t NYTHINO Is likely to happen In the American L jnie this "nnn. Two
J- clubs stnnd out n the pennant contenders In the early dope, but any one
of the other six entries might put on a winning streak, show n startling
reversal of form, Jump out In the lend and cause a lot ot excitement. Tor the
flrst time In years the .Tohneon circuit Is what one mljrht call uncertain. There
re dark horses galore and the race should be Interesting.
? Right now, however, before any games have been played and the training
teason Is still on, Cleveland looksNIkc the best ball club In the league. This
probably sounds strange and unusual when the New York Yankees, with their
star nt.letes. also arc among those present, but from where we nrc sitting the
Yank look like second place.
Vunny thing about this Gotham aggregation Is that the other clubs don t
how any ear or trembling when the name U mentioned. Vive of the other
enibs saj they will bent them out, despite the heavy hitters and good pitching.
Still tho Yanks cannot be treated lightly. If Baker Is at third; I'cokin
paugh, short; Ward, second: Pipp or Meucl, first; Schang, catcher, and the
outfield consisting of llodie, Ruth and Roth, Muggins has one of the greatest
hitting ball clubs ever put together. His pitching ulso is good, with Mays,
Hoyt, Shawkcy, Collins, Qulnn, Vlercy and Harper to do the work.
o:
k.V PAPER, this club should win. but championship seldom are
r .llArA in itint manner. Am one mannacr nut it: "The ttnm nM
... . . ..
a great attacK ana can nammrr mr uun, mr yummy m yro ,,.
there is no kick about the catching. Hitting and pitching arc tho
most important things in the game. But they will not alieavs inn.
Tho Yanks arc too slow, the fielding too uncertain and the fearn Is
likely to crack and fall in a slump when least expected. 1 am figuring
on that slump."
Forecast of Race
TnB way the American League looks now, after a visit to nil of tho
training camps and seeing each club In notion, is as follows:
lCttTelam! 2 ?-rlt-
2Ne- York. C-",.I?0.,!
4 Wnehlneton. 8 White Soi.
Cleveland looks the best because it won the pennant last year after n
Yery tough battle, and the same Ilno-up will bo In thp field this season. That's
one reason; another is that the nlajcrs arc not all swelled up over their victory
In the world's series, ami instend of telling ndmirlug nudlenccs how good they
re, they have been working quietly and faithfully to get Into condition as if
Bothing out of the ordinary had happened.
, Trls Speaker Is responsible for this, lie has maintained perfect discipline,
lept the players on their toes and never has let up on the work. Instead cf
allowing them to rest on their laurels, he has them laboring to win new ones.
It Is said that Cleveland will have a hnrd time of It Doeausc the other
dobs will fight in every game, and-thn schedule will be a strenuous one. This
to true, but how about last year? The Indians were picked to win the flag,
and It was tough sledding from the start. They showed the proper spirit In
making every game a hard one and never admitted defeat. This year it will
be more of the same, and If the pitchers come through, Cleveland has the edge
ia the pennant race.
i St. Louis ranks third becauso of the outfield, which consists of Tobln,
Jacobson, 'Williams and n couple of likely looking kids, and the infield with
Sisler, Gcrbcr and Earl Smith on the job. Second base was open, but Kid
Gleaion peems to have filled the bill. Shocker, Davis, Baync, Dcberry and a
fcw rookies aro expected to do well.
&- However, with a man like Sisler on the club and a conservative manager
Jtke Kohl, the Browns might develop into one of those dark horses. They should
jet off to an early start.
llTABHIXGTOy alio w uncrrfoln, but Clark Griffith says he will
ft tein the pennant if Walter Johnson's arm is st"ong enough to
win his usual twenty-five ball games. The team is evenly balanced
and will be dangerous.
Scramble in Second Division
flUlLHE is a mau scramble In the fcecond division. Nobody can tell what
JL will happen. Detroit Is placed fifth because of tho many veterans, the
sew spirit and the new manager, Tyros Raymond Cobb. Ty is anxious to
make good and will work his bead off to accomplish (.omcthlng. He has the
players, and if they get off to a good start thpy will be well dp in the race.
If Mclnnis reports to Boston the Red Sox will huve n pretty fair ball club,
with "Stuffy" on first; Pratt, second; Scott, bhort, and Vitt, third; and
Menoskey, Llebold and Collins In the outfield. The pitching is fair, tin- catch
eg cone too strong, but the club, with Mclnnis, will make the other teams
hustle.
Connie Mack has been promoted to seventh place. lie has a nico-looklng
ball club this year and Is likely to do Eorathlng. lie Is standlug pat on last
Tear's line-up, and while first base tjd shortstop could be strengthened, the
weakness Is not so bad as It might be. Cotiuie hns one of the best catchers
in the league In Terklns, and his pitching staff is second to none. After linger
lag in the cellar for six years it looks as if the Athletics would get out in tho
nllght.
'pUJ! White Box, all torn and ragged, are awarded last place.
Btarting the season icith one catcher, ttca pitchers, one inficlier
and two outfielders, Qlcason had to picfc virtually a new team from the
minors. It is an experiment, and xehile eiery one wishes him suo
cess, it it doubtful if the team gets any place this year.

