The San Francisco Seals, third in the list, and four games behind the leading Hollywood Stars, have opportunity to pull up a notch, and perhaps tie for top. The Seals take on Seattle at San Francisco this week. Seattle, dur ing the past two weeks, has won enly two out of 14 ball games, and uplfss the Indians show more base ball, the Seals are almost a cinch to even things with Loa Angeles, whom they are following by two games, and possibly top the Angels. The Indians are in the cellar. Angel Play Dncks Los Angeles plays the Portland Ducks at Los Angeles. Portland is next to the bottom, and unless the depe- is upset, the strong Angels are expected to take this series.

Could Associated Press Sports Editor) One of the few remarks Bill Terry ever has been heard to make before witnesses and fcr publication was: I can hit." The reccrds prove this a modest remark, but the great first baseman of the New York Giants can do a lot of other things and do them well. He can field with a brilliance of Hal Those. He can run. He can and does think, despite the srmewhat prevalent notion that when there is any thinking to be done for vhe Giants. John McGraw will do it. Just now Memphis Bill has opened up with all the hitting ammunition at his command' In the battle with Klein and O'DouU the Philiie flog gers. for the National League batting crown. Terrc causht up with and passed his rivals for the first time on August 5. when be coilecied five hits off Brcc-klyn pitching in tbe final game , cf tne crucial combat at Eobets Field. He has been hitting harder and ; umelier this vear than ever before, t ! Terry ts distinctly a product of the McGraw school. He was picked, trained and ccached by the old mas ter before being c:ven the first base assignment cutnght three years ago. scuia mase gooa as a regular inai be unhestta-ingly let tbe veteran Gecrge Kelly go to Cincinnati.
