GIANTS LOSE HALF A GAME Crucial Series Open With Cubs Today: Cardinals Sunday N«W York. Sept. 11 -<U.R> The I question of whether the New York | Giant* can stand prosperity is upi for settlement today us the Nat Iona) league leaders open their major hid for the championship in the fotir-day stretch in which their I challengers, the Chicago Cults and j the St IjOUis Cards, will demand satisfaction five time*. The Giants engage tile Cults to-1 day and tomorrow and the Cards I iu a double header Sunday and a single on Monday If the Giants can withstand this ’ challenge and maintain their 3*4 game margin over St. Louis, they should be in a position to smash their way to the pennant, although ' they still have five games with the Brooklyn Dodgers, and nothing gives the Flatbushers more pleasure than to knock the .Manhattanites out of a race toward the end of the season. The coming five games between the three flag contenders is fraught with possibilities The Giants can wind up no worse than a second place tie with the Cubs a game and a half behind the Cardinals, and that is conditional upon their los* of all five games, which does not seem probable with manager Bill Terry's great screwbailer. Carl Hubbell, at his top form of the season. Hubbell is scheduled to start ' againet Chicago today, and if ' Terry's other hurlers are battered about too much Saturday and Sunday, the lanky southpaw may draw the Monday assignment. The Giants dropped a full game to St. Louis and Chicago yesterday. when they were halted. 7 to 2. by the Cincinnati Reds, while the Cards were whipping Boston.
