THE FREMONT MESSENGER. FREMONT. OHIO. TUESDAY, MAY 17, 1033 PAGE NINE American League's Eastern Clubs Seek Pennant In West PRESS PASSES Over the Desk From Jerry Liska Messenger Sportt Editor Ml LIZ? LA By HUGH 8. FIXLERTOX, Jr.

Associated Frew Sports Writer According to no less an authority than Joseph Vincent McCarthy, who is pretty sure his New Yorc Yankees will finish on top for the third straight year, the west is the place to win the American league pennant. Joe's reasoning isn't quite clear in the light of current standings, for Cleveland in second place is the only western entry in the league's 'straightening out that close pen-inant race. Far Cuhs I The New York Giants have prac-Itlcally the same idea about the 1 National league flag and everything seems to bear out their con-I tention that they can virtually set-'tle the race in the next couple of I weeks. Breezing along under a comfortable five-game lead, the Giants open their home stand against the Chicago Cubs, con first division. The Boston Red Sockers head the parade and the Yanks and Washington are running third and fourth, all within two games of the lead.

Likewise the eastern clubs won 22 out of 32 games during the recent home stand against the west. The western jaunt which today finds the Red Sox facing Chicago's White Hose and the Yanks at St. Louis after advance openings yesterday, may have a lot to do with sidered about the most dangerous of the western group. Cleveland's Indians began the east-west series yesterday turning back the Philadelphia Athletics, 4-3 In 10 innings and moving Into sec- i ond place. The victory put the a half gnme up on the Senators, who suffered their fourth 'straight defeat at Detroit's hands, 13-7.

Successive doubles by "Bad (News" Hale and Jeff Heath In the Phillies. Hal Schumacher had practically nothing on the ball. Chuck Klein, Gene Corbett, Her-schel Martin and Pinky Whitney contributed home run for the Phils. Deacon Danny MacFa pitched and batted the Boston Bees to a 5-4 victory over Brooklyn in the day's only other game. He limited the Dodgers to six blows and his double started the winning rally in the seventh.

10th gave the Indians their winning run against the A's. Vernon Kennedy pitched seven-hit ball for Detroit to gain his fifth straight triumph with barking that included a homer with bases full by Rudy York and one by Charley Gehringer with one aboard.

I do not agree with those who differentiate by defining the angler as one who uses only artificial lurei, and tha fisher as one who does not.

There art many artificial lure purists who do not fish for the species that cannot be caught on their lures, while a lot of us do like to use worms for catfish and perch, and while I have read about both species being caught on artificial lures, I have never seen It done and have never been able to do it myself. Until I know for a certainty that It can he done with some degree of regu larlty. I'll stick to Webster's definition of an angler. In connection with the problem of the dealers getting a sufficient supply of live bait from the streams for those who Insist on using them, conies the question of which type of anfjler really catches the largest number of fish, the live bait useis or the ones who use only artificial lures. I would not attempt to settle this question but my personal opinion Is that the artificial lure boys lead the field by a large margin.