ANOTHER FIGHT OFFER
Montreal Business Men Seek Oppor
tunlty to Meet Rlckard
New YorI, April 1. Although Tex
Richard hns made it known that he will
announce the cite for the proposed
Dcmpbcy-Cnrpentlcr fight on April 0,
he is still receiving ofTcrs and proposals
from syndicates and cities who desire to
stago the title bout.
An Inference in some of the news
parers that the fight would posithely be
held in Uie United States brought forth
nn urgent request yesterday from a syn
dicate of Montreal business men, who
oked Rickard to hold off naming the
site until they had had an opportunity
to get into conference with him
They hud apparently gained the im
prepslon that no offers from foreign
countries would be further considered.
The menage received yesterday from
Montreal stated thut a committee rep
resenting the syndicate would be in
New il; next week to confer with
Rlckard und to make n proposition
which would tempt the promoter of the
big fight.

FRED MERKLE MAY
JOIN MPILIES
Veteran First Sacker to Return
to Majors From Roches
tor, Is Report
QUAKERS START NORTH
By SPICK HAI.Ii
Darlington, 8. C, April 1. When
the Phillies arrived here today there
were buuiugs in the nir. Although
Manager Bill Donovan made no state
ment. It appears Mint there is n possi
bility of 'Fred Merkle joining the Phil
lies. Fred is plajing first baso for Qtorgo
Stallings' Rochester club, nnd he Is In
fine shape. Stallings has a erx good
ball club, nnd, while It Isn't likely tiiat
he would want to part with Merkle, he
probably would do so if the Pliilb' offer
Justified n chnngc.
There Is no doubt that if Stallings
Is willing to consider letting Merkle go,
tlic Phils will offer cither to purchase
him outright or to trade him for noino
of the young pitchers now on Donovan'
roster.
Gettlni Merkle would In no wnv In
terfere with the prcposed Hade with
Brooklyn, In which Stengel Is slntcd to
?o to the Dodgers for Al Mamaux nnd
jny Schmandt. In case deals go
through, Merkle would bo used
nt first hasc Immediate!, wtiilo
Schmandt was being groomed for the
job. Schmandt. besides being tried at
Jir.st, probably would bo used at becond
bnhc in 6omo of tho games, because he
hns played that position more than any
other.
Not BonrJiead
Merkle. in snlto nf his hnvinf nnllrvl
one of the worst bonebead plnjsln base
ball history, is not a bonehead. On tho
contrary, no is one of the smartest
players that ever performed In the
major teamic nnri 111. la nil nnMir1
by McOrnw and every other man who
really knows baseball.
Merkle, of course. Is not exactly a
youngster, but. like Art Fletcher, he has
a lot of baseball left in him and he
would be just the man to help tho Phils
out In their present trouble.
it was in lino that Merkle pulled the
day that made him famous with reverse
English. Merkle was nn first Vins In
the final inning and failed to an to m.
ond base nnd touch thp bag ufter a base
jilt by McCormlck had been made, send
ing in Brldwell with what should have
been tho winning run.
Johnny Kvers, playing with Frank
Chance s Chicago Cubs, was the man
who saw Mcrkle's mistake and who got
inu una irom Artie iiotlmon, touched
second base nnd prevented the Giants
from winning the game and pennant.
That game was a tic and when it was
played off tho Cubs won, annexing the
flag, only to receive n serere rfi-nhhlnr
by Connie Mack's Athletics In the world
series.
Whllo Merklc's ploy brought down
the calumny of newspapers and fans on
his head, the fact that Johnny Even)
was the only mnn on the field who noted
the mental error, proves conclusively
that any one under the same circum
tanceH might have done the same thing.
Play Rochester
Tho Phils were scheduled to piny the
Rochester club here this afternoon nnd
It may bo that Manager Donovan will
bo able to talk terms to George Stal
lings right away, nithough it isn't
likely that he would make any move
without letting President Baker in on
the secret.
All of tho Phils were tired out today
by the long ride from .TnckHnnrilln
which began lust night at 8 o'clock.
This morning they had breakfast at
Florence. Tonight both clubs will leave
nere and Play tomorrow afternoon in
Cheraw, S. C, a few hours' journey
iruin ui'ri'.
The Phillies finished their ntny In
Florida yesterday after having not lost
n biuglc day's practice. It Is truo that
the rain yesterday stopped the game
with Washington in .Jacksonville after
the first inning, but the 1'hlls had n
long batting and fielding session before
the conflict blurted.

