THE PENNANT RACE
Try United Pre~s.)


New York, Aug. 21.-With both the
Yanks and the Giants back on their
feet and i'm first place again, it begins
to look as though tthe New York
athletes might do the entertaining
again this fall in the worlds series.
The Ganks, in two-club race, look
to be better prospects at the present
time than the Giants who have three
clubs right on their heels.
Babe Ruth has found his eye and
when the Swat King is working the
fanks get there. Higgins is getting
his pitchers around in shape and he
has plenty of them.
The Yanks played the best ball in
the league last week, winning four
out of six games. The Browns had a
heavy week and Succeedde in getting
an even split in ten games. Detroit
hit q snag and dropped four out Of
seven games while the Cleveland In
dams picked Up little and won four
out of seven games. The White SoX,
which threatened for several weeks,
dropped five out of eight games and
looked to fade from the pictures. The
YankS have a harder finish to make
than the Browns because the schedule
put Higgins up against the necessity
of whipping all the better clubs while
the Browns will finish on the second
division teams. The Yanks also have
to finish on the road, but they made
such a good showing on their last trip
that travelling does not look like a
big handicap to them.
New York, Pittsburg, st. Louis,
Chicago and Cincinnati all have a
chance to win the national league pen
nant. They have all taken their turn
m looking like the dark horse and
right now the Cubs are making a
great bid.
The hitting of Grimes, Hollocher
and Miller. and good pitching from a
fine bunch Of young hurlers are keep
inv the Cubs in the race.
Chicago won seven out of eight
games last week. while the Cards and
the Pirates were cracking. The Cards
dropped five out of six games and the
Pirates lost six out of eight games.
breezed along, winning four
out of five games and closing in on
the leaders.
Pat Moran says he could win the
peunant with some good pitching, and
the game problem applies to the other
The chances of the Giants
who won four of their six games last
week, depend entirely on what McGraw
