New York National team won.
Tbe Giant* pennant winner* in 1911

though the; were in a hair breadth ot

—three against tbe Giaota in 19Oj.
Once Detroit made but *ix against Chi-
cago and the Athletic* made but ail
against the Boston National*. Brook-
lyn acored only eight runs against
Cleveland teat year.
An interesting sidelight on tbe
eerie* of other year* ia concerned in tbe
Uianag- r* of the pennant winning team*
whose employment of baseball cunning
in tbe various game* ha* been one of
tbe invisible yet most potent fact ora in
the great event*.

Philadelphia Athletics can lay eiaim to
tbe jgreatest world aerie* honors. Three
of Mack's teams have non tbe aeries

John McGraw manager of tbe New
York Giants and Mark woo on both
occaaion*. Another of baseball * great-
est tenders. Frank Chance of the Cubs
lost a series to tbe Mackmen.
However Chance was one of tbe se-
lect few who led their team* to world
■ertea victory on two occasion*. In
19117 and liars hi* Cub* turned back
Hugbie Jennings' Detroit*. Cbauce's
outfit was defeated in tbe aerie* of
1906 by Manager Jones' Chicago White
Sox. Tbe cub* were woefully weak in
that aeries taking into consideration
the fact that they bad set a new record
