from the Boston Braves by win

A terrific charge by MitcheIIs

could get three men out the Cubs
had four talIies registered, enough
to have won the game, but to make
sure OF it they wallOped in two
more in the second and one in the
seventh. The Braves made gal
liant attack in the third, but were
repulsed with only one man count

netted two runs after which they
were completely subdued.
All told the Cubs knocked the
ball around for Is base hits, making
things uncomfortable for two BOs-

Raglan started, but after the first
inning he was seen no more. His
place was taken by Bunny Hearn,
