BASEBALL APPROACHING GREATEST FINISH OF ALL AMERICAN FINALS Hard Campaigning In Next Two Weeks May Change Entire Complexion In Both Leagues — Cubs Yes- terday Score Triumph Over Leading Cardinals— Giants Take Another Double Header From Boston Robins Blank Phillies — White Sox. By the Associated Press. the baseball stretch as major league teams thunder on toward what now | looks like the greatest dual finish | p since the memorable scason of |0 Merkle's failure to touch second. |{! Detroit won Ban Johnson's pennant | ;. by half a game 20 years ago while | the Cubs broke a tie in the stand- ing Vith the Giants only by defeat- ing the clan McGraw, 4 to 2, in play-off the day after the regular season closed. Hard campaigning in the next two weeks may loosen the 1928 races, but for the moment anyhow, John Heydler's three contenders are more | closely bunched than were the Giants, the Cubs and the Pirates at a corresponding stage of the 1908 struggle. The American league to- day has only two teams in the run- ring against the four which battled 20 years age, but the Yankces and the Atbletics promisc to make up in drama what they lack in num- bers. The National league situation be- came even more lense yesterday when Sheriff Fred Blake led the Cubs to a 6 to 1 triumph over the |Fa pace-setting Cardinals as the Gl:m(a;"r;‘ swept a third straight doubleheadel o from under the nose of Rogers |y Hornsby at Boston. The M | st Br McGraw- | Fi men took the opened, cased up be- ! lind Larry Benton's fine pitching, |y 12 to 2, and then fought to the fin- ish for the second, 7 to 6. This turn of events hauled the Giants up to within one and one-| halt games of the Cardinals, with| the Cubs only half a game further (B down the list in third place. dhe B American league situation remained | unchanged, of course, with bLoth of | the leaders idle and the Yankees on top by & margin of one and one-halt | games. le Blake not only held the Cardinals | Be to four hits, but collected halt th number with his own bat as Cuyle English and Harinett led g vicious | assault upon old Clarence Mitcnell | und Sylvester Johrson.

The game, specially arranged pluy-off of a postponement at Chi-| cas0 On August 29, was started at 1:30 o'clock before 45,000 fans, the recyrd National league mid-week gathering. The victory gave the Cubs zn even division of their I games against the Cardinals, Im- mediately atter the game both teams | rushed to a special train which bore ! . them east for their final invasion. The Giants continued their hard hitting at Boston, getting 16 safe | Jol Grives in the opener and 15 in the ilv', nightcap. Leslie Mann and Travis Jackson punched out homers early in the first clash, making ‘Benton's road all' the more easy to his 24th victory and his 26th complete game. Jdoe Genewich, Jim Laulkner and Carl Hubbell were called upon be- fore the second victory was tossed into the Giant bat ba In the remaining National lcague engagement yesterday, the :obnvls closed out their season’s business in Philadelphia by winning 10 to 0. Jim Elliott duplicuted \\‘u\sou‘. Clark’s feat of entering the box with | Cll only 48 hours' rest to give the Phils |, six hits. The two teams have one|; more game ugainst each oth o final day of the season in Brooklyn. ho! If the Giants can sweep their re- maining double header against the Braves today they not only will have set @ new major league record tor| all tiine in winning four consecu- tive bargain bills, but will have ex-| acted their tull toll from the two| tai-enders aficr a rather poor start| against Loston in particular. The | Giants already have closed out ihis season’s series against the Phillies with 17 victories and no defeats and to date has won 14 and lost only six in competition against Boston. The Giant cheeftain always held that pennants were won not from rival contenders but from second di- | vision clubs which yielded the vic- | tors their margin. On this hasis, the | Cardinals should take the flag, sin they are certain to perform at lea a shade better against the Bray and the Phiis than the Giants have performed, but this may be one pen- | p; nant to be decided on hand-to-hand | fighting. The Cardinals now face the plea ant prospect of five games in Phil delphia, but next m th Polo Grounds for a double-hcader on September 20 and a single game two later.

