I'.J AJiong distance s'lot at tne world's scries entrants appears to he writer to invvUe Cm- Cincinnati has the. National league team that figures to win the pennant in the Tener league, and the Whit Sox look good to re peat in the American. ! On just one thing hinges the chances for the Reds to kick history and precedent into a cocked hatjiand get into a world's se ries for the first time in the history of tjae fall classic. That one thing is Christy Mathewson's ability to keep his pitching staff in trim and develop a couple of youngsters who can stand the National league pace in only a fair sort of way. Last year Matty showed his abil ity with pitchers by bringing out Clarence Reagan. He has evi bet ter material ' ta work with this year. The result should be a pen nant.' Matty has the best outfield in the National league. Has Two of Ret He has Hal Chase at first Base and Heinle Groh at third, two of the best infielders In the league. He has' young Kopf, a fair ball- - player, to Station at shortstop, pro vided Kopf decides to report, and the chances aro he will start the season with Lee Magee at second base. Lena Blackburn probably will tart at shortstop. The heavy fire of Chase and Groh, however, should offset this weakness. A good field ing shortstop can do wonders in an infield where he has backing, by hit ting among other members. In addition to them defenses, Matty possesses one of the smartest catchers in baseball In Tom Clarke, and one of the best hitting catchers in Ivy Wingo. The latter needs a lot Of work. If he gets tt this year he will do better1 than for the dast two seasons. Should DeTelop Youngsters With Schneider. EUer and Keagan to bear the heavy pitching burden, at least two youngsters should sail into prominence with Mathewson's coaching. Bresaler and Conley are capable recruits, each with big league experience. Matty should have no trouble In whipping them into shape. Dutclf Reuther, splen did utility man, may show some of the stuff that caused experts to predict a star Career for him as a pitcher a year ago when ha went up to the Cubs. This team has the punch the abil ity to get men on bases and push them around for runs. They -should "win. unless accidents break up their combination. White' Sox Hare One Itlral As for the White Sox, it has been aid. for the most part. They have : only one dangerous rival in th American league, and that Is Bos ton. But tho Red Sox, made up of players who have been filled-In dur- Ing the winter, should not be expect ed to hit a stiff enough pace to carry it to a pennant over the tough going that Is surely to develop in the younger circuit. Clarence Rowland's pitching staff is intact. His Infield hasn't lost a , single cog, and his outfield stands where it left off. last. year. Team Ha the Heart There is playing sense, punch and defensive greatness- in this team and It has the heart. The combina tion is hard to beat. If the Red Sox achieve it. they will be entitled to the glory, for the White Sox appear SPOKANE. WASH, April 12. The M. L.

Old Jack Pow ell, the pitcher, who Is almost as old .as Cy Young, who is 52. got a lot of publicity ' on account of his re ported ambition to reshine as a member of the St. Louis Browns. The old-timer went to training camp and still is there, but it now is said that his effort was for ad vertising chiefly, the idea being to ' boost his "wet goods" emporium with St. Looie fans. Big List I Boss Fide The bona-flde list includes, in ad dition to those mentioned. Big Ed Walsh, Big Bill James, Rube Old ring, Jimmy Archer, Smoky Joe Wood, Wild Bill Donovan, Lefty Lelfield. Ray . Demmitt and Bob Harmon, and there are Others, in cluding Grover Lowdermilk, who, although not an old-timer, has been bobbing up and down for several seasons, awaiting somebody who could tame him. Big Ed Walsh has caught on again with his old manager. Fielder Jones, for whom he pulled through some notable championships as iron man for the hitless White Sox. This move might have been gratitude, for the great hurler has been turned down by big-leagua managers gen erally. It is said that he will get a real tryout in addition to working as pitching coach. Coming Back From the Farm As is well known. Rube Oldiing returns from the family farm to his old love, C. Mack. Bill James does likewise in his move to get back into ' the Braves' pitching cast. Jimmy Archer will coach and get a catching trial with the Pirates, while Ssnoky Joe Wood will stage a return to -fast society with Cleve land. Bob Harmon will be back from the Louisiana ranch as . a . Pirate, and Grover LQWdermilk will be in a like position in the middle of the diamond with th lowly Browns. Christy Mathewson has stated that he expected to pitch some this .season, and if the old wizard returns to .the pitching game he will at least, as ntanager, have a good drawing card. Bill Donovan likewise lias been hinted as an ac- . tive possibility by Hughie Jennings. SHOW THIS CARD TO KAISER BILLY If S. S.
