U — FEDS JIRLBUNCHED: NEW RECORD LIKELY Baltimore and Chicago Are Nip and Tuck For First Place , Due to the fact that Ave clubs in the Federal League are well bunched, the outlaws are attracting widespread attention. The Feds have a bis; bunch of boost ers in Harrisburg and vicinity. Pres ent indications are that the. Gilmofe teams will establish a new record for close scores. Pittsburgh, Aug. 7. Baltimore nosed Chicago out of the lead by downing the Chifeds Tuesday, and the Clilfeds, by beating the Terrapins, took the lead, but the race from now until the home stretch is reached in Sep tember promises to be a seesaw event between at least five clubs. Chicago, Baltimore, Brooklyn, In dianapolis and Buffalo are all con ceded a chance to win, and some ex citing brushes are expected as the teams near the stretch. Chicago in first place to-day is only six and one half games ahead of Buffalo in fifth place, with any one of the intervening clubs liable to change places over night. That the rival managers will go the limit in the efforts to land in front is seen in the move made yesterday by Joe Tinker, of the Chifeds, when he landed A. Rankin Johnson, of Texas, former speed marvel with the Boston Red Sox, who, with Pitcher Coumbe and Catcher Eagan, was recently traded to Cleveland for the Nap star \ean Gregg.
