Three Other Boil Clubs
Think Nothing Of Cubs.

What the Yankees did to the Cubs
would have been done just as force
fully. though perhaps with greater
effort, by the Red Sox, the Indians, or
the Tigers. Those three clubs are at
least the equals Of the Yanks as run
makers, though they yield more runs
in the process.
And what happened to the Cubs
would have happened to the Pirates,
the Giants, or the Reds.
Myself. wouldn't be sorry to see
the Yankees licked in the next World
Series. even if 1t made Col. Jake
Rupert cry. But how are you going
to do It? And If you do it. who's
going to believe It? And will Yale
