| Show p maw C e vow nw york tork pont service yanks are tops but giants rate medal for valor PLENTY of people will tell you r that the world champion yankees are going to stay on the top of the baseN baseball heap for some years to come like their predecessors s of the ruthian age and it looks as though plenty of people are arc going 7 to 0 be right the boys from the yankee stadium are young and healthy ther theres es hardly a creak in a carload of them AN the only spot where age insurance might be in order for joe mccarthy is at second base and even the supposedly fading A jk in w tony lazzeri drove in runs A during the american league season and had a batting joe mccarthy average of in the world series he handled 30 fielding chances wit without hout a bobble while his series batting average was a pallid he can grin when he remembers that bases loaded homer only lou gehrig and bill dickey among the other regulars are older than twenty eight dickey is a year under thirty while lou tops that age by three years of the pitchers ruffing and hadley are thirty two pearson twenty seven gomez awen ty six and fordham johnny murphy whose pitching stopped the G giants in the last game and who should be a 20 game winner in 37 is twenty eight so the yanks can give old man alan time a race for his mazuma tor for a few years at least incidentally marse joe have to be ashamed of the trades he made mad e last winter when he decided to strengthen his club lie ile picked up jake powell and bump hadley from the washington club and monte alonte pearson from cleveland how would the yanks have looked in the world series without them but on the other hand the vanquished giants need a lot of overhauling last june owner stoneham said they do but the rest of the league by being woe woefully fully weak made a liar out of him he cant take a chance with the truth another year though some so called prognosticators go 90 so far as to say that in m their present condition the giants will be lucky to finish in the first division next year that five run yankee blast off fitzsimmons in the final game proved he needs plenty of rest A bety bet veer eel starts hell be thirty six next year and hubbel thirty four manager r bill terry is playing bill terry on borrowed time so is travis jackson sam lesliea Le future is a question the club will need more secondary pitching and some additional extra base punch somewhere in the lineup while the praise for the world series is being handed out though dont overlook the giants the they y did la i a magnificent job considering what they had to work with colonel bill terry battled as desperately for a lost cause as did that ancestor who fought for the confederacy 7 on paper the giants were woefully outclassed by the yankees just as they were supposedly out classed by two clubs in their own league the cubs and cardinals but they made a daring start by winning the opening game behind hub i bets bels pitching then in the next they were treated to a drubbing the like of which has never before been seen in a world series almost any other club would have giyen given up but what happened the giants came ame up with a swell 2 garni game by fred fitzsimmons and were out lucked lacked in losing the third game game I 1 found mccarthy starting his best bet monte alonte pearson who fairly out pitched and won from that left one cameto game to go for the yanks to sweep the series even that stop the giants terry rallied his veterans and behind the lionhearted lion hearted pitching of hal schumacher won the fifth game the yanks figure out how they did it in the sixth and final game for or seven innings the giants withstood an early display of yank power which would have been enough to stop almost any one else cold they were right in the thick of the argument in the interests of efficiency terry made all the shifts the book called for but in the jimh the giants were stopped by fordham johnny murphy NOT IN THE
