HUGGINS LEADS YANKS TOWARD WORLD PENNANT Won in World Series Twice * But Lost Last Year To New York Giants New York, Oct. 6.—Miller Hug- ns, diminutive manager of the New Yor kees, will lead his men this season in their third successive at- tempt to win the world’s baseball championship. stars, regarded as one of the t in diamond history, Hug- ned a large of the ached to the vement of capturing three straight Ameri- can League pennants. In 1921 and again in 1922, when his club won pennants but lost in the world’s series'to the New York Giants, Huggins was made the tar- get of criticism by many baseball experts. They said Huggins was not strict enough with his men, that he could not rule them, that they did as they pleased.+ Cleveland gave the Yankees a hard fight for the pennant in 1921. The St. Louis Browns made a close race of it last year but this season the Yankees have won by a margin that leaves no doubt of their superiority. Huggins’ men have worked togeth- er in’winning their third pennant. They played as a team, not the set } of individual stars they seemed in 1921 and 1922, Babe Ruth, incorri- gible as a 10 year old schoolboy for two years, has been Huggins’ great- est player this year. The pitching staff has been unequalled by any other in either league. Expects To Be Winner | Huggins has never won a world’s j series, but he is confident that he will enter the winning lists this year. A John McGraw of the Giants and | Connie Mack of the Athletics each |have won three world’s series, more jthan any other manager. McGraw jwon with the Giants against Mack's Athletics in 1905 and in 1921 and 1922 the Giant leader triumphed over Huggins’ Yankees. Mack’s Athletics won the series of 1910 from Frank Chance and the Chicago Cubs and in 1911 defeated McGraw’s Giants. In 1913 Mack again won from McGraw Frank Chance won two series with the Cubs, defeating the Americans) led by Hughey Jennings in 1907 and 1908. Bill Carrigan led the Boston Americans to victory in 1915 and 1916, vanquishing the Phil- adelphia Nationals in the first ser- ies and Brooklyn in the other, McGraw has led his team into act tion in nore world’s series than any lother pilot, battlfhg last season for the premier diamond title for the seventh time.
