link for AS.

n VIEW YORK. September 1.-THE
M Yankees and Athletics resume
VI their warfare today at Col.
l Y Ruppert's ball park. In the 20
times the teams have met this
season the Yankees have on Is occa-
sions tasted the wine of victory. The
Mackmen do not think that this is
proper in a prohibition country and
are going to try to pass an amendment
prohibiting Higgins and his men from
doing any more celebrating at their
expense.
The Yanks are now game and a
half in the lead. BY tonight they will
either be half game in the lead or
two games and half out in front.
The worst that can happen to the
Athletics is that they will leave this
city three and half games to the rear.
The best which can happen to them is
that they will leave with lead of half
game.
Apt to Fight to Finish.
To do the latter they must beat the
Yankees today and tomorrow Such
things have happened When they do
we call them base ball miracles. The
Mackmen can trim all the other teams.
but when they meet the Yankees they
become most generous. almost refusing
to win. But even if the Yanks make a
clean sweep of the present series they
arc come distance from the flag.
With the other clubs the Yankees
have Is games left to play, distributed
as follows: five with Detroit. four with
st. Louis. three with Chicago and three
with Cleveland.
After the series here the Athletics
have IA games left to play: four with
Chicago. three with st. Louis, three
with Detroit. three with Cleveland and
one with Boston.
| To the teams outside of Philadelphia
the Yankees are just ball club. The
Yanks will have to go at top speed to
| the end of the track to keep ahead
OF the Athletics, for whom the clubs
| outside of New York have recently
been easy. The race is likely to con-
tinue until the final jump.
Only Fair Crowd Likely.
1t is not likely that the New York
Club will get any record breaking crowC
again this afternoon, but there is every
chance that it will be a big weekday
gathering. Still there is apt to be room
for all inside the grounds.
There are manv who will not object

>THROUGH at home this year, the
Nationals now have but Ia more
games to play to end their 1928
campaign. This string of con-
tests will start in Detroit on
Saturday and end in st. Louis on
September 80. 1t will consist of four
games with the Tigers. as many with
the Browns, three with the Indians and
three with the White Sox And it will
mean nothing more to the Nationals
than a chance to finish the season in
fourth place in the American League.
With three games transferred here
from Boston. the Nationals played 80
games to decision IN Griffith Stadium
this year. OF these. they won but IS.
Their winning percentage on the home
lot was .438 against the 500 pace they
have followed thus far on the road.
The Harris horde this year has been
about the poorest home club in the
circuit.
Red Sox Plain Poison"
The Nationals opened their season
here on April 10 by taking a 7-to-5
licking from the Red Sox and closed it
yesterday by taking a 5-to-2 licking
from the same outfit. In fact, this BoS-
ton club simply was plain poison to
the Washington aggregation on the To-
cal lot this year. OF the IA games it
played here. it won nine. No other of
the Nationals rivals approached that
record in Griffith Stadium.
The Browns and the Indians Jared
Noll baro tho,Iuh Eonb of fhoco rlYhc
won seven of IL engagements staged in
Washington. The White Sox took six
of IL tits here. So did the Yankees
and the Athletics. Only the Tigers
were headed by the Nationals in the
Georgia avenue yard this year. Bucky
Harris bunch beat George Moriarty's
menagerie seven times in IL starts.
The Nationals played better ball here
against the Western rivals than against
those of the East That they can show
a record of as many as 20 wins IN A
games with the visitors from the West.
however. is due to their last home stand
against this lot. During August the
Western outfits were licked here IN
eight of Is scraps. It was the poor
showing against Boston, of course, that
made the Nationals record for its tilt
ing with the East in the Capitol so
sorrowful.
No Harris Trade Yet.
Absolutely nothing to it," declared
the Washington prexy this morning
when asked about the rurnor of trade
that would send Manager Stanley Harris
end Third Baseman Ossie Rluege to De-
troit for Second Baseman Charley Geh-
ringer "I never have offered these men
to any club. nor has any club approached
me concerning them. Nothing to it,"
said Grif.
AS long ago as July 90, The Star
printed reports from the West that Har-
ris was slated for the management of
the Tigers next year. but neither Harris
nor the Detroit club had anything to
say concerning the reports The rumors
have persisted. however. So much smoke
may mean some fire.

GAIN IN TAXABLE BASIS OF
STATE

The new assessment figures, it is
reported, show an increase in the
taxable basis OF the State, exclusive
of Baltimore city, of over S1O0, ,000.-
900. This should materially reduce
the State tax rate.
OF the fourteen counties which
have reported their new assessment
figures to the State Tax Commission,
Baltimore, Montgomery and Prince
Georges show the largest increase.
Baltimore county, with gain OF
$18,O83,938, is the highest, while
Montgomery is second with $17,-
0S1,4 gain, and Prince Georges is
third, with S14, ,198,606.
All the other counties reporting
show an increase, excepting Anne
Arundel, which shows decrease in
personal property assessed.
In addition to the gain to the tax
able basis, reports from the IA
counties show the gain in the value
of securities, which brings the State
revenue of Is cents on the 500,
has jumped from $71,719,352 to
SSO,826,571-an increase OF $9,-

DOUBLE HANGING AT MARY
LAND PENITENTIARY

Benjamin F. Spragins, who was
convicted in the Hartford County
Circuit Court, Bel Air, June 1, 1922,
of breaking into the Daugherty
house at Dublin and sentenced to ten
years in the Penitentiary died on the
gallows at the Penitentiary early
Friday morning for the killing of a
prison guard in July 1927. "Coun-
Try" Carey, who was hung with
Spragins, was charged with the same
offense. Spragins and Carey shot
and killed Guard Walker in their

timore, entered the Daugherty home
and after beating Benton Daugherty
looted the premises.
They were later arrested and iden-
tified by several persons through
having driven an oddly designed au-
