the one that won a championship last season The team should be far stronger this year from having so much more experience tog-ether What was most needed additional pitching strength seems to have been provided The unfortunate accident to Sherwood Magee greatly dims the chances of the Phi Ilies the most formidable foe of the champions Chicago may always be counted upon to prove troublesome and so may Pittsburg A rattling good first baseman would boost the Pirate stock almost to par Those who have seen the Cubs this spring declare tbist Chance's Infield looks almost as Pwest as the old combination that helped win three pennants in a row They do say that Johnny Evers is hack in all his glory andthat Eddie Lennox is showing a game at third every bit as sensational as the spurt with BrooklYn that made him the talk of the National League a couple of seasons back But the Giants should beat Out both Chicago and Pittsburg it asrvi eto6 the Triohlsa (lora will Tin 1 1 1 l- 4 i i to 1'

The Star-Telegram NEW 'YORK April is a remote possibility of New York "hogging" the world's championship series next fall No club in the National League has a better chare for the pennant than John Mc agile champions harry Wolverton's outlook with the-ilighlanders does not appear nearly so bright as Mc Graves but this club has a great deal better than an outside look-in with the sensational world's champion Athletics Let us first consider the Highlanders for they are the more doubtful proposition Wolverton firmly be that he has a chance to wrest the crown from Connie Mack's brow lie is not underestimating the Athletics perhaps overestimating his own followers A convictions will go a long way In an honest pulse Wolver- ton not only believes in his team but he has every member of the squad infused with the desire to make the very lyest possible showing There is not a man on the pay roll' but has complete confidence in himself and his teammates individually and collectively The club is hooked up far more closely than It has ever before been amalgamated A snappy bustling style of play with every athlete full of life and poise is bound to prove at least an interestingly novelty to American League fans who have been used to look upon the Hilltoppers as a rather lethargic group despite any race position they might occupy Wotverton a Slavedrivec Wolverton is a manager who will get eveny 011r1CP of energy out of his followers He is a hustler a driver But he never 'asks a player to work harder than himself and be drives himself as long and arduously as the SI veriest recruit Within a week after he took charge of the club he had every player pulling for him They respect his abilty as a player and admire his fine knowledge of the game gained in a long and flattering period of serviee in the ranks Wolveriot's theory is that a team of ordinary players pulling together at all times has twice the chance of auccess that a bunch of stars Would have if some of them overlooked the common welfare In selfish motives Harry Wolverton has no had club There are few weak spots to he found anywhere in the array These are prospective weaknesses There is a big question
