That the Philadelphia Athletics are incincible for another year, and pos- sibly two, is the bellef of Frank Chance, winner of four Natjonal league pen- nants and two world's champlonships, Chance subscribes to this bellef. His statement is unique In that, so far a known, he 15 the first National league manager to voluntarily recognize the superfority of the American league leader This, however, is as far as Chance is willing to acknowledge the supe. riority of the younger organksation. He does not belleve that the results of the several post-season contests, aside from the world's serles, served to give | a true line on the mctual strength of the competing clubs. Laylng aside prejudice and profes- sional bies, the dope would seem to indicate. that the American league is a shade faster than the Natlonal, but the difference would be only barely perceptible in a full season’s play, and in all probability the conditions will be exactly reversed two or three years hence. Chance is sincere in his estimate of the Athletics, and gave his opinion re- garding them fresly. He does not har- bor the slightest il feeling toward | Mack and his team, despite the de- | clsive trouncing which the Cubs ex- perienced at their hands in 1910, “You ask wherein lies the great strength of the Athletica?” said Chance, repeating the guestion which had been put to him. “This may best be answered by saying that the Mack machine really has no glaring weak place in its lineup. First base is the only position that is open to question, and I am not qualified to pass on that | for the simple reason that I did not have an opportunity to see McInnis in actfon. If he is as good as claimed, the Athletic infield practically is wit out a flaw. “Just to what extent McInnis would have increased the effectiveness of the Athletics in the series with the New York Giants is problematical, but Stuffy certainly made a fine and dandy record during the regular season. “Mack has a fine pitching staff, his outfleld has shown its ability to deliver the goods, while the catching force has demonstrated that it is good enough for all practical purposes. In short, the Athletics are a well rounded bese- ball machine, and I believe that they are in line for another world's cham- Saturday and Monday SPECIALS Delivery in City 5 cents LAMB - - 11c Shoulders Lamb - | Pork Chops - - Ih.
