That the Pirates are masters of the league is indicated by the fact that they tnrhed back the Giants five out of the first seven games. Four of those five defeats were administered In a row. : It looks tough for John J. Mc- Graw right now. i Speaking of, the Giants. Last year, when they needed one more game to win the pennant -for the fourth consecutive year, they ham mered Jimmy Ring, ace of the lot . This year they apparently still have Jimmy's number. " He managed to win one game out of the first five hurled. against them. Jack Bentiey bested him the first time.

IhROWX The Cleveland Indians today are a badly shattered ball club. The team that - won ' the American league pennant and the world's championship in 1920 with one or the best ball clubs of modern time--5- club that played heads up ball, win, lose or draw; that presented a powerful attack and a beautiful defence Jn the box and afield, and that fought to the last ditch. Is now wallowing around in the American league race, sadly In need of considerable overhauling and strengthening. ' , Latest averages ehow the team ranking sixth in batting strength and seventh In fielding. OTour eyes grow weary before you reach the names of any Cleveland pitchers in the winning averages. The team reeds pitchers.; It needs a good catcher. It needs in fielders. It "needs hitting strength. But most of all it needs the bat tery men. . j And right here ie where the rub 'comes.'' '' v '- ' Two years ago the club had a couple of likely looking catchers in Luke Sewell and Glenn Myatt. Neither had big le.'.sre experience. Sewell, a brother of Joey, had lit tle professional experience. 'The club bosses, however, decided that in one of these - men they yould find a star. , They-forthwith used Steve O' Neill, Ray Schalk's only rival for catching honors in the American 1c: gue, for trading material. The club needed a first baseman. Man ager, Speaker, always an admirer of. George Burns, decided he was the man needed. So a deal wad cooked up that sent O'Neill and Rill Wambsganns, second sackcr, to the Red Sox for Burns and A1 Walters," a fair mechanical catch er. ; ; , " "- ', . . - .:.'. .' Wamby was allowed to depart because he wasn't popular with the' fans. He ranked as one of the' best second "basemen in the game and still does, in my esti mation.

To the man In the stands It looked . aa though - the team didn't give its best behind Covey. So a deal was framed with Wash ington wherehy the champions ac quired Coveleskie tor Byrcn Speece, .a young hurler, and Carl?i Smith, a rookie outfielder. . Smith was farmed out. Speece is still tryiqg toftnd himself. Now both Coveleskie- and O'-i Neill could help the' Indians bs they are today. Coveleskie ha won more games for the Senators than any of the vets remaining with the Indiana. ' This despite the fact that Harris has plenty of good pitchers and isn't! forced tq call on Coveleskie regularly. . -O'Neill may be lacking In hit ting this season, but he still has his brains.
