DECIDE
 ALL CHURCH GAMES
League Closes Season With One
 Contest This Evening
Church League Standing.

All three games scheduled in the Inter-Church league last night were decided by the forfeit route. The Blue Army, for the third time in succession, failed to appear at all, and the Center church took it's game by default, tying the White Army for sixth place and dropping the Bluebirds to a tie for eighth. Not enough First Baptists were present to enable a full team to take the field, and their game with the St. Matthew's Lutherans was forfeited. kcnsington did not show up until ten minutes after the time limit and it's game was claimed as forfeited to the Trinity Methodists, who thereby finished a full game ahead of the First Lutherans in the race for sec ond place.
 The last game of the year, be- tween the Stanley Memorial team and kensington, is scheduled for to- night. The Stanmors have been skid ding badly of late but hope to stop their plunge when they meet the tail-enders. The suburanites are en- couraged by their showing in recent games and hope to close a disastrous season with a victory.
 A meeting of the board of man. agers will be held at s o'clock Mon day evening at the Y. M. c. A. At that time the affairs of the baseball league will be wound up.

JONES IN PRACTICE
Georgia Golfng Wizard Preparing to Win Third Major Title This Saa-

New York. Sept. 10 (F) - The blight of Bobby Jones' blistering golf has begun already to spread over the narrow fairways and treacher- ous hazards of the Baltusrol course at Short Hills, N. J., where the famous Atlanta amateur is prepar- ing for the national tournament next week that may set new golfing re- cords.
 The blonde Georgia youth, play ing over the course yesterday with Watts Gum, his pal and golfing en- emy from the home town, swung into the same sensational golf that brought him the national open and British open titles this year. In preparation for his attempt 10 add his third major title to the seasons list and win for the third successive year the amateur crown Bobby shot four birdies in a row at the start of the first nine holes with Gum. Although he finished the round with a 75, three strokes above par for one Of the casts most diff cult courses, the exhibition showed that the Georgia pride will be ready and waiting when 150 amateurs face the big test in qualifying rounds Monday and Tuesday. Match play will take up the remainder of the week.
 Gum, who played brilliantly through the amateur championship at Oakmont last year to fight his way into the finals with Bobby and there meet crushing defeat when friendship ended for the time be- ing, was off his game yesterday and chalked up an S1 for the IS hole practice.

Hy the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
 The west has invaded the east with two fighting teams to battle for the 1926 National league pennant, and a chance at the worlds cham pionship.
 St. Louis, leading the league and three fuli games ahead of Cincinnati near the end of the dramatic season, was matched today in the first of a series with the Boston Braves, buried deep in the cellar. Chicago, in fourth place, but with a fighting chance to gain the flag, faced a struggle with the Philadelphia ouakers, Boston's jousting mate for low honors.
 Cincinnati. after disposing of short two day series with the des- perate Pittsburgh Pirates. who top the Cubs by three small points, joins the Buccaneers in heading for the shores of the Atlantic. The Reds visit Brooklyn and Pittsburgh goes to New York. Little change took place in the standing yesterday. Cincinnati spent the day resting, far from the cracks of base hits and the roar of the frenzied fans that have shaken the first division ball yards as the leaders fought themselves In and out of the lead in the past two weeks of play. with Hornsby and his Cardinal pitching staff still perched in the Yankee grandstand gaining probable world series point CTS, Pittsburgh and Chicago resumed the fight for third place but manas ed only to split two games and drop . lone point each to the leaders.
 Joe Bush hooked up in a pitching duel with Percy Jones of the Cubs in the first game and made sure of his to 1 victory by doubling in the second inning to chase Pie Traynor and Cronin across the plate. Pitts burgh fell apart in the second, mak- ing five errors in the 10 to l de- bacle.
 Philadelphia closed the season with Brooklyn, losing F to G.. For the second time in two days ninth 1nnl0S rally StMfd up tIt Sllicp bdI yesterday was Brooklyn's turn. The Robins scored nine runs in the find frame. Cy Williams hit two homers, making a total of 20.
 The Giants nosed out the Boston Braves in an Il inning tilt, 3 to 2. after coming from behind to tie the score in the ninth.
 Clevealnd virtually gave up the ghost in the long hind chase to catch the New York Yankees. The Indians dropped eight games behind the leaders when Detroit won from them, to 1, while New York was showing the watching Cardinals how they can hit. The Red Sox, hardly a just example for demon- stration, were barbecued in round style, 10 to 0. Bob Shawkey turned in a four hit game which should interest the Cards.

