In both the American and Ma.
uonal leagues the battle will ex.
tend down to the final game. In
the junior circuit, the battle has
been heated from the first day,
ana even in the last two weeks Of
play, three teams still have a
chance to win the pennant. In
the National League, the warmth
OF the battle comes In the final

The Giants, after maintaining
q big lead over most of the
season, fell hard, and both
Pittsburgh and Brooklyn now
are battling them for the lead.

OF whether the Yankees and Giants

leagues since 1908, with the ex.
ception of 1904. OF this number,
the American League has won
twelve series to eight for the
National.

Washington is making its great
est bid for an American League
championship. Under the rule of
Stanley Harris, the twenty-seven-
year-Old manager, the Mats have
come from no place to pennant
contender. Every fan is interest

young Harris. But what attracts
them most is the fact that after
sixteen years i'm the big leagues,
Walter johnson may at last have
the opportunity OF pitching in a
world series.
1t has been fifteen years since
Tyrus Cobb last was seen in a
