Mo, Sept. 27 —(U.R)~ The St. Lous Cardinals are National League champions again •is a result of the greatest pennant dish since that of the Boston Braves in 1914. Bv defeating Pittsburgh here vesterdav. 10 to 5. the Cardinals clinched their third pennant in five seasons and culminated a drive wh’ch did not get under way until August f rst and did not assume sn'-etacnlar power until 20 days later. Br'nging the pennant battle to ( a c’ose on Sept. 26 meant something more to phlegmatic Charles 'Gabby” Street, manager of the ■bib. than fans had previously supposed. Twelve years ago on Sept. 26 Street, then sergeant in the First Gas Regiment, chemtuaj warfare livis'on, laid down a smoke bar.■•'■’o for infantry starting the ' "onne di've. October 2. just before the world series starts, it will lie 12 years to the day since Street was wounded by machine gun fire. The Cardinals on August 1 were ! n fourth place. They had won 48 games and lost 49. Since then fey have won 43 and lost but 12. a feat that has caused Street to become known here as "the m’racle man.” The Cardinals record against opponents since August 1 follows: With Chicago, won three, lost 1 four; Cincinnati, won 10, lost none; Brooklyn, won seven, lost i !one; Boston, won five, lost three; I New York, won five, lost three; Pittsburgh, won four, lost one; Philadelphia, won nine, lost one. Street believes his entire team I will be In condition for the world series, although Jimmy Wilson, catcher, and Sylvester Johnson 1 and Bill Hallahan, pitchers, are on I the ailing list. Hallahan came down with a cold yesterday that sent him to bed. while Johnosn has a fractured rib. Wilson's ankle, injured on the last road trip, is mending slowly. Whose Million - Albany, N.

It .vas the first defeat of the season or the Monroe aggregation and, forced them into a tie with Monmouth tor the league lead. As b. others usually get along, there were several arguments during the seven inning tilt. Kirkland itarted the scoring early and got two in the first and four in the third innings for the Kangaroos’ only counters during the game. Then the Bearkatz started a rally in the sixth inning which netted three runs off Hoffman, second man tp in the final frame gave Mon oe new hopes by slugging out a home-run. The rally was shortened, however and Kirkland won 6 to 4.
