N|NETEEN:TWELVE
SEASON STARTS IN
ON FINAL MONTH
Boston Is Eleven Full Games
Ahead of Griffith's
Club.

NEW YORK, Sept. with eight
games scheduled In each big league to-
day, the final month of baseball was
put into full swing, with all indIcat tions
favoring the Giants as the pennant
winners in the National League and the
Boston Red Sox in the American.
The final drive opened with Boston
eleven full games ahead of Washing
ton and thirteen games ahead of Phila-
delphia. The Giants rested with a good
margin on Chicago, the, only serious
contender, second. New York fans took
hope from news from ST. Louis that
Jimmie Archer, one of the best back
stops on the Cubs, had injured himself
in yesterdays game. But while form
indicated New York and Boston to be
the winners in their respective leagues,
a freak break could still upset ali
calculations during the present month.
remaining thirty games, the team would
finish with record of 1O2 victories
and 80 defeats, a record which would
make victory practical certainty. In
der such conditions Washington would
have to win 26 of the remaining 2S
games, and the Athletics would be COM
PEELED to win 80 out of their remain
ing 81 games.
The present week can make or break
the Giants. They have ten games In
six days, seven in Philadelphia on four
successive days. In 1908 the Phillies
beat the Giants out of the pennant. and
there may be an Coveleski hidden some
where in DoOin's aggregation.
BY breaking even the Giants would
close the season with 100 victories, and
Chicago would then have to win % out
of its remaining 30 games.

Local crews do not figure in the pick
ings for this afternoons events of the
Middle States regatta. They are
counted upon as being strong con-
tenders in both the races for eights, but
from close scrutiny of the boats that
were on the river yesterday afternoon,
opinion seems to lean toward the New
Rochelle crowd in the race for inter-
mediate eights and to the Arundels, of
Baltimore, in the event for senior
eights.
1t was late yesterday afternoon when
the much heralded New Rochelle crew
took the water. The boat was pushed
off from the Potomac float with a snap
that made the spectators take notice
Immediately. and couple of minutes
later the crew was heaving up-river
with lively stroke. They went to the
starting line. took racing start, and
roWed the course. coming to the float
Immediately they had finished.
They are a clever eight. There is no
shell on the river today that runs out
between stroke as theirs does, and there
10 no oarsman on the river that can
control the slide as their whole crew
does. 1t is on this accomplishment that
they are picked to finish first in the in
termediate race, for If they can keen
their boat running out between strokes,
they can row a slower stroke than any
of their rivals and still cross the line
In front.
Potomacs In Fight.
The Potomac intermediates will give
the New Rochelles a good stiff battle,
with the Maltas chasing close on them.
These three are looked upon as the
probable van OF the seven crews entered
in that event.
The Arundels are picked to win the
event Tor senior eights. The Baltimore
contingent is a veteran one and well
accustomed to grueling contests. They
will be pitted against two of the con-
tenders in the race for intermediate
eights and the Potomac juniors Be-
cause of the fact that the Potomac in
termediates and the New Rochelle crew
will fight a finish battle in the inter-
mediate race, the Arundels will start
out in the last event with the advan-
tage of being a tritie fresher than their
opponents and on this are they expect
ed to carry off the plaque,
Then, too, Jim Rice knows pretty
well how TO mold an eight together and
he has done ii with this years Arundel
crowd. Although he has but nine men
here and has crews in four events, he
mas placed all of his confidence on the
senior fours and senior eights and there
Is no doubt that his chances are good
in both races.
The Undine Barge Club is feared
most in the Junior double sculls. They
are ranked as the best of the Phila.
delphla entrants in this event. II the
Potomac had good boat to row in,
