OF WHICH KEY WEBSTER is
MEMBER, DEFEATED COL
LEGE OF PHARMACY

From an article in The Phila-
delphia Inquirer, it is noIed that
Norman Artman, son of L. P.
Altman, publisher of The Citizen,
and Mrs. Artman, played first base
Tor Peirce Business School base
bail team against the College of
Pharmacy nine, recently. The
final score was a shutout, 5 to 0,
victory for the Business aggrega-
ton.
In this contest, Altman hit a
double and home run, scored
one run and knocked home three
others.
Artman is also a pitcher on this
club. Recently he defeated fast
club from Philadelphia, striking
out nine batters in seven innings
while he was on the mound.
Local fans remember Norman
as the shortstop for The Citizen
diamondball team of several sea
sons ago and other softball cubs
in this city. He played baseball
at Navy Field on several ocea-
sions.
1t is predicted that should young
Artman keep up his good work,
he will soon be in New York, which
is only 100 miles from the school.
What the writer means is, he will
be playing with the Giants OF
Yankees.

FOLLOWING
THROUGH

1t is interesting to note how the
sports writers of Florida are pick
ing the winners in the big show.
Jack Bell believes the teams will
end in the following order: Ameri-
can League-Yankees, Senators,
Tigers, Indians, White Sox, Red
Sox, Browns and Athletics. Ma
tional League-Cardinals, Giants,
Pirates, Cubs, Reds, Bees, Dodg-
ers and Phillies. Sam Butt of the
Times Union states he sees them
in this order: American-Yanks,
Indians, Red Sox, Senators, Tigers,
White Sox, Browns and Athletics.
National-Giants, Pirates, Cubs,
Cards, Reds, Bees, Dodgers and
Phi.lies. Bryon Hollingsworth of
the T&Hlpa Daily Times thinks
the big show will terminate with
the teams like this: National
Cubs, Giants, Pirates, Reds, Car
dinals, Bees, Dodgers and Phillies,
the same way Harry Grayson pick
them. Herman Canal, of the
Cuban daily La Prensa of Tampa,
believes his pick is right and it
follows: National-Cubs, Pirates,
Giants, Reds Cardinals, Bees,
Dodgers and Phillies. American
Tigers, Yankees, Senators, In
dians, White Sox, Red Sox, Ath-
leties and Browns. Yours truly
will stick to the Cardinals in the
National League and Yankees in
the American circuit as the lead
ing teams. Paul Nicholson re-
CARDS the Yanks as a cinch in the
younger circuit and the Senators
as the next best. The managers
of the Tigers, Indians and Red
Sox all claim their team will have
to beat the Yanks to win the PEN
nant. The Yanks have pitching,
batting and fielding strength
what more does a club need, says
Nicholson.
