WORLD WESTERNERS AGAIN SMELL SMOKE OF WORLD'S SERIES BALL BATTLE By GEORGE M. VARNELL. Based on the assumption that the White Sox and Giants will be the entries in the great baseball derby which will be staged next month, it will be the first time since 1910 that a team on the western division of either of the big league circuits has managed to get a lookin on the split of the post-season gate receipts. When Frank Chance's Cubs battled their way into the classic and met the Philadelphia Athletics in 1910, the west had its last taste of the special dessert which is served up annually for the rabid ones of the great national pastime. The Athletics won that clash in four out of five games.

When the pennant races of 1911 were finished it left the Athletics and the New York Giants to battle for the 60 and 40 per cent divisions in the big series and the Athletics turned the trick on McGraw's gang by winning four out of six games. The following year, in 1912, the Athletics gave way to the Red Sox as the American league representative in the big series, but New York copped again in the National. The experience of 1911 proved of no use to the Giants, however, for again the Cougan's Bluff aggregation fell before the American league club in the classic. This series was the longest played since the inI troduction of the world's championship. It took eight games before the Red Sox won the verdict, four games to three.

One game in that series was a tie. In 1913 the Athletics resumed their pennant winning gait and easily topped the American league with New York again the National league entry and 1 McGraw got his third taste of defeat. The American league crowd took four out of five games. In 1914 the Athletics went into the world's series against the Boston Braves a topheavy favorite. The Braves had put up a driving finish to win the National flag, and earned the plaudits of baseball fans throughout the country, but Stallings' nine didn't look like contenders against Mack's wonderful machine with the $100.000 infield, yet Boston delivered a smashing drive and licked the Athletics in four straight games.

In 1915 Pat Moran awakened the National league supporters in quiet old ADVERTISING Philadelphia by presenting a flag to the town at the close of the National race, but the effort have been too much for Moran, Alexander et al. for the Red Sox played the American league to the fore once again by trimming the Phillies four out of five in the classic. Brooklyn Looks In. The Brooklyn club outdistanced its rivals in the National league race in 1916 and the Dodgers under fat Manager Robinson hooked up with the Red Sox as the American league representative. The result of that series is still fresh in the minds of baseball forlowers.

It took Boston five games to win the premier honors, Brooklyn getting one out of the total played. This year the west comes back into its own with the White Sox as its entry and the New York Giants as the Tener standard bearer. It will be a matter of weeks only when the history of the coming clash can be written for the of baseball, but in the meantime the baseball appetites of long starved western fans are being whetted for one of the greatest feasts in the history of world's series bartles.
