GOTHAM SERIES
WOULD LEAD,
IN RECEIPTS
If Criffs Met Giants Total
Gate Probably Would Be
$4,000

Three clubs having a mathemati.
cal chance to win the pennants In
each Of the American and National
Leagues, it was estimated today
that baseball and the players would
benefit by a half million dollars
and upward in case both New York
teams, rather than other possible
combinations, appeared IN the world
series.
For example, II the Yankees
again met the Giants 1t is estimated
that the receipts for seven games
would total $1,24O.000 Of which
the players share would be approx
mately 1870, 900.
On the other hand, IL the Giants
played the Washington Griffmen
or Detroit Tigers the receipts prob
ably would total $SS2, 900, with the
players sharing about $685., 200.
Those estimates are based on the
capacity Of the parks in the various
cities mentioned.
Reckoned along similar lines, q
meeting between the Yankees and
the Brooklyn Dodgers or Pittsburgh
gates would produce a gate Of 81.
100000 with $500, 900 for the play.

than Dugan and is faster. And
with all due respect for Dugan's
ability as fielder, am not willing
to concede that he has anything on

For catcher / pick Hartnett Of the
Chicago Cubs, instead Of Schang, of
the Yankees. Hartnett has come
along sensationally, while Schang
Is hardly as good as he was few
years ago. Hartnett is smart, &C.
tive, very dangerous hitter and a
good thrower.
Dazzy Vance, Of course, goes on
my team as one Of the pitchers.
Ruth and / agree there. But in
stead Of Pennock for the other
pitcher I prefer Walter johnson.
Ruth gives a great deal Of the
credit for the work Of the Washing.
ton club this year to Judge and
Peckinpaugh, but 1t seems to me
that. johnson is entitled to as much
as either, II not more.
The entire Washington staff was
built around him and how it held
up is answered in the record the
team has made this season. John.
son, almost forty years old, has en-.
5oyed one OF his most successful
campaigns. He is entitled to a. place
on an all-American team and it Is
a pleasure to put him in nv Lineup
for the mythical honor.

Chaume, aged fifteen years nine

Her compatriots are taking

Stoke Poges, England, when she
carried off the girls golf cham

she did not take up the game
"in earnest until / was ten years

The Giants slaughtered the Cubs,

Heinie Groh was carried from the
field with an injured leg.
Doctor Emil Yde, noted Pittsburgh
specialist, handed Brooklyn a bitter

DETAILS,OF CONTRACTS
EXPLAINED TO CLASS
A. Fl. Lawson Lectures on I'm
portance of Clauses to Real
Estate Students.

The Importance of care in the prep
aration of sale contracts was stressed
by a. II. Lawson before the Y. NJ.
G. A. class in real estate. He point
ed out that in addition TO the or
dinary legal requirements as to COM
potency. consideration, etc, that it
was vitally important to state clearly
the price and terms 50 that there
would be no ambiguity or possible
misunderstanding. The description Of
the property was also pointed out as
being a vital portion of the contract,
and it was shown that the description
must be clear and complete so as to
exactly describe the particular prop
erty that is being sold.
In explaining the methods used in
calculating the various adjustments
incident to the closing of a real
estate transa ction, Mr.. Lawson stated
that there We're fixed debts and
credits that run with property, that
must be equitably adjusted The
purchaser is given credit for any ac-
crued charges, such as taxes or in
terest, which are payable at a later
date, and on the other hand, the
owner is charged with the proper
adjustment of rents If collected in
advance, and premium on insurance,
culated. These adjustments are made
usually on the date the property is
conveyed and in most cases are han
died through one of the local title
companies that is equipped to handle
such matters.
At the next meeting of the class
the subject of real estate financing
will be discussed by James d. Hobbs,
local realtOr.
