1888 majus hawaiian a Bre-
men hajon utban voltam Anne
rika fele. Az ebedloben egy ur
volt asztaltarsam, egy hatal-
mas amerikai utazasi iroda
tisztviseloje. Pragaban jart,
ahova egy csapat masodik es
harmadik generacios cseh fla
tai embert es leanyt kisert,
akik a Scent Vencel unnepse-
gekre utaztak at sziileik oha-
zajaba.
Utitarsamnak angolos neve
volt, de hamarosan raj0ttem,
hogy cseh szarmazasu. SGT ar
ra is, hogy nemcsak az ameri-
kai utazasi iroda tisztviseloje,
hanem egy kicsit a cseh pro-
paganda szolgalataban all.
Eszrevettem ugyanis, hogy uti-
tarsaink k0zul nehanynak a
hivatalos cseh propaganda iro-
danak, az Orbisnak nyontat-
vanyait adta olvasni, amelyek
termeszetesen mind ait bizo-
nyitottak, hogy milyen nagy-

es mennyire alaptalan oft a

Harmadik nap voltunk a vi
zen, amikor a radio AIT a hirt
hozta, hogy Csehszlovak allan
mozgositott a nemetek ellen.
Majus 21-ike volt, amikor q
csehek AIT hittek, hogy a ne
metek mar dul0re akarjak vim
nj a sudeta kerdest.
A hajon meglehet6sen ideges
allapot keletkezett. A nemet
utitarsak persze szidtak Be-
nest, szidtak a cseheket. Ma
gam ARA gondoltam, hogy ta-
Ian ez a cseh-nemet marako-
das felszabaditja a Felvidek
magyarjait is.
Asztaltarsam volt talar a
legidegesebb a hajon. Valosag-
gal elvesztette 0nuralmat es
bar allandoan hangoztatta

long around the top where the mat
ter of team spirit is concerned?
Here are just few that I can rec
ommend from rather close contact:
19O5-McGraw's Giants with Mat
ty, McGinnity, Bresnahan, Devlin,
Dahlen, Donlin.
1906-The Chicago White Sox with
Fielder Jones, Donohue, IsbeIl,
Walsh, Altrock.
1907-Frank Chances Cubs with
Chance, Evers, Tinker, Sheckard,
Steinkaldt, King.
1914-The Boston Braves of
George Stallings with Evers, Mar
awhile, Rudolph, Tyler, James,
Gowdy.
1934-St. Louis Cardinals with
Frisch, Pepper Martin, Medwick,
Dean, Delaney, Collins, Durocher
the old Gas House Gang.
1936-1939-The N. Y. Yankees, of
whom Joe Mccarthy demands team
spirit, even when he has to get rid of
great pitcher and star outfelder.
The TtUo Leaders
My selections from 35 years of
baseball would place two teams on
top in this respect-the White Sox of
1906 and the Boston Braves of 1914.
Neither was anything like a great
ball club. The Sox then were known
as the Hitless Wonders. Their team
batting average was around .223.
They foundered most of the year,
and then under the crabby leader
ship of Fielder Jones and the almost
raving upheaval of Jiggs Donohue at
first they came along to win 10
straight, bag the pennant from
much better teams, and then whip
Frank Chances Cubs who had won
116 games that season and were sup
posed to be invincible.
That record of 116 victories still
stands. But even such fighters as

about the Braues of 1914
George Stallings' Braves were
much along the order of the 1906
White Sox.
They were no great ball club. They
were around last place in early July.
They were supposed to be the league
flop. And then the vital spark ar
rived. They began overhauling one
team after another with Rudolph,
Tyler and James working in order.
Rudolph, Tyler and James-Ru-
dolph Tyler and James-day after
day, week after week, month after
month.
In addition, there was Hank Cow
dy back of the bat, and there were
Johnny Evers and Rabbit Maran-
vile working at second and short
two ''disembodied spirits" -two
diminutive chunks of nerve, brains
and courage.
They won the pennant. They had
to face Connie Mack's brilliant team
that had won three pennants-a
team that had Bender and Plank in
the box, and McInnis, Collins, Barry
and Baker for an infeld,-0ne of
the great teams of all time.
But the Braves beat them four
straight.
The 1910 Pennant Chasers
Neither may bag a pennant this
season but you won't stumble over
any keener spirit than Brooklyn and
Pittsburgh will show this summer.
Leo Durocher and Frank Frisch will
handle that part Of the job. Both
demand hustlers, still carrying
along the flame of the Gas House
delegation.
The Brooklyn Dodgers demon
strated their hustle and spark by
winning the first nine games of the
season. Included in this march were
four shutouts and a no-hit game.
The Yankees depend more on
deadly efficiency in all departments,
The lone detail that could beat them
this summer would be a deficit In
the old urge, after four years of mop
ping up. The vital spark can't car
ry on forever.
But the Dodgers and Pirates viii
have sparks flying all over the land
scape. They may not be two of the
best ball clubs that ever piled into
a pennant scrimmage, but neither
were the White Sox of 1906 nor the
Braves Of 1914.
The "old college try" can make
a whale of a difference
