FOB. tho first tlmo In 12 yenrs I lean Lenguo will bo reprcser tho Amor represented by a New York tenm which has pennant possi bilities Since Clark Orimth piloted the Ynnkecs In 1004 and kept tho team out In front throughout tho season until tho cham pionship was lost on tho last day of tho season, when Jack CheBbro uncorked a wild pitch, tho Highlanders liavo not been rep resented by a powerful team But this season tho loyal fans will bo rewarded by seeing a team of high class, even though It may not win the pennant It seemR certain that tho world's cham pion lied Sox and tho Chicago Whlto Sox will bo stronger than In 191U, while De troit may nlso liao strengthened, hut they will need to bo moro powerful If they expect to keep Bill Donovan's team from winning tho flag. A vetornn manager said nt tho recent meeting of tho American League In Now York 'Tho Yankees nro going to bo Just as strong as their manager." Situation Analyzed This rrmailc sizes tho chances for n pennant up to perfection. It Donovan can prove himself a steady, consistent and brainy lender, Now York has almost an oen chanco to win tho pennant In tho American League If ho loses control oer Ills team of stars, a few of whom nro known as temperamental, there is no tell ing how low the Yanks will finish. Tho lied Sox, Tlgors nnd Whlto Sox havo collected slugging teams, but thero Is really not ns much power or general of fensive strength In any team In Johnson's league as New York will have, If tho Btnrs recently purchased como anywhere near the mark they have set In tho past. Kow people believe Leo JIagee win bo ablo to hit within 30 points of his great Federal Leaguo average, but tho former Cardinal does not need to hit .300 to bo a star. Mngce Is of the type who will bo a stnr and tnvnluablo to his team If ho hits .270, which was his average mark when ho was with St. Louis. Baker and Gedeon Then thero Is Frank Baker and Joo Gedeon, the latter being the youngster who was wanted by 4lio Phillies, but who w.ib sold to the Ynnks by Harry Sinclair after he had Jumpd from Salt Lalto City to the Feds List fall. It Is a question whether the year's absence from tho game has dimmed Baker's batting eye, or If Gedeon Is really a mark for a curo ball, ns Pacific Coast Leaguers claim. Both men must como through In first class stylo to malto tho Highlanders n pen nant possibility. The other addition to tho team as a regular, Frank Gllhoolcy, of MOORE REPEATS K. 0.

Tho Bouthpaw welterweight duplicated tho feat pf iho "Kcwple," when the latter stopped Young Dlgglns in that time, by hanging tho crusher on K. O. Jack Farrell at tho Douglas Club last night. It was tho first Bhow sanctioned by Bobby Gunnls and tho spectators seemed to be pleased with tho bouts. Thirty-five seconds of tho opening round had ensued, when Mooro sent a terrific loft hbolc to Farroll's solar plexus, and tho latter sank to tho floor, where, writh ing In pain, ho rolled over and over until tho referee had tolled off 10. The contest started off In a hurrlcano mnnnor. Moore came from his corner with a tear, step ping nround Farrell seeking an opening. The latter, howover, outguessed Mooro for the first few moments.

Tho end wai decidedly unsatisfactory to everybody In the vicinity with tho exception of Ahearn and McKetrltk. In the earlypart of the fight It seemed a, certainty that Young Ahearn would bo knocked out. Chip sent Jacob to the mat trees for the count of Ave In the third round, and though Ahearn was boxing prettily It was 'evident that he could not last 10 rounds.

Donovan has ono of tho greatest pitch ers In tho gamo in Hay Caldwell, and Hay Fisher, tho Vermont schoolmaster, la not far behind. Caldwell did not do as well last season ns in 1014, hut Is certain to star with a team which has a chanco for tho pennant. Caldwell was one of tho major leaguo players who performed the "double-flip-flop" to tho Feds nnd back, and ho did not havo enough Interest in his work last year. Other Vcternna Thero are three other fairly good veter ans on the Ynnkco pitching staff, but asldo from Bob Shawkey, it Is not likely any of them will, do regular mound duty unless they show moro than they havo in tho past. Tho gcnoroslty of Owners Huston and Itupport has enabled Donovan to cor ral a great nrray of minor leaguo pitching talent In fact, tho Highlanders got nl most cvory high-priced minor leaguo twlrlcr who met with tho approval of Scout .Too Kclloy. In this group aro BUI Plercey nnd "Slim" Love, two highly touted south paws from tho Los Angeles Club of the Pacific Coast Leaguo; Dan Tipple, tho Indianapolis 510,000 beauty; Mogrldge, of Des Moines, another t,outh paw; Cliff Markle, of Waco, and "Dazzy" Vance, of St. Joseph. All of theso young sters made wonderful minor leaguo rec ords; they havo had plenty of experience, and It Is unreasonable to suppose that NOTES OF THE The Natlonnl howling nnuid of the Trug League nsserted Itself last night by outrolllng the Federals In all three games of their aeries pn fitnlnn iillejs National lends and bowled probublv In the best form of tho seu Hon, for not only did It win all threo gimes, but totaled 2737 pins It van a clever exhibi tion of team bowling Mooncy began tho series with a store of 257, ono of the best in any leaguo this jear, and concluded with 151 and 189. whllo Doctor Hhleldi, who rolled tho last two gomes, cracked out 160 and 217 scores.
