Some pre- dict that the Athletics will be 2 to 1 on Friday, while others appear to think the desire to bet on the Braves will bring the odds down to almost even money. One of the most surprising opinions on the outcome of the series is that of Clarke Griffith, ma: Washington club, who Braves will win. He bases this on the theory that the impetus of their spurt through the National League will carry them right on through to the world’s championship. Three weeks ago Connie Mack, while discussing the outlook in the National League, declared it his be- lief that the Bruves couldn't he stopped because they had been win- ning consistently too long. “A club that can do what they have done,” he said, “can beat anybody and form won't cut any figure.” When Mack said that he didn't realize club was going to play the ‘angely enough, since the! hasn't declared the Athleti So far he has held his opinion in reserve, The most amusing handicap, this prophesying busine: Johnson and Gov, T the American Leagu: and Gov.
