Tho faces present, as a matter of fttet, will luok like a new layout 'foi many of tho upper baseball olns. A glance Into the at my and nay would locate many of the pia.vers who last yonr were anions those present. Tho pennant hunt In tho 191S season appears from ft long dlKtanco Klanco to bo just as much of n guess n It viai n year ajo. Ti misters that havo been made during tho winter, while benclltlng ome elube nnd lajlng Injury on othctg, nevertheless le.no u balance In both Ms leagues that hould mako tho dash from barrier to the finish n hot one. In tho minds of most fans, of comse, theie will bo a spark of favoritism for tho Whlto Poi: in tho American Lcaguo and for tlia Olants in tho Na tional League. Just ns In puglllrm. baobaH in prono to string along with the old champion until tho nwduit hai been kicked out of Its doll. But thcro ien't a thing certain In lnebnll. Tho lata Harry l'ulllam mado famous tho remark. 'T.-iko nothing for granted hi baseball." There aro clubs in cither league which, If given the light start, kept fico of In juries and allow od to proceed at ati even ikico down the Hold, would be fully capablo of getting under the wire lit it I2CJUHIUS to this or that club might Intervene. Some star might crack and leave a void that could not bo filled. Top-Notch Club Must Be Smooth-Running Machine THE top-notch baseball club, ns a matter of course, must be it tnioothl running machine. It must hac no dissension; It3 plajer3 must be friendly and willing to pull together at ull tlnie.v. If theio Is a bnheball cluli not possessing theso attribute.", no matter how strong Its potential ability may make it look, lay a few shekels that It vtnnot finish ahead. Jlcrc gray matter, ability to knock baseballs ocr fences and to Held like domons. all are swept aIde when the woiry of grieved fellings creeps into a base ball club. Happily, dissension has been eltlve'n out of molt clubs In tho bis loaguos, with greatest emphasis laid on the llrst division gangs. Thtro was' a tlmo not so very long ago whin things wero not going overly nicely nmong clubs that had been picked to w In pennants, and for that reason thoy wcro left in tho rear. It's called temperament In -uino quarters, but tho real definition for tho trouble-maker on a baseball club Is "no good." Chicago Is going to have -omothlng to tny about both pennants. St Louis cannot bo counted out of tho National Loaguo first division and no more can tho lteds. The Dodgers and Ur.ivo3 have added strength. The Pliatcs, while stronger tlian u year ago. still look Hko n bad ball club. Thi Phillies without A!oander, Killefer and liixcy have bright prospects and with the new talent the club should be In tlio running. CLUVULAXD will nut bo nolo to present so strong an una) this j ear. Jloston lias been bti tiwtliuurtl -omo in tho American League and tho National Lcaguo clubs look cheerier. Tho Yanks, with a now manager, may stmt nil ovet.

Ilo Muit in mldseason last year because etf the tori Id weather in tho Mound City and alto because of somo run-ins with l'lelder Jonos.

According to tho ttcoids this raro specimen of sport humanity is lkibo Ruth, tho Red Rox heaver, who throush tho run of thrco jcars In ii bis leaguo uniform is entitled to a placo in tho hitting hall of fnino nt a fraction abovo tho minimum rpuallfjins limit. His repcctho batting minks are SI 3, .272 and ,32C. During hts American Lcaguo career the pounding huilcr has. plajed in 1C8 ganies, has batted 2G1 times, scored 49 iuns, mado 109 hits and sacrificed 13 times. His bis drive collection Includes 22 doubles, 7 tliploa and 9 homo runs. HIh four-bagger off 15111 James on August 10 last Is guaranteed to havo been tho genuine, bona fldo and txcluslvo "longest lilt of the season." Tho ball went Into "tho center Hold bloachcrs at Boston. Tho American League was crowdod with pitchers who could hit last season. Among thoso who tho records show didn't hao to step asldu as weaklings when a uwat was demanded wero tho two Russells, of Now York and Chicago; Maje, Cunningham, K. 31jcrs, Caldwell, Hhmko nnd Uagby. Of these, Caldwoll and JJagby aro good pinch men and hard hitters, al though their averages aro not as high as somo others. Uuscll, of tho "jankees, hit .313, standing next to Ruth, whllo his uamosuko of tho AVhlto hox barely missed .300, being only ono point under that figure. Only four lw-irlers In tho National showed any ability with tho willow, accoidlng to tao figures. Theso wero Jlitclioll, Hondrix, Cadoro and Ramos. As a 1unch thoy do not class with their American confitres. BUT If the big Rostoii southpaw must bo cluissed as a freak pei fonner on nccount of his ability to consistently hit In .300 bocloty, ho jet Is altogether consistent ns a pitoher In ono loupcct. lie has jet to steal his llrst baso as a big league player. Guncraft and Not Flying Hobey Baker's Forte AN INTERESTING story and comparison aio offered in tho careeia-of tho XX first two American nviatorH flying under United Statin colors to be brovotted from the lilghest avlutlon schools of Tranco. Tho two men aro old palsHobcy Raker, tho l'llncetuii gridiron nnd. In college and out, ico hockey wonder, and Edwin Vost. Jr.. of New York. Tho pair havo been pals from boyhood, attended school together, loomed together and now nro jllng sldo by sido in tho dlsay heights, courting death every instant, in tho cauio of their country and Its allies. Roller's already acquired celebrity as a flyer, augmentod by his recently reported feat of bringing down Ills Hun In his first air encounter, rests, it is said, not upon Iiisi Hying ability. Ills sldo-klck I'ost excels him In this featuro of the game, it Is said. Fost is un automobile cnglueer and has toe. advantage of mechanical knowledge and training over his companion of the clouds. Ho is pronounced much better In this department. It is in gunnery that Hobey excels. His marksmanship is pronounced uncanny. Xi it Minted that'hls record in hits hns boon wondetful and altogether as tunneling to his French teaohers. When It is recalled that there are thousands upon thousands of young American college athletic stars In ovory branch ot Unolo Sam's service and that Jlobey Raker is only a good sample of what American trained uvea, nerves, hand" and biains can show in fighting, some concrete Idea of American fighting effectiveness is had.
