    Giants Class
of National
League Clubs
By DAVIS J. WALSH.
International Newt Service Sports Kdltor.
New York, April 2.—Judged upon
surface indications, the National
league situation has changed about
as much as the undertaker’s profes
sional smile since early October. The
New York Giants were too much for
the rest of the field at that time,
much to much, and between seasons
they are believed to have taken on
additional strength while the other
clubs have Improved their condition
but slightly if at all.
If fate rules otherwise, the Giants
figure to cakewalk right on down to
the wire for their third successive
pennant.
We are not, however, picking win
ners at this stage of the proceedings,
merely voicing what seems to be a
palpable conclusion, there seemingly
being neither necessity nor sense in
concealing or evading this fact.
Giants Stronger.
The world’s champions are the
same impressive outfit that succeeded
in front-running the pack through
the last tw;o months of the 1922 sea
son, with these exceptions:
They are assured of sounder, more
consistent pitching because Scott
and McQuillan are available for the
entire season and Jack Bentley is
regarded as being able to deliver $6.V
000 worth of left hand pitching;
Heine Groh, out of many games with
a demountable knee, is whole again,
and finally the addition of Jimmy
O'Connell, the human interrogation
point.
Once an inquiry is pursued beyond
the Giants, however, complications
set In. The rest of the Held is very
nicely balanced and a possible seventh
place club today may be running sec
ond in September.
Pirates Weak Arm.
The Reds are generally picked as
the main contender and they are as
good as any; no better, however. Tt
is our impersonal opinion the young
gentlemen playing ball for Pat Moran
last year were just a hit beyond
themselves. Daubert had a great
year but doesn't figure to repeat. The
pitching lacks the consistency of
hampionshlp baseball, and the fact
that Roush is out again may hurt
immediately. Roush can be a great
help or hindrance to the club, as he
chooses.
The Pirates haven’t the pitching
they had a year ago, nor Is George
Gibson ths man to develop and steady
the staff. Otherwise they are the
same ball club, plus the slugging Reb
Russell, near champions only.
Aa for the Cubs, they have a lot of
young pitchers who may either go
over big or not at all. In addition
they are a slow ball club and their In
field defense Is open to suspicion just
as is the case with the St. Louis
Cards. The latter are trying to re
place Johnny Lavan with a young
shortstop, who may be a champion or
a chump In the long run, and Jim Bot
tomley at first base hasn’t been in the
league long enough to prove anything
definitely.
Cards Out of It.
HI Myers fills a hole in the outfield
and Fred Toney may improve the
pitching, but not enough to carry a
weak staff. The Cards have ceased
to be serious contenders, since last
August.
A general house cleaning has set In
with the Dodgers and a berth near
the head of the second division should
be theirs, particularly with the kind
of pitching they can muster. They will
have pitchers as long as your Uncle
Hobby remains with the club.
The Phils and Braves are probably
slightly Improved outfits, but they
have Irremediable weaknesses that
seem to consign them to the second
division quite definitely. The Phils
have not pitching, the Braves vefy
little and neither is sufficiently en
dowed jn other respects to offset this
handicap.

Australian Tennis Accociation
Will Wait Until Next Season to
Put Strong Davis Team in Field
IIY VINCENT RICHARDS. .
National Tennis Doubles Cliampion.
I'nlrersal Service Staff Correspondent. ■.
The recent selection of J. O. An
derson, Norman Peach, Kchleslnger
and Sturt as the team that will rep
resent Australia this coming season
in the Davis Cup matches, proves
beyond a shadow of doubt that the
land down under does not intend to
challenge for this trophy seriously
this season.
The mere fact that Patterson,
Wood Hawks and Wertheim have de
dined places^on the team prove that
the Australian Tennis association will
wait until 1924 before they muster
their full strength in quest of the cup.
Not so long after the Australian
team arrived home last season after
their tour of Europe and America,
both Patterson and Wood were quoted
as having said. “So long as Tilden
and Johnston are playing in America,
the Davis Cup will be safe in that
land.’’ Perhaps it is this theory that
has led the Australian association in
selecting the team that will represent
that country in the International play
this coming year.
Known in Karts Here.
At any rate, of the team that comes
here in quest of the international
bowl this year, only Anderson and
Peach are known to the fans of this
country. Doth were with the team
that made made the trip last season.
J. O. Anderson will undoubtedly cap
tain the team. I look to see Ander
son cut quite a swath in the big
tournaments of the east this coming
year.
This famous Australian had what
might be called a bad year in his play
hero last season. He was unfortu
nate enough to be ill while he was
playing in many of the feature tour
naments of the year.
When we stop to consider ®e fact
that Anderson has defeated G«rald L.
Patterson almost every time he has
played him, we get some idea of the
ability of this tall Australian,
Just this past winter Anderson won
the New Zealand championship from
Patterson in five terrific sets. Un
fortunately for him he will need a
partner in order to take back the
famous Davis Cup to the land down
under and I cannot see in any of the
other three men who wilt make the
trip with him a partner of his own
calibre.
Should Not Ioih> Bowl.
With Tilden and Johnston still able
and ready to defend the famous In
ternational trophy, it looks as If
America will not have to worry about
losing the bowl this season.
Perhaps the real menace will come
in 1924 when both Australia and Jap
an will muster their entire strength
In their quest for the much-heralded
cup.

