TEN TUE EVENING REVIEW, EAST LIVERPOOL, OHIO. MONDAY, APRIL 21 1 24 SHOWING MARKS OPENING WEEK Hang up One Victoiy in Five Starts, Bad Pitching by Highly Touted Staff is Blamed. By J. NKW YORK. April of gev- eral foaturlng the openlnR week of the major leaRue pennant races was furnished by none other than our esteemed New York Yankees, cast for the role of champions, but playing the part of chumps, at the moment.

Not since the champ days prior to and including 1920 have the Yankees given such an exhibition as they did during the first few days of the American league race, and when the Yankees are bad wo defy any ball club to be worse. Their present record Is one victory In five starts. The lone credit bor- dered on illegitimacy at that, successive errors by rtambsgans letting in the winning run in the ninth Inning of the opening game at Boston. Since then the world's champions have lost four In a row to the tied Sox and Senators, generally picked as logical flat feet. Bad pitching by what is considered the greatest staff In the major leagues is one answer.

The Senators and lied Box have knocked the Yankee pitchers off for 37 runs, no less, in the last four games. Every member of the so called five-star stah has suffered without discrimination. Colossal Infield blunders and failure to hit tipporlunely have done the rest. hereaic enoqglimen MRIS CARTERS to elect fKeneid pieskieni- easih!

They constitute an early season surprise as do the Chicago White Sox, who got away running against the Browns and now top the league in collaboration with the Tigers with four victories and one defeat. 'The present position of the Indians and Browns is unnatural, neither having been able to muster consistent pitching.

The Indians have vet to strike their winning stride and several of the young pitchers have disappointed Speaker. John McGiaw cannot complain on this score with any degree of consistency. Three of his four winning efforts have been turned In by young men. Wayland Dean gave him $50,000 worth of pitching on his premiere In the majors; Virgil Barnes beat the Braves on Saturday and yesterday Iluntstnger gave a natty performance against the same club. So far, Mc- jdraw found It necessary to call on his veterans, with the exception of Ryan in the opening game and Nehf 1 for relief purposes.

The rest of the National lA'ague procession Is running more or less ss it should barring the fart that the Dodgers do not belong in the first division. Chiha. O.

Ruth trifled with Walter for his first home run of the season. the The Stampede. Did it ever occur to you that the great ado as to where and for whom Georges Carpenller will make his of- clclal appearance before an American public might indicate a common belief that the pale Illy has withered? In signing Carpentler for a bout with Tunney, the astute Billy Gibson was careful to have inserted In the contract a clause InsLstlng that the mutch be the first in this country since the Dempsey deba- (Hbson set the date at June 20. Forthwith Floyd Fitzsimmons, who had signed the fair one to meet Tom Gibbous at Michigan City on July 4, hurried east for the aliegtd purpose of offering Gibson 130.000 to release Carpentler from the Tunney engagement. Falling to tempt Gibson he advanced hl.s own date to May 31.

Why? If something unpleasant was not likely to occur to Georges, it much matter in what order Carpen after January 1 next, believing that it is serving the interests of amateurism.