W|ND.UP OF CITY
 LEAGUE TOMORROW
Burritts and Pirates Tied as
 Final Games Start

With the Pirates and Burritfs deadlocked for first place on the closing day of the regular season, the City league will wind I'D it's scheduled tomorrow afternoon at Walnut Hill park. Interest in this league is at fever heat because of the closeness of the race, and the mojority of those who follow the play are of the opinion that a play off between the leaders will be ne cessary to decide the title. If both win, this will be needed. but if either slips tomorrow the league is over.
 The two most important games will be played slmultaineously. The Buritts will meet the Specdboys at 2 o'clock on Diamond No. 1 and will have blood in their eyes. for not only do they need the game to stay in the race but they are thirst ing for revenge over the Speedboys. The latter defeated the BurrittS in the first encounter between the teams, and the team from the northwestern section of the city is out to wipe out the stain with q crushing victory Outside of that one game the Speedboys have not shown much real baseball, although they are a poppy bunch of young players and never lose heart. The Burritts have not been hitting well of late and their fielding has been somewhat awry, but they too have plenty of dash and are favorites to win tomorrow. Rose, Zembko, or possibly Zaleski will work for the Burritts, while Zale is the logical choice for the Speedboys.
 While this game is going on the Pirates will be striving desperately to down the Rangers and thereby keep pace with or perhaps even nose out the Burritts. The Pirates appeared to find themselves last week and played with greater sure ness. having good hitting, fielding, baserunning. and pitching. The Ran gers have been a woefully weak lllCItb ltdii rNil N'hi' but NitNi' fielding has been Of such a charac- ter that hits off their pitchers have been hard to make, and this last feature of their play should nave the Pirates step. Carlson will pitch for the Pirates and Casey or Jack ArEosy for the Rangers.
 At oflock the Robins and West Ends will mix it up. In the event that both Pirates and Burrits lose their games, a win for the West Ends will carry that team into D triple tic for first place, so they will work hard to take it. The West Ends are the heaviest hittors of the league, generally have good fielding, and have no pitching worries. Their opponents. however. are cratic afield. weak at the plate, and handi- capped in the box,

WASHINGTON TEAM
 GOES ID NEW YORK
Boys League Champions to Be
 Guests Of Rotary Club

The members of the Washington baseball team, champions Of the New Britain Boys Baseball league, will be the guests of the New Brit ain Rotary club on a trip to New York tomorrow. This is the prize which was held out to the teams In the league for the o1e which won the championship and needless to say there are many glad hearts to- day excited over the prospects of the trip.

 The the beginning of the present season, the sports writers who were following the play in the junior league, were requested to omit as much as possible, mention of the Rotary club in the activities of the league. The request was made be- cause the Rotary club was fearful that people in the city might think that it was a scheme 10 seek adver- Using. This wish has been complied with as far as has been possible.
 Now, however, it Is time to call the attention of the people of New Britain to the fact that the members ture ofa good sum of money has fur nished this city for two years with one of the best baseball leagues ever carried on here and as a culmination, the winning team is given the treat of the members lives with Q trip to New Y York. The members of the club all donate towards the maintenance of the league. Empires and score keepers are hired so that the games may be run off in efficient shape. Dwight Skinner has been manager of the league for two years.
 Besides this, each team has been equipped with sWeatshirts and caps indicating what the name of the was and they have also been furnished with bats and catchers gloves, chest protectors and masks. The baseballs for the games have been furnished throughout the year by the Rotary club
 Tomorrow's program will be as folloWs:-Leave the Burritt Hotel at 6 o'clock in the morning by a Pull man bus. Arrive at Bronx park in New York and there be escorted through the zoo by head keeper Too mey.
