PROFESSIONAL BASEBALL.

Now that the Giants have won the National
League championship beyond peradventure. IN
terest In baseball turns to the close fight IN
the American League between Philadelphia and
Chicago Whereas week ago the White Sox
appeared TO be playing the strongest and seemed
m have a good chance of catching the leaders,
IRE nrobable outcome now seems to favor the
Athletics Philadelphia two Of the three
sarnes between the two rival teams and holds
The lead by a margin Of ten points-a small one.
II IS true, but to all appearances safe one
Each team has eight more games to play. Phila-
aeIphis has three games with ST. Louis on home
grounds and FIVE with Washington at Washing
ton Chicago must play all eight away from
honae-three with Washington and five with St
Louis In order TO earn the pennant Chicago
must win five Of the eight games while Phtla-
delphia is losing five in eight. Chicago is quite
likely to win five. but it is improbable that
Philadelphia Will be accommodating as 10
lose I'VE. As the teams stand to-day the ODDS
are all in favor Of the Athletics being the ones
10 meet the Giants in the worlds championship
series. The Highlanders have still an outside
chance TO finish in the first division They
might have been third had advantage been
taken of last weeks opportunities. The Giants
deserve all credit for winning the National
League championship for the second year IN
succession Under the able management or
McGraw, the team has played consistent, win
ming ball all the year, and won every series
Individual brilliancy has been sacrificed at ell
times to team play, and the men have worked
diligently to put another winning team in New
York. With 102 games to their credit, there Is
even strong possibility Of the Giants eQualling.
II not surprising their great record Of Jog win

are now roofing for this additional honor. The
Giants will get home this week TO wind up the

ATTOMORmING.

Giving as its reason the fact that the fastest
racing should represent America in the in
ternational automobile road race for the Van
6erbuilt Cup, the commission which had the
matter in charge decided last Monday to accept
only two Of the five cars which finished in the
elimination trials, and added three cars which
took part in the race but met with accidents
This radical move the part Of the commission
has met with much adverse criticism, and court
proceedings were even threatened by the owners
of the cars thrown out. This is absurd. and
would accomplish nothing; but the racing board
of the Automobile Club of America has not put
itself in envia BILE position by the ruling.
81 1t was done with the best interests of the
American team at heart. Granted that the low
horsepoWered touring cars not accepted would
have had no chance with the racing machines
Of greater horsepower of other countries it
would have been better from a sportsman's
point Of view and for the development Of Amer
lean cars had the elimination trial been al
lowed TO serve its purpose and not degenerated
into a farce or an advertising dodge. All in
terested in the big road race are anxious to see
America as well represented as possible. The
chances of winning and keeping the cup in this
country are none too bright 1t is but action
that appears arbitrary will not tend to encour-
age the building and racing of cars another year

ton race

AUTO TRACK RACING

In this connection It may be said that road
racing. like track racing, for high powered cars
Seems doomed. The automobile industry in its
. .ginning needed a stimulus and got it in the
Jts OF extreme speed, which attracted attention
I'd aroused comment in all quarters. There is
no longer the need Of false stimulus, and the
time has come when road ard track racing is
more likely TO turn the tickle public against the
machines and their use. Reliability trials and
races for touring cars over long distances are
1he tests that mean something. and these should
be fostered and encouraged. rather than the dan
.Eerous trials of extreme speed over mile tracks
Tor comparatively short circuits. Those who
Ernust fairly fly or race at railroad speed can
lsstisfy their passion for speeding the beach
courses. where the danger point is reduced to a
minimum.
