SPORTING NOTES

| By annexing yesterdays game with
| Boston to their credit, the Chicago Amer
lean league team clinched the league
pennant automatically, since they can
lose all of their remaining games while
Boston is winning all of their remaining
scheduled games and still have the lead.
While President Frazee of the Red
Sox team has not stated that he did not
wish a post-season series with the
Braves, he has stated that he does not
see any need of them. Wagner is the
only member of the team who figured
in the last series between the two teams
and he says that the players only re-
ceived about $50, which would hardly be
worth while.
President johnson of the American
league has notified Manager Griffith of
the Washington club that the protest of
the game won by Detroit on Aug. 10 had
been allowed. President johnson upheld
Griffith in the contention that Cobb
broke the rule of not touching a player
when Burns rounded third with the win
ming run.
John McGraw, manager of the New
York National league team, has won
National league record by leading the
Giants to another pennant. This an
nexation is the sixth to be won by the
Giants under the leadership of McGraw
the years being 1904 1905, 1911, 1919,
1918 and 1917. Connie Mack has man
aged the Athletics to the championship
in the years of 1902, 1905, 1910, 1911,
1913, 1914

of the New York American league team.
has retired from baseball. He reported
at the Polo grounds Tuesday prepared
to play but was notified that he had been
for the season, and has gone
to his home in Trappe, Md. Baker and
Manager Donovan recently had a tilt be-
cause of Bakers failure to report at an |
game at Bridgeport, Conn, |
and he was indefinitely suspended. Bak- |
er's contract, which calls for $4,000, has |
another year to run.
Although Pittsburg hammered New
York for II hits in Thursdays encoun-
ter between the two teams, while the
after team was securing only nine bin
giles, the encounter was called in the 10th
inning with the score a tie.

Intangible Assets

Washington. Sept. 22.-Members o.
the ways and means committee at q
meeting with the House conferees on tn,
war tax bill yesterday were told tina;
the presence OF big business agents, de
manding retention of Senate allowances
on good will, patents and other intan'
gible assets in determining the capital
of business for taxation purposes, was
responsible for the failure of conferees
TO agree on the definition of capital, the
big point in controversy in discussion of
the war revenue bill.
Early in the conferences, House con
ferees declared, the Senate conferees ap-
peared willing to waive the provision of
their bill TO make allowances for these
intangible assets, but they have since
changed their attitude.
House members are still holding out
against making the allowances, however,
and majority of the ways and means
committee is supporting them in their
position.
After explaining the situation to the
ways and means committee, the House
conferees returned to conference.
1t was said the outlook was poor for
an early agreement on the excess profits
section.
Plans of House members who favor in
creasing the war profit tax above the
Senate rates TO bring the matter before
the ways and means committee yester
day were abandoned because the rate
section had not been reached in confer
ence
As no other meeting of the ways and
means committee is expected before the
ronferees' report is brought on the floor,
plans now are TO make the fight for high.

Athens, Sept % Correspondence Of
the Associated Press. American agri.

huge scale TO develop the rich agricul'

sally, which have lain for ages in an UNI

just been founded TO carry on this de-

plough is used by many peasants, but at
Nolo, in Thessaly, iron and steel ploughs
have been turned out for some time past.

themselves from America, and beyond 1

The formation of this new company
has resulted from this determination, en-
couraged by the government, to develop

and the other Balkan countries may
