Dear Sir: You seem to view with clubs in National league as being with- out precedent. If you will take a slant at Canto 81 of Mr. Dante's’ “Divine | ORT LIGHT Grantlend Rice it be done?” We've never tried it, 'so we are in no position to answer. The Giant Rally. Here and there for the last three weeks the Giants have shown a ten- 8@ency to rally and emerge from the grotto. They have presented flashes of first class play and have started as if they meant business. But after each of these flashes they have imme- diately subsided again and slipped back. It was all well enough back in April and May to suggest that the campaign was young and that the stretch was still far beyond. But June is now verging on toward July and the Giants have yet to show any of the consistency which in past years lofted them up. They have had two months or more of it and haven't been able to get going. Couple these two months with the last three months of the 1914 campaign and you have five months of ineffectiveness. This, ofthand, doesn’t indicate any revival of the old days. Neot enough for the cheering to begin booming against the ancient walls of Coogan's Bluff. As we understand it, Bryan didn't have the ‘“ten-day notice of release’” clause cut and. so jumped before waivers were asked and before he could be sent back to Nebraska for further seasoning. The Fury Limit. ““Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned ?”’ ‘Well, how about that poor beénighted wreck, ‘Who, some hot morning as he dresses finds A boil just where his ‘eollar hits hll neck? Not Forgetting the W..Sox. When in New York the Tigers seemed to figure the Red Sox as their main opponents. The dope as out- lined by Detroit’s eminent travellers was that Rowland's club was a bear at home but a penguin away on hos- tile soil. Unless present signs are highly mis- leading the Tigers had also -better keep at least one orb peeled on the White Sox. They have a first class ball -club——possibly not as strong in some ways as the Red Sox, but one that is likely to pull together better and hustle harder all the way. They have fine pitching and the best offence any White Sox team has {shown in many years—a far better offence than the old White Sox ma- chine which cleaned up in 1906. They have a club that only rough luck can drive from the race. As we understand it, some weeks | back the Phillies were to hit the skids in May and begin making motions like a fat man descending a greased chute. Comedy” you will discover the Giants in the Eighth Circle’ as far back as Virgil's time. You will also find the veteran shortstop Lucifer in the Thirty-fourth Canto batting consider- able under .220, though still cover- ing a lot of ground. After all, you see, we are merely lamping old fl;ms. S. D. P. “I know,” writes Freddie H., “that it is the proper thing to keep your eye on the ball, but how the dickens can But unless some imiscreant has been tampering with the standing of the clubs they are taking their time about whizzing back to the second division.
