A this year's schedule as the most elaborate arranged by teams representing the two leagues and toek In sll clubs with the exception of he two Chicago teams, the games ecem to Mr out the fact that the Amerkun Litiue has a decided edgo on the Nationals, as already has been evidenced br the younger league's victories In teren of the last eight world's series.

Nowhere be leading the veriest lot of Inepta and pennant clsdm or at least the time honorad observation that his club will take a lot of beatlnv." Mn nrun 1.1- tht Ktino- before the eeaaon Is over. The Inaugural of our second war time bAseball campaign finds many of the clubs shot to pieces some as the result of otners because or the call to the National Army, and most from a combination of both.

Ao we look over the fields In the rival leagues we aro forced to the realization that In the case of the National the ancient terms of enthusiasm and laudation might, with strict adherenco to truth, be used only with respect to the Giants. We have only the friendliest feeling for the gTand old league, but wo must confess that Just now It. looks weaker than ever before. If the best Federal league of them all makes Alexander drop 'the howehlde for the rifle the parent circuit will look so much the worse. How-over, the National might console Itself with the fact that the American does not loom up so wonderful either.

The baseball sharps tell us that the Cincinnati club looks like tho next best outfit the Giants. Lt'a analyze these prospective runners up. Matty hts a first class outfield Roush. Neate and Griffith. That end3 It.

The pitching staff Is weak. Eller and Schneider and there you stop. Keuther haa been offered to Southern ague clubs. Foster, acquired from the Red Sox In the trade for Shesn, wants 18,000 and Is not likely to got It. Gerner haa been drafted and Conley, the youngster from Dalla3, has not made good.

Wyckoff may he taken In lieu of Foster from Boston, but wo cannot work up any enthusiasm over that pitcher's work. For catchers Matty has "Wlngo and Smith and waivers have been asked on the latter. Clarke Is not with the Reds any more. The Red lnneld is naming 10 Drag about either. Chase on first and (Iron on third and the impressive membership end.

For second base Mlackburne Is the leading Candidate, while at short Sam Crane, obtained from Washington, Is the Incumbent. Lee Magee haa been benched for weak hitting and Larry Kopf Is a. holdout. If that's the second best ilub in the National League Gen. Sherman's pungent observation about war strikes us as having many elements of truth.

Giants, Clob of Veterans, Sure to Repeat. The Olants enter the fight for another pennant with truly a senior aggregation. In no department Is there a preponderance of the sparkling vivacity of youth. Even Benny Kauff now Is a veteran. He no lona-er worries about not hitting In practice mina is on nis imminent induction Into the army and we fear he will not hit .800 this season, or In as much of It he performs.

Ross Young may turn out the star McGraw says he Is. The writers who went South with the Giants and Trls Speaker indorse McGraw'a sentiments with regard to the young outfielder, but we must not expect too much from him. If Young hits .275 and Larry Doyle keeps up his Dixie streak of fielding. If Barnes stays with the Giants and the pitching year there will be nothing to the National Lesgue race but the Giants. In the American League we are Inclined to favor the White Sox, but there may be a lg upheaval there.

It's a pity the Yankees haven't a pitcher or two more with experience. Given Fisher. Shawkey and Shocker they would be logical favorites, that despite the fact that the White Sox have the strength and confidence that won them the flag last year. Tho big "If" in tb chances of the White Sox concerns Eddio Clcotte. If the veteran can repeat his triumph of 1917 the pennant will go onco more to Chicago.

However, we doubt very much If Clcotte will do anywhere as well as he did last season. As ball players, particularly pitchers, go Clcotte Is on oldster, and to oldsters success such as was Cicotte's shores In 1917 Is not Ukely to come two seasons In succession. Even as the Yankees stand they are sure to make a grand fight and this In no spirit of the aforementioned hectic enthusiasm or extended laudation. Cabal of Reactionaries Throttled Sunday Baseball Bill. For general accomplishments the Legislature which adjourned a Albany last Saturday night left a record of which It should be ashamed.

For plain and fancy sidestepping and political Juggling in tho face of the demands cf the vast majority of the cltisens our eto-called representatives at the Capitol a record second to none. We can appreciate how some legislators will have qualms about voting for the restoration of professional boxing. They do so hate to Jeopardise the public morals. But when 90 per cent, of the citizens want Sunday baseball we fall to understand how any set of men can Ignore the demand and still call themselves representatives of the voters of this commonwealth. Honing In Borrowed Shell et Conducive to aa Kven Race.

Harvard Is to row at Princeton on the 27th In a shell borrowed front Princeton, and we distrust the experiment. We don't believe that will be fair race, and if racing Is worth while at all everything should be as equal an possible. A shell Is propelled by eight men and no crew Is stronger than ltn wttukest man. If any one of the eight should find liU unfamiliar surroundings In the boat hampering his efficiency the handicap will be translated to the entire eight. Particularly In a shell every man should feel at home.

