A 141 of 197 baseball writers pick the St Louis Cardinals to win the NL pennant with the Cubs as a distant second. The piece notes a young catching corps led by 20 year old Mickey Owen, uncertain health for Paul and Len Warheke, and an infield with weak spots including Leo Durochier and Johnny Mize.

An accompanying letter recalls Coe College athletes from 1914 and 1920s figures, and a retrospective on the 1897 Fitzsimmons Corbett fight in Carson City.
