New York, Sept. 12.—Patsy Bran- nigan, the Pittsburgh bantam. who is | as courageous a fighter as ever took a thump on the nose, has received ! many severe beatings during his long career in the ring. But it is ques- i tionable if the Smoky City red top ever was trounced 8o thoroughly as he was last night at the Pioneer Sport- ing club by Frankie Burns, the vet- eran Jersey bantam. Although these two battlers began ring work about the same time and have engaged In hundreds of con- tests, Burns has progressed until now he is doing the best fighting of his life. Brannigan, on the other hand, has lost speed and hitting power and retains nothing except combativeness and stamina. | The result of the meeting was that Brannigan was pounded, hammered and mauled all over the ring, was close to a knockout a number of times and was beaten to-a frazzle at the close of the tenth round.

The fading Flatbush Champs believed both games were safely “in’’ until unexpected ninth inning devel- opments altered the situation quite a bit. The Glants tied the first tiff in the njnth and then won in the tenth. 3 to 2 ,when Georgie Burns dashed a homer to the center field fence. In the second game the Giants for the third straight time subdued their for- mer chief bete noir, old Jack Coombs, the score being 2 to 1. The two Man- hattan runs were constructed in the ninth inning after Messrs. Ebbets, McKeever, Robby et al, had visions of a 1 to 0 shutout. As the best Philadelphia got in Boston was another even break, the Giants now need to win only thirteen more of their twenty-two remaining games to clinch the pennant. Should the Giants get no better than an even break on its remaining twenty- two games, the Phillles would have to win every one of their remaining twenty-two games to win the flag.

The 1817 bowling season at "the Aetna alleys ,was formally ushered in last evening when teams comprising the married and single men, of city fame, engaged in a battle royal, with the result that the Benedicts came out victorious, taking two of three games rolled. The same familiar faces of past seasons were seen in each quintet. The popular “Bill” Brennecke, he of golden locks fame, surprised his friends by again taking his place with the bachelars incidentally rolling the lowest score for his team. Century scores were numerous. and the follow- ing bowlers finished with three-string scores over the 300 mark: Foote, Hines, E. Anderson, Myers and C. Larson. Kahms and Bertini were only a few pins below that figure. The scores: Married Men. 107 83 90 91 109 108 109 119 118 91 533 492 Single Men.