Y., Sept. 14 (®— With the youngsters of American tennis following the lead of the vet- eran, Francis T. Hunter, and giving the invading Frenchmen asgood as they send, the American survivors in the national champlenship tour- nament, now in its crucial stages, today saw a chance of the first All- American final since the coming of the French in 1926, This optimistic outlook is due ffom two of the most glorious days of triumph for the home talent that have been recorded in the recent history of Franco-American court warfare. Except for Hunter the heroes of this totally unexpected of- fensive have been American boys in their teens or just nut f them, while the victims were members of the trio-color's famous quartet of “musketeers.’ Perhaps inspired by the great vie- tory of Hunter over Jean Rorotra the previous day, Frank Shields, 18 vear old junior champion of the United States, eliminated Jacques Brugnon of France yesterday in a quarter final match by scores of 7-5, 6-1, 6-0. Then, a little later, Greg- ory Mangin of Newark, N. J., took the opening set from the great Cro- chet, favorite for the champlonship. A shower came along about that time and halted play, but Mangin was leading by 6-4 and 0-1. in the second set, with considerably more than half a chance to spring the biggest upset of the tournament and one of the greatest on record any- where by putting out the champion | of France, Hunter, too, was headed for vic- tory when rain interfered. He led Jack Crawford, the young Austra- lian, 7-5, 3-6, 6-3. 1f Hunter and angin can drive head to victory the semi-final round will be an all- American one, as Crawford and Co- chet are the only remaining for- eigners. Play in these matches is to be resumed this afternoon at 3 o'clock Wwith the score as it was when interrupted. Except for an- other of those exhibitions by Helen Wills against a male opponent, the finishing of these matches is all the tennis scheduled here today. Because of the postponement, . e semi-final had to be carried over to Baturday with the final arranged for Monday. Shields is not the only player al- ready sitting snugly in a semi-final berth, George Lott of Chicago, who has loet but one set in the tourna- ment, marched forward while the sun was shining in the early part of the rain-marred afternoon to win from John Doeg by scores of 6-2, 6-2, 7-5, Hunter, with his lead of two matches to one, is the favorite to come through against Crawford, al- though the young Australian has| about as smooth a way of playing tennis as anyone in this tourna- ment. In the long run, and with the ad- vantage that play of the rainy days play gave him, Hunter's hard driv- ing attack is expected to triumph. Few, however, would be 80 hardy as to rate Mangin as a favorite, great though he appeared in the short time he already has played against Cochet. He is still the out- sider but in his hands is a chance for tennis immortality as the author of an upset which, if predicted a week ugo0, or even two days ago,| would have been termed impossible. LOCALS WIN Rogers Recreation Five Repeats Victory Over Meriden Crew in State Bowling League. | Rogers Recreation bowling five travelled over to Meriden last night and repeated its victory over the Meriden quintet taking two out of three games. J. Tronsky of the local crew had high single with 141 and he also hit h' h three string single with a mark of 385. The New Britain five stands to- day as one of the hest five-man bowling teams in the state.

KEEN RACE IN WEST 1 ¥ of California) | Prophets who would prediet win- ners in the Pacific Coast Conference | this year should keep their fingers crossed. Prospects for a number of strong teams indicate that compe-' tition will be very keen. | There are ten teams in the con- ference and at least of them have a good chance of winning the championship. Stanford, Califor- | nia and Southern Califérnia have | excellent prospects among the south- ern teams, and Idaho, Oregon State and Washington are the strongest in | the northern division at this time. Washington State, Orcgon, Mon- | tana and University of California at | Los Angeles, often referred to as U. C. L. A., do not appear to have prospects on a par with the other teams, although any one of them may make me out a liar before | ‘Thanksgiving Day. Howard Jones at Southern Cali- | fornfa has 12 veteran players re-| turning and approximately 150 other | candidates for his team. His line | should be a big asset, with Captain Hibbs heading a crew of veterans who can fill practically every spot. He has a full crew of experienced | backs in Williams, quarter, Lloyd | Thomas and Saunders, halfbacks, | and Edelson, fullback, who are all | experts in the Jones system of ad- vancing the ball under the cater-| pillar-tractor type of interference. | ‘This system lets the quarterback and | fullback carry the ball every time, | leaving the two halfbacks to run | interference. In Williams, Jones has an ideal man for the job and it would not be surprising if he proves a worthy successor to Morton Kaer and Morley Drur: Stanford begins another season | under “Pop” Warner and all indi- cations point to a successful season. The Cardinals were good last year and they should