Di Maggie Feuds With Fellow Italian Players, But
 the Yanks Needn't Fear

Squabbles andmutinies in baseball doesn't support this fear. Some of our very best teams have had a cou- pie of boys wrangling down the home stretch.
 How about, for instance, Joe Tinker and Johnny Evers? You'd never suspect to watch their precis- ion performance, that the famous Tinker-to- Evers-to- Chance double play combination was marred by hate for one another. Tinker and Evers were, perhaps, the greatest second base pair of all time.
 And yet they were about as har- monious as two drunks at the other end of the bar. They didn't speak to one another for 8 couple of cam- paigns.
 EVERY YEAR THEY FIGHT
 Bringing it more up to date, at least on, pennant-winner in each of the last four or five years, has seen its dugout or clubhouse enlivened by nice, old-fashioned hair-pulling on the part of two or more players.
 Ben Chapman and Babe Ruth sneered and snarled at each other throughout the Yankees 1882 pen- ant-winning drive; Goose Goslin and Joe Cronin almost came to blows twice during the Washington's 1883 championship battle; the Deans -Dizzy and Daffy-battled with the entire Cardinel team, before, during and after each game of the Gas House Gangs pennant dash in 1884; and rookie catcher Walter Stephen son and shortstop Billy Jurges swapped punches on the bench in the heat of the Chicago Cubs suc- cessful flag fight in 1885.
 These are just a few-recalled offhand-- of the inter-club feuds that have snoldered and flared up on championship clubs. There are countless more, disproving the belief that e bit of clubhouse squabble wrecks club.
 It would be best, of course, to have all milk and honey. It would be best if DiMaggio and Lazseri and Cros- etti had good cry oil one anothert shoulder and forgave and forgot.
 But it's just about impossible te get a men together. make them sleep together, dress together. trave together and work together without having . disagreement here ant there.

Experts agree that the New York Yankees will win the American League pennant again this semester if they don't fall prey to overconfi- dence and dissension Ruppert's Rifles, according to the boys, need fear no foe but their own dear little selves.
 We'll, as regards overconfidence any thought that the proud and prosperous Yankees would be snug about victory and satisfied with themselves disappeared like pay check during the exhibition series down south when they played every one of the insignificant citrus belt games right up to the hilt. No chips were down in these games, but the Yankees played for keeps.
 Eagerly they leaped into each battle, tapping up the enemy's blood and hungrily licking their chops as they slaughtered both major and minor league pitchers with savage glee.
 Veteran observers were rather sur- prised to hear the proud world champions discuss the strength and weaknesses of the minor league players they were facing on the morrow.
 And so there have been no charges of overconfidence preferred against the Yankees.
 LITTLE ITALY SEETHING
 However, there are dark hints heard abound and about, that there is some internal dissension in the subsequently, in the Little Italy sector.
 It seems, according to somewhat widespread and considerably reliable word, that Giuseppe DiMaggio no spik English, or anything else for that matter, to Antonio Laz0eri and Frank Crosetti, his fellow team- mates, fellow San Franciscans, and fellow-countrymen.
 It's not exactly Q Hatfield-McCoy feud, this coldness between the three great Italians. but there's no doubt that the lads have good hate on Some of the experts, as we said before. have an idea that this little bit of unhappiness in the once- happy family is going to work against the Yankees chances ok res beating.

Lutheran church became the scene
of feverish activity. While the pas
tor was sitting serenely in his
study, after having conducted Sun
day morning services, Sunday
school and Bible classes, things be-
gan to happen. In a few minutes
the streets had filled with cars and
