Announcement: of their statements was made by W. W. Whitlock, I. A. A. safety department director and co-chairman for the Safety Week campaign. Included among theiM was a statement Arnold P.

This Boston team, managed by the brilliant Jimmy Collins, one of the greatest infielders of all timer was baaeball's sensation. Big Bill Dineen had been a major factor in winning this series from a team that had such stars as Hans Wagner, Fred Clarke, Tommy Leach and Kitty Branafleld. Boston, long before any Red Sox appellation, was about a 1 to 40 bet to win--champions of the world playing against a strictly bush league outfit By same odd ehanee, before starttag a asile and a half walk to the | hall park.

People I had known in Atlanta gave me an odd look after taking a brief glance at my unshsven, rough and rowdy-looking companion. Knowing what would happen later, I wasn't bothered about any aocial check-up. Raymond started the game by insulting Jimmy Collins, Freddy Parent, George La Chance and every star on the Boston team. He would walk from the pitcher's box up towards the plate and let them know, in forcible and smoking language, what he thought they all were. What the Beaten Americans, the world's champions, dlda't know, sad what I didn't knew, or anyone else, was this: They were facing one of the greatest spit-hall pitchers and aae of the greatest aatnral pitchers of all time--If yea coald eaJy heap him one-third sober, which even Me- Graw senlda't.
