"+ CUBS RETURN HOME FOR LAST STAND IN PENNANT FIGHT

Dropped Six Out of 9 on Eastern T rip

Bruins Now Full Game Be- | hind Giants Who Are

By GEORGE KIRKSEY United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Sept. 3.—The Giants are winning the close ones and the Cubs are blowing them—and that may be the answer to the National League pennant race. The heat was on the Giants yes- | terday and they came through with a 5-4 victory over the Cardinals in 10 innings to increase their lead to one full game. But when the Dodgers put the pressure on the Cubs, | the men of Charlie Grimm blew an- | other game, 4-3, in 11 innings, After a disastrous trip through the East, the Cubs were on their way home today to play 22 of their remaining 32 games. Unless the Cubs do an about face at Wrigley Field they are in serious danger of | fading out of the pennant battle. | The Cubs’ Eastern record was | three wins and six losses. They tossed away three games with mis“plays. An error by Phil Cavarretta started the Cubs’ downfall yesterday. He made a wild throw to Bill Lee, covering first, in the eighth inning. Bucher doubled and Hassett singled, tying the score. Then Max Butcher's single drove in the winning run in the eleventh. It was the fifth time Rill Lee had tried to win game Nc. 13 and failed. ‘ McCarthy Comes Through

Fast Lynn Advances In Jr. League Play

In Upsets of Loop Leaders

| Birds, Hens, Millers All on Short End; Double Bill At Stadium.

| With all three American Associa- { tion pennant contenders finishing {on the short end of the score last | night, the Columbus Red Birds ( maintained their one-game lead | over the Toledo Mud Hens and with | Minneapolis in third place one-half game behind the Hens. The Indians figured in the upsets by annexing the series opener from Toledo at Perry Stadium, 4 to 3, Louisville blanked Columbus, 5 to 0, and Milwaukee trounced the Bushmen, 7 to 3. Wade Killefer's Redskins celebrated “Bob Logan Night,” and following a wedding shower at the plate for the popular southpaw

pitcher, the two teams waged a close fight which was decided in the eighth inning when Oscar Eckhardt blasted a home run. | Logan worked the first two rounds | for the Tribesters and then was | withdrawn in favor of Lloyd John- | son, who finished out the toil on the | Tribe mound. Emmett Nelson, former Tribester, hurled for the visitors. The teams will battle in a twi- | light-moonlight double-header today, at 4 and 8:15, and conclude the series tomorrow night. Louisville will play two games here Sunday afternoon and one Monday night to wind up the Indians’ home schedule. Approximately 3500 fans turned out for “Logan Night” and he received a carload of wedding gifts ranging from an automobile to a live chicken. He was married to Miss Evelyn Reid of Pawnee, Neb. on Wednesday and club officials, players and fans co-operated in giv=ing him a rousing testimonial. In addition to Owner Norman A. Perry's presentation of a De Soto sedan, donors of gifts were the Rogers Jewelry Co, Haag Drug Co, Harry Krause Co., Klor Jewelry Co., Indianapolis Railways Co., Hoosier Petroleum Co. Cdsh and Carry Paper Co. William Barber Shop, Spalding’s Athletic Goods Co, Kingan & Co., Sunshine Cleaners, Denison Service. Florsheim Shoe Co., Ambuhl Poultry Co. and cash from fans, teammates and employees of Perry Stadium. Shut out for six stanzas, the Redskins went to work on Nelson in the |

seventh and deadlocked the score at | 3-all on a walk to Taylor, a single | by Riddle, Archie's double and | Kahle's single. In the eighth, after | one owt, Eckhardt bounced the | sphere off the wall in center and | made the circuit around the sacks | standing up before Cullenbine | caught up with the ball and returned it to the infield. Taylor singled, stole second and Riddle was given an intentional pass, but Nelson tightened and preNE further scoring.

Johnson retired the first two Hens {in the ninth, but Reiber came | through wtih his third hit of the | game and Manager Haney batted | for Nelson and poked a single to | center. Sullivan ran for Reiber. | Johnson worked carefully on Clif- | ton, however, and his fly to Taylor ended the struggle.

Funk’s Triple With 3 on Wins for Chevrolets, 6-3

Charlie Funk's three-base hit with the bases loaded in the eighth inning gave Chevrolet Commercial Body a 6-to-3 victory over the Indiana Avenue Markets in last night's feature game or Softball Stadium'’s “Pot O' Gold” tournament. The Markets tied the score in their half of the seventh, when Red Williams tripled and scored on an infield out, but two walks and a hit paved the way for the Chevrolet scoring in the extra inning. Art Laxen was on the mound for the winners, while Al Young and Henry Gooch pitched for the Markets, In the other tourney game, Joe Blasengym limited American Can Co. to one hit to win a 10-to-0 victory for Crown Products.
