Juneau Bakery Secs Tighter Race The Detroit manager, who still| holds the distinction of being the| only pilot of a pennant-winner in | Washington (1924-25), thinks his Tigers will do their share toward tightening up the American League race and reducing the gap which separated the Yankees from the rest of the clubs last year. 1 “It will be tough to beat Lhel Yankees, under any circumstances,” Harris admitted, “especially if they get the same kind of pitcr had last year. But Detr land, Washington, Philade'phia and Chicago all should make a better showing against the champions. Killefer's club in st. Louis will be far from a setup. “I have four new men—Marber- ry, Rowe, Fox and Owen—who fig- ure to make Detroit stronger than at any time since I became mana- ger.” The GE Cleaner Bright, fresh rugs and{/ — — The Rt.