be just as good or better this fall. Eighteeh lettermen return, including Hoffman, Lewis, Sims, Post, Robesky and Secllman. It has been Warner's practice to give his new men experience in the early season competition and he likely will try some of his sophs and inexperienced reserves of last year in almost all positions in early games. Heisler, who captained the frosh last year, is an exceptionally fine guard prosp Stanford plays an eleven-game schedule this vear. including two games on opening day and the New York game with the Army in December. California started out the 1927 season quite successfully but ran into snags in the last half in her big games. She should have a strong team this fall as 20 lettermen are back and approximately 40 reserves | The schedule is a very attractive | one, especially from the standpoint | of home games, as only one gatne is scheduled away from home. Cap- | tain Phillips, Lom. Eisan, Bancroft | and Bockburn are some of the | veterans on hand. | Bill Spaulding starts his first year | as coach of a conference team with | U. C. L. A. under his command. He has to play all his conference | games away from home, but expects | to have some of them in Los An- gcles next year. His material is not | on a par with other California col- leges. Watch This Orezon Fleven Transferring our attention to the | northern sector, it looks like Oregon State has the makings of a | ®ood team. They have a good ball | carrier in Howard Maple, quarter- | b/ i and he expects a great deal of Ker- shisnik, a 200-pound fullback, this fall. He will miss Jacoby, his quarter, Bagshaw Has His Troubles A combination of graduation in- eligibility and difficulty between players and university administra- tion have been very hard on Wash-| ington. No one seems to be very| clear as to what Enoch Bagshaw will have to work with, Conse- quently, the Huskies will start the on as the “mystery” team. Bag- shaw is a good coach and his team should get better with experience. His schedule is not particularly hard. Captain John McEwan is still building at Oregon, but his team should show some improvement this scason. His best men are Tackles Weems and Patton; ends, Slausen! and Pope; quarterback, Woody, and | halfback, Burnell. Montana is still in the position of a small school forced to compete with institutions much larger than| itself. Major Milburn is an excel- lent coach, but doesn’t have the ma- terial. St. Mary's, at the has the strongest team on the coast. year from Stanford California. Santa Clara, St. Mary's opponent for the Little Big Game of the bay reglon, is more or less unknown but had a strong freshman team and are called the black horse of the smaller colleges. Gonzaga plays northern schools and has a game with 8t. Mary's but were not strong last year. This year they are doped to be stronger. Pomona leads the southern con- ference in strength. Occidental also belongs to southern conference. They are not strong teams, OUTSTANDING STAR §t.

Corbett, heraided as the Young Lochinvar who would come riding from the west to give the eastern 147 pounders a lesson in punching, fought his way to a de- cision over Bammy Baker, former Mitchel field soldier, at Madison Square Garden last night. The decision, though it was un- popular with the garden fans, is on the books, and with Corbett’s two victories over Jack Thompson who recently knocked out Dundee, put him in line for the first crack at Baltimore Joe's title. The 10,000 fans booed the decision and, bearing out their opinion, the Assoclated Press score sheet gave Baker six of the 12 rounds while only three went to the Calitornian, In the seventh round Corbett land- ed one of his terrific body punches and Bergeant 8ammy took the count of nine fighting for breath. Baker lasted through the round and came back strongly ' in the remaining frames. In the 11th he abandoned the cautious defense against Cor- bett's body smashes and landed a smah on the Californlan's wide open chin that had him staggering but failed to put him down. The one blow that sent Baker to the floor was the only visible sign of Corbett's supposedly great left handed wallop. His lefts to the body had the sergeant on the defensive, but his leads to the head were awk- ward and ineffective, In the 12 round semi-final, Al Brown, Panama negro bantam used his great height to outpoint Kid Francis of Italy.Jhe winner of this bout is to meet Bushy Graham of Utica. N. Y., for recognition as the bantamwecight champion. KENSINGTON-RANGERS Third and Deciding Game of Series in City Title Eliminations to be Played Sunday. The third and deciding game of the series in the eliminations for the city champlonship will be played Bunday at the Percival avenue grounds in Kensington between the Kensington and Rangers baseball best two out of three, Bunday's game will mean the elimination of one or the other. The Rangers took the first game by a close score but in the second contest, they were swamped by Ken- sington, Both teams are girded for a hard fight Suhday afternoon and there should be plenty of good base- ball on both sides, The same lincups practically will be used by the teams in the game. | The contest will start promptly at ! 3 o'clock.
