CIo6e in September Eight
Teams in Loop.
Sioux "Falls, S. D., July 18.
(Special.) -The Southeastern South
Dakota Base Ball league, which has

one of the most successful of the
.jifc t. leagues of South Dakota and
me nonnwcsi. ine season ior me
league will open July 20, A 14-gamc
schedule will be played. I he season
will close in September.
It is proposed to play two games
' each week on Wednesdays and
Sundays and to divide the receipts
60 and 40 per cent, the (30 per cent
going to the home team. It also i3
planned to play home men if pos
sible, with provision that a battery

exceed $250 per month. The idea is
to make it a clean game, played for

Teams from Lennox, Hurley, Vi
borg, Parker, Marion, Irene, Center
ville and Wakonda will have places
in the league,
Centerville, especially, has a great
tjeal of first-class base ball material,
and it is expected the city will place
a strong team in the field. The other
towns which have been given places
in the league are also said to have
good supplies of base ball materia,
so good teams will be placed in the
field and good games will be wit
nessed during the remainder of the
season,' with keen competition be
tween the teams of the various towns
for the capture of the league pen
nant. '
: All the teams will have good
backing and the league is expected
to be one of the strongest financially
in the state or northwest.

Chicago, July 17, At least one
point has been already settled in the

Pirates Playing Best Brand of
Base Ball in Both Leagues;
Deserve to Win Cheesecloth
'The Pirates," one is informed, "are playing over their heads."
All of which is a southpsw concession from the opposition that they'll
brceje along to the October wire far in front of the National league pack.
By FRANK O. MENKE.
(CopyrtfM, 1111, by Xlaf
Any time that the enemy folks
doubt a team's legitimate leadership
with an "over-their-heads" expres
sion the statement can be tossed
into the junk heap. For, when
club has scooted along for three solid
months, displaying the beit base bat
in either circuit, it's no spurt; it's
real merit, sheer power asserting
itself.
Back in August, 1914, when the
Braves, lofting themselves from tne
July cellar, crashed through toward
the too the skeptics declared:
They're playing over their
heads."
Play Over All Heads.
Possibly the Braves were playing
over their own heads, but they also
played over the heads of everything
on the older league. They whirled
through to the championship in Oc
tober and climaxed the years
achievement by crushing the Athlet
ics in four straight.
A year later the one-time lowly
Phillies rose up, kicked their rivals
hither and von with reckless anan
don, but remarkably ' crumpled and
flattened precision. Whereupon, the
heretics veiled:
"They're playing over their
heads." .
The Phillies won.
In 1916, when the Dodgers tgot
awsy to a good start, increased t as
time flitted onward, the .chorus
from the other towns was
"They're olavinsr over their
heads." '
Th Doricerg won.
None but careful students of the
game took thp early work of the
1010 Reds seriously. Most everyone
else thought it was just a spurt; that
the men of Pat Moran were play
ing over their heads." Yet they be-

Whenever a base ball club which
dopsn't "done" out in the spring as
a pennant certainty, flashes brilliant
base ball into July or August, tne
form students become puzzled. They
rarely will concede they erred in
judgment in not naming that club as
the pacemaker and probably the
winner of the race. They explain
it all with
"They're playing over their heads.

If history repeats in the case of
the Pirates, they surely will win the
slab of cheesecloth. For never has a
team failed to win a pennant which
Jury Indulges in First "Inning"
- Of Trial of n Former White Sox
Charged With 'Throwing" Series
Chicago, July 18. After two
weeks warming up, during which
nearly 600 men were examined irj an
effort to select a jury, defense and
prosecution today indulged in the
first "inning" of the trial of seven
former White Sox players and four
alleged gamblers charged with a
conspiracy to permit Cincinnati to
win the 1919 world series from Chi
cago. There were indications that the 12
umpires in the jury box may be
asked to decide merely whether such
a conspiracy as the state charges
was against Illinois laws rather than
if such a conspiracy actually existed.
The defense planned to inject
into the trial the feud between Pres
Pirates and Indians Confronted
By Difficult Games This Week
New York, July 18. A difficult
week confronts both the .Pittsburgh
National league leaders and the
Cleveland American world cham
pions. The Pirates are striving hard
to beat off New York, which is
three games behind, while Boston,
their next opponent, is coming after
them at hinh sneed. The Indian
and the New. York Yankees, who
are beginning to edge away from
the other American clubs, start bat
tle Wednesday for the top position.

was accused for months with "play
ing over their heads."
A tudy of the Pirates' doings so
far this year convinces that they are
"playing over their heads" but the
heads are not their own. They are
playing over the heads of critics and
rival clubs playing superlative base
ball.
And they show no signs of slip
ping from the heights they have
gained through their wonderful
work..
Any ball club with a sireatle lead
like the Pirates now enjoy, plus the
confidence that comes with each new
victory, plus mechanical skill, with
which the Pirate roster is richly en
dowed, is practically unbeatable in a
battle which already is half over.
When a club possessed of known
staying qualities grabs a big lead
over its rivals, and then has only
one in-and-out club to beat, it's task
is simplified. For early success
breeds a newer fighting spirit and
gives to it an impetus that usually
sweeps it on beyond all opposition.
Misfortune injury to one of the
stars, a suspension, or some unfore
seen accident may come to the
Pirates and not only halt them in
the forward dash, but toss them back
to defeat. But, with the "breaks" of
the game even all around, the safe
plunge now is Pittsburg to win.
Maranville Stars.
Rabbit'' Maranville is responsible
in a large measure for the wonder-
ful game the Pirates have played all
through the year. The peppery
battling midget supplied to the club
on the field the final ingredient need
ed to lift them from the ordinary to
greatness. And the cheenness of the
little fellow off the field, his bouyant
good nature, made of the Pirates a
happy harmonious family.
As the season began, there was a
tendancy to underrate the Pirate
youngsters. Barnhart, Bigbce and
Bnmm may not have been among the
truly greats a year ago. But in the
time since then they have improved
with companionship of Maranville,
Carey and Robertson, to a point
where they are 50 per cent greater
than in 1920. And that's the improve
ment they'll carry along .with them
all through the year: the added
power, the added finesse, which
coupled with the greatness of the
"Rabbit," of Carey, . Robertson,
Cooper, Adams and the others
promise to sweep the Pirates along
irresistibly to the October crest of
base ball world.
