Crucial Series I'm
Cleveland ThurSdav
Chicago White Sox and Indians Expected to Decide
League Championship In Games Starting On Iris
Speakers Lot-Broo1lyn Keeps Winning
By III. G.. Hamilton.

New York, Sept. 21-The most
crucial series is yet to be played APP
parent1y. Unless some distance is
placed between the White Sox and
the Indians today or tomorrow the
American League pennant is very
likely to be decided in the series of
three games between these two teams
which starts Thursday in Cleveland.
In view of the fact that Cleveland
is playing Boston and Chicago is en-
tertaining the Athletics some of the
gap between the clubs may even be
whitfield down, for the dope indicates
that Cleveland stands a much better
chance of being beaten by the Red
Sox than do the White Sox at the
hands of the Connie Mack outfit. AL
SO Chicago has been making a firm
and decided stand on the home lot.
The Yanks are not out of the race,
yet, considering merely the figures.
They are a game and a fraction in
the rear of the White Sox, who are
about the same distance back of the
Indians. The Yankees have played
more games than either, and there
fore have fewer left to dispose of.
The Indians have to meet st. Louis,
Chicago and Detroit before they are
through. The White Sox face C1eve-
land, Detroit and st. Louis, ending
their season in the latter city.
The Reds took some joy out of life
for Manhattanites when they wallop-
ed the Giants in the second number
of a double bill while the Dodgers
They gained slightly on the pursuing
Giants, if you can call five games and
a half in the rear a pursuit.
The Dodgers lay off today while
the Giants and Reds take each other
by the threats again. Tomorrow the
Braves will visit the Dodgers and the
Cubs will be back for farewell call
at the Polo Grounds.

Wants Congress To Act
In Baseball Betting

Chicago, Sept. Fl - Ban Johnson,
president of the American League
will ask Congress to enact a law at
its next session. making betting on a
baseball game a penitentiary offence.

that this law be made severe as
possible and worded so as to eliminate
all baseball pools. Only in this way,
he said, could gambling be definitely
eliminated from baseball.
THE federal government should in
terest itself in this matter" said

impressive victory over Sure, Nurse
