LESLIE AVERY United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Aug. 30.—Rookie | Clff Melton goes gunning for his | 14th victory of the season today against Cincinnati at the Polo | Grounds, and if he bags it the New York Giants will lead the National League tonight. It is the only Na- | tional League game. Today's game will climax a drive | started by Memphis Bill Terry's | gang on Aug. 12. Since then they ! have won 12 out of 15 games and gained six games on the Chicago Cubs who held the top perch today | by half a game or .002 percentage points. {3 By dropping five out of their last SIX starts, both the St. Louis Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Pirates appear to be out of the race. The Cards are 72 games behind the Cubs, and the Bucs are 10 games from the top. New York held the lead for a | couple of hours yesterday after they had beaten the Cincinnati Reds, 7-2 while the Cubs dropped the first end of a double-header to the Philadelphia Phillies, 10-3. But the Cubs came back to win the second, 2-1, and thus moved back in front by a | half game. Harry Gumbert scattered eight | hits to win for the giants, while the New Yorkers collected 11.
