CHICAGO CUBS BEAT GIANTS Bruins Still Believe They Will Win National League Pennant New York. Sept. 14. U.R) The Chicago Cubs believed today they could duplicate their September 1929 rout of the New York Giants and win the National league pennant. Yesterday they licked the Giants 2 to 0 In the opening contest of the last-chance six-game series. This victory was particularly, stimulating because it was gained at the expense of the Giants' ace ; pitcher, Carl Hubbell. It pared down the Giants' league lead to six 1 and a half games over the Cubs and 1 Pittsburgh Pirates who are tied tor second place. The Cubs and New Yorkers were to have played a double-header but ■ rain caused postponement of the ! second contest, forcing a new > double-header today. Another twin bill will be played tomorrow so j that the series can be finished by Saturday night. Should the Cubs, who have lost ■ only 16 more games in their home . park all sestson, sweep this series, i it would put the Giants on the thin edge of disaster. Some 15,000 Chicago fans saw the Cubs nick the mighty Hubbell for two runs in the first inning, resulting from three singles, a walk, a force and Bill Terry's error. After a two-hour halt between the! second and third innings because I of rain. Bill Shores replaced Hub-i bell. Together they allowed the [ Cubs eight hits, one less than the I Giants made off Guy Bush. The Pirates remained deadlocked with Chicago by scoring their i third straight shutout, a 1 to 0 victory over Boston, behind Larry French's four-hit pitching Ben , Cantwell allowed the Pirates sev-I en scattered safeties. Pittsburgh made the lone tally in the first ; frame when Freddie Lindstrom doubled and came home on Pie I Traynor's single. Dizzy Dean pitched the St. Louis | Cardinals to a 4 to 1 win over

UPSETS MARK GOLF TOURNEY National Open Champ, Medalist And Other Favorites Defeated r . Cincinnati. Sept- 11. (U.R) The . links of treacherous Kenwood, .which ruined the hopes of 24 stalI wart golfers, including the national | open champion. Johnny Goodman. the record breaking medalist. John'ny Fischer, and two former title.l holders in yesterday’s volcanic 11 eruption of upsets, were cleared toI day for the 36-liold quarter final ' matches in the national amateur • golf championship. In three of the four matches today. it was youth against experj ience, while the fourth match brought together two players of J equal ability. •I Still wearing the crown he won hast year nt Five Farms. Md.. Ross (Silent Sandy) Somerville, Canad- ■ ian bond salesman, matched his 'strokes today against Lawson Little. husky, curly-haired Stanford j collegian from San Francisco. Throughout the first two rounds lof play, yesterday. Somerville was I tottering on the brink of defeat, but his stout-heart and stylish strokkes enabled him to survive where Goodman. Fischer, and the two former champions. Chick Evans. Jr.. Chicago, and Chandler Egan. Medford. Ore., failed. Remaining in the battle with] ISomerville and Little were Sidney I ! .Noyes. Ardsley, N.» Y„ who was | .'graduated from Yale last spring: I Marx Marston, Philadelphia 1923 I champion; Jack Westland, Chicago, 1931 finalist: Jack Munger. 18-year-lold Dallas, Tex. boy: Eddie Held. Jamesburg. N ¥.. former transMississippi champion, and George IT. Dunlap. Jr., Flushing. N.

Sept. 14 —-(UP)—Min-| 1 noa polls and Columbus were all ' square today in their playoff series I I for the American Association base-i I itall championship. Minneapolis took a well-earned I ' 5 to 3 triumph in the second game i of the series. Wednesday night. • Most of the game was played in a ’ drizzle of rain and it was necessary to suspend play for 52 minutes in the eighth inning when the d' iz- ! zle turned into a downpour. Paul Dean, the Columbus fireball! I artist and an effective "night ball "; pitcher, was to w-ork for the R d I Birds on the mound in the third game of the series here tonight.' ■ Manager Dave Bancroft of Minnea-. i polls was expected to send Walter. | Tauscher to the box. Last night's victory for Minnea1 polis was a personal triumph for j pit.her Harry Holsclaw. His hurl ■ ing was almost flawless and his > ' single in the seventh helped pave .th way for a run. Holsclaw. de- , j seated several times during .he reg- j ular season by Columbus, allowed only six hits last night and kept i the blows from becoming neighborly. A sharp rally by Minneapolis in the seventh when Columbus held i a 2 to 1 lead really was the winning gesture. (After two outs had been made in that round. Holsclaw singled. Andy Cohen doubled and Leo Norris tripled to score three runs. That seventh inning bombard* ment was enough for Clarence i Heise. He was relieved by Jim Win ford, who finished tire game. Three balls found their way over the park fences for home runs, in the second Joe Glenn, Minneapo-' lis catcher, lifted one out of the, park, in the ninth Art Ruble smash-i ed one for Minneapolis and Bill !>•- laneey hit one for Columbus.
