forty cubic feet shall be con-
sidered ton.

A CLOSE RACE.
Today's Games to Settle International League Race-Buffalo Still Leads.

Buffalo, Sept. 18.-The Buffalo club
 Of the International league, managed
 by Pat Donovan, moved closer to the
 pennant yesterday by breaking even
 in a double-header with Jersey City, while Providence dropped two games
 to Toronto. The pennant race has
 been one of the closest in several sea- sons, and up to a week ago Provi- dence, last years winner, looked as if they would again capture the flag. Buffalo, however, has been playing the most consistent ball, while the Providence club found the pace too fast. When the two clubs met in the crucial series fo the season, early in the week, Buffalo took the first game,
 while the second resulted in tie. ] This placed Buffalo in the lead, and their position was strengthened yes terday.
 The season will close today, with both of the leading teams playing double headers. If Providence wins both games with Toronto today and
 Buffalo loses both games to Jersey City, Providence will again win the
 flag. However, Buffalo stands an ex- cellent chance of taking at least one of the games today with Jersey City, and this victory will assure them of the pennant by small margin. It is seldom that the race has been so close that the pennant has not been decided until the last game.

Detroiter Batting .S77-Thr@ Bases Short of League Record

Chicago, Sept. t-~s Tyrus Cobb has recovered his battir q i've, according to averages published V re today. AL though far from the 400 mark which he established some weeks ago, Cobb had added seven points to his mark of last week. He still is in the lead by 57 points, with an average of BIT, Speaker of Boston being the runner up with 1920, and Jackson, Chicago .315; others in the American league following this trio, who have played in at least half the games are: F.

 Detroit also claims another, head liner in Sam Crawford, who leads in total bases with 253. He has made 31 doubles, 19 triples and four homers. Burns, another Tiger who has been holding the lead in home runs, has been tied. by oldring of Philadelphia. Each has five.

The Big Switch.

Ten days ago Boston looked to be safely through in the American league and the main question seemed to be whether CT not the Red Sox would meet Phillies, Braves or Dodgers.
 Now the close finish stuff has been transferred to the younger circuit, with the Phillts practically under the wire. With Jess than twenty games to play, it is almost impossible for the road-wavering Dodgers and the crippled Braves to cut their way through the lead which Pat Moran's hustlers have packed away by game, constant work.
 It can be done, but we don't think it will be. If the Braves had been able to move through September with their full strength and cut out their umpire repartee, their chance would have been even at the worst.
 The only wonder Is that they havc made such a fight against such crushing odds. Every portion of the Braves machine, at one time or an- other, has been dislocated and thrown into the shop for repairs. And at the edge of the stretch, when they still had a chance, despite an unkempt

Odds and Ends of Dope.

Oscar Stanage is not to be ranked below the best catcher on the Red Sox club. The Tigers have a slight advantage here. For the greater part of the season rhe Boston entry had the better of the pitching, but when Jennings added James and Louder milk he moved his sharpshootinG corps upon even terms with those who guard the Red Sox firing line. Dauss, Coveleskie. Dubus, James Lou dermilk and Roland are no whit be- low Foster, Ruth, Shore, Shore, Col lins, Leonard ana Gregg.
 The two infields are practically up on a par. Burns Young, Bush and Witt stand about even with Hoblit- zell, Barry, Scott and Gardner
 The two outfelds have been com- pared up and down, pro and con. back and forth and around about. They are the best two outfelds in the game.
 But through their greater offensive strength Cobb, Crawford and Veach are somewhat stronger than Speak CT, Lewis and Hooper-as excellent as the latter trio are.

HERALD BOWLERS BEAT VERIBEST
Commercial Street Five Prove
 Easy for Church Street Boys

