MINOR LEAGUE RACES
CLOSE AND EXCITING

The base ball excitement over the close
races in the American and National
leagues is not only confined to these or
carnations. In the minors. especially the
American Association and Eastern
League there are fights going on which
lust now have the two big leagues shaded
as far as points go separating the leaders
and the runners-up. And strange to re-
late, all four clubs. the two in the Amer
lean Association and the two in the East
ern, which are fighting for the champion
Ships are managed by former big league
stars, who earned their spurs on the
diamonds of the American and National
leagues.
The fight for the American Association
has been especially keen throughout the
season, but now has narrowed down to
a race between Milwaukee, managed by
McCloskey. who had charge of the st.
Louis Nationals last year. and Minneapo-
lis, which is managed by Jimmy Collins,
the former Boston and Athletic player
Collins team yesterday made decided
gain on Milwaukee, as the latter team
by losing a double header to Louisville
W lille Minneapolis was beating Indianapo-
lis. had its lead decreased by just thirteen
points. It's neck-and-neck struggle now
between the CLUBS Tor the wire.
The Eastern League tug of war between
Rochester and Newark is even greater
and closer than that in the American
Association. The Rochester Club which
is managed by John Camel the former
Cincinnati leader. has been losing steadily
for the last month, while Newark, the
crowd piloted by Joe McGinnity and Har-
ry Wolverton, by consistent playing has
closed the gap to such an extent that but
seven points now separate them from
terms with GanZel'G IT,.

out Montreal, while Newark overwhelmed

Earl Gardner. the youngster who was

himself well in the field and makes a

Club Standing,

John Ganzei will be sorely disap-
pointed man If his Rochester club fails
to carry off the Eastern League banner
as il has 50 strongly threatened to
do all sea son. He has his heart and soul
produce his first pennant winner. How
ever. there are already at least six other
disappointed managers. and if Newark
fails to cop there will be still another
gloomy person at Newark.
