of .6O4. If the Red Sox win their
remaining fourteen games their per-
centage would be GIL. II the Red
Sox made a clean sweep OF the games
with the Tigers they would have 2
percentage Of .5S7 and Detroit would
stand at $3.50. That would leave the
champions with eleven games to play
and the Tigers with seven. Shouid
Detroit then Win every one OF those
games their percentage would ne .oS4.
Hence, to win the pennant with the
Tigers winning all remaining games
after the present series. proviohg OF
course that Chicago doesn't step IN.
fine Red Sox will have to win seven
games with four losses.
Chicago Has Chance.
Chicago, however, must not De
counted out. The White Sox loom
right now just as strong as any or
the contenders. If they can take the
entire series from the Athletics they
will be ready to challenge either De-
troft or Boston for the final push to
the end of the season. The situation
is full of possibilities and on the turn
of single game may rest the ioca-
ton of the cities which will stage the
next worlds series.
Bill Carrigan's pitching stan has
not been doing as well as It mlgnt
lately. Taken as whole, the stan
has wavered slightly. Poor pitching
cannot stand against the fusillade OF
the Tigers which they are certain to
turn loose even though the Jennings
hurlers are not known as exuaord1-
narily effective. The Red Sox are not
heavy 'hitters at best and with Jack
Barry missing, they are not so strong
defensively as usual.
In the National league, through the
victory of the Reds in one game OF
double header with Brooklyn the
Dodgers relinquished half game OF
their lead and the pace setting job In
the Tener circuit now hangs on
single game The Phillies can take
first place today if they win and the
Dodgers lose.
Brooklyn has seventeen games left
on the calendar, while Philadelphia
must play nineteen. If Brooklyn wins
ten and loses seven games the Dodg-
ers' percentage would be an even
500 To win the ,pennant In this
event. the Phillies must win twelve
of their remaining nineteen games,
providing the Braves don't sneak in
with a few extra wins and steal the
flag from under the noses OF both
Dodgers and Fhillies. The Braves are
now in third place, a game and a
half behind tie Phillies.

providing that rain does not inter
fere with the pastiming.
There was real football zip to the
air today, but bright sun did much
to offset the cool breeZes.
George Dauss and George Foster
probably will be chosen to battle for
honors in the opener, although for
the Carriganeers, Mays and Leonard
are also possibilities.
Both teams will enter the fray
with crippled infields.
Boston will be minus the services
OF Jack Barry, while for the Tigers,
Oscar Witt will be absent from the
hot corner, due to an injury to his
wrist Sunday. Witt may be- able TO re-
sumo play tomorrow.

the most brilliant of the trio.
The squad is in need OF plenty of
training before the Memphis game.
and Coach Springer is working the
bunch out as hard as possible to hard
en- them and to get the requisite form
for the first game. The rooters are
not going to see many new faces in
the lineup owing to the fact that
only three of the regulars graduated
last year, but they are going to see
a mighty peppery team, if preseason
stuff counts for anything.

NO CHANGE IN

Preside Mt Justice His Not Reseinded
Action in Throwing Out Musky

Games.
Notwithstanding statements in Mus
catine newspapers to the contrary.
President M. E. Justice Of the Central
association, stated today that he had
not rescinded his action in throwing
out twenty four Muscatine games for
violation of the five veteran rule, and
would not award the pennant in the
G. A. until after the national associa-
ton had acted upon the matter at its
New Orleans meeting.
The Muscatine papers state that
Justice had notified August Hermann,
chairman of the national baseball
commission that the league rule
against any club having more than
five veterans would not be enforced,
and that he asked that the matter be
dropped.
President Justice, however. an
nounces that he has not changed his
stand taken when the games were
thrown out and that no pennant would
be awarded until hearing has been
held before the national association.
President Justice will attend the
meeting Of the association.

