J.oiils teams, which set sail for third place in both circuits. The steady pull of the t'ardlna!s In the National under the crippled home run leader, (topers Monisby. carried the Hub to the door of the unsteady Hohlns, who tripped five times In six starts. IfrmvitH Make Progress, Tho 1 1 row ns made even more marked progress In the American, clipping New York and Washing ton for six triumphs to climb with in a game, and a half of fourth place, Detroit, mid to within two games of third place, Chicago. Only a. continuation of the Tigers' smart cllj ut the expense of Itostoti and Philadelphia kepi the Sisler out of (he first division. The lagging Athletics suffered at tho hnnds of steady pitching by the Indians and retired from the shad ow of the Cleveland wtgwitms only to face, a battery of Detroit hurling arms w hich Vhud furnl.shed sensa tional performances In abundance against the Red Sox. l-'lrst place Washington eonesquently found 11 necessary to break even during the week to become more I irmly forti fied ut the pinnacle.

The Cubs made a bid for better days by turning over to tho veteran shortstop Kabblt .Mar- nnvllel, the reins formerly held by Kcd Kllllfer.

Credit For Winning Of Pennant Due Gossett Manager of Pirate Nine Given Much Praise for Indefatigable Efforts During Season. (lly ScM)p) For tho first time in years and years I. a Grande has a champion- Miup uaHeoan learn, a icain innti was so full of fight nnd ahllitv that ' It. copped ihe gonfalon two weeks before the last game of the season. And credit for Die Pirates' ron slHtent winning must go to Tom (les.sett,, playing mannger of the local d In mon il era. Tom, starting off the season as captain and first basenmn, kept the team together while other HI tie Mountain league nines were going through uph 'av als. Later he played, third base and then, when Hurrls French re-i signed s manager, took over the' reins. When Harth was Injured, Tom stepped in and caught In his place for one game until another atelier could lie procured and yes terday, faced with what was ex pected to tie the hardest gamn of tho season, had his playem tuned up to such n pitch that a 12 to 0 victory was registered. Tom Is one of the best hall play- crs and best executive bends that I.a Orunde lias ever had at Its base ball helm. And his popularity has grown by leupM anil bounds, testify ing as to his other qualities both on and off the baseball field. A word of pral Im certainly tine Itnck llelu for bis game yesterday. Itiick, who never lias hit very strongly, llt'lcil the ball over deep right field fence yesterday with two men on. Hidc that ho wni so hit stingy that only two Ha tier men reached first on singles, One of the hoys thc.t has prog ressed steadily under Oossett'a management Is Te.x Knight. At the first of the season he was only fulr but as week after week . passed, under Oossett'a glooming Tex rounded full iiitn h h. int. hi ft ( nir snappy fielding first sarker that wouiii oe u credit io any semi-pro team The entire personnel of the Pirate team is deserving of prals", not only for playing ability but for gentlemanly conduct, on and off the field. "A mighty nice, clean bunch of ballplayer," hi been Grande more Oinn One of the most regrettable things that happened during "ie season was Hie Injuring of Al Itarth, stm league catcher, ami one of the most popular Pirates. It is gratifying that lie Is rertvering nicely. Itesponses to the bciielil fund for him have been more Hutu generous.
