iATHLETICS AND I SFNATORSMEET e Important Series Between American League Leaders Opens Today i) By Henry L. Farrell, H P Staff Correspondent 1 r Washington, Sept. 1 —Connie Mack's 8 baby Athletics and Bucky Harris' * battle worn veterans of the Washing t ton Senators had the capital all workg cd up here again today as they pre par’d for the first of the little world ’ series games'’ that will decide the American league pennant. I' There were no throngs milling I around the streets and fighting for , ticket i as there wen- just a year ago i when the city wus in a frenzy over] " Its first championship team, but what was lost in action was made up in conversation. While only two games are to bo ' playi-d in this current series, today and tomorrow, the managers of the I two teams and the experts feel that i the Senators could get. a. strangle hold on the pennunt by winning th, , two games. The Senators are now 3% games ahead of the Athletics anil two vic-, lories would not only increase their, lead to games but it would demoralize the young Philadlephia team that already has shown signs of cracking under the strain. Walter Johnson and Stanley Coveleskie. the two veterans of the pitching staff, are ready to work and Johnson, hero of last year’s pennant fight, probably will get the call today. 1 Bryan Harris probably will be called upon to pilch the opener for the Athletics but Connie Mack said he had not made up his mind definitely, j Weather conditions were almost f ideal.
