Cubs-Giants Feud Tale of Diamond’s Sharpest Rivalry H E dogged fight between the Cubs and Giants for the National league pennant this year is rem iniscent of bygone days when their fend was a tale of baseball’s sharp est and most enduring rivalry. The only difference is that while the competition is Just as keen this year, the bitterness is gone. T The story of the rivalry of the Cubs and Giants practically writes itself. It stretches far beyond the years of Mike Donlin and the one and only Matty. It embraces other hard-bitten Giants of the youthful 1900s bus-riding a brick tossed way from hotel to ball park to defend the baseball honor of the nation’s largest city. There are memories of lantern- jawed little Johnny Evers, thick muscled Frank Chance, shouting bitter taunts at fans tight-packed within old wooden grandstands. Once more you see Mordecai Brown, tobacco-flecked ball clutched within three fingers, warming up for the greater baseball glory of the nation’s second largest city. Pages could be written about other never-to-be-forgotten incidents of far off afternoons. Of happy years when the Giants merely knocked off the Dodgers (then Superbas) in their stride and saved their best hate and sharpest spikes for Chi cago invaders. You showed your colors then. E v ery man was an enemy and so re garded unless he could display the proper ribbon and could mingle dire Insult with high praise in correct proportion. Remember that glowing baseball year of 1908, when feelings were running at their fullest anyhow? Then Chicago baseball writers ar rived at the Polo Grounds early on one beat-waved afternoon to view with bitter astonishment a notice posted upon the press gate. Above the sprawling signature of a man who never hesitated to name his enemies it stated simply and starkly that, by order of John J. McGraw, no Chicago writers would be permit ted to enter the park.

Of course there’s no hint of syndicate hockey, but it’s a fact that Detroit’s Jim Norris owns the Red Wings, has a big piece of the Americans, controls the Chicago Stadium, home of the Black Hawks, and bolds stock in Madison Square Garden, which owns the Rangers, who in turn appar ently have taken good care of the younger Cook . . .

Their heirs, the Terrys, Grim m s, Hartnetts, Hubbells and Dem arees of today, seldom permit feelings to flow as violently for the sake of a mere ball game. Yet there Is a grim tensity about pres ent meetings just the same. So far this year the National league race has been a nip and tuck affair be tween the Cubs and Giants. There are other angles— Indeed far too many of them for this lim ited space—to this story which prac tically writes itself. Yet, as might have been mentioned at the start, I have been sitting here thinking about something else.
