Second Game. New York, July 20-r-ith the close of the professional Daseball season less than two months away the pen nant races in both major and minor leagues are tightening up in a remark able manner when the scores of asso ciates are considered as a whole. With a few exceptions here and there the strugglers for first places are far closer than has been the rule, for sev eral years. If the claim that this, is a poor financial season in baseball is correct it is certain that the change cannot be laid to one-sided-flag races. In the major leagues at least six clubs have pennant chances. Phila delphia, Detroit and Washington are all in the American League race and the first four clubs in the National or ganisation all figure as possible win ners. The same situation exists in the Federal and International leagues. The race in tlje Class A. organiza tions is also close. The Southern As sociation pennant struggle is one of the most interesting in years, less than one hundred points separating the first six clubs. In the Western League, Denver, St. Joseph, Lincoln and Sioux City are all bunched and as the season does8 not ciose until Sep tember 27th any one of these clubs may prove the Flag winner. Among the Class B, leagues the average is not so close. New London has a good lead in the Eastern Association; Day ton in the Central League; Wilkes Barre in the New York State League, and Davenport in the Three I League. In the Texas League Beaumont.H ous ton and Waco are all in the race while Worcester, Portland, Lawrence and Lynn have a pennant chance in the New England league. The Class C. races are also proving of much interest to the baseball fan3 of the respective league territories, Charleston leads the South-Atlantlo race with Albany having a fair chance if the leaders slow up for any reason. The Virginia contest is far closer for Norfolk, Newport News and Richmond are closely grouped. Further north in the Wisconsin-Illinois League five clubs are in the flag race, three being hardly a hundred points between the first and fifth teams. Bay City ap pears to have a safe lead in the South Michigan league, while Winnipeg, Grand Forks and YJtginia all have a chance to win out before the season closes on Labor Day. The same can be said of Fall River, New Bedford and Pawtucket in the Colonial League while London and Ottawa are leaders in the Canadian League. The showing made by the American athletes in the English track and field championships again dem strates the fact that in this particular department of sport the United States performers can hold their own against the world. In an entry list of close to 240 there were seven American competitors, three of whom partici pated in two events giving this coun try a total entry of ten. This little band competed in nine of the nine teen events composing the program winning two first, two second, and tvo- third pi . is five ot the sev;.i entrants being placed in the finals against a field which included ath letes from all parts of the British Isles, South Africa, Sweden, Austra lasia and Canada. These entries were either personal or club entries and were in no way official United States or Amateur Athletic Union entries. The expenses of the athletes were paid by them selves or by. their respective clubs and the conditions under which the. athletes trained and travelled abroad were far different from those govern ing a representative American team competing in either Olympic or In ternational track and field games. "Hobey" Baker, the former Princeton university football and hookery cap tain, who went abroad with several of the athletes who competed at the Eng lish games, in writing of the trip states: "It was amusing to talk with train er Jack Kelly in charge of Homer Baker of the New York Athletic Club and Harry Smith of the Bronxville Church House, the well known dis tance men, while on their way to com pete in the English championships. The steamer on which we made the voyage was poorly adapted to training purposes. The passengers little realiz ed the importance of practice and hampered the runners in their prac tice by crowding the decks so that Kelly was forced to get his charges up (Cintineud on Page Seven.)
