n YEW YORK, September 30.-The
1888 major league batting
Y championships are safe in the
hands of two Philadelphia
players, Chuck Klein and Jimmie Foxx.
Just to make a "sure thing" little
more uncertain, both Klein and Foxx
spurted in the last full week of the
campaign and lifted their unofficial
averages far beyond the reach of all
rivals. Klein, who has a stranglehold
on the National League slugging honors
as well as the base-hit crown. sent his
average up points to 372.
Foxx picked up points to gain a
1856 average. He also crashed out home

Ruth contributed one of the best field
ing plays of the day, too, when he
rumbled to the right field corner to
haul down Buddy Myers hoist in the
fourth frame.
T OU GEHRIG, the bridegroom, had
an improbable day at bat-up
four times for not a hit. He
helped his runs-responsible-f mark,
however, as he walked when the bases
were crowded to send in one score and
got another over with a long fly.
Even the visiting Giants ap-
plauded a sparkling play Bluege
made in the fifth. Ossie tore in
to scoop up with one hand
Glenn's slow one and, without
coming up, whipped to first for
an eyelash decision.
Ruth passed Goslin in their batting
battle. Getting one hit in three times
up. the Babe boosted his average to
.299, while Goslin. hitting safely but
once in four trials, fell back to .298.
Goslin must swing wicked bat in the
few more times he'll go to the plate to
avoid turning over 200 bucks to Ruth.
A fling at the Yankees today, then
the Nationals will hustle back to Wash

meet the Athletics in the wind-up of
the campaign. j. B. K.

But the club owners today were more
deeply involved in the job of trying to
unload the high-priced tickets that
mean profits for the climax Of an
otherwise lean year.
The chances of sell-outs, especially
at the Polo Grounds, appears unlikely,
although officials of both contending
clubs insist the advance sales is sat

Capacity Here $4,000.
HOWEVER, there are some $4,000

OF $3.50, $3.50 and $3.50 before the

anyway.
The capacity at Washington. includ-

field, is around $4,000. The prospects
OF a full house at the Capital seems
proportionately better than in New
York, where the big series is no novelty,
Nine years ago, when these

world championship, the top
crowd at the Polo Grounds was
49,243, for the fourth game. The
biggest turnout at Clark Griffith

customers, at the second contest.

run the gross receipts above the Million
dollar mark in the 1924 series. The
magnates will give three rousing cheers
If they can show anything in proper
ton to that total this year. 1t has been
mostly bad news financially for the club
owners in the last few years. This has
been due mainly to the disconcerting
Yankee habit of making the world
