the American League today by
disposing of their arch rivals, the

The game was played in an inter-

q dispiriting effect on the Browns.
They played loosely behind Wright,
damaging errors by Tobin, SEVERED
and McManus contributing much to
the Yankee total of runs. Wright
and his successor. Bayne. were found
for thirteen hits, which, mixed with
defensive lapses and the ability OF
the Yanks to take liberties with Seve-
reid's arm, gave the home team an
early lead. ."...
Although yielding ten safeties,
Mays blanked the Browns through
the seven innings. thanks to his abili.
ty to tighten in the pinches, ana
three double plays, engineered by

Der 80. a.. .... e..
For several years the Maroons
have suffered from having very light
material, but both the line and back
field will have plenty of weight this
fall. Logan, Couk, the Potter
brothers, and Davies all tip the
scales at around 200. At present II
appears that the team that will fight
to carry the Roanoke colors to vic.
tory will average close to 10 pounds.
From reports that have been re-
ceived by the athletic authorities a
squad Of at least fifty will be candi.

men have had at least high school
experience. The fight for positions
will he the warmest ever waged on
the Maroons' gridiron, with Logan,
White, Lifts, w. Potter. G. Potter,
Giesen, Bum. ould, Bissinger, Rice,
Davies, and Massengill competing Tor

struggle will be no less intense

BY DAVIS ]. WALSH.

iAYEW YORK, Aug. 26.-Re-
IN duced to cold statistics, the
~ National League race, or
what is left Of It, figures as moth
ing more than a cake-walk for the
New York Giants. Six and one
half games in front and travelling
light, the McGraw entry will have
to collapse completely during its
remaining thirty-five games for
any of the Western contenders to
have q white mans chance.
The Giants could breeze through
the remainder of the campaign with
record of twenty won and fifteen
lost and even at this pace any Of
the other outfits would have to play
800 baseball to finish the race In a
tie with the champions.
This business Of 800 performances
is not being done with any frequen-
cy. II would mean that the st. Louis
Cardinals could lose only eight games
in the thirty-four they have sched-
uled: the Cubs seven games I'm thirty
three; the Pirates six in thirt' our,
and the Reds five in thirty-tw

The Giants win certainly. do no

a handful of salt in John McGraw's
coffee. s.1 ~
Granting that they do that well,
they will finish the season with a
record of ninety-three games won
against sixty-one lost, for a percent
age of .604. II should be a great
plenty. But IL they play 500 baseball
for the rest of the season, which is
hardly conceivable, winning eighteen
games and losing seventeen, their
record on the year would be ninety
one won and sixty-three lost, thus
putting 1t up to the Cardinals TO lose
only ten games to get q tie, the Cubs
nine, the Pirates eight and the Reds
seven.
Develop Flat Wheels.
Still another would have the pace
settlers suddenly develop a fiat
wheel and come into the wire with
a record of Is won and 20 lost for
a matter of SS won and Sc lost in
the final returns. An unforeseen
debacle of this kind would give
some Of the others fighting
chance, no more.
It would constrain the Cardinals to
win 21 out Of "a to get tie, the
Cubs 21 out of 33, and the Reds %
out Of 80. Can they do II? You
answer that one by asking another,
to wit: Can Roscoe Arbuckle break

II Roscoe can, the Giants may
experience some little trouble In
