Good Time by Motorcycles

Trenton, n. j.. Sept. 30.--The largest
last days crowd in the history of the
Interstate Fair was disappointed yes
terday afternoon when the rain put q
stop to the automobile racing after

Two motorcycle races were decided

AMERICANS SURE;
NATIONAL CLOSE
Boston Wins Decisive Game;
Two Battles Between Phila-
delphia and Brooklyn

Chicago, Sept. 80. The Boston
Americans to-day appeared reasonably
sure of being a contender in the
worlds series but in the National
League the outcome was just as un-
certain as 1t has been for several days,
Brooklyn and Philadelphia being
practically In a, tie for first place.
Brooklyn has the lead by a tech
nical half game. although in the per-
centage column, Philadelphia by rea-
son of having played fewer games ap-
pears only a small fraction behind,
the standing being Brooklyn sos and
Philadelphia .607. Boston is prac-
tically out of the race. Brooklyn and
Philadelphia play two games to-day
and then New York goes to Brooklyn
for four games while Philadelphia
and Boston are playing six game
series.
The Boston Americans was the only
team In either league which escaped
the rainstorm yesterday and the re-
suit put them one game nearer the
championship. In order to win the
American League pennant Chicago
must take the four remaining games
with Cleveland and Boston must lose
her four games still on the schedule,
one with New York and three with
Philadelphia. Detroit has been elm
mated from the pennant contest.
president b. B. johnson, of the Am
erlcan League, has ruled that clubs
may play off postponed games as late
as next Wednesday. although the

President John X. Tener
Defends Dodger Owner

New York, Sept. S0.-The manage
ment of the Brooklyn team has been
unjustly criticised in the matter of
seat prices for the world series games,
as the prices were fixed by the ma
tional commission. according to a
statement made here to-day by John
X. Tener, president of the National
League.
THE prices that have been an
nounced in Brooklyn We're determined
by the national commission at a meet
ing held in Cincinnati September Is
to arrange a tentative schedule" Mr..
Tener said. THE commission allowed
some latitude to the Brooklyn and De-
troit clubs in the matter of SIS seats
because of their limited grandstand
and box seat capacity and because of
the added fact that all seats listed at
IS in each park were as choice in loca-
tion as regular box reservations. This
consideration and allowance We're also
made in other parks of the same char
acter in previous world series games"
