RABID GOTHAM FANS PREDICT TWO PENNANTS Optimistic N. Y. ‘Bugs’ Look Forward to ‘Corner* on the World's Series. GIANTS CAUSE UPSET BY JACK VEIOCK. Sport-* Editor, I ntcr national News. NEW YORK, Aug. 29 Gotham baseball fans were optimistic today as the Yankees and Giants prepared to swing Into the home stretch In the pennant races. , Baseball enthusiasm In the Metropolis, in fact, is higher than at any time since the season opened, for which both the Y’anks and McGraw men close on the heels of the paee-maklng Cleveland Indians snd Pittsburgh Pirates, New York fans feel sure of one pennant and the more rabid fans are predicting a corner on the world's series. The Yanks are in the best strategical position of the two pennant contenders. One and a half games behind the Cleveland Indians. Miller Huggins' team Is favored by the remainder of the season's schedule. Speaker and his champions have another hard Eastern roa<\ trip ahead of them. They have played most of their home games and from now on they will not find the picking easy. Whet, the Yanks reach Manhattan tomorrow night they will have but nine more games to play on the road, five In Philadelphia, three In Boston, and one in Washington. Twenty-four more games are on the Yankees' schedule at the Polo Grounds, where they have done their best percentage-building all season and with the last Western road trip successfully completed, it appears that the burden of worry is with Speaker from now on. The surprising feßt of the Giants in taking five straight from Pittsburgh and reducing an Imposing seven and one-half game lead to a short gap between first and second places has put them very much into the National League race once again. The Giants still hare the handicap of a long Western road trip ahead of them and the fact that they have lost four more games than the Pirates is a feature not to be overlooked. But they are dangerous once more and it is always well to remember the most often proved axiom of Harry Pulliam, "take nothing for granted in baseball.”

INDIANS MOVE TO SAINT CITY Tribe Grabs Final Miller Gamt Behind Good Pitchirg of Jess Petty. MINNEAPOLIS. Aug 29—Jack Hendricks Indians moved out of h*-re this morning, going by trolley to the home of Mike Kelley's Saints, where a series was to he opened with the Apostles this afternoon. It will be the last series for the Tribe iti the West this season, for tiie team is due to beat it back to Indianapolis after meeting the Saints in a round of games. When the Ilooslers return home next Saturday it will be to tangle with the Louisville Saturday, Sunday and Labor day. Jess Petty pitched a remarkable game here yesterday and downed the Millers 2 to 1. It was a remarkable victory fox the reason that the Millers got eleven hits and only one run, against the Tribe's six hits for" two runs. Big Bi'l James hurled for the locals and it was quite a surprise to Bill to lose a game like that. Schreiber drove Baird home and Itehg drove Schreiber home for the runs that gave Indianapolis the contest. The scoring occurred in the eighth frame. The Millers had counted one marker in the second inning and they were feeling secure until the Indians got busy In the eighth. The Indians had only one fuss with Empire Jim Murray, who evidently means so ''ride”, the Hoosiers every chance he gets. He banished Harry Weaver from the coaching lines yesterday and later from the park along with tacktug on a $25 fine. In the double header Saturday the Indians grabbed the first contest, 7 to 5, and the Millers the second. 9to 4 The Hoosiers rallied in the ninth to win the first struggle, five runs being scored in the final frame. Cavet, Weaver and Petty pitched. Caret started, but was banished by Empire Murray after a fuss in the early innings In the second frame Saturday Cs v et, Stryker and Bartlett all took a v.'oirl on the mound, but the Milters were hitting too hard to be stopped.

i Big League Stuff i Jess Barnes held the Cubs to fire hits Sunday and the Giants added another victory to their string. George Gibson sent Young Johnny Morrison against the Dodgers and succeeded in breaking Pittsburgh's losing streak. Three lilts were all Uncle Robbie's boys could garner off the yourtoful Pirate hurler. Forty five thousand fans saw the two National League games in New Y'ork Sunday. John Collins’ timely single in the eleventh inning gave the Red Sox a game at Chicago. Young King Cole of the Tigers shoveled the Yankees Into the discard Sunday and they lost ground to Cleveland. Ruth got three two-bag-gers. Joe Wood batted in two of the Cleveland runs with a double and scored th* third an‘d winning tally with a homer against Washington. The Browns jumped all over Hasty, the Athletics’ young hurler and hammered out a one-sided victory. An American League fielding record of seventeen chances accepted hr a aecond baseman was set by Dykes, of the Philadelphia Athletics, against St. Louis. The former mark of sixteen was credited to D. B. Pratt when with the New York Americans last year. Dykes had nine putouts, one less than the American League record. SATURDAY’S RESULTS. AMERICAN ASSOCIATION. Indianapolis, 7-4; Minneapolis, 3-9.

