HAS 8 GAMES LEFT Detroit to Play 4 and White Sox 5. Superbas and ; Quakers Each Have 1 1 Contests on 1916 Season Schedule. NEW YORK, Sept. 24. Unless the ther teams in the National and Amer ican Leagues show unexpected strength, Brooklyn and Boston will compete in the 1916 world's series, although pen nants are by no means clinched. Of the two league leaders, the Boston Americans made the best showing dur ing the week. Boston ousted Detroit from first place and tonight is 23 points ahead of Jennings' men. Although Chi cago moved into second place, it was 9 oints behind Boston after today's frame. Boston won every one .of the f even games it played last week, losing today. Chicago lost to the champions last Sunday and Monday, and Detroit dropped three games to Carrigan's men on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Red Sox Have Eight to Play. Boston has eight more games to play, as follows: At Cleveland, September 25; at Boston against New York, September 27, 28. 29 and 30. and against Philadelphia at Boston. October 2, 3 and 4. Detroit has four games remaining, against Wash ington at Detroit, September 25, and St. Louis, September 29 and 30 and October 1. Chicago meets New York at Chicago, September 25, and Cleveland at Cleve land on September 28, 29 and 30, and October 1. Boston with eight remain ing games has almost as many as De troit, with four, and Chicago, with live combined. The inter-sectional results in the American League were: East, 15; West, 12. Brooklyn at the end of the week was nine points in front of the Philadelphia Nationals, which were 22 points ahead of Boston. Giants Clone to Record. By winning two games from St. Louis Saturday, the New York team came within one game of the major league record for games won of 20 straight, by Providence in 1884. Beginning tomorrow, Brooklyn and Philadelphia each have 11 games to play, and Boston has 15. Brooklyn has one doubleheader, Philadelphia two and Boston six. Philadelphia meets both Brooklyn and Boston, but Boston and Brooklyn do not meet again. Brooklyn meets Chicago September 25 (two games), 26 and 27; Philadelphia at Brooklyn, September 28, 29 and 30, and New York at home on October 2. 3, 4 and 5. In addition to its series against Brooklyn, Philadelphia meets Cincin nati at home on September 25 and 26, and Boston at Philadelphia, on October 2 (two games), 3 (two games). 4 and 5. Boston, besides meeting Philadel phia, plays Pittsburg at home in dou bleheaders on September 25 and 26, and plays New York on September 28 (two games). 29 and 30 (two games). Dodgers Finish at Home. The schedule permits Brooklyn to play all itf remaining games at home. Boston may have some advantage in the greater number of games, but as there are six doubleheaders and only three single games, the going may prove rough for the Boston Braves, who, unless they brace suddenly, are in danger of losing third place to New York; which is closer to Boston than Boston is to Brooklyn. The inter-sectional results in the Na tional League were: East, 23; West, 7. Thomas, a newcomer to Washington, led the pitchers for the week with a two-hit game over St. Louis. Demaree, Philadelphia Nationals, beat Pittsburg in two games of a doubleheader on Wednesday, and Alxander repeated the feat against Cincinnati Saturday. Higg. Wins Seven and Loses 12 With Des Moines.

HARD BOUTS ARE BILLED BOXERS TO MIX TOMORROW NIGHT ALL DESIRE DECISION'S. Knowlton nnd MeMInn Are Expected to Furnish Feature Contest at Golden West Athletic League. Tomorrow night when the Golden West Athletic League stages its show. Manager George Moore hopes to have no draws. All of the boys who will appear have expressed their desire to have hairline decisions rendered. "Toughy" Wing, the local boxing hope, hopes to deliver the goods in one of the main events and take Danny Edwards down the line for six rounds. Wing says he will be on the aggressive most of the time, and expects to land his left hand with a little more aban don than his opponent. "Toughy" says he don't expect to land his Jabs very hard, but with pep and vim. Edwards assures the fans that he will wade right into the fray. If holding back and countering will win for this boy, he will lose, for he simply cannot wait. Walter Knowlton and Sailor McMinn, lightweights, are expected to furnish the actual feature contest of the even ing. The former, the veteran fireman, says he will hold McMinn at the end of his left arm and make a monkey of him. Walter says that every time Mc Minn starts that right-hand uppercut he will jab him in the nose with his left hand. Following is the complete card which will be presented at the club across the river: 115 pounds, "Toughy" Wing versus Danny Edwards; 158 pounds, "Young Jack" Johnson versus Valley Trambitas; 135 pounds. Walter Knowl ton versus Sailor McMinn; 135 pounds. Young Dempsey versus Carl Martin; 130 pounds, Pete Mitchie versus Adolph Maki. Biff and Bang, two colored mid- "Toughy" Wins, Alblna Boy, Who nA f"' I . . 1-1 . 1 f 1 r row N'Isrht. dlewelghts, will provide the curtain raiser. Friends of little Alex Tramoiras. who were disappointed in his not stopping Eddie Gorman at Grants Pass last Wednesday night, will be interested in the description of the contest which appeared in the Daily Rogue River Courier: "The most interesting bout of the show, and the one which fans are discussing, was the second on the card, and was between two bantamweights, Eddie Gorman, of Oakland, and young Alex Trambitas, of Portland. It was action from start to finish, and two gamer boys would be bard to find. Out side of bloody noses, no damage was done. The decision was given to Tram bitas. as he clearly shaded the Oakland boy in every round. "Also it was clearly to be seen that the handlers of the Portland boy were holding him in check from the beginning." yeSL .

