 St. Louis fans today looked eager ly towards 2 possible east-west world series since the Cardinals were lead ing Cincinnati by two games and Pittsburgh by four and half.
 A decided break in the neck and neck finish that has gripped the National league for the past two weeks came yesterday when Gin cinnati fell before the Chicago Cubs, s 10 while the Cardinals were de- .feating Pittsburgh to C. The blow to the Reds hopes was most dis astrous for the round robin series between the four members Of the battling first division is almost over. Cincinnati must face the Pirates and Cubs when St. Louis has departed to the comparative rest and quiet of the Boston Braves ball yard. Then St. Louis, Cincinnati and Pittsburgh swing through the east playing series with Boston, Philadelphia, New York and Brooklyn. As fitting climax 10 a thrilling race, the Card inals will close the season at Cincin- nati Sept. 26.
 The Cards have sixteen more games to play and Cincinnati twen- ty. Winning those four extra games would tie the Reds with St. Louis If both teams split even in their eastern tour. Thus the issue would rest on the final game at Cincinnati before the frenzied sporting popu- lace of two cities.
 Lefty Bill Sherdel was the guiding genius in the Cardinal spurt yester- day. The southpaw veteran kept the Pirates in utter subjection, allowing but one man to reach third base. With Douthit and Hafey hitting op- portunily. the issue was never in doubt. Four errors behind Carl Mays proved the undoing of Cincin- natl.
 The New York Giants. with Cap tain Frank Frisch back in the line up, won and lost at Boston. The Braves dropped back into the cellar when the first game went against them to 2, and winning the sec ond, : 10 5, failed to get them out. with Philadelphia beating Brooklyn 5 to 0. Fred Leach put the Quaker attack over the top again with a triple and two singles.
 The Yankees eliminated whatever dought there might be as to the ul- timste winner of the American league pennant by running their lead over Cleveland to seven full games. The Tanks had no trouble squashing Boston 10 for the Red sox's 17th straight loss while the h. dians bowed for St Louis 8 to 3. The Red Sox. already buried deep in the cellar. seem intent on finding an even lower position. Even Uhle, the crack Indian hurler who makes practice of whipping the Yankees could not save Cleveland from the Browns.
 The margin Of the Yankees Is now go wide that by their winning but nine of the nineteen games remain ing, NieNtidnu "oulu De loICeu to taken seventeen out Of nineteen to win the pennant.
 Chicago won the last game of their season with Detroit, 4 10 2. and set the season total at ] f wins and losses In games with the Tygers. Two new youngsters, Purdy from Lincoln and Clancy of Little Rock, put over Chicago's winning tallies.

CHURCH LEAGUE STANDING

The Trinity Methodists assured themselves of at least tie for sec
 ond place in the Church league
 when they shut out the First Bap- lists, ITO, in a most one-sided game
 at Willow Brook park last evening. Shepard, who occupied the box for | the winners, pitched his second scorcless game and third consecu-
 tive victory in three starts holding
 the Baptists to three hits and being
 aided by perfect fielding. Keiffer's
 support, on the other hand, was
 ragged in the extreme, his infelders
 missing many drives they should
 have caught; h was hard hit too,
 and there was never any doubt
 about the outcome of the game.
 Three runs for the winner were
 scored after two men had been re- tired in the second inning, but a double play following a catch by
 Bassett stopped a rally in the third. | The fourth saw the Methodists
 count four times, and in the fifth, after choking a Baptist rally, the l NIHlsIS SldTleu q lerTlHC attack
 which drove keiffer from the mound with only one man out. Bassett took his place and a second batter
 was retired on q pop fly, but the i hitting went on until dark and the game was called with the Metho- dists still circling the bases.
 i Blauvelt and H. Pinkerton led the attack of the victors. Fielding fea- 1 lures were contributed by Allison. | Carroll, and Rassett. The line-ups and score by innings:

l The White Army had 10 work hard 1 to defeat Kensington by Al in an- other five-inning game, which gave
 them strangle-hold on sixth posi- Ition. The Jhitewings got off 10 an early lead when Linn scored and continued 10 push further runs over in the succeeding frames. Hoffman and Monkiewicz counting in the sec ond and Hoffman again in the fourth. Kensington threatened in the first but was stopped, scoring its lone tally when two hits sent Els worth over the plate in the fourth. Kensington played a much better game than it had in long while but could not hit Davis 10 advan- itage. The White Army was inst as helpless before Clark but took ad- vantage of the few misplays made | hy the losers. It was kensington's l4th loss in row and the White Armys last game Of the season.

RADIO BURGLAR IS
 GUILTY OF MURDER
Verdict Automatically Carries
 Death Penalty

New York, May Pt-A verdict of first degree murder was returned yesterday against Paul E. Hilton, radio burglar" by a jury in Queens county court The verdict is an au- tomatic death sentence. Hilton will be sentenced Monday,
 Hilton shot Patrolman Arthur Kenny of Brooklyn during March, while Kenny and two other officers were trying to capture him as he was engaged in one of numerous rohberies of wireless sets.
 The jury deliberated three and one-haIf hours. When it filed into the courtroom at 4;30 o'clock Hil- ton turned appealing eyes to his counsel and his voice trembled when he spoke to them. As the foreman read the verdict Hilton turned pale.
 No witnesses were called In Hil- tons behalf, and the only defense offered was contained in remarks of defense counsel to the Jury during argument, in which the possibility was suggested that Kenny had died from blood poisoning resulting from alleged improper medical treatment, and not from the wound inflicted by Hilton's bullet.
 For this reason Judge Adel charged the jury that 1t might bring in a verdict of first degree murder, second degree murder, first degree mansIaughter, second degree manslaughter or acquittal.
 William J, Ryan, chief of counsel for Hilton, announced after the yer dict that @ motion in his clients be- half would be made Monday.
