Washington Looks Like Sure Winner —Indians Battle Way to Top Berth

> TITLE SERIES OPENING SCHEDULED FOR OCT. 4 Owners of Five Major League Contending Clubs Meet and Select Starting Date —Giants Crippled. By HENRY L. FARRELL Ri‘ United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Sept. 22, —Unless something startling happens this week, the world’s series will open in Washington Saturday, Oct. 4. Owners of the five contending major league clubs met here Sunday and decided upon the date. The Washington Senators apparently are deciding the place.

The club owners decided to open the series in the American League city whose team wins the pennant on Oct. 4 and play the first, second and sixth games there, with the third, fourth and fifth games in the National League city. The games will be. played on consecutive days, the players traveling at night. All games will start at 2 o'clock eastern standard time. If a seventh game is necessary, the place will be decided by tossing a coin. The following prices were decided on: New York. $6. $5, $3 and $1: Brooklyn. $6, So, S3. $2, $1; Pittsburgh, $6, So, S3 and sl. Senators Appear ‘‘ln" While they have not attained the mathematical certainty, the Washington Senators practically have cinched the American League pennant and have won the most popular victory in years. While the Yankees were being messed around Sunday by the Detroit .Tigers, the Senators downed the St. Louis Browns and increased their lead over the Yanks to two full games. * Both teams have seven games to play. If the Senators win only four of their remaining games, the Yanks will have to win their remaining games to beat out the spirited Senators. The Yanks have a harder schedule to face. They must engage the Cleveland Indians in three games and the Philadelphia Athletics in the final four, while the Senators are having three with the White Sox and four with the Boston Red Sox. Yankees’ Task The Indians and the Athletics will be hard for the Yankees, but the Senators, unless they go completely to pieces, ought to be able to play at least .500 ball or better. Babe Ruth hasn't hit the size of his hat since the team went on the road, and he was particularly helpless in the Detroit series. The old saying, “As Ruth goes, so go the Yanks." was again demonstrated. The Giants are in a particularly critical position. They are only a half srame ahead of the Brooklyn Robins.and a game and a half ahead of the charging Pirates. Giants < rippled Frank Frisch and Heinic Groh. two mainstays of the Giants' defense. are out of the game. Manager MoOraw says he will not he able to use them for the r<st of the season, and it is quite certain that they will be out for three or four days. Groh threw his bad knee out. Frisch sprained a finger on his throwing hand that was broken during his football days at Ford ham. and “Irish” Meusel is in bed with a heavy cold. The Giants will have to use George Kelly on second base. Freddie Lindstrom. a rookie, on third, and Jimmy O'Connell in center field. The champions were to start a three-game series with the Pittsburgh Pirate.® today, but it seemed this morning that rain would cause a postponement and bring about a double-header or the use of one of the off-days at the end of the week.

FRANKLIN’S PROBLEM IS TO DEVELOP RESERVES Coach Ed Duggan Has Fine First String Material With Number of Veterans Back This Season, By DICK MILLER Franklin College had a good team last year, hut reserve power was lacking. This year the same condition seems true. On the other hand Coach Ed Duggan has six candidates trying for the line position left vacant by the loss of Bobby Records. The Baptists have a fine first string eleven which appears very powerful.

The first thing noticed at praetict was that Franklin must develop a kicker before the team takes on Butler on Oct. 4, or Franklin-• hopes of breaking the Butler defeat jinx probably will be sadly blasted. Duggan has lost two regulars of his 1923 first team. Records, a guard, and Woods, a full hack. He also lost Rich, a haif back, and Owens, another back field man. He has Franklin, 205; Humpaher, 180; Tudor, 205; German, 190; Sheppard, 184, and Crater, 170; all working for Record's place. The loss of Woods is not causing Duggan any worry. Chapin, 112. former all-State high school signal barker, probably will be at quarter. All last year Chapin walked through the varsity. Red Is Back Duggan plans to use Red Rohrabaugh, last year’s quarter back, in

HOOSIERS GRAB LEAD IN HOT PENN A NT.STR UGGLE Fitzsimmons Is Hero in Sunday Games at Milwaukee—* Bushmen Win and Tie With Brewers. By Times Special MILWAUKEE, Spt. 22.—Ownie Bush's Indians were out in front by three points this morning in the wild scramble for the American Association pennant. The Tribesmen won the first game of Sunday’s double-header here, 13 to 11, and tied the second fracas, 4 and 4. The wind-up battle was ended by darkness after seven innings. Two more contests were scheduled here this afternoon, after which the Bushmen will go to St. Paul

Fred Fitzsimmons was the hero Sunday. He staged an ‘‘iron man” stunt and the Mishawaka youth got away with it. In the first game Fitz relieved Niles in the fourth in ning and checked the Brewer swatters and then he took the mound in the second combat. Two Brewers were on base and no one was out when Fitz relieved Niles, but Fred pitched like a wild man and struck out two men and got the third on a fly to Christenbury. The twin bill Sunday waa a struggle from the start and the fans were kept in an uproar. The Brewers tried everything in an effort to beat the Hoosiers, but the athletes from Indianapolis fought long and hard and their efforts got results. The Indians were enabled to annex the league lead when Toledo tied | St. Paul Sunday in a game halted by rain after seven innings. The third-place Louisville Colonels split a double-header with the K. C. Blues. Both Indians and Saints had double-headers this afternoon. It was believed Manager Bush would use Morton and G. Smith on the mound today. Jess Petty also was ready.
