St. Louis Captures Sensational 20-Inning Game From Leading Bruins for Ninth Victory in Row; Robins Take Over Second,

BY DIXON STEWART United Prei SUff Correspondent CHICAGO, Aug. 28.—Gabby Street’s rejuvenated St. Louis Cardinals added further complications to the turbulent National League pennant race when they defeated the league-leading Chicago Cubs, 8 to 7, in a thrilling twenty-inning encounter here Thursday In the first of a fourgame series.

Wes Ferrell Hangs Up Twenty-Third Triumph

BY HENRY MJLEMORE • United Frees Stiff Correspondent NEW YORK, Aug. 29.—Armed'with tremendous speed, a sharp breaking curve and plenty of control, Wesley C. Ferrell, a country boy, has

made good. By pitching the Cleveland Indians to a 10-to-5 victory over the Chicago White Sox Thursday, Fer- j rell scored his twenty-third win of the year and tightened his hold on first place in the intra-league pitching race. Ferrell, incidentally, wasn’t satisfied with pitching alone. He hit a triple, double and a single to help his own cause along. Trfe win also marked his twelfth consecutive triumph. - j Lefty Grove and George Earnshaw of the Philadelphia Athletics, Ferrell’s chief rivals, have won 21 and 20 games, respectively. With the American league season still a month to go, Ferrell may win thirty games and thus become the first major leaguer to reach that mark since Jim Bagby turned the trick for Cleveland ten or so years ago. Ferrell didn’t win all of his twenty-three games against weak clubs, either. He beat the Athletics three times, Washington and Detroit the same number of times and the New York Yankees twice. . He is six-foot two and weighs 195 pounds and is a shining example that all rookies who have a great first season are not flops. He won twenty-one and lost ten last season. his first. •. Only 22 years old, with his best years ahead of him, Ferrell may yet justify the belief of some critics that he is another Walter Johnson, Cy Young, Amos Rusie or Christy Mathewson.

every likelihood that the crowd will see a bargain offering of hotly contested events.

Top-seeded combinations face each other here Saturday in the finals of the men’s national tennis 'doubles championship. The end of the semi-finals Thursday found the field left to the defending titlists, George M. Lott, Chicago, and John Doeg, Santa Monica, Cal., and the second-rank-ing entry, Johnny Van Ryn, East Orange, N. J., and Wilmer Allison, Austin, Tex. Bill Tilden, yoked with another veteran, Francis T. Hunter, stood for five sets between the Lott-Doeg tandem and the final bracket. But Lott and Doeg won and Big BUl’s hope that he might play his eighth national doubles final in twelve years was shattered. The inspired Van Ryn and his occasionally erratic partner, Allison, after a desperate quarter-final tut, found the going somewhat easier against the fourth-seeded pair, Berkeley Bell and Gregory Mangin.
