IN MEL OTT'S judgment the one man the Cardinals can't lose and still win the N. L. flag is Slats Marion, their long shortstop. The Giants’ manager said in all his time in the league he has seen only one other shortstop he'd compare with Marion. That would “I'm speaking as a defensive worker,” added Ott, “the stops Marion makes and the way he gets the ball away. He makes plays against you other shortstops don't even go for, those impossible plays that leave you shaking your head and wondering
On the day the cables revealed Marcel Cerdan, the French marine middleweight, is to cross the Atlantic for two fights, one in Canada, the other in New York, both for the Free French marine fund, we received a V-letter from Midget Smith who is stationed somewhere Much of the letter was devoted to a discussion of Cer“I saw him about a year ago,” the former was in an inter-camp bout.

Perfect Throw by Peck
Cotelle singled to right and Farrell was caught at the plate on a perfect throw by Hal Peck. Tribe Manager Mike Kelly claimed that Brewer Catcher Pruett tagged Farrell with his glove and not with the ball, but Umpire Mullen said “no” and called the runner out. It was a very close play and only a perfect throw on the fly made it close. The Indians threatened again in the ninth and got two runners on base as a result of walks, but the old needed hit in the clutch wasn't forthcoming.

Golfers were stymied by strikers today as tractor drivers on five
Detroit links quit their jobs, leaving grass and fairways uncut. Managers predicted at least three of the courses would be closed within the next five days unless the drivers, members of the Municipal Workers union, (C. I. 0.), returned to work. “Unless the grass is cut by tomorrow or Wednesday, it will be impossible to find a golf ball on the fairways,” they declared. The drivers are striking in demand for pay increases.

The edge was taken off the defeat for the Giants, however, when "Bill Voiselle, tneir “tough luck” rookie, who has lost several games that a break could have won, snapped his six game losing streak with a three-hitter of his own. Voiselle pitched the Giants to a 3-1 triumph in the nightcap and the split held the Cardinals’ lead to four games over the second-place Pittsburgh Pirates. The Brooklyn Dodgers swept both ends of a double-header from the Cincinnati Reds in the day's biggest upset. Poor pitching, a rarity for the Reds, cost them the first game, 8-7, as walks forced in the tying run and placed the winning counter on base. Bob Chipman, who pitched one inning, was the winner. Rookie Second Baseman Eddie Basinski drove in two runs in the second game to give the Dodgers a 3-2 victory for Rube Melton. * The Boston Braves brought an abrupt halt to the Chicago Cubs’ seven-game winning streak by taking both ends of a double-header, 7-3 and 7-4.

yesterday's loop contests. The meat packers smothered R. C. A, 25-1, as Allison's, who had shared the top berth with them after three weeks of play, dropped a 14-12 decision to U. S. Tires. Lowell Young clouted the ball to all corners of the lot to pace the Kingan attack. He had seven hits in seven trips ‘to the plate, winding up his activities with a ninth-inning home run. ’ A ninth-inning - double by Bob House that drove in a pair of runs, gave the Tiremen the edge on Allison's, last season's city champions. P. R. Mallory made it three out of four with a 18-2 decision over Cur-tiss-Wright in a seven-inning game, Lee Lady’s four hits was the feature of the winners’ attack.

Stewart-Warner took a 7-5 verdict from Lukas-Harold, Bob Durham holding the losers to five saféties, as he struck out 16 batsmen. Bob McClimon was the leading hitter with four for four.
