In regard to the championship question, I think that will be decided before we reach home. The Mutuals at best can only win six more games, and to tie them we have to win but four, and then be entitled to the championship, we having the best record. The chances are they will lose two, very likely three of the six games they have yet to play. If our two games in New York were with the Mutuals in place of the Atlantics, we would be more certain of wining them, for there is more unity in the Atlantics.
