DEHTOIT, Oct. 1. (AP) For three
more or less debatable reasons, not
necessarily confined to the baseball
"dope ' or succu
lent statistics, It
la this writer's
belief that the
Chicago CUbs
will beat the De
troit Tigers In a
I six - game world
series.
It Is fairly well
known by now
that the Cubs aro
"hottest" team
I In either major
league, fresh
from a 21 game
winning streak

and booming to-
first tha hlff ithnw
tmtoer terrific Impetus. With their
atreak ended, they may bo overdue
for a reaction, but they didn't let
down until they crushed the last re
sistance of the celebrated gas house
gang In St. Louis and knocked out
the Incredible Deans.
. Tciim icim(i High
Secondly, Chicago has a remarkably
young, aggressive club that Is geared
for high speed. It's an outfit that
might crack under presssure, but It
didn't against tougher opposition
than anything the American league
could offer the Tigers, It has noth
ing to lose and everything to gain
by shooting the works. No worries
about past performances or previous
disappointments will beset this out
fit. In abort, the Cubs act more like a
college football team than an aggre
gation of professional ball players.
Their attitude. Is in marked contrast
to that of the more experienced but
lens agile Tigers. '
They will enter the scries with the
same psychological hd vantage that
swept the 1000 White Sox, the famous
'billons wonders." and the youthful
1010 Athlctlcsa to victory over the
great Chicago Cubs of Prank Chance's
day; that carried the miraculous Bos
ton Bravca of 1014 to a sweep over
tho Athletics, and marked the dra
mutlc triumph of the 10H3 New York
Giants, spurred on by Ulondy Itynn,
over the Washington Senators.
Cubs On Crest
There's always an ultimate stumble,
but the crest of a. winning wave is
always a good spot and the Cubs
are on it now. Tho Tlgerss were un
able to break even in their last 36
games, winning 12 and losing 14.
The Cubs won 23 or their last 20.
Cochrane 'a crew may get caught In
the rush unless it snaps back to
mid-season form and drive.
Finally, and to be more specific It's
this writer s view that lanky Lonnle J
vvr.rneKe, Arannasas nvni oi vno ceiO'
brnted Schoolboy Rowe, will give the
Cubs a pitching edee. Warneke was
the best right-hander In either ma
jor lengue at the finish. His seventh
tinlght victory, a two-hit shutout of
the Cardinals last week, was a mas
terpiece, riowo hIko la a great "money"
pitcher. Their opening duel should
be one of tlw best in many years.
Great Hume Town Team
An even break for the Cuba In the
two pn mcs here, Wed nesdny a nd
Thursduy, would send them back to
thrive on the roars of the home-town
crowds at Wriuley Field for the neat
three engagements. A greet home
team, the Bruins might steam-roller
the Tliiers in Chicago. All things
ConMdercd. however, the warring
forces srem likely to reuirn to De
trint for a sixth game before the
payoff.
Laid end to end, the statistics do
not shed a great deal of light on the
rival priwpects. The Tigers have more
Ions-range guns with hitters like
Cochrane, Grhrlnger, Goslln and
Orrrnerg. The Cub attack, led by
the FMisntlonal Angle OAlan In the
Jeadnff spot, features Herman, Llnd-
atrom. Hartuett and Demaree. good
enough to keep n onr-tlme batting
king. C huck Klein on tie bench. Both
clubs topped their lengues In all
around hitting.
The Tigers look to have more of a
defensive than an offensive edge. The
Cuhs have a superior outfield, how
ver, and more capable reserves In
pluvcr like Klein, Stanbaerk and
EngttMh. N

Oabhy Hartuett Is the cleanup clout

force on t he field. He has had a
wonderful year. Similarly, Manager
Mickey Cochrane la the man behind
the Tiger guns. The strain of leader
ship haa not seemed to slow up his
playing ahlllty or affect ht batting
eye. A fighter of the old school,
Cochrane is generally conceded to be
the difference between a fourth-place
club and a, two-time pennant winner.!