HAUGHTON, HARVARD AND COLUMBIA.
Haughton came to Harvard In 1908. That year Harvard beat Tale 4 0.
These were the only points that Harvard scored against Tale through four
years, as the campaigns of 1910 and 1911 were scoreless duels.
Four points against Yale In four years—and yet Harvard stood pat,
backing Haughton to the limit.
Haughton has a far harder asisgntuent at Columbia Ilian he ever had
at Harvard and his only chance to succeed will be through the complete co
operation of his new football home and at least a fair share of putlence.
THE PAK FOR PKSTS.
A tnong those we can do without
In any land or clime
Are those who Ray with knowing mien.
No matter who tho upset's been;
"I knew it ail the time.”
It's then T reach for gat or ax,
Or hope they check his income tax.
Having won a pennant every four years since 1915, Pat Moran can see
no reason why he should give up the pleasant habit this late in life. Pat
pulled the Phillies through in 1915. and the Reds over in 1919. And it so
happens in 1923 that McGraw picks him as the most dangprous party In
the way of the Giants and a third world series pot. Pat, given the material,
ran usually make it hum. This year he has it again.

"A well-known British boxer is said to be taking up steeplechase riding,"

take up boxing."
The report that some movie star gets divorced every week is quite In

“These are the llnaR I would hkvo displayed—
"‘WHEN YOU HAVE FINISHED WITH THE PICK AND SPADE

All the glory of areomplishnirnt doesn't belong to the larger universities,

■ remarkable athletic showings of the decade.

Cotaffli
New York, April 2.—Montaigne
says:
"Hunters assure us that to choose
the best <log, and which they pur
pose to keep out a litter of other
young whelps, there is no better
means than the dam herself.
"For, if they be removed from
out their kennel, him that she first
brings thither again shall always
prove the best; or if one but en
compass her kennel with fire, look
which of her whelps she first
seeketh to save, is undoubtedly the
best."
This last test wouldn't work out
in the human brood.
If a mother with 10 small chil
dren, one of them bed ridden, hope
lessly cripple, or imbecile, the
others strong and healthy, and she
found their lives endangered by
fire, she would rescue the helpless
one first.
It might not be the best of her
brood as the human best is rated,
but it would be the one nearest
and dearest to her heart.
Men who know hunting dogs,
setters nr pointers, in picking a
puppy from a litter choose the.
runt, the little fellow of the bunch,
if they are wise.
It generally makes the best hunt
ing dog.
Sherrod Smith, lankr, drawling
voiced lefthander, for years with
the Brooklyn Dodgers, now with
Tris Speaker’s Cleyeland club, ex
plained this to the writer one day.
Smith comes from the quail belt
of Georgia. He is one of the
greatest wing shots in the south,
knows dogs thoroughly. He owns
some of tiie best the writer has
ever seen.
"I reckon,” Smith said, “the
reason the runt of a litter is the
best for hunting is because the
other gets all the looks and sire
and strength, so nature evens it.
up by giving it the brains. It is
always the smartest.”
As it is with dog*, bo it is with
the human family.
Jack Dempsey was the youngest,
the runt, the weakling of four
boy*.
Bernard Dempsey, the oldest, was
a professional boxer, Johnny Demp
sey had hopes and some promise
in that direction.
Harry, now called Jack, was in
cl.ned to be sickly. Today Harry
is champion heavyweight, is taller
and outweighs his brothers by
many pounds.
Women, as you undoubtedly
know if you are married, are Terr
curious. As a friend of the writer.
often remarks:
"You never can fefl about
women."
The man who thinks he fully
understands women is cracy—or
unmarried.
A woman who is one of Demp
sey's friends saw tire champion
fight Georges t'arpentier. She said,
to the writer afterwards:
"Before the fight I was very
anxious for Ihmipsey to win. I was
so wrought up about the matter
that I felt It would he a personal
calamity to me If the lost. Then
when t arpentier came into the
ring. Dempsey looked so big. so
brute-like alongside him. 1 felt
sorry for the poor title French
man. I suddenly found myself
hoping he would win.”
This same woman saw the giant
T,ul» Firpo defeat Bill Brennan in
the bloody battle at Madison Square
Garden.
“I never ww* so thrilled by the
sight of a man in my life,” she
said. "Firpo was so tremendous,
so fierce, 1 was spellbound."
"But didn’t you feel sorry for
poor Bill Brennan when he looked j
so small alongside Firpo," the j
writer asked.
"Why. no." she replied. I
didn’t think I even thought *f
that."
