SENATORS HAVE VANKSREEIING Washington Gains Four Garnet on New York in Three Days and Seems lo Have Pennant Won. By JOHN B. FOSTER IW4. By Tki Alnxi) Nfcw York, Sept. IS. ? iPltta bnrgh must get bettor than an even break in its present crucial tWln-serles ormt-patnps in Urent w Nw York to havfc a look-in far the championship. Even two il?? fei<s practically will put the Pi ratic oat of Jt^ The victory of Pittsburgh in the first game against Brooklyn was discounted in advance because the sensational Yde was the pitcher It had been figured that both Brooklyn and INew York would lo? to Yde. ? fW.. -It Brooklyn had been able to itart Vance in the game against J4e there might have been a dif^_ ferent tale to tell as th?? Robins kit the league's leading pitcher harder than he Is usuaiy hit and those two runs the Urooklyas ?cored might have been euougli wfth Vance holding back the Pitts burgh sluggers. But Vance had to be tuahed in to save the first game of the St. Louis doublehead or on Thursday and the four In nings he worked incapacitated him from pitching on Friday. Unless Brooklyn drops two more games behind New York In the Pittsburgh aeries it la likely to re main a constant threat to the Giants right down to the finish as thsy are due to pick up some lost C to and against the Chicago Cui>s Whtle the Giants are battling the Pittsburgh!* early nest week. Washington's victories over St. Louts on Priday and Sunday while Nsw York was losing to Detroit on tha same days was a great boost for the Senators who now itave the Yankees reeling. For New York to drop four gamea be kind Washington at thl? thrilling moment when the air is pulsating ?with throbs from the national capital is bsd medicine for them. The failure of the St. Louis Browns to stop the Yankees was ft disappointment not only to the followers of the Senators but also to the fans of St. Louis. Sisler's fielding was held responsible for the loss of one of the games. Men who have been following the Biuwna all season- say that Staler Is not as sure on his fielding ground hits as he was and the na tural presumption Is that he is suffering somewhat from the eye ailment thst threatened to end htor baaeball career a year ago. ^;.T Slsler is not as good in field fug snd he surely is not hitting anywhere near his high water mark of 400, the year's lay-off would have something to do with hla diminished ability. ?Psrhaps some of the reason why tb? Browns are not as high in the race as they were expected to be Is dne to the slowing up of Sis Isr. Attention mu*t be directed to ths fact because when the Browns rebuild for another year there is much to be done to out them up where they can muster a fight J against the teams in the first di vision. The Brown's infield does not tat as well ss some other infields, and the outfield Is beginning to |ow that sting with the ssh which I was one of tne most substantial^ elements of strength that the play ers possessed. Slsler may Improvo as the winter passes again but any man can see what a gap is left in a team when a .400 batter cannot get there, ilt Is alsof possible that I ? fine .400 batter was spoiled try ing to mske a manager. Tt|e load ahouldered by Slsler was a bin one for one man to tackle. He had to come back and he had to try managing a team at the same time. WOMN TWVMH CHAMPION W1KIJ>H A eiJCVKIt PKX B?m?Uy. CAl..

To- ? -e-n e o -u ran p variety of play in trying for the extra point. For instance a team may be tempted to try a running play to gain throe yaril* whereas It would rely on the kick when five yards were to be gained. Question ? Is not the drop kicker helped by the lining up of the scoring team two yeara nearer the goal line of the team scored against ? more room in which to work and stands in less danger of having his kick blocked.