and Rfiwe, tho pitching prospects are
difficult to forecast. The Cubs will

Badminton seems to be coming Into
Its own in southern Oregon.. For over
a year there has been a thriving club
In this city. Since about a year ago,
when a group of Seattle and Portland
players. In their way south, stopped
over for an exhibition game here,
which was attended by a group of
Grants Pass sportsmen, there has been
& rapidly growing club In the Cave
City. Now a second club, to be known
as the Medford Shulttle club, Is to
be formed here to take care of the
large number interested.
Badminton is a great game, and an
old one. We have never become pro
ficient enough in it to permit our
saying we play It at all, but we have
watched some of the beat In the gime.
Including Med ford's own Hamilton
Law. Law la rated as the amateur
champion of the aelfic coast, and
according to Jess WIDard. the pro
fessional champ, there Isn't an araa-
vi f niii., i.
highest kind of compliment, for he
should know. In their exhibition
games here last spring. Wills rd ad
mitted that Ham pushed him harder
than had anyone he had played since
the professional tournament the win
ter before.
If Interest In the game progresses
as rapidly here In the next year aa It
has In the past, Medford will be one
of the most active badminton cen
ters on the coast, and with the effic
ient officers on the Medford Badmin
ton club. It is altogether possible that
state, and possibly even coast, tour
namenta will be played here In the
future.
Another game wo'd like to see take
more of a popular -hold In Medford
Is table tennis, the outgrowth of the
old game of ping-pong. It Is mildly
surprising the contempt with which
this gamfc la regarded by many, most
ly those who never participated In.
nor saw a game. The game of ping
pong, as lt name would imply, was
something of a prissy affair. The ball
was served directly over the net. and
then amid shrieks of merriment, the
game went on In high arcs, with
enough time allowed between shot
to go out and finish that last high
ball. That's all changed now. The ball
is no longer served over the net, but
Into the table, and It must bounce
over the net to be called In play.
And he who would be a gosd table
tennis player had best forget any
Klssy leanings, for the game Is fast
and furious. Seldom docs the ball
clenr the net by more than a half
inch, the parabola must be almost
flat or the opponent will kill your
offerings with sickening regularity,
and the rapid click, click, click of
bats sound like the rattling ot hail
stones against a roof, it Is so swift.
Fred Perry, the English tennis flash,
learned hi tennis strategy on the
tables. He was at first plng-potu
champlon of England, then took uu
table tennU. When In New York aev.
era! years ago, to participate In table
tennla tournamenta, his coordination
of eye and hand was so obviously
superb, that hundreds asked him to
take up tennla. Which he did. with
remarkable aucceaa. as you know.
And you al&o know that very few
would be so foolish sa to accuse Perry
of being a sissy.
A few years ago the men of Med
ford got most of their athletic diver
sion In talking about the football
that was being played by someone
else. Now they have badminton, table
tennis and bowling, and of the three,
bowling at the present time probably
offers the most enjoyment to the most
men through the winter months.
There are between ISO and 200 men
who are playing nearly every week at
the Elka' club and at the Smokehouse
alleys.
None of the three games are re
stricted to the males of the species,
however. There are between 23 and
50 women who bowl regularly through
out the winter, and their adroitness
with the heavy balls Is surprising.
About 50 women actively play bad
I mlntrm alaui anrf I 1st n1 V. i..v
of facilities that keeps them from
getting Interested In table tennis.
- So we find Medford coming more
and more to the front In games that
all can play. It's a healthy sign, and
one to be encouraged.

PORTLAND, Oct. 1. (Jpf The
position of manager of the Portland
baseball club of the Pacific Coast
league was more or less on the block
today.
Bill Clssell, second basemen and

negotiations were entirely off between
him and Owner E. J. Sohefter over

"MYSELF and ME"
"Im the best pal I ever had;
We never have a fuss;
We like to sit and talk about
What's best for both of us."
Adapted
Come to think of it, haven't we all dual selves? . . . One
to acquire and one to bestow; one to work and one to
play; one self to provide what the other self needs.
It isn't selfishness to think about yourself. It isn't
arrogance to take pride in your appearance. It isn't
egotism to strive to impress others. It's just good sense
in the direction of self-progress especially in business.
So, tell You to give You more consideration. Spruce
up! This is the season to buy new clothes. And the surest
way to get the best styles and values is to "shop" thru
the advertisements in this newspaper because:
The merchants and manufacturers who thus put their
wares on exhibition and their prices in black-and-white
cannot afford to risk their reputations by making ex
travagant claims for doubtful merchandise. Read and
trust the advertisements. They'll help you find what
you want and save money!
