The Yankees and Giants defen- ants in baseball's Trojan war, en- joy the smiles of the watching gods today in their efforts to retain the game's fairest prize, the world's series, captured and carried here three seasons back. Forced from their position by Washington, the raging Achilles of the combat, the Yankees took the field after being informed by the Oracle that the team which lost the fewest games would win the batle.] Huggins yesterday went into a tie with Washington for first place by winning from Chicago, 2 The Senators, vulnerable only in Detriot, its eems, lost their second successive game to the Tigers, who made a clear gain of one contest and are now only four games behind the two leaders. The score was also 2 to 0. At the National League gate the Giants face a double problem—The Robins, who strike from within, and the Pirate ship, which aproaches in the harbor without. Both Robins and Giants rested yesterday to grid for the corsairs, who are making ev!- dence preparations to slaughter both in two series which began at Ebbets field and end at the Polo grounds on the follawing Wednesday. The advancing ‘buccaneers com pleted their sack of bose yesterday by winning the third straight game, 4 to 3, 1n 12 innings. Pitsburgh now trails the Robins by one and one half games, and the Giants by two and one half. ‘The have 16 games to play, New York has 13 and Brooklyn 11. The Bronws defeated the Red Sox, 4 to 3, in the only game played among the distanced clubs in both leagues.

THE TRIBUNE’S PAGE OF SPORTING N bale, oclocK SENATORS FURNISH THRILL FOR FANS By HENRY L. FARRELL (United Press Sports Editor.) NEW YORK, Sept. 16.—Whatever happens to, the Washington Sena- tors in the American league pen- nant race, they must be given credit for furnishing a great public thrill and foreshowing a lot of ex- perts that form is a fickle founda- tion for predictions, If the Senatore should pull through to the pennant they will be one of the most ponular champions the ever wentNnto a world’s series. Up and down both major league cireuits well wishes for young Buck Harris and his hustling club have been heard on all sides. The reason for the popularity of the team is not hard to find. He is Walter Johnson, the grand old pitcher and the most popular player in Easeball. Johnson has one of the finest records a pitcher ever made and he has a personality that has always been a credit to the geme. Johnson never has been in a world series, and it is the fond wish of all baseball that he has at least one crack at big glory before he has to retire, Not one expert in the business of Picking positions in the spring gave the Senators ‘a tumbie. They were looked upon as first division timber that was more likely to disappoint than to surprise form in the hands of a boy manager, Buck Harris. Detroit and Cleveland were ex- pected to give the Yankees what little, trouble they would encounter ‘in another jaunt pennantward.

Miller Huggins, manager of the Yankees and Ty Cobb, pilot of the Tigers, figured that Buck Harris had the team playing way over its head and that in a hot pen- nant race the club naturally would have to seek its own level. ‘The Senators were helped by fine pitching, by timely hitting and by the hustle that Harris inspired in them. Of all the teams that played in the Yankee stadium, the Sena- tors looked and acted more like champions. They are a game ball club and a fighting ball club, and if they get through in first place there can be rb element of luck blamed for the feat. y Cobb had a lot of bad luck in the last lap of the race. iF At the most critical time, when the Yanks were in the grip of a panic, Cobb lost Lu Blue, one of the best first basemen in the league, ani he couldn't replace him. The effect on the team was bad, as it seemed to break the players’ spirit and they went almost to pieces in the grip of a terrible slump. The Yankees, of course, were the big disappointment of the season, but to close Observers of the game, their collapse was no surprise.

Foster, Special Baseball Correspondent of the Casper Tribune, 811 World Building, New York. Most of the critics expected the Giants to have a fight in the Na- tional league, but the fight didn't come from the quarters expected. John McGraw insisted tt time he took his champions td’ theli Florida training camp last spring that the Pittsburgh Pirates was the club) he had to beat. Most of the critics figured that the Cincinnati Reds were the most powerful team on paper in the league, and. even after the club was handicapped by the death of its popular manager, Pat Moran, it was figured that the players were old enough and expert- enced enough with the theories of Moran baseball to go through almost on momentum under the direction of a new, manager, Jack Hendricks, who was ‘so thoroughly in sympathy with the departed manager. There is little doubt that the Reds would have done better in the race and might have won the pennant if they didn’t have one succession of injuries and bad breaks which kept them from having their full strength on the field for more than half the season. It was a great surprise when the Giants turned into August with a lead of nine games. They were run- ning along so smoothly that the race was considered “in” by the ex- perts. Then another surprise came when the champions hit the rocks and when the Pirates stepped out with one of the most sensational winning spurts of the season. These surprises were nothing com- pared to the shock that came when the Brooklyn Robins started to tear through the league. Helped by some of the finest pitching in both leagues from the great Dazzy Vance and Burly Grimes the Robins turned into a dangerous pennant contender and complicated the whole situation. There is less than a month to go, and in that time most anything can happen. The pennant races may not be decided until sthe last games on the schedules, That, of course, helps business.