In most cases yesterday the scores were close and the honors were contested right up to the time of the final out. _ The concrete uniforms for upset delivery go to the Highlands. The High’ands performed the double impossible when they came out ahead of the crack North Side Ail-Star combination. 4 to In what proved one of the big features of the afternoon. The Highlands took on the All-Stars after the Boys’ Club nine failed to show for their protest play-off. Stader of the Highlands and Hackleman of the All-Stars went through a great pitcher's battle In fine style, allowing six and five hits, respectively. The Highlands put over tbelr win in the sixth, when they worked three consecutive bingies Into two runs Next Sunday the Mapletons and Highlands meet and the fans hardly know what to expect. The Mapletons came through the second round with a 30 to 1 win over the Southern Gray Juniors. The Ferndales played their first game against the Weber Y. M.

Cantwell clubbed the old apple hard for the winning combination. It will be the Militaries and V) Ulards next Sunday In the third round, because Herb Campbell, Huzzy Harris Cos. handed the Riverside A. A a 0 to 1 la< ing. The Riversides led 1 to 0 when the Militaries started bitting lu the sixth, and after that everything was in favor of the West Enders Srhmutte, pitching for the Riversides, allowed but two hits up to the sixth inning. Schmutte wus taken out when the Military rally started, and M<Murtry was pounded all over the ltiversld neighborhood. North Side fans were given something of a severe Jolt when the South Side Turner baseballers thumped the Central A. Cs. 0 to 4. in a btg rivalry clash. The Turners looked the part of 192*.' champions when they took the Centrals down' the line, and the funs around Fountain Square are starting to lay away their nickels and dimes for the day of the championship tilt. The Riley All-Stars got fifteen more runs yeHterday, wbilt tbfl Indianapolis Midways were getting three. HELLS TO PLAY

YIN RICHARDS MISSED NEW YORK, Aug. 29. —Interest in tennis shifted to Forest Hills today. The picturesque Long Island village where the \\ est Side Tennis Club will entertain the Japanese and Americans in the challenge round of the Davis cun -vlll be the scene of action on the par- of the members of the rival teams throughout the week. The first matches in the challenge round are not scheduled until Friday, but Kumagae and Shlmidzu and the American defenders—Tilden, Johnston, Willi.-Rns and Washburn—will warm up on the exhibition courts in daily preparation for the first two singles matches. I The brilliant playing of Vincent Riehj ards in the national doubles at Boston ; led to expressions of regret in tennis circles that he was not named a member of the Davis cup team. This is too late a date to make a change, however, and it was considered fairly certain today that Tilden and Johnston will be sent into the four singles matches, with Williams and Washburn reserved for the doubles. RICHARDS IN COURT FEATURES BOSTON, Aug. 29.—National champions at lawn tennis in five classes were decided on the courts of the Longwood Cricket Club Saturday. Outstanding lu the Importance and in the actual play was the match In which William T.

Norris Williams and W. M. Washburn. America's defenders in doubles in the Davis cup match with Japan. The straight set scores, 13-11, 12-10, 6 1, constituted the greatest number of gaums In three sets In the history of the event. ' Tilden, paired with Richards, was able to do more than Tilden. paired with the national w oman s champion, Mrs Molla HJurstedt Mallory. Both were off their game In the national mixed doubles championship final, in which they were defeated by the western pair. Miss Mary K. Browne and W. M. Johnston. After the two champions had won the first set. 6-3. Miss Browne's placements pulled out the next two sets for her team, 6 4, 6 3. Young Vincent Richards succeeded where Tilden failed lu the quest for doubles honors, adding the national Junior singles championship to hi* list for the third year after a hard tussle with Arnold W. Jones of Providence. It was a straight s**t victory, 6 3, 7-5, 9-7, but it was difficult for Richards to complete because of his weariness. The national Junior double* title was won by Jones and W. W. Ingraham, whose fathers had won the veterans' championship previously. The "father and son" honors went for a third year to the Andersotis of New York, Fred G. and his son. Fred C.
