FLAG RACE | IS HOTTEST ONE | IN MANY YEARS BY HAROLD ‘JOHNSON “NEW YORK, Sept. 20—The 1916 pennant races in the two major leagues, with six teams battling desperately for the lead and with small chance that the winners will be de cided until the very last day, is the greatest in the 40-year history of organized baseball! Never before since the first game of organized baseball was played in 1876 have so many teams entered the stretch} so closely bunched. Three teams in the National league and| three in the American are in the thick of the fighting | The race of 1908 alone parallels the 1916 battle. At the) beginning of the last month of that season three teams in the American league and four in the Natiogal still had fight- ing chances, but the race simmered down to a few clubs be- fore the same stage of the fight was reached which now shows six teams in the sizzling flag dash ‘This year’s mad scramble for top honors revolves about six men— the six stars of the teams contending—Grover Alexander of the Phils; | Jake Daubert of Brooklyn; Dick Rudolph of the Boston Braves; Red | Faber of the Chicago White Sox; Ty Cobb of the Detroit Tigers, and “Dutch” Leonard of the Boston Red Sox | Should injury beset any these topliners, the clubs losing their gérvices might as well bid the pennant | ad Tae aorr*ty Ge se ST ere witd piven costs TEAM PENNANT ad The hot dash now recalls the hot dashes of other years.

Cobb, after trailing Tris Speaker in Datting all season, has started one of his fa- mous last-stretch drives, determined to lead the league in batting ae | the t tenth consecutive season. His spur has put new pep into the Tigers. The team has i} taken to hitting and the pitchers have improved. Alexander won the pennant fort#?
