NOT PLAYING
CHAMP BALL
Neither Giants or Cubs Have
Been Showing Right,
Says Critic.
B Grantland Rice.l

sSN
The same sort of squirt which lifted
a bale of wind from the Giants and
left them putting on the highway has
now gotten In its deadly work on the
Cubs. From Juyy 1 to August IL,
coming at rushing speed. the Cubs
cut away ten games of the Giants
sixteen game margin. But having
Drawn that far along. they pulled up
with a Jerk, gasping for breath.
On August IL the Giants started
west with only a six-game lead. Since
that date they have played uneven
ball. with only a faint shade better
than an even break. But up to the
fashionable hour Of tall noon Thurs
day the Cubs had been unable to
whittle away any more Of the precious
edge. Against clubs they would have
beaten easily four weeks ago, they
have crumpled up and fallen back.
They could make no Roadway over
Boston. Brooklyn or st. Louis. They
lost ground to Pittsburg. The six
game advantage was still extant to
Thursday.
The sum and substance of the situa-
tfon Is that neither Giants nor Cubs
are playing championship ball, but
that the Giants can afford to pike
along stolidly as long as the Cubs are
unable to close in.
Unless something happens between
Giants and Cubs soon. 99,S76 critics
will lose all control Of themselves in
the effort of self-suppression. They
are now Juggling at the lash to fore
cast the winner Of the next big show
and begin picking EN- with only q
rude technicality in the a as to
who will be the other section of the
sketch. But for this the big debate
would already have been oficially de.
cided around 100000 hearths.

athletes in record work. the creates,
