The will start paying- off on the New York Yankees as American League pennant winners almost any day now. Having taken two out. of three from their rivals and reduced the lead of the St.

Louis Cardinals to a single game, the New York Giants are driving along at a furious pace, helped over weak pitching spots tremendous home runs which are sailing to all corners of the Polo Crowder Turns In 20th Win of Season With Four Hit Performance Hugmen Faltering But Still Keep Two Game Lead Over Weary Mackmen If cn y.

Both teams, weary from the terrific strain of the desperate fin Dunn Field, Cleveland, Sept. 2I.

(I'P) The -Cleveland Indians defeat. I'd the New York Yankees this after, noon in the second game of the final series between the two teams by a score of 4 to 3, but the world chain, pious maintained a two game lead, over Ihe Athletics.

The Mackmen bowed lo the St. Louis Browns today, making hut four hits oft Alvin Crowder aid sacrificing what was just about their last chance to overtake the world's champions.

While the Yankees were faltering on the road, the Athletirs, who were only a game behind last Friday could have taken the lead by making a clean sweep over the week-end. Instead, the Mackmen failed dismally. The Cleveland Jndians heat the. Yanks today, 4 to 3, while-the St. Louis Browns were defeating- lie.

Five thousand windchillod fans at Sports-man's park here today saw the pennant aspirations of the T'hiladt Ipliia Athletic run fold of a pitcher's aspiration for his 201 victory of the yea r.

As a result, Alvin Crowder led the Pt. l.oni.s Browns to a brilliant (i-2 victory, featured liy in lit scoreless innings in which only one hit a harmless double by Haas -was registered against him.

Thereafter the Drowns scored but one run, on Mcdowan's homer in the eighth his tliiid hit of the day and the Uranus' eighth.

Tbe Cards, heating Brooklyn 9 to 2, lead the Giants, who turned back the Beds, 7 to 4, by a single game. Both teams have six more games to play.

The race is likely to continue right down to next Sunday, when they meet in the closing game of the season. The Yankees now can cinch the pennant, by winning four of their remaining six games, no matter if the Athletics make a clean sweep, The Yankees have one more game to play than the Athletics, Connie Mack having carelessly tossed away the opportunity to play off a postponement with tlie Boston lied Sox.

All of which is highly improbable.
