A critic who should know what he is tnlklng about said the other dny that he had seen every game played between Cleveland and New York this year and the Yanks didn't win one.

In the olden dnys the Olympiads were the greatest event in tho world. They were tht foundation of .the life and empires of nncient Greece nnd Rome, nnd mndn possible the triumph of Greece over Asln. nnd of Rome over the world. They were of paramount importance. This was further increased by the solemnity which attended them, nnd especinlly by the fact that the Grecian method of reckoning time was bused upon them and their regulnr occur rence. Started 770 I!.C. Tho Greek iden was thnt .the body ot men hnd a glory ns well ns the intellect nnd spirit. They rented thnt the vital ity nnd strength of the individual body was the base of the vitality nnd strength of tlie state. The empires of Greece nnd Rome lasted only ns long as the Olympic Gnmes no longer. The Olympic Gnmes were first held in 77(1 B. C. The name comes from the site on which iney were nem tuympin in . F.lis. not u city, but n smnil plain in the district of Pisntis, nearly surrounded bv ; lofty hills nnd bounded on the south by tho Riier Alplieus. On this plnin was the snered grove, called Altis. supposed ' to have been laid out by Hercules. It wns adorned with beautiful structures , and works of art, altars, Matties nnd monuments in great number, including ' the Temple of Zeus. This temple housed the most magnificent production of Hellenic ait. tlie chryselephantine statue of Zeus by Phidias. The games were held nt intervals usiinlly evciy four yenrs nnd continued almost without interruption until A. I). .'ill.'l. At first the gumes consisted of n single foot race, hut gradually other cwMits were added until tiie games' greatly resembled cur western field i meets nuil lasted about five days. Only free-born Greeks of good char- ncicr were allowed to compete. Kvery contestant had to undergo nt lenst ten months trnlning. The participants competed naked. If the nation was at wnr n "merer! truce was declared to allow tho at tendance of the athletes und spcetntors. No women were allowed.

For this reason Tris Speaker is by nil odds the most vnlunblo ball plnyer in the game todnyj Cleveland hasn't won the pennnnt yot, but the finger of fate Is beginning to point directly to that result. Speaker ns n winning manager, the game's greatest outfielder nnd the game s leading batsman, rounds out n combination which HftR him far be yond nil competition. The throne room belongs to him alone. Other Manager Stars JOHN McGRAW nnd Connie Mnck y collected most of their pennants from the bench. But there have been other managerinl Mars who operated from the firing line. L he two best that wo recall were Frank Chnnee nnd Fred Clnrke. Chance wns n grent first baseman and n "nc hitter. Clarke wns n brilliant outfielder nnd equnlly robust nt the bat. rhey were n flair of birds of great value. But neither wns ris grent n stnr In his position ns Hpeuker Is, and neither could range with Speaker into .400 byways of swat. therefore. If Speaker wins the pen I nont and lends the league nt bat this season he reaches the highest point iu , all-around baseball efficiency thnt nnv player has ever known since the davs of Cap Anson. About Timing Again i miIERE is u moment." savs Teddv J- Pell, "when a tennis ball seems 1" Hpi 'n the nir. That's the time to hit It." "When I ii m hitting well." remarked ft well-known major leaguer recently. I can sec the ball nlmost stop in front of tlie plate. I wait until that moment comes oeiorc I let fly. ' One of the mnin 'secrets of timing Is I to wnlt on the stroke, whether It be nt j baseball, golf or tennis. '''is seems to be n restless, nervous i nge. There is always n tendency to hit too soon to put the punch in before the 1 time arrives. I Those who are In batting, swinging lennis piav nre rarely wnitine on their shots. The desire to nail one runs from tlie brnin to tlie nervous system or to the musculnr hnbitnts abend of time and tho result is failure. A man might wait too long.' but nine mistnkes out of ten nrc made the other wny. Up to tho West UNLESS the Dodgers nnd the Giants nrc stopped abruptly upon this last western trip the next Natlonnl League pennant is coming Fast for the first time In three years. The Cubs predominated in 1018 nnd tho Reds in Mil). They were the only western clubs to win since the old Cubs I turned the trick iu 1010. Cleveland and Chlcugo nre looking nfter western interests in the American Lenguo with telling effect, but the Enst, with Brooklyn nnd New York, still hns n good chnnee to mnke the next world series nn intersectionnl nffnlr. So far there have been sixteen world series played. Of these only four have brought nbout an intersectionnl upheaval.
