TOLEDO Ohio, Sept. 21.-Folks

future may Tive on underground
roads, live in underground homes
and work in underground offices as
a result of the development of the
science of ventilation orTelectrical
air control, according to w. S.
Currier, head of the United States
Weather Bureau in Toledo.
That will be one way of rett:ng

pointed out.

wonders have been accomplished
within buildings.

drops as the day progresses, if the
sun is shining. Capacity of the air
to form moisture goes up with the
temperature. An ideal climate,

a temperature Of So and moisture
below so. Air motion plays a big
part.
Moisture is good for vegetation,
but not. so good for animal life.
The lake regions, naturally, have
more moisture in the air than other
sections of the country. Moisture
brings about the sticky feeling.
People often don't realize it's hot
until the thermometer reminds
them"
Currier had a good laugh over the
suggestion that climates are chang
ing or moving around.
Not within the life of any man

THREE sTREAKs HELPED

NvI HILE the situation is not quite
NV as desperate for the Yankees,
0 there is a strong chance that
Manager Higgins and his athletes
will be forced to do considerable wor-
rying until the final series. If not the
final game of the season.
The Yankees have been a peculiar
team this year at times very good
and often not so good.
AS a matter OF fact, the Yankees,
only because of three sustained win
ming streaks of s. II and 16 games,
have managed to keep out in front.
Eliminate those three runs of con-
secutive wins and the club hasn't
been so very impressive.
In this connection the uncertainty
OF baseball has been decidedly in
evidence. IL there is one thing the
Yanks can do it is hit the ball, yet
in the home stretch. failure to hit
has been the clubs greatest handi-
cap.

Hog prices continued on down:

day, values being quoted at from Is

the hogs, together with heavy runs,

The feeding of green corn to the

because of the sickness.

Says
NTHE PENNANT SITUATION

7T now seems practically
certain that both major
league races will go to the
final series, if not the final game of
the season. before d decision is
reached as to the two pennant win
pers.
The National League race has
been a hectic affair since the open-
ing of the season. 1t has row
narrowed down to practically two
clubs, st. Louis md Cincinnati.
In the American League the com
manding lead of ten games that New
York enjoyed with about forty to
play, has been whitfield away unit,
Cleveland has a mathematical chance
to win.
1t is more than probable that the
National League race may be de-
cided on the/final day Of the season,
so close is the struggle.
And it is a strange coincidence
that the schedule of the National
League has st. Louis playing Cincin'
natl in the latter city on the final
day of the race. Sunday, Sept. 26.
49,
MAY REQUIRE PLAY-OFF
If there is no greater margin than
one game when these two clubs
meet. the outcome of that contest
will be most important.
Should there be a one-game mar.
gin, it will be possible for the team
that is a game away to tie up the
race by winning. This would neces.
state a play-off to decide the Ma
tional League championship.
In case the two clubs were tied
when they meet at Cincinnati. on the
outcome of that one game would
hinge the struggle that has lasted
throughout the summer for pennant
honors.
There has been only one tie race
in the history Of the major leagues.
That was the 1908 campaign in the
National when Chicago and New
York ended all even. rTt
That was the season New York
got nothing better than a tie out OF
a game with Chicago. which it had
apparently won. Fred Merkle's fail
ure to touch second created the sit
uation.
At the present writing it looks
very much as if the National League
race would hinge on the final game
Of the season between the two con
tenders.