Penn's baseball eqund has returned
to Philadelphia nftor Its southern trip
and will rebumo practice on Franklin
Field this afternoon In preparation for
its official opening of the. collcgo season
tomorrow afternoon. Bowdoln's nine
will be the opposition.
The Quakers' hopes yesterday of
winning from Johns Hopkins in Balti
more nnd in that way getting an even
break on tho trip away were smashed
to smithereens becauso of the heavy
rain there. It was pouring bo hard
shortly after noon that Coach Cnriss
and his Red and Nluo team took nn
early train for Philadelphia, arriving
here last night.
Coach Cnriss intended to pitch Doug
Shcffcy, former South Philadelphia
High School lad, who looked so good

The Eighteenth Amendment proved

DINED AT LAKE CHARLES
SttcM Dtspaleh to Evtntno Tiibllo Ledger

Mack's Athletics are scheduled to lock
horns here today with John McGraw's
Giants.
It wns a happy band of ball tossers
that broke camp nt Lake Charles. The
hardest part of the spring training
irnrl- ( nror nml llin Mnekmon nro enircr
to get In the rnco for tho 1021 pennant.

clubs and, nftcr weighing what they
have accomplished, they aro convinced
that this will be the Athletics' year, not
tnat tney nave nny wiin nmuiuons i
a pennant winner or even n berth In
the first division. It is that they have
mamm 4lin nnrl e.t 1nf nlnPA. nml Hln
irt.'Vii III- V..'. v. a.uv ,..,
Mackmen figure that getting off to n
good start win mean njucn.
This hope Is largely based upon the
...i..Hi nf (Imlr liiHnrle. Thev nolnt
to the fact, nnd not without reason,
that in pltcncrs and receivers mc ;m
Ictlcs nro better equipped than nny
other team In tho American League.
Aro Fast
An additional fact Is (bat the Ath
letics arc fast on their feet, nnd this
should not be without effect in tho hard
battles to come. At the present time
there appears to be only the one weak
ness of batting to overcome, ond Mack
nnd the players ore confident that Umo
will right this.
There is much special attention ns
to who will work for tho Athletics lu
this afternoon's gamo with tho Giant".
No assignment has been made as yet,
but appearances Indicate that Moore
will Fhoot his lefthand curves at the
Giants, and that, after going four or
five innings, ho will bo relieved by
Nnylor or Perry. All will depend upon
tho showing Roy will make in the early
innings.
Moore has not pitched since Sunday,
whilo Perry and nylor have had three
days of rest. Even Harris has had un
interval of a day since working for
three innings, nnd the same is true of
Hastv and Rommel.
While thero was some gloom among
Mack's second squad when they wit
nessed the departure of the first striug
from Lako Charles, the Yanignns con
soled themselves with the thought that,
when they got started North there
would be no halting this side of Balti
more. They will pass the big team
nt Mobile, und keep right on going,
beating their teammates by nearly n
week In reaching home.

First Baseman Brazil's hand is
rounding to its natural shape, nnd he

Plnclmrst, N. 0., April 1. In
ronnection with tho current rumors
that Joseph II. Klrkwood, the
Australian open golf champion, had
accepted or was about to accept an
American engagement, Klrkwood Is
sued tho following statement nt Pino

that when Brnzlll gets more familiar
with his position he will not hare any
