A’S HAVE TAKEN 10 OF 16 GAMES PLAYED THIS YEAR Teams Have Only Six More Tilts Scheduled. Con- nie’s Men Hammer Quartet of Local Heavers for 16-7 Verdict Yesterday. HILADELPHIA, June 27—Wh ile the American League race is not yet hali finished, a curious quirk of the schedule results in the startling find that Washington is almost through playing the Ath- letics this year. There are only six more games to be played together by these two teams, three in Washington and three in Philadelphia, near the end of the season. League season. Including the series that ended The games here actually close the local American yesterday, Washington and the Ath- lethics have met seventeen times this year, the Athletics winning ten and the Griffs six, while one was a drawn the Athletics beat the Griffs twelve more games to pl showing. The series closed was v, the Macks bel the two teams just not favorable to the Griffs. Including the Sunday game in Washington the o teams wrestled on the grass five days, the Athleti, winning three encounters. Nobody at Shibe Park, Connie Mack and the Athletics them- selves, expected to win yesterday game. The Griffs were leading by six big runs at the end of the second inning, and when you give Walter Johnson a lead like that there is nothing much to the gam. Nevertheless the Macks dazed the iffs by scoring five runs In third inning, which made it a ball game. Then two innings later they stormed the old master off the tee, 4when Galloway singled and Riconda tripled. Macks Continue Attack.

With the. victory goes the base ball champlonship of “the bix three,” both teams having previously beaten Har- vard. Yale has won from its tradi- tional rivals this spring in base ball, crew, track, tennis and horse polo. Ray (Ducklae) Pond, the Yale soph- omore and former star athlete at Hotchkiss, and Charlle O'Hearn shared the honors for the New Haven team. “Duckiae’” held the heavy hitting Princeton batters to four hits and won his fourth victory within ten days, defeating Princeton twice and Harvard twice. O'Hearn, in his five trips to the plate, made four hits, one going for two bases, and a sacrifice fly. His single in the third inning, scoring Pond and Joe Oed, placed Yale in the front for the remainder of the after- noon. In the fifth, with the bases filled, the former Exeter man hit a long fly to Charlie Caldwell, pushing Pond across the plate. Bob Carney pitched the entire game for Princeton and was touched for nine hits. He was a trifle wild at times, giving five bases on balls and hittng two Yale batters. i X 0020380000591 Foirston.. 0.0 1000000140 Batteries—Pond snd Mallory; Carney and Stinson.

FOSTER. N EW YORK, June 27.—Everything today points to the fact that both tional and American leagues are going to run into the port of July 1 with their old championship races so much like the contests of 1922 that a man who had been asleep for a vear would wake up and never know he had been nodding. New York clubs force attention on themselves because nothing else in_either league more than barks at them. The Nationals are not pleased with their championship pow wow, but if owners and manager can’t put thr wgh any better combinations than they have, by which to swat the Giants in the noodle with a stuffed club, they shouldn‘t thrown the blame on fate.

The game was played on what is said to be the sportiest and most pic- turesque course in the country, a site formerly the bottom of a great lake, with canyons and plateaus comprising what are now the playgrounds of Salt Lake City people. President Harding's best drive was made upon the edge of a high precipice to a green 240 yards away In the can- yon beneath. He was on the green in 1 and down in 3. —_— Timely hitting by Hudson and Reith and the hurling of Bond gave the W. F. Roberts nine a 7-to-2 victory over the Seamen Gunners.
