BY WILL WEDGE, Of the Staff of the New York Globe. HE 1923 edition of the Giants, just off the press of that famous pub- T lisher, Dixie Weather, and which will plunge into the press of an- other National League pennant competition tomorrow, looks to be a splendid and precious volume. Base ball critics predict that the Giants’ 1923 edition will be just as valuable and interesting as the gilt-edged, hand- tooled, de-luxe-bound edition that won all the awards in 1922. Aud with Southpaw Jack Bentley bound within the pages of their roster. the Giants look even stronger than last year's classy collection. | But will the Giants “collect” in the jorthcoming race, considering they arc at least cqually strong as the 1922 outfit> Obviously they ought | to do so, and it would be presaged here that they would were it not for | the fact that the champions will encounter much more formidable oppo- | sition this vear, particularly from the Pittsburgh and Cincinnati clut The Giants™ biggest asset, just as it was last year, is their latent quality | of inspired power—thcir ability to “step on the g and drive roughshod ahead whenever the occasion demands.
