chance of winning this year unless they call some younger stars, such as Pat Roark's brother, Alden Roark, and the Baldings, Cecil and Gerald, to the oolors. This is on the theory that it will take speed, dash and plenty of it to overcome the Amcri- can side.
 The ordinarily conservative Lon don Times, discussing the polo situation, remarks:
 "The English team is likely to be strong and as the Americans rely mostly on players who will be new to international polo, it is thought there is an excellent chance of the cup being brought back to Eng land"
 This will be news to Captain Tommy Hitchcock and Winston Guest, two pretty well known inter- nationalists, as well as such other American stalwarts are Pedley, Boe- seke, young Earl Hopping and oth-

floor:

quoted at TAN, off p, was bid in at

Almost the entire North Atlantic
seabcard-a region famous for its
picturesque beauty-gazed today on
acres of blackened ruins that lie in
the wake of destructive fires.
Seven states directly were affected
by the property damage, which ran
into millions of dollars.
Generally, damage resulted from
apparently harmless grass fires
which were famed quickly INTO
destructive blazeS by brisk winds.
Although the fire left its mark
from Delaware to New Hampshire,
no deaths we're reported and few
injuries.
The most disastrous fire occurred
at Nashua, N. H, where sparks from
a locomotive started a 100000
blaze. The city virtually was under
martial law today.
Hundreds were driven from their
homes in New Jersey when f1remen