We only know- life at Its best Who take the Game as it may go; Who face Fate and the final test With heads up to the closing blow. Who'd rather charge on than retreat. And yet who hold the Game too hitfli To have It wrecked by a defeat Or have it shadowed by a tih. Our effort Is to give our all, la valiant hope that this will win But If, by chance, we come to fall. We hold no failure as a sin; But rather, with a stouter heart. That sees no reason to despond. We gather for another start Against the day that waits beyond. To know the prize is not oar creed. For we have found rewards will wait Somewhere some time above our need As long as we can face our Fata With unuowed heaa without a tear Regardless of the goal at stake. With souls that have foricotten fear And hearts that Heaven couldn't break. HAT, after all. Is the main es sence of courage?" asks . a reader. The bulk of courage, upon the average, is being sufficiently prepared, sufficiently efficient, to know that you are pretty well fixed for the grapple on ahead. World Series Slugging. The possibility, or probability, de pending upon whether you live in De troit. Boston or Chicago, of seeing Ty Cobb in another world's series bringi up a number of Important details. There would, first of all. be the ad vance guessing as to Just how hard TJ would assault the ball in such a cir cumstance, for the great hitters of the game are not always the star perform ers in the big October show. John Franklin Baker, as a matter of recorJ, was one of the excessively few top-notchens who continued his pace, with something tacked on, when the closing smear arrived. Ty in' the old days was not able to go very far against Cub pitchers when Brown and Overall were at their best. He did better in the Pittsburg engage ment, his last stand, seven years ago. But world serie glory is seldom to the Batting Eye. In 1914 Hank Gowdy drove Baker-and Collins off the reser vation with a mark above .400. In 1915 popular attention was fixed upon the mighty artillery duel between Tris Speaker and Cactus. Cravath. But when the outlying precincts hal been heard from, one Duffy Lewis was leading both anywhere from 150 to 200 points. But one tidy or Tydy point about Cobb is that he makes a great story if he hits and a greater one if he doesn t hit. Either way he is sufficient fea ture to keep the animals well stirred up. The Turnlna; Tlser. Sir: Speaking of the worm turning, so will the Tiger if you twist his tail sufficiently. Which reminds me of what I started out to say: Watch Princeton even up a good part of the count this Fall against Yale and Har vard. Watchful waiting will prove I am right. Nassau IL Why Aot. This dope Just at present looks to be reasonable enough. Speedy Rush proved last Fall that he was a hign grade instructor and leader. That one year's experience should mean more than a trifle, and with the material he has in sight Princeton has the best chance at a double victory she has known for a span of years. Haughton has the chance for a good backfield with his freshman stars. Bond. Flower and Casey. What the line will be is another affair. Yale has a fine system starting under Jones and Sweeney, and a hustling leader in Cu pid Black, but Yale's material Is also another affair. But football being' football, with memories of that Yale-Princeton con test left over from last Fall, there is no crying need for any rush of proph ecy just yet. After having read where the old Tiger outfield combination of Cobb, Crawford and Veach was to be broken up. we turned in time to observe where they ran up 11 hits in one game. Yes, they're breaking up swiftly breaking up the game. In the way of the standing broad hunch, we have a kinkevl Idea that if Alexander and Cravath are permitted to participate in another world series their 1915 status will be somewhat changed. Alex will be another pitcher, al though he did fairly well a year ago. and Cravath will provide a good bit more annoyance in the small Philly field. But. then, there are a Mr. Robinson and a Mr. Stallings who aver the pair referred to will never get a chance to produce the comeback briefly sug gested. m m There Is one club In the American League circuit that can see no great hilarity in the fact that seven clubs in the circuit have been above .500 for the greater part of the year. You are entitled to one guess as to what this club is named. CLUB PLAYERS BRUISED MULTNOMAH EXPECTS HARD COX- TEST WITH AGGIES. Manager Convlll Saya Corvallla Team la Heavy and Fast and Will Rank High This Year. So enthusiastically did the Multno mah Amateur Athletic Club football men work out yesterday morning on Multnomah Field that several were bruised. "Fat" Gault, who was consid ered a regular at center, injured his wrist and may be out for several weeks. Captain Len Striebig. right end, de veloped a sprained ankle and Manager James O. Convill will consider himself lucky if his captain gets in one-half of the game against the Aggies at Corvallis next Saturday. Owing to the scarcity of available centers, Clayton Patterson will begin Tuesday night to work out at the pivot position. He weighs 175 pounds. Manager J. O. Convill returned from Corvallis Saturday night, where he saw the Alumni squad beat the Aggies, 13 to 7. "The score should have been 7 to 7," said Convill yesterday. "One of the Alumni's touchdowns was a fluke. The Alumni had a great bunch out, com posed mostly of the last two years' stars bolstered by Walter Keck and Assistant Coach Everett May, who knew all of the school's signals. The Oregon Agricultural College will have a good team. "Coach Pipal has a large turnout and his men are not as light as things have been indicated. I saw Ozbun Walker weigh after the game. He weighed 196 pounds and they have several men heavier than he. 1 think Pipal will surprise the other schools." Merrill Reed Awakens on Yacht 'Mid Strange Scenes Cruiser Row Mar Drags Anchor to Rocka on Roaa laland and Party Hbh Hard, Time Getting Loose. MEMBERS of the Oregon Yacht Club and friends of Merrill A. Reed have a good one on the popular skipper.