You who work In offices know that you Uko to sit In your own old chair every day. If somebody comes along and removes It you do not feel exactly right. You can appreciate how much stronger that applies to oarsmen. Even tennis players will Insist on ualni? thel own racquets. A borrowed racquet haa been the excuse for many a defeat.

Baseball players.have their own bats. They guard them Jealously, and with borrowed bats they will tell you they cannot hit as well. Evon a book you own reads better than a book you borrow. Another Tear and Hoppe May HaTe to Abdicate. Another year and Willie Hoppe may be forced to jrlve up his billiard crown to either Welker Cochran or Young Jake Schaefer.

We would not favor a championship match Just now, for a defeat for either of the youngsters would have a mean effect on their future chances. But another year may give the situation an entirely different complexion. Both Cochran anil Schaefer In their match here last week demonstrated that they were veritable topnotchers. On several occasions each averaged better than 40, and Schaefer, who proved the winner, had a grand average of 30. We are told that Hoppe could not do as well- at the present time.

On his tour with Charlie Peterson Hoppe of late has been beaten rather too often. On his travels the champion hna not been able to tako tho exercises which keep him In condition while he is at home. The sameness of routtno and the fatigue of travel no doubt have hurt Hoppe's game. Another year and maybe Schaefer will mount the throne. What more ntting! The young Jake where once cat the mighty old Jake a grs.it among the few greats of the green baize.

Iadleatlons Point to a Big Season In Tennis. The announcement of the season's schedule of the United States National Lawn Tennis Association reflects tho wisdom of the restoration of championships. More than 160 clubs applied for dates, and this does not Include the vast schedule yet to be Issued for tourneys for boys and girls. Of course arranging an event and getting the players to take part in it aro two distinctly Individual operations, but we have confidence in the clubs. None would have applied for sanction had they not felt that they could back their plana with the consummation thereof.

The fact that tho players are to go after things more or loss tangible championships the abolition of which made the season last year sad and drear the fact that the proceeds are to go to the War Department's Commission on Training Camp Activities, the fact that a healthy participation In sport means a healthy morale, all loom up large In tho tennis situation and will make for undoubted erucccss. War Will HaTe No Effect on Racing Here. The war will haye no effect on racing here. That's the dictum from Tom Gallagher, who was born in 1S48 and has seen racing grow from an Infant to a lusty and healthy member of our sport family. Gallagher's word Is only one of hundreds In a similar strain.

We have the greatest horses In the world training right here In New York, at Belmont Park and Gravesend. With the game practically dead In England and France breeders and owners have turned to America as the sole salvation of the port once of kings, now of democracies. Tho stewards of the Jockey Club have provided a generous programme. The racing association has demonstrated a similar generosity In Its stakes and purees and the public Is bound to respond. There Is enough equine quantity and quality to guarantee a big season, and it's coming.

Itlchard Norrls Williams 2d one a former American lawn tennis champion and the other still the national title holder are In London. At least they were thero when the last mnll left that city. They were getting considerable opportunity to play tennis, too. While tho British have abandoned ten nis championship competition they have by no means dropped the sport, ns can be seen from the following from the London Field: "Despite restrictions which place an embargo on alt luxuries Queen's Club continues to draw its patronage from votaries of lawn tennis. Bo brisk has been the demand for covered courts, especially at week ends, that the committee have prudently decided to reduce tho match time from one hour and a half to one hour and a quarter, and they will doubtless hnll the advent of the daylight saving regulations with acclamation.

Need one say that the people who chiefly use the courts are not the old tournament hands, nor nre they men and women who claim any distinctive skill In the application of gut to rubber. "The majority regard Queen's a temporary sepulchre for war worries, and to close the mind and opn the pores of the skin at one and the same time Is In these days the greatest of all boons. It Is no exaggeration to say that more than one statesman, and more than one distinguished sailor and soldier, condemned to sedentary organisation, has nverted a breakdown by a weekly tonic at Queen's. "Then, of course, the club Is exercising a thoroughly laudable function as a rallying centre for 'men on Imagine what It means to a man Who has seen nothing more Inspiring than a wall of mud to 'loosen' himself In the company of old companions, to exchango the trappings of khaki for the fustian of flannel.

It was announced litre to-night. GOLFERS PLAN TO HELP RED GROSS Expect to Itaiso More Than 91,000,000 Through Exhibition Matches. By. JOHN U.

