Luck May Still Have Part to Play, Says Varsity Baseball Coach

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Refusing to predict a Yankee victory in one, two, or three games Fred Mitchell, Varsity baseball coach, expresses himself as non-committal on the question of the world series.

"Any team that wins a league pennant is capable of beating any other team. In a four-game series the element of luck often is the determining factor. Witness the example of Fitzimmons' pitching in the third game or specific instances like Whitehead's grab of De Maggio's line drive in the opener.

"The Yanks are out in front, but nobody can predict when and if they'll win. They can only guess."

Mitchell who was coach for the Boston Braves in the palmy days of '13, '14, and '15, admitted under serious pressure, however, that he has always been a National League fan.
