NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, THURSDAY, SEFTEMBER 27, 1928 T - CLARENCE MANNING FORCED TO 20TH HOLE TO BEAT BROTHER DAVE IN SEMI-FINAL MATCH AT SHUTTILE MEADOW—KENSING- | TON AND FALCONS GETTING READY FOR SECOND SERIES GAME SUNDAY—NUTMEGS WORK OUT FOR GAME WITH BRIDGEPORT BASEBALL CLIMAX MUST BE REACHED ON SUNDAY Yankees Enter Detroit for Final Stretch With Feeling of Trepidation—McGraw Prepares for Final Stand Against Cardinals — St. Louis Leads by Only Half a Game — Chicago Cubs Remain In Running by Trimming Phillies—League Leaders Lose a Game. By the Associated Press. The mad drama portrayed by baseball in the season of 192 into its final scene where the great climax must be reached 1, nightfali on Sunday. 1t is decreed that on that date the curtain must drop on the current extravaganza, but it may be that this latest spectacle provided by the master dramatists of the game will yet eclipse anything that has gone on before. The Yankees have dragged them- selves into Detroit with some trepi- dation regarding the final five game of the season, for all of the fact that three victories will put them where they cannot be caught, even if the embattled Mackmen succeed in gk ing four straight from the White Sox. Many things have happened to the Yankees in the last three un- happy (for them) months, and they | won't believe they have this sixth pennant until they can feel it. On the other side of the stage, the master showman of all prepares for the final stirring scenes designed to | give his actors the front and center. John Jostph McGraw has no hun- dred million fans praying for his| success, but he gets there just the same. He has made himself wealthy on the good-natured (or not) hate of baseball followers outside of New | York, and vet he enjoys giving them yet other things for which to hate him more. The Giants now only half a ganie behind the Cardinals as through Dazzy Vance's brilliant victory in Brooklyn yesterday, are face to face’ with the Cubs for four engagements, beginning with a double header this afternoon, and a pennant hangs upon | ewery pitch. I The Cubs remalined theoretically in the running yesterday by taking & parting shot at the Phillies by 8| to 3 while the Cardinals were losing, and they plan to fight the Glants hard enough at least to keep John McGraw's boys out of the flag, even though they realize it no longer is | possible for Chicago's effort to be | rewarded with a championship.

C. football team is rounding into excellent shape for a hard bat- tle with the All-Bridgeport team next Sunday afternoon. This will be the secqnd game of the season for ! | the locals. The Bridgeport team is reported to be stronge? hy a great margin than the Stonewalls eof Holyoke, Y| whom the locals defeated 7 to 0 last Sunday. Composed of some of the best gridiron talent in Bridgeport, the team & coming to this city con- fident that it can hand the locals their first deteat. On the squad is one player who will be well remembered by the fans who nded the Al-New Britain-Bridgeport game in the Park City last year. Then about 300 football rooters from this city at- tended the game therc and they were impressed with the work of Eross, a halfback. Eross, time made appreciable gaing through New Britain's defense and he proved to be the best threat the Bridgeport team had. The Bridgeport line will probably e augmented by the addition of Ed Ticky, one of the best football play- | ers in Bridgeport. Ticky has an out fit of his own in the Park City, but he has signified his intention of | playing here with the Bridgeport |team Sunday. He will be grected profusely by New Britain fans for more reasons than one. The contest Sunday afternoon will start promptly at 2:156 o'clock, and rry Ginsburg, Dave Mahoney and ckerson will be the officials 1™ READY FOR GAME EKensington Looking Forward to Rnother Win-Over Falcons Kensington, by virtue of its win over the Faleon baschall team in the first game of the city title series last Sunday, is being granted an edge over the lFelcons in the second game which will be played in Kensington this coming Sunda; lLicwaver, it 18 an edge because of the victory more than of the rela- tive strength of hoth teams, The intercst of the fans centers, not in the teams as organizations, but in the work of the pitchers. Lust Sunday with “Coke™ Woodman crvirg them up for Kensington and Nichols working for the Falcons, one of the best pitchers' battles in ages was seen Woodman. without much doubt will be nsed by Kersington again this coming Sunday. Whether the Faleons will use Nichols or will turn to their “Incky is a question that will be decid only when the teams are on the field. Whichever pair does the work, assures the fans of another battle like that of Sunday, such a thing is possible, The rest of the teams measure up evenly, man for man. There was little difference, either in the field- ing or the hitting last Sunday. the nonpartisan spectator, only a “break”™ when MeCleary dropped a ball thrown to catch a runner at ccond, gave Kensington its one chance to score. The same two teams will be at ft again, It is doubtful which will win. Managers vy and Moore both express confidence, The former claims a premature victory for his team while the latter says that Kensington will take three strajght. | Neither is paving any attention to the “Indian Sign” story that is be- ing bandied about. The contest Sunday afternoon will be played at the Percival avenue grounds in Kensington on the Cat-hole road past the Ameri- can Paper Goods plant.

The “break of the game” came on the water hole. Dave got a good tee shot but Clarencc’s drive was topped and struck in the water, It bounced out and ran straight up the fairway to the 200 vard mark. If it had stayed in. it would have cost a stroke and distance, a penalty that would have lost the hole and made Clarence three down. As it | was he won the hole with a par | when Dave went over the green on | his approach. As it was, Dave laid his brother a partial stymie but Clarence holed his putt, 4-5.

On the 500 yard scventh hole Clarence was on the edge of the road on his second with an iron. Dave's tee shot found the rough and his brassie second sliced across the fairway into the long grass, He played a beautiful iron to the green to within five feet of the cup.

On the next three holes Clarence suddenly showed signs of cracking and if Dave had taken advantage of his brother's lapse he could have sewed up the match on the 11th, 12th and 13th holes.

Heading the top bracket, Misg Maureen Orcutt, Englewood, N. J., links queen, was matched against Mrs. Dorothy Campbell Hurd of Philadelphia, a three times Amer- ican champion as well as a former holder of the British and Canadian titles.
