CAROS GAIN ON CHICAGO COBS Despite Injuries, Illness, Cards Only Game From Lead - New York, July 31. — (U.PJ Frankie Frisch had his St. Louis Cardinals within a game of the National league ceiling today despite troubles enough to take the heart out of a less hardbitten bn nch. Only a ga s house gang could take the blows the Frisehinen have suffered and stay in the thick of the fight. Paul Dean, who was expected to carry about a third of the pitching Toad, is lost indefinitely with a sore arm. Dizzy Dean is terribly overworked. Stu Martin, sensational rookie infielder, is laid up with stomcah trouble. But the Cards keep plugging along. There's not another teain in the league that doesn't boast stronger pitching than the Cardinals. Besides Dizzy Dean there are only Jim Winford, a gem of a rookie; undependenable Hoy Parmelee; another question mark in Adalph Huesser, and a trio of old men by the names of Jess Haines, George Earnshaw and Flint Rhetn. To offset spotty pitching the Cardinals have their famed fight and a batting punch featuring the bludgeons of Joe Medwick. Johnny Mize and Pepper Martin. Winford handcuffed the opposition with four hits for his sixth victory as the Cardinals defeated the Brooklyn Dodgers. 7-0. yesterday. The first-place Chicago Cubs lost their second straight to the New York Giants, 3-1, to have their two-game margin of leadership cut In hlaf. Pittsburgh defeated the Boston Bees, 5-3, in 11 innings. Cincinnati and Philadelphia split

CITE FRIENOLY RELATIONSHIP — President Roosevelt Is Warmly Welcomed To Quebec Quebec, July 31 —(UP)—Speaking partly in French. President Roosevelt today cited the more than century of peace between Canada and the United States and their 3,000 mi'es of undefended frontier as an example that the rest of an armed world might well follow. Mr. Roosevelt spoke in response to welcoming addresses by Canada s highest officials after colorful ceremonies marking his arrival in this city on the first offtial visit a president of the United States ever has paid to the dominion. The policy of the good neighbor. 1 the President said, is exemp’ified not only in the relations between the United States and Canada but also in the amity with which two dominant racial stocks — French and English—have lived side by side here. Speaking in Quebec, where the French influence is strong, Mr. Roosevelt emphasized that point by talking .partly that tongue.
