COLE INTEREST.

Boston Is seeking the amateur
golf championship tournament for
1922.
The classic has been held in Mas
sachusetts but once-in 1910, when
william c. Fownes. Jr-, copped the
title.
With the championship at St.
Louis in September, It Is natural TO
expect the scene OF the big amateur
classic will be shifted 20 the East
next year.
This precedent OF shifting the
major event OF amateur golf from
one section 10 another Is a fine thing
for tho game, as II keeps interest
keyed up everywhere

But no is between two fires. His

BY twice trOuncing the much
abused Senators, the New York
Yankees yesterday slipped by Cleve-
land into first place with a lead of
one full game. The YankS have
been doing this about once a week
since the season started, only to
relinquish the leadership to the Cleve-
land Indians again. If history re-
peats, itself the Yankees have the
pennant cinched for never in the
| history of the league has the team
which has been leading the league on
Sept. failed to win.
In the National league only one
game separates the New York Giants
from the leading Pittsburgh Pirates,
and with the Pirates tackling a series
with the st. Louis Cardinals who
have been for the last two weeks on
a winning streak with no apparent
slowing up, the race ought to furnish
some thrills. A triple play i'm their
game with Brooklyn yesterday was
the only thing that kept the Giants
from going into the lead when the
Pirates dropped two.

fight, for should they lose to the Togmak-
ers the battle for the honors will be over.
On the other hand, if Company / wins
they still have hard row to hoe as it
viii be necessary for them to win the
remaining three games, one with the
Lasters and two with Fort Drummer.
Both of these teams are out of the race
for the pennant but there remains the
question of who is to occupy the cellar
position and in order to keep on an even
keel the Lasters must also win their
game, for a loss will put them in close
touch with Fort Drummer, who has two
games to play. If the Lasters win, Fort
Drummer, by winning both of the remain
ing games, could only tie them for sec
ond place submerging Company / in the
cellar position.
There are chances for many combina-
tions as the result of these two games and
they therefore should be closely contested.
Anyhow, it's the fans last chance of the
local league season to see the Last <
