RACES
 ARE ABOUT OVER
Pennant Winners in 1929 Will
 Probably Play in Series \

New York. Sept. 5 (UP)-The two major league pennant races seem- ed ended today and if the Phila- delphia Athletics and Chicago Cubs get an even break in their remain ing games, the two 1929 pennant winners should enter their second consecutive world series.
 With a 6 1-2 game lead in the American league the Athletics can feel reasonably certain of capturing the flag if they win nine of their re- maining IS games. If the Athletics win half their games, Washington would have to win IS out of it's re- maining 2 to beat out Philadelphia.
 In the National league the Cubs. with 1-2 game lead over the New York Giants and St. Louis Cardinals, have 21 games left to play. If the Cubs win II and lose 10, the Giants or Cardinals would have to capture 17 out of their remaining 22 games to finish in front of the Cubs.
 Although mathematically still in the race. the Brooklyn Robins have definitely given up their pennant hopes and are struggling to hold a first division berth. The Robins are games behind the Cubs, and have only 21 games left to play
 If the Cubs won only l 0 out of their Fl games, the Robins would have to win 17 out of their 2l games to finish ahead, provided the Giants and Cardinals dropped out of the running.
 The following tables show the standing of the leaders, game behind and games left to play in the two nennant races.-
