Of late Brooklyn hasn't been any too strong in these important series. The Robins lost three out of four to Boston at home and five in a row to the Phillies. Having beaten Brook lyn five times running, the Phillies quite naturally believe they can take at least two out of three with AleXan- der on hand to insure one victory and with Demaree and Rixey to go after the other two
 All in all it's a complex situation that may not be settled until the middle of next week or even until the final game.

The Brooklyn Philadelphia Dope.

To be fairly sure of the flag Brook lyn must win four of her last seven games. This means two out of three from Philadelphia and two out of four from New York-an assignment that is in no sense a soft and woody undertaking.
 finishing first must take six of her last nine games; two from Brooklyn ard four from Boston. But if Phila- delphia can take two from Brooklyn, she may be able to get by with three games from Boston if the Giants should make it four straight

RrOokIyn's Tough Wind-Up.

Brooklyn faces a tough finish, but she has no kick coming. For she has it in her power to sew up the race by beating her main rivals all three games.
 Then again Brooklyn can't well forget that the Giants recently beat the Phillies four straight So if Me- Graws spell binders wrench off four straight from Brooklyn they will be only handing Brooklyn the same > dainty dish they handed Brooklyn's leading rival. Which is fair enough.

 in connection with the affair which opens next Monday. The ability of
 the local horseman in judging inn

 There will be an exceptionally large number of horses in each of thej principal events, the added size of theV purses and the fact that there will be racing on five successive after moons, instead of three as was the case last year, has induced many of the large stables to ship their entire string to the Danbury Fair.

New Haven, Sept. 2S.-Coach Tad Jones' policy of throwing eleven po- sitions on the Yale team open to the freest competition has resulted in a tryout of new candidates for prac- tically every place. Of the veterans Gates, end, and Captain Black, left guard, have been out of the lineup nearly all the week, while substitutes in quick succession have been thrown into the rush line daily. Following Gates and Rosener, who began the season as ends, COmerford and Lynch and next Nichols and Connolly have been used for outpost duty.
 Jones has given no indication what ever of the final selection of the end pair, although the rapid i'm provement of the third string set, Nichols and Connolly, has created the impression that they have live possi- bilities, although the first two named pairs have been regarded as up to Yale's usual standard.
 All the line coaches have com plained of the scant material for the tackle positions and the unsatisfac- tory quality of the guard material. Charlie Taft and Howard Balbridge have been used in the tackle posi- tions, Cox, the former freshman tackle, having been relegated to the second eleven.
 Jones has tried half a dozen candi- dates for quarterback. Van Nostrand, E. l.. Smith, Potter, Robinson and Ames have been tried out during the week.
 Jones has kept the veteran varsity backfield-Bob Bingham, Harry Le- Gore and Rex Hutchinson, veteran

 to CinCh Pennant for Boston

Boston, Sept 2S.-An exciting ten inning to victory over the New York Yankees helped to make the re- turn of the Red Sox to their native hearth quite a celebration here yes-, terday About 12,000 fans came out to make merry and praise the Hub lads for their game fight in Chicago and Detroit, where they won the American League flag right from Gn- der the noses of their western adver- saries. All the resentment felt here in the spring when Joe Lannin sold Iris Speaker has gone and the Red Sox again are as strong favorites here as ever before
 The worlds champions fought hard for yesterdays game, as they are anxious to clinch their pennanC as soon as possible. If they win two more games they can do no worse than tie the White Sox for first place. Three more victories will clinch the 1916 title, provided Chicago wins four straight from Cleveland. If the White Sox lose any games Boston's task will be correspondingly easier.
 Capt. Jack Barry, who has been out of the game for almost a month with a broken hand, was in uniform yes- terday and appeared on the coaching lines. Jack had been in Brooklyn watching the Dodgers but left them fiat. There still is some doubt wheth- CT Jack will be able to get back in l the game by the time the big series starts on October 6, but his appear- ance in uniform was taken as a good omen E. The score:
