B.—The immediate reaction of the Pittsburgh j Pirates to the break in their long i winning streak may determine quickly and definitely the outcome of the National League pennant race. George Gibson's junner-up Pirates gained a full game on the j leading Chicago Cubs Wednesday, i chopping down* Chicago's lead to five games, but they snapped their string of victories at eleven straight. If the Pirates can zoom into another winning spurt, and if the Cubs play uncertain baseball, they j soon will be close on Chicago's heels.! Cubs Drop 3 in 7 Pittsburgh gained on Chicago on Wednesday by dividing a doubleheader with Brooklyn, while the Cubs dropped both ends of a twin bill to the Boston Braves. This double setback gave the Cubs three i defeats in their last seven games. A six-run rally in the first inning of the opening contest gave the Pirates an 8-to-3 victory over the Dodgers. Bill Swift limited Brooklyn to six hits. In the nightcap. Freddie Heimach held the Pirates to seven safeties, while Harris and Swetonic yielded eight to the Dodgers, who triumphed, 4 to 2. Big Rally Wins Boston humbled Chicago, 11 to 4. and 2 to 0. The Braves staged a sensational nine-run rally in the sev- I enth inning of the opener, breaking ! up a pitching duel between Frank j Frankhouse and Pat Malone. Ben Cantwell blanked the Cubs in the nightcap with seven hits. Baxter! Jordan homered for Boston in the first inning. Jumbo Elliott pitched the Phillies; to a 6-to-5 victory over the St., Louis Cardinals, beating Dizzy Dean. New York Giants downed the Cin- | cinnati Reds, 7 to 5. Joe Moore of j the Giants had a perfect day at bat j with five hits, including a home j run, accounting for three tallies. | Mel Ott hit his thirty-second homer.'

There’ll Be Many Hidden Faces If Cubs Slip Again
BY HENRY M’LEMORE "Tniled Press Staff Correspondent ’M'EW YORK. Sept. B.—Affairs in ; the National League have | taken a most ominous turn. This will never do. The Chicagos must win the pennant. They must win it first of all, for those thou- ! sands who went out on a limb on I them the minute they rolled up .a whopper lead. They must win in order to preserve the magnificent "angles" the Chicago sports writers | and others have thought up for a Cubs-Yankee series. It would never do for the writers to have to throw | overboard all those stories dealing with Joe McCarthy’s grudge against the team that fired him, the titanic battle between the two largest cities of the nation. , But most of all. the Chicagos must win for Charley Grimm. Through no fault of his own. Charley has been hailed as the "wonder man,’’

Vi arneke in Shape Again By United Press CHICAGO. Sept. B.—Word was received here today from Manager Charlie Grimm of the Chicago Cubs that Lon Warneke, the National League's leading pitcher, had recovered from a mysterious back ail-> ment and would be able to pitch against the Boston Braves in the eastern city Friday. Warneke has won twenty games and lost five. Warneke developed his ailment in Cincinnati Monday, but it responded to treatment by Trainer Andy Lotshaw and he will attempt to win his twenty-first game of the season Friday, Grimm said.

201 FOR KLEIN Bn Times Special PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 8 When Chuck Klein. Hoosier slugger with the Phillies, collected two hits Wednesday against the Cardinals, he boosted his 1932 hit total to 201.

and the “most inspirational leader of the age.” He has been painted as a man with all the virtues and none of the faults. He has become the idol of the masses, the hero of the little dirtyfaced boys in the street. If the Cubs lose, what will happen? The kids will be convinced that Grimm, after all, was just another manager, and that sweetness and light and musical ability aren't half as important to a winning club as a couple of clouting outfielders, a tight defense and two or three twenty-game pitchers. nun 'T'HEN. too, think about William Veeck, head man of the Chicagos. He stands a swell chance of losing face, as w 6 say on Bubbling Well road. For Veeck fired Rogers Hornsby because Hornsby expressed the opinion that the Chicagos were not a championship team.

And one can easily imagine how he will feel if they go gracefully into a tailspin, leaving the Pirates and Dodgers to fight it out. Hornsby may get that last laugh.

A POOR PLEA FOR BUSINESS We believe that the cry of “Patronize the Home Town Products” is a poor plea for business. If every city did likewise, it would hinder instead of help the return of prosperity. No community can isolate itself from the rest of the world and return itself to prosperity by buying only its locally manufactured products. And the plea of “Spepd your money with me because I am a home town boy, born and raised in Indianapolis” is another poor plea for business. The community at large is not duty bound to support you because you were born here. If Indianapolis supported only home town boys, what would we do with the rest of the fellows that happen to be born elsewhere. Indiana P’s owner was raised .right here in Indiapolis . . . but Sam Trotcky makes his bid for business only on the basis of giving Better Service, Better Prices, and a Better Service Station. We believe that every dollar’s worth of merchandise we sell that is made anywhere in this good old U. S. A. will bring in merchandise dollars that will help prosperity. We, for one, wouldn’t segregate Indianapolis if we could. ' Day and INDIANAD Riley Nite I ■ iMi ■ 1121 N. Meridian ■
Tribe Ends Hen Series Indians . Close at Toledo Today: Defeated Again Wednesday. By Times Special TOLEDO, Sept. B.—The Indians were to make their final Swayne field stand of the waning season today and on Friday the Hoosiers will open a short series against the Red Birds in Columbus. The Tribesmen suffered another beating here Wednesday, 7 to 5, the second in a row, and from the looks of the lineup now being employed by Manager McCann, the Indians evidently are headed for the second division. Toledo observers are of the opinion the Tribe club does not stack up as strong is on previous visits here. Anyway, on Wednesday, Leslie Bgrnhart failed to fool the Hens in the pinches, and only one of the ten hits collected off his offerings was wasted. Hen Pitcher Injured Twogood. southpaw, and Lawson hurled for Toledo, the former retiring in the eighth when a line drive hit by Johnny Cooney bruised his pitching hand. The Tribe hit total was nine. The Indians rallied in the fourth to take the lead, 3 to 2, but the Hens came back in their half of the same round and jumped out in front again, 4 to 3. The locals scored one more marker in the sixth and tw r o in the seventh. Two runs in the eighth closed the Hoosier scoring for the afternoon. The Hens used a mixed attack and it worked. The home nine sacrificed twice and stole three bases along with the ten hits piled up. Moreover, the slow-running Henline scored from third on the double steal, a play that has bothered the Indians nearly all season. Rookies Tried Out Extra base swats were poled by Bedore, a double, and by Odell Hale and Henline, with triples. Pilot McCann tried out a number of rookies. White was at short, Norris at second and Chapman in center field. Bedore, utility infielder, w r as at third. Pitcher Barnhart still is regarded as a rookie. Leslie was withdrawn in the eighth for a pinch hitter, and Bill Thomas finished out the toil on the Tribe slab. ✓ Frank Sigafoos, regular secondsacker, w r as given a rest, and it w r as the first time he failed to start in the Hoosier lineup this season.
