CARDINALS IN TOP PLACE IN SENIOR LEAGUE Beat Brooklyn Twice As Gians Lose To Chicago Sunday New York, Aug. 26 —<U.R>—The rough-house Cardinals from St. Louis, baseba-'l champions of the world, stood on top of (he National League today and defied anyone to remove them. From Manager Frankie Frisch down to a batboy who claims he tan lick any player on the team in a fist fight, the Cardinals are ready for a knockdown, dragout eretch battle which they claim w-11l end with the pennant nailed .Io the masthead of Sportmans' * Park at the end of September. “We’re heading the pack now and nobody’s going to stop us,” Frisch asserted after his Red Birds grabbed the leal from New York with an assist by the Chicago Cubs. The Cards practically are duplicating their late season drive of last year in which they snatched the pennant from the Giants in the c'osing days of the campaign. Then, as now. they capitalized on the faltering New Yorkers by putting on a winning streak in the stretch. On July 4 the Giants led the league by nine games, confident of a pennant. The Cards, spending much time scrapping among themselves. were second. Suddenly the fiiant-j began to r-ollap.se. The Cards, suddenly fighting together instead of with each other, started their drive. Yeslerday the Cards moved in again. Evidence of the terrific “swath" the St, Louis nine has has cut in the last seven weeks is seen by the fact 'that since July 4 they have won 35 and lost 14 while the G-lants won 37 and lost 35. The Dean boys. Dizzy and Daffy, who practically pitched the Cards to their ip?nnant in 1934, hurled them into the lead yesterday, Diz won his 22nd of the season by whipping Brooklyn. 10-3 -in the opener and Dal won his 14th with a 6-1 triumph in the second. The Cubs helped the St. Louis cause by knocking the Giants off, 5-4, for their third victory in the fourgame series which ended yesterday. That left the Cubs on 2% games behind 'the Cards and two in back of the Giants. • Pittsburgh strengthened its grip on fourth place with a double victory over Boston, 9-2 and 6-5 in 11 innings, while Philadelphia displaced Cincinnati -in sixth place by
