THE TWO intersectional high
school games-Corpus at Browns
Vile and Port Arthur at Harlinger

Friday. The Harlingen Cards h-v6
pretty well established the fact tina
they are che CT, II not the. strong
est hirh school elevens in the Val
,er. In Port Arthur they will be
meeting a fast class "A" club. Fans

THE WORLD SERIES opens to-
day al philadelphia with the gen
ersl public backing the Athletics
wv Win their second straight cham
nionship. Perhaps the Athletics VII
win. but it will be a dog fight al
the way. The Cardinals havN gct
ilto a winning habit that IS COINS
10 be extremely difficult 70 freak
The Cardinals beat out three grea'
clubs this year TO cop the National
na-ua banner. The Senators were
the only club that bothered the Ath-
letics al year. The Cardinals are
accustomed 70 high pressure and
tt i not likely that they viii crack

ALL OF TEXAS Is hoping that
WildBll Hallahan will hook up with
Lefty Grove IN a hurting duel during
the series. Wild Bill made a great
hit with Texas fans when re tTlrl-
cd the Bluffs ID a pennant and 2
Dixie championship two years ago.
Houston fans VIII tell you tEat
lahan IS one OF the greatest left-
handlers the texas league e-er sent

An asset. They won't crowd the
plate when Wild Bill Is wheeling
Is fast one in there.
If HALLAHAN AND Grove we're
10 Tie up. Il would probably be the
greatest lefthanded duel since Art
Nehe and Herb Pcnnock matched
slants in 1923. Great shades OF
RUDE waddel. Speaking o. eccent-
ric iefthanders. Walter Johnson
saws Waddel was the greatest pitch
az he ever san In action.
PERHAPS closing the baseball

pars this time IN San Benito.
DISPLAYING surprising
strength. the Harlingen civilian
polo team last Sunday took the
measure az the Fort Brown Off
GERS 1915 at Harrington. The new
anort has been nursed along al
Harrington 10 where IL must be TAX

men handed Fort Brown back he-

rapidly al Harlingen and several in

for the future. The two clubs plan