ANDKHSOX. There wcro several striking announcements last week concerning thn golfing situation for the oncoming Ono was the greit efforts which aro to be made to raise a million dollars through tho playing of hundreds of matches by the best players of the land, another was that Liberty bonds might be given as prlxes by clubs under Western Golf As sociation domination, with no loss of amateur status to the winners. Gtlll another was the great number of matches which are to be played by Mrs. A. tlstvln against both amateurs and professionals who would concede to her a handicap of nine strokes.

The statement that amateurs can retain their status and receive a bond, which Is tho equivalent of 350, has made more than one Kastcrnor gasp for Iwenth. The question, so I have read, has already been put up to the United States Golfing Association, and the answer returned was that It was Up to tho Individual clubn to decide whether or not they cared to adopt tho method. Nothing has been said In direct opposition to the scheme because of the patriotic motives bock of the Idea, and nothing really need be said. Thero Is little chance of the system becoming so deep rootedthnt when the war Is over there will be a demand for a continuance, for few clubs can afford to put up such costly prlxes many times In the reason. It does seem as If good Is to be accomplished through the encouraging of the club purchase of Liberty bonds, and It Is only right and fair that those who win them shall have no fear of disqualification.

The campaign which Mrs. flavin, tha best woman player In the metropolitan-district nt the present time, has set before her ought to reap a harvest of money for the locnl branches of the Red Cross. Thero Is Intense Interest In the events where a nrst class woman golfer pits her Bkill against tho craft of a crack male golfer at odds which are believed to bo equal. Since last fall, when Jerome Travers was rather well beaten by Mrs. Gavin In the two contests nt Knglewood and Wykagyl, there have been very few players who have been willing to say that It was possible for a star golfer to give a champion woman player half a stroke a hole and win.

It all seems to be Travers's fault, too. Hvery one felt that If there was one golfer who would not be nffeoted by the odds mentally It would be the four tlmo amateur champion, and when he met so disastrous a setback aforetime opinions were rather quickly revised. May Tarn Tables, However, while In the minority. I nm of the opinion that the matches last fall were not truly representative of tho golfing nhlllties of tha contestants and I believe that series of matches will find the metropolitan champion under the GO per cent, mark In victories. If the contests were played much after the fashion of men golfers wltli matches every day it would be expected that the men with greater physical strength would win.

but with the events coming mice a week or twlco nt tho moat this factor is eliminated. It will, nevertheless, be absolutely essential for the man to see to it that ho is in tho ory best of golfing form. A couple, of defeat.1 of the crack golfers by Mrs. Gavin will spur tho others on to Increased efforts, for, admit It or not, the fact remains that tho golfer of the male sex does not relish the Idea of suffering 11 defeat even at the expense of a. nlno stroke handicap.

Those who play 011 their horns courses will havei flight advantage, perhaps: but In general this home ad vantage ha.i been found negligible. If It Is found possible for Seigeant Oulmet to meet Mrs. Gavin in ono of thco contests I- should fancy onn of tho lurxest gallerlo of the season would result, while a roturn match against Travers should bring out record rrowd, particularly If 11 word from Travcrs Is had that he will reverse tho decision of last fall There have been hints of a home nnd home match between Mis. Gavin nnd Evan, nnd If they are held the lied Cross should benollt to the extent of thousands of dollars. Tho receipts for nil matches ehould not bo less than JO, COO to $15,000.

lines Greatly Increased. There Is one Important feature of club life which 1 have been asked to dwell on bi-lefly nt the present time. This year the cost of golfing lll bo higher than ever before in history. Not only will the Implements of tho gamo cost more but tho club feo In most Instances has been Increased many fold. Tho 10 per rent, war tax bus diminished ths fatnesH of the pockelbonk, and It Is small wonder that tho luxurlci aro causing no little concern.

At a fnw of the club the dues will be over Still, exclusive of war taxes. Thesti dtien have generally been paid in ono Instalment, or at the mnt to, Tho rlrcuinstnncrs this year niako It seem tho pnrt of wldom to make three or even four part time payments sutTIi e. Thero aro many plnyem who aro Just getting on their feft In litisinc, dnd If will help them materially If they ran distrltmtu thn paymtnts over a loim-er time, wlill" the club will not Buffer to any great extent. A friend of mine sulci the other day "I wHh that we could pay our dues in threo or four separate Instalments, for then 1 could see my way clear to take up another Liberty bond." ThlH man considered hl golf not ns a luxury but as a health necesMty, but he needed to calculate the tlmo for payment of gofflng hills to tho week If not the day And there aro many others who aro In the same fix. Clubs which can arrange this departure from rule will find renewed Interest In cluh spirit nnd hrlpfulneim undreamed of before.

It Is the nttenttoii to tho bits of detail which show that the Interest inanl-fexted by tho cluh olllclals Is sincere and worth wiille. Payments due May I.July lli and August 13, with fifteen days of grace, would eatlsfy neuly found but surely present condition.