Three Cornered Fight in
Both Leagues as Season
Nears Close

[By II. c. Hamilton, United Press
Staff Correspondent
NEW YORK, Sept. 19.-The three
cornered pennant race in the Amert-
can league may be decided in the
Tiger-Red Sox series beginning today
at Detroit.
In the meantime the three ply
struggle in the National league again
has grown tighter The Phillies are
cow only game back Of the Dodgers
and the Braves are bare game and
a half from the Phillies. With this
unprecedented situation Of triple
knot tied in the leadership Of both
big leagues tie closing days of the
pennant races promise the widest
baseball scramble in history.
The worlds championship Red Sox
hold lead Of only half game over
Detroit as those two teams meet in
their final series of the season this
afternoon. If the Red Sox can re-
peat their feat at Chicago by taking
a majority of the games, they prob
ably will go home in first place by
fair margin. On the other hand
if Detroit can pull majority of the
series out of the clutches of the Bos-
ton gang they will have the call.
But while the Tigers and Red Sox
are kicking each other around, the
Chicago White Sox in third place by
a game and half, will be getting a
crack at the much booted Athletics
and may nose their way into the lead
position over both Tigers and Red
Sox.
Cleveland Still Strong.
Cleveland still is strong enough to
offer stiff opposition and it will be
the Indians who get the next crack
at the title holders.
The Red Sox still have fourteen
games on their schedule while De-
trcit has ten and the White So1
eleven. If the Red Sox win eight and
lose six of their remaining games
their standing at the end Of the sea-
son would be SIS. If the Tigers win
six and lose four games they would
be tied for the championship. If the
White Sox win six and lose five their
standing would be .565.
If the Tigers win every one of their
remaining ten games they would

VETERANS IN LINEUP

When the curtain goes up on the
football season Saturday, Purple and
White rooters are going to see line
that really charges. This is some
thing unusual for Keokuk high
team, and seems to have been for
gotten art in the last few seasons.
In practice last night at the athletic
park, Coach Springer's forwards
showed that they knew how to charge,
and went after the freshmen squad
In fine fashion. There have been a
few men in the forward job in the
last season or two who have been
4 able to tear into their opponents but
this looks like the first year that the
line as a whole has been doing any
charging.
II the same sort of stuff is display ed
In a real game that was pulled in
practice, it won't be for lack of holes
bored in the opposing line that back
field men fail to gain.
The back field squad is showing
some classy work this early in the
rame. When Hubinger at quarter,
has had a little more experience and
mixes up his plays a little better, he
viii prove big help to the squad.
Hubby is willing and handles the
ball in dandy fashion. He has weight
and reach and ought to play coed
defensive as well as offensive game
BackfieId is Fast.
Evans is whirlwind at halfback-
He has the weight combined with
speed and when they give him the
ball. it's going to take more than one
man to stop him He gave some OF
the freshmen last night an oppor-
tunity to hold him, but it took more
than one to get him tanned. Lloyd
Roberts played half last night and
Beach went into the fullback job.
Both men showed up in good shape.
The shift was made because Willard
Roberts was out He may get back
into the game with Memphis on Sat
urday, in which case he viii likely
go into his old place at fullback.
Anderson. playing his first year Of
football, Is a mighty likely candidate
for a berth in the team. Andy is
willing and will do whatever he's
called on If he had year or two
of experience behind him he would
prove a tower Of strength to the
squad.
Huiskamp Shines Again.
Captain BUD Hulshamp is display
ing the old pep that made him a star
in the line last year. He is playing
with a bad shoulder this year, but
this fact didn't keep him from break
ing through the varsity line and nail
ing the man with the ball several
times last night in scrimmage.
Coach Springer put the freshmen in
front of the varsity, and then picked
i several of the regulars to strengthen
the holes in the freshie line. Huis-
kamp, Joy and Wells went into the
ifreshie lineup, and played against
the heavy side Of the regulars. All
three men had chance to shine,

Southbury, Conn, Dec. 2-Charles
s. Brown, aged 76., who lived alone,
was found dead in his cowpen today
by neighbor who had called to
see how he was. Death probably
had come last evening for pigs which
had had access to the pen had eaten
off one arm and hand.
Medical Examiner Samuel Green is
ill and 1t was necessary to take Mr..
Browns body to the formers home
to be viewed. DR.. Green said death
was undoubtedly due to apoplexy. 1t
Is thought an autopsy may be held
as some persons had a suspicion that
marks on the body might have been
caused by persons entering. the house.
Decision on this point will be left
with Deputy Coroner Monzani at Wat
erbury The body marks may have
been due to abrasions made by the
swine.
Mr.. Brown was father of Harry H.
