Given Battle by As.
After a four-nionth duet with the
Athletics that was one o. the most
thrilling i'll the annals o. Tile ma jor
leagues, the Nationals have had COM
paratively easy S;iIiinS toward their
second successive circuit championship
since August II. Following the
collapse OF the AS, whose showing
was one OF the sensations of the cam
pafgn, 1t was only a question OF time
when Bucky Harris and company
would repeat as title winners. And
yesterday they made their triumph Il
mathematical certainty.
After the Athletics. Nationals and
Indians had each taken turn at
leading the league during the early
stages of the season, Mats and AS
went into d first place tie on April 27.
Several days later the Nationals took
the lead and on May > the Indians
went to the front.
On May the Nationals beat the
Red SoN to tie for the lead the Indians.
who were held to a draw by the
Tigers. The AS made it a three
cornered tie the next day. The dead
lock lasted until May s. when the
Nationals bowed to the White SoX and
the Athletics gained undisputed pos
session of first place by trouncing the
Tribe. Thereafter the first-place
battle was solely between Griffmen
and Mackmen.
Mack'S crew was a game ahead on
May 10 and by May Is had increased
It's advantage TO TWO and one.half
games, It's lead was decreased to
two games on May 1G, when the Ma
tionals beat the Indians ard rain kept
the Macks idle in Chicago. On May
10 the Nationals moved to within
game of the top by trimming the
Tribe as the AS fell before the White
Sox, but Connie Mack's bunch raised
its advantage to two games the next
day, when it beat the Browns while
the Tigers bumped the Nationals.

Macks Lengthen Lead.

on May ~ the AthieticS ienEthened
their advantage to three games. Home
from a rough Western tour, the Ma
tionals beat the Mackmen here on
May &c to reduce the leaders, ad-
vantage to two games and cut it to
one the next day in Philadelphia with
stirring 10-to-9 victory. But in
Shibe Park on May IS the Macks
trimmed the Griffs in double header
to resume a three-game lead.
The biggest lead which the Ath-
letics were able TO get during the en-
tire season was four games, and that
was the margin that separated them
from the Nationals after the games
Of May so. The Nationals trounced
the Athletics here on Sunday, May
81. to bring themselves within three
games o. the top, and the Macks were
left with only Il tWo-Game lead after
the games of June /, in which they
lost to the Red SoX and the Nationals
beat the Yankees.
Through June the struggle was
keen. The Athletics assumed a lead
of three games on June >. but by
June II their adva ntacs had been
cut to a game and a half. On June
IA the Macks were only half a game
In front, but on the following day they
increased the margin to a full game
III &C udS - IdleT CneN were Two
games ahead and on June u thev
widened the gap to two and a half
games.
Then came that crucial fiye.esme
series between Griffs and Macks. In
Philadelphia on June &c the Machs
were beaten. but they won the next
day, so the Griffs opened a three-dav
stand here on Sunday, June IS. still
two and one-half games behind the
pace-setters. The Nationals swept
that series, winning 6-1. Al and 10.
with Walter Johnson allowing the
