CHICAGO CUBS COP FIFTEENTH STRAIGHT GAME Cubs Down Giants 15-3 To Set Season Record For Triumphs New York. Sept. 19. — (U.R) — A 1935 major league record. 15 consecutive victories, was inscribed in baseballs record books today and chances are that it still will be there at the end of the season - unless the Chicago Cubs extend it further. Chafley Grimm's "kid team" shattered the 14-straight mark set in July by the St. Louis Cardinals when they whipped the New York Giants yesterday for the third time In as many starts. The Cubs now boast the longest streak in their league since 1924 when Brooklyn won 15. The defeat marked the virtual passing of the Giants from the National league picture —the second successive time they have been knocked out of the pennant race in September. The modern record of 26 straight victories, established by the Giants in 1916. is beyond the Cubs' grasp because they have only eight games to play. Barring a complete breakdown in the next week and a half, the Cubs are the likeliest team to oppose Detroit in the world series Although only 214 games ahead of St. Louis, the Cubs have an easier path toward the pennant because they have won more and have fewer left to play than the world champions. e The Cubs have only eight games left —five of them with St. Louis., If they win only four more, thel Cards will have to take 8 of their i remaining 11 to tie and 9 to win.! The Giants. 6)4 games behind Chi j eago, need 14 of 15 to lie. and 15 to win. Charley Root. 35-year-old right hander who won only four 1934 games pitched the Cubs to their record as the Giants were defeated, 15-3. The Cards, trailing 3-2 going into the seventh, defeated Brooklyn 6-3. Paul Dean relieved Wild Bill Hallahan at the start ofj the eighth, bringing the Dean ■ Brothers' total appearances to 15 in the last 18 games. Pittsburgh : defeated Boston. 5-2, and Cincinnati beat Philadelphia. 6-5. The Detroit Tigers had their American league cut to eight games by losing. 4-3, to Boston. The runner-up New York Yankees gained half a game by splitting with St. Louis. The Browns won [ rhe first. 7-4, and lost the second. 0-3. Cleveland defeated Philadelphia, 10-5 and 10-0.

Officials said the reservation referred to the seventh proposal in the leagues list, which, if it means paramount Italian interest, “probably will mean the exclusion of other nations; mean that our development will be restricted by Italy's desires and the practical suicide of Ethiopia." The emperor was not immediately informed of the proposals, which arrived late today from Geneva and were promptly decoded. Meanwhile officials had no illusions and preparations against war went on at full speed. It was disclosed that Ethiopia expects Italy to attack on five fronts simultaneously.
