last opportunity of the season this az
ternoon to see the New York American
team in action, for after to-day's con-
test the boys will travel 10 Philadelphia
where they will cross bats with the
Athletics for .hree games and then close
up for 1911.
It has been a DISAPPOINTING year Tor
the club, yet Manage Chase isn't dis
heartened, and he is confident that with
an even break OF luck next season his
boys will be in the race for the pennant
from start to finish.
The Red Sox. who have been one OF
the hardest foes in the league for the
Highlanders TO beat. will be the at
traction again. and every effort VIII be
made to partly atone for the double
drubbing administered by that club yes
tsrday.
The locals are In danger Of losing their
grip on the first division for they are
only three points ahead OF the White
Sox, who are in NTH place.
Practically all hope OF winding up the
sea son In third place was abandoned By
the dropping of the double-header Ths
Maps didn't play, so they were able &c
widen the gap between them and the
New Workers.. Seventeen points Is the
margin between the two teams, and
with the rinal game so near at hand II
looks almost impossible for the Chaser:
20 reach the coveted goal.
Because OF the grand pitching ex'
hibited by the Red SoX twirlers yester,
day only one run was made In bot
sessions by the Hilltoppers. Hall wa:
