The Tuo Races

Although spring practice is three
months away, American league
managers-plus Owners--plus ball
players-are still brooding over the
promised strength Of the Yankees.
In the meanwhile, the National
can look forward to another all
summer scramble among Dodgers,
Cardinals, Reds and possibly Pr
rates or someone else.
The Reds with Johnny Wander
Nicer and Elmer Riddle on hand to
help out their pitching veterans will
be better club next spring if Bill
McKechnie can plug one or two
gaps. Bill is lucky these gaps are
not in his pitching department, the
toughest canyon to fill up.
Having located a large part Of
his control, Wander Nicer is likely to
be one of the great pitchers of 1912.
So is Riddle.
But at this point American league
clubs can see no light rays of any
consequence. Seven Of them are
looking into holes as deep and as
dark as the mouth Of a railroad
tunnel.
The Red Sox still haven't the
pitching or the defensive speed to
close up that big gap between them
selves and the Yankees. The Red
Sox still lack the infield ground
covering speed needed to help any
pitcher along. The Yankee infield
has killed off many a rap starting
for a base hit that Red Sox infield-
ers couldn't have handled.

At that time the Bismarck was

At daylight on May 27 another
striking force of naval aircraft

Bismarck engaged our destroyers

H. M. S. Norfolk was in action

Bismarck and proceeded to sha-

other striking force of naval
aircraft was flown of by H. NJ.

A second hit was obtained by
