CHICAGO CUBS NEAR PENNANT WITH 1-0 WIN Cardinals Must Win Four Straight To Tie For First Place St. Louis. Sept. 26—(UP) — Rain today prevented the Chicago Cub* and St. Louis Cardinal* from playing th? second game of their scheduled five game series to decide the winner of the National League baseball championship. -St. Louis. Sept. 26.—(U.R) The National league pennant may pass tbday from the St. Louis Cardinals to the Chicago Cubs. With a string of 19 straight triumphs behind them, the Cubs need only to defeat the Cardinals iff the second contest of their five-game "showdown" series today to become new owners of the flag which the Cardinals won a year ago. T Big Bill Lee, the 6-foot. 3-inch Louisiana right hander who has won 19 games this season, will be called upon to administer the coup de grace. Lee has faced St. Louis twice this year; won one and lost one. The Cubs will fight to win today so they can give the pitchers a rest in preparation for next week's series opener. Dizzy Dean, who has won more games this year than any other major league pitc.ter. will be given the job of keeping alive the fading St. I-ouis hopes Dizzy has Shipped the Cubs in three of four games this season. The Cardinals' only chance is to sweep the remaining four games and then beat the Cubs two out of three in a post season playoff series which will be necessary if the teams tie for first place. If Diz does halt Chicago today, it’s a thousand to one bet he merely will be postponing a Cardinal debacle. The Cards were downcast today over their 1-0 defeat in yesterday's

I opener but the lighting spirit which carried them to a pennant i in the closing days of last season i still flared, "We aren't whipped yet." manager Frankie Frisch said. “Yeh. I'll buess I'll be able to stop them today." Dizzy echoed. |l But it seemed a task almost Im- - possible of achievement after the manner in which the Cubs func- ’ tioned yesterday. Even manager Charlie Grimm, who has been loathe to make a prediction, admitted today that j"we’re as good as in.” The truth in Grimm’s words was i backed with action yesterday in a game run in world series fashion. Four umpires—one more than is used during regular season ! games -were at the posts when i Paul Dean hurled the first ball of I the contest. Twenty thousand persons were in the stands. When it was over, two players stixid out in sharp relief — Chicago's Lon Warneke and Phil Cavarretta. Warneke won his 20th game of the season. Only 28 men faced him. He yielded two hits —a single by King and a double by Jimmy Collins —and fanned five. Cavarretta. 19-year-old fist baseman. : provided the winning run with a second inning homer that dropped on the pavilion roof. In defeat Paul Dean, who previously had halted the Cubs five times out of six. pitched brilliantly. He allowed only seven hits and fanned seven opponents. Neither pitcher gavs a walk. The New York Giants' hopes of catching the second place Cardin-; als were blasted when they lost a double header, HI-4 and 1-0. to Brooklyn in the only other National league games. In the American, the Cleveland Indians defeated Detroit, -3-2. Bos- • ton halted Philadelphia. 7-2, as Wes Ferrell won his 25th game and St. Louis defeated Chicago. 4-3. Yesterday's hero: Phil Cavar-' ■ retta. Chicago Cubs' first baseman. whose second inning homer provided the run which defeated St. Louis. _o — Trade in a Good Town — Decatur I

PURDUE ELEVEN MYSTERY TEAM OF CONFERENCE 11 Loss Os Two Backfield ' Stars Leaves Strength , Uncertain > Lafayette. Ind . Sept. 26 -<UJ!> |The big mystery team of the Big •iTen conference this season is Purs due. Even Coach Noble Kizer doesn't know how his Boilermakers are going to fare without the services Os" theTr famous touchdown twins,. D’;nne Purvis and Jim Carter. •We are either going to be very ' ' good or very bad.” he said. "Our I opening game with Northwestern Oct 5 probably holds the answer. "If we get off to a good start, we should be dangerous, but If we lose to Northwestern it will mean j a lot of experimenting to find a i winning combination for the other | games. "A poor showing against the > Wildcats also might have a devas-, tat Ing effect on the confidence of I our young players." | The 1935 Purdue team should be ■ stronger at center than in 1934; | stronger at fullback; equal at quart-i erback; stronger at guard; weak i er at tackle; weaker at end. and! weaker at halfback. Two veterans are available for I the posts left vacant by Purvis 1 and Carter. Leon Daiiey, who un J derstudied Purvis for two years. ' will play right half and do most 1 of the punting. Charles Wright, j 178-pound sub for two years, has looked best in practice among the. left half back candidates. Kizer insists that both jobs still i are wide open, however, with sev-; len men having an equal chance, [ Purdue students are expecting great things, for instance, from . iCecil label. 184-pound sophomore i from Houston. Tex. He is expect- j ; ed to be as great a star as Carter i ■or Purvis after getting some ex-' , perience. Fred Stalcup and Wayne Gift, major letter winners in 1934, will 'divide the work at quarterback. The offense is being built around ’ John Drake. 200-pound junior who l : should be one of the country's i best fullbacks this fall. He is a ' ' hard worker and a powerful plunger. Kizer, incidentally, is going to depend considerably on forward : ; and lateral passes. He has special- ■ I ized in a running attack for the last j three years. Captain Ed Skoronsky leaves little to be desired at center. The tackles are a problem mostly because of the lack of capable reserves. STANDINGS NATIONAL LEAGUE W. L. Pct.
