CHICAGO, Sept. 18.--By winning
the first game Of the double he ader to-
day before 10000 fans by to 0 and
the second by to 1, the Chicago Cubs
brought their record to eleven won and
ten lost in their combats with the
Brooklyn team. They finish their an
nual series with one game tomorrow,
after which the Dodgers leave for
three games in Pittsburgh.
Burleigh Grimes deserved to win the
first game to-day, as he held the Cubs
TO flve singles and no extra base hits.
He lost because the Dodgers could
make no runs from their six hits off
Virgil Cheeves's right-handed delivery,
and because Otto Miller dropped a
throw to the plate in the eighth inning
with two out and Flack on third. The
muf let in Flack with the Cub run.
Dutch" Reuther held the Cubs to
eight hits in the second game, but they
punched four in the first inning for
two runs. Reuther's own error in the
fourth helped the Cubs to another run
and two errors by Olson at second

Freeman. like Cheeves, held the
Dodgers 20 six hits. They would not
have scored off him if Reuther had not
reached first in the eighth on a tumble.
First Wonderful Pitching Duel
The pitching duel between Grimes
and Cheeves in the first game to-day
was one of the best of the year, and
they might have gone on indefinitely
if Otto Miller had not dropped throw
to the plate in the eighth inning and
caused Grimes to lose by 1-to-0 count.
Brooklyn made one hit off Cheeves
IN the second inning and another in
the third, without results, and in the
fourth inning made three singles in q
row with one out, but failed to score.
Wheat opened the fourth Brooklyn
| by dying on strikes. Myers singled to
left and took second on Schmandt's
single to right. Kilduff singled to left
and Myers started to score from sec
ond on the hit, but was turned back
by Barber's perfect throw to OFar-
rell. Myers reached third and OFar-
rell threw to Terry to get Schmandt,
but Schmandt slid back safely. Myers
noticed that 0'Farrells throw to Terry
was high and again started for the
plate, but was out on Terry's return

taken long lead on Terry's return
throw and OFarrell again threw to
Terry. That time the throw was bad
and Schmandt reached third, but was
left when Hollocher tossed out Miller.
The last Brooklyn hit was a safe bunt
by Miller with two out in the seventh
inning, and he was forced by Grimes.
Kilduff's charley horse appeared
again when he tried to field Flack's
slow hit in the fourth and Olson went
to second, Chuck Ward covering short.
Turner Barber was hit on the arm by
a pitched ball in the seventh and Sulli-
van went to left field for Chicago.
1t was Sullivan's fly in the eighth
that led to the Chicago victory. Flack
singled through Olson to open the
Chicago eighth. Hollocher bunted to-
ward Johnston, who was playing in for
a sacrifice, and the hunt went over
Johnston's head for hit, Flack taking
second. Terry sacrificed. Deal was

Sullivan flied to Griffith. Griffith's
throw to Miller at the plate had Flack
out by three feet, but Flack was. safe