We have met the enemy and they are o,,rs. The match game of duck pins between the Herald and the Veribest teams at the Aetna alleys last evening resulted in a victory for the former team (we told you so) after three fast contests. The boys from the "shop' covering themselves with glory by taking two out of three games from their opponents.
 The game was late in starting due to the absence of Art Connor of the Veribest team, and at S:30 o'clock the managers of both teams agreed to allow Bill" Hart, who was supposed to be a ringer, start.
 The first game was a nifty contest, with the Herald boys bowling up 10 form In this game Captain Edwards and Captain Hornkohl had a gruelling battle with the star pin smasher of the Herald coming out on top. Art" McEvoy was the second high man in this frame with a mark of 83. Scoop" O'Brien also rolled his usual steady game and made score of 70. Daly and McAllister were off form, particularly the star lead off man. who was SuIorlnS rom stage IrlSnt, but was outlucked by number of bad splits.
 The second game was a thriller, 1t going to the opposition by five pins. In this game Captain Hornkohl made the high score of the evening of IA, and Guy Berry also reached high water murk with 1O4. The boys from the meathouse when the score was counted by Tom" Lawlor were found to be in the fore, by a score of 405 to 400.
 Now for the finish. After a slight intermission the two teams went at it with a vengeance, and both bent on victory. The Herald boys seemed to have more confidence in their ability, and kept plugging away in a syss tematic manner, Cookie" Jackson who relieved McAllister, played a COL sistent game, and held Berry to a lead of one pin. McEvoy continued to shine in the third game, and beat his opponent ffty-four pins, which set the Herald team on the high road to victory. Captain Edwards also hand ed Captain Hornkohl beating in his frame, 90 to 75. The score:

Two Vital Spots.

There are two vital spots in the Tiger schedule which have a mob than usually important bearing upon Detroit's prospect of sending Messrs. Cobb and Crawford against the N. l.. winners.
 The first of these is the present Tiger-Red Sox series, now under way.
 The second is the five-game series to be played in Washington. If Detroit can get out of Boston with three victories, there still remains this second obstacle. Griff is making a headlong dive for third place. His Nationals for two weeks or more have been travelling along at a won derful clip. They have been playing a brand of baseball that no club can beat without battle all the way. and with Johnson back at a winning clip and several other first class pitch CTS waiting their turn, this series will be as hard for Detroit as the Boston engagement is-and Boston at that time will be facing much softer competition.
New Britain herald., 1915-09-18

The series, or serious, more or less crooshial, now beins unwrappcd in Boston for the, championship of the American League, is a pretty fair an- swer as to whether or not baseball in
 terest is a thing of the hallowed past.
 Boston fanatics are about as sedate and conservative a group of folks as any citadel in .he lln1 can show yet they are worked up to a frenzy far greater than anything they knew back in 1912, when the Red S".N won Boston's first pennant in eight years.

BRAVES RECEIPTS ATTACHED.

St Louis, Sept. 1S.-Boston's share of the gate receipts for the St. Louis Boston Nationals double-header here yesterday was attached by Deputy Sheriffs. The attachment was the re- suit of a suit for $9,00O filed by the Kansas City association club against the Boston Nationals. The Kansas City club asked in it's suit $4,0O0 all legcd to be due for Player Bash Comp ton and $5,OO0 for the non-delivery of two players, Lawrence Gilbert and Richard Crutcher. Kansas City claims that these players and $4,000 were to be turned over to them for Bash Compton.

Tigers vs. Red Sox.

Those fanatics who are not inclined to wait for the full returns, but wh 0 desire an advance tip on the ultimate American league winner, are invited to make a close inspection of the two leading clubs. After this review they can understand why it is that any prophecy must be in the nature Of rank guess for no two better match ed machines ever careened side by side through the dust of the stretch.
 As present conditions stand, we should say that Detroit has shade the better club, while Boston has the shade better schedule to work upon which, if form 1uns true to the clos ing game, should leave the two main contenders puffing and struggling neck and neck to the last day or two of the race.
New Britain herald., 1915-09-18
Good Fighters.

Both clubs nre we'll matched in aggressiveness and ganneness. Neither will quit at any Gtage under fire. Bos- ton, twice, at least, has moved against Detroit at home at critical points of the race and retired with the honors of war.
 But all through the race, although trailing most of the way, Detroit has hung gamely to a final hope, and has refused to break or slip even when counted out time and again and when the odds were clearly against her.
 The right spirit grips both clubs, which means tho hardest sort of fighting over the entire route.

Giants DrOD Two.

Pittsburgh, Sept. 1S.-The Giants rapped the ball right smartly in the first game of a double header yes- terday and lost. In the second game they batted quite mildly and lost. Whatever 1t is that they do in the course of their ball games, the point in this, their losing is pretty nearly unanimous. The score of the first game was g to in favor of the Pi- rates and of the second to 0.
 The Pirates won both tilts by clear ly defined superiority in ball playing, the superiority distributed in this wise: The teams were practically even in batting strenttl in the first event but the Pittsburgh fielding was steady and delft, whereas that of the Giants was sloppy and fatuous. In the second game the Pittsburgers ex- celled the Poloists. who are sinking fast in the quicksahds of last place through their haphazard and unkempt playing, in fielding and in batting. The
