10 WILL WIN THE
'S
Balance Is the Matching of Powerful
Hitters Against Powerful
Pitchers
IBY H. C. HAMILTON
(United P.iess Staff Correspondent)
New York, Aug. 29. (If Boston
wins the American league pennant,
ball followers in the east believe
John McGraw iwill have to wait for
his second world's championship. But,
if Chicago snares the Johnson flag,
they deduce, Charles Oomiskey will
have to wait for his fecond world's
championship.
At the same time it is the feeling
that the Red Sox have skidded and
tho White Sox gained some strength.
The difference between the two clubs
now, it is generally asserted, is very
closa
The answer is generally held out
that the Red Sox are made up more
closely as a unit of playing 'strength,
whereas they are inclined to charge the
Chicagoans with dull baseball at
tunes.. ... ... ,. . ... . ...... . .
The balance in a world's series will
have to be a matching of powerful,
National league hittf ng against pow
erful American league pitching.
In the past it has been pretty
thoroughly demonstrated that power
ful pitching carries the edge in a short
series. Witness the startling success
of the Braves in 1914, (he follow'jig
success of the Red Sox against th
Phillies in 1915 and the Dodgers in
1910. Athletics, Dodgers and Phil
lies were noted for tihaii- terrible h!t-'
ting, but the star heavers of the op
posing clubs were fully competent to
put over the necessary victories.
With that us a precedent it is in
dicated that the Giants hardly would
win agai'nst. either the White Sox or
Red Sox, but then comes the question
of how much more effirient are the
American league hurlers than the
mounds men Manager McGraw has
gathered around him.
It has been proven the White Sox
are greatly handicapped when against
southpaw hurling, and it is from this
angle that McGraw ha built up It's
greatest pitching defense. Schupp,
Sailee and Benton, the most success
ful New York gunners, work with
their off-hands. Whether they would
be able to offset the efforts of Fabcr,
Cicotte, Williams and Russell is tho
point from where arguments will
start. The Giant trio of southpaw
stars isnrt figured as strong as Ruth,
Shore, Mays and Foster.
Chronic Constipation
It is by no means an easy matter to
euro this disease, but it can bo done
in most instance by taking Chamber
lain's Tablets and complying with the
plain printed directions that accomp
any each package.

HITTING PIFGHERSARE BE-
' . 'BY H. C. HAMILTON
(United Press iStaff Correspondent)
Now York, Aug. 29. Pitchers who
not only are wiling to hit, but who
can take a crack at a baseball with
some of the best of hitters, are becom
ing more frequent in the major
leagues.
Time was a short time ago, when
pitchers carried a bat to the pinto
merely because it was done, and a
time at bat had to be there.
Now there are eight pitchors in
the American league who are batting
.250 or better and in the National
league there are ten.
Babe Ruth of the Red Sox is the
best sticker of the pt'tchcrs in either
league, but Dutch Reuther, Cincin
nati, Walter Johnson, Reb Russell and
' Ray Caldwell are considered excellent
batsmen. Any one of them is likely
to be called out to do pinch hitting for
his club. '
Larry Cheney of the Podgers is a
j good hitter. Dick Rudolph of the
I Braves never shirks a time at bat,' am",
he has a team mate of the same sort
in George Tyler. Sherrod Smith of
, the Dodgers would rathi-.r win a game
with a hit than by a steller pitching
pcrf ormance. Grover Alexander is
'considered a dangerous batsman.
Nearly all the Yankee pitchers1 are
good hitters. George Mogridge and
i Ray Caldwell perhaps are the best,
I but Al Russell has outhit both of
j them this year. Claude Hendrix of
the Cubs is respected by pitchers a: a
hard, Inn;; hittei o:'.e v'io is just as
( likely to knock a basclj.dl out of tho
lot us not. Mil V.'clfgang ol the
WhHe Sox, although small, han.plcn
, ty of courage at bat and makes liis
hits.
J Jack Coombs' hitting is an assrt
j added to Irs pitching ability. Clar
ence Mitchell of the Rods not only call
pitch a good game, but ho can out
field or play first base' and gets his
regular safe ones.
There are plenty of others perhaps
more of the hitting kind of pitchers
: than tho game ever knew before.
Summer Complaint
During the hot weather of tho sum
mer months some member of almost
! every family is likely to be troubled
with an unusual looseness of the
bowels, and it is of the greatest im
portance that this be treated prompt
ly, which can only bo done when the
l medicine is kept at hand. Mrs. F. F.
Scott, Scottsville, N. Y., states, "I
first used Chamberlain's Colic and
Diarrhoea Remedy as much as five
years ago. At that time I had a se
vere attack of summer complaint and
was suffering intense pain. One dose
' relieved me. Other members of my
family have since used it with like
, results."
