e e——— S — The Giants eliminated Plttsburgh from the National league raco yes- terday and now need to win only two of their three remaining games with Philadelphia to clinch the pennant. " There were no games scheduled in the American ue where Washington maintain two-game lead over the Yankges and to clinch the pennant need to win three of thelr final four with Boston, even if New York cleans up its four with the fast 'svelln‘ Athletics, Brooklyn did not play yesterday |, and the Giants increased their lead one and one-half contests over the Robins who, even, by taking their two remaining games with Boston, can only win the flag it the Glants lose their three with the Phillies. McGraw's team cah tie Brooklyn by winning one of the three. With Pittsburgh finally awakened to the fact the National league gon- falon i not for them this year the race narrows down to the Giants and Brooklyn. New York has three more games to play and the Dodgers two. In tho American league, Washington and New York each have four games hefore the end of the schedule is reached, Congresswoman from California will introduce olution making Walter Johnson's birthday a lezal holiday—Washington citizenry want capitol, monyment and congression- al library thrown in on the deal. Cornish fishermen, says a news note, play marbles during their spare time—This isn't as bad as it might be. Suppose they had succumbed to the Morseshoe pitching habit! Walter Hagen won another golf title which is about as sensational a hit of néws as an announcemeift that the Prince of Wales went to another dance, I'risch and Groh are out for the ccason, and the only silver lining to| this Giant cloud is that it gives Mc- Graw a convenient, readymade alibi 41 he loses the pennant. Despite the fast that this Is an advertising age, we seem to have forgotten where the next roller skat- ing championship will be held. Football note says Zuppke's of- fense is to be built around Red Grange, which is about as startling as Miller Huggins deciding to giye Babe Ruth a chance in right field. Surgeons took skin from a man's arm to make him a new pair of eye- lids—we expect a lot of baseball players will use this item in their conversations with the umpires. Berlenbach is to be given a chance at Mike McTigne—this act ought to be called “passing the cheese to Paul.” Eaglie Eye Gets Three Homers. Fagle Eye Jake Beckley, first baseman, was one of the old reliable stalwarts of the middle ages of base- ball—that is, durlng the nineties. Jake had a wicked wallop. He used it very effectively on Sept. 26, 1897, nicking Willie Sudhoff’s pitching for three nice little home runs, The score: ST.

It was bascball's first million-dol-'| lar series with the flag of victory floating atop the dlamond's costliest and greatest monument when it was raised over the Yankee Stadium. The total receipts of < $1,063,815 eclipsed by more than $100,000 the previous high figure, set by the same clubs in their 1921 series, which in- cluded two more games. The total attendance of 301,430 for the six contests displaced the old record of 269,977, also set in 1921, The fifth game of this memorable classic established new marks for a single contest. On that day, 62,817 paid $201,459 (o enter the Yankee Stadium while fully 50,000 more stormed the gates in vain, Some idea ofthe financial heights to which the game has risen may be gained from the fact that the re- ceipts for this game were greater than those for any series up to 1911 and also higher than the total in 1418 for six games, New records also were established for the size of the players’ pool with each Yankee regular carrying off $6,143.59 as the victors' share of the spolls while each Glant received $4,112,88, Detailed disposition of last year's receipts: Players' share $368 783.04 New York Americans' share ..

C, and the New Haven Blues, outplay- ing both elevens. Several of the Hilltops team were hired by the managemeént of the All-Hartfords, last season to oppose the All-New Britains in a memorable game play- ed at Clarkin fleld.
