Their twoE runs seemed to take a
lot Of life out of the champions
and their third run in the sixth
eettled the argument for the after
noon.
Mostil opened the game with a
single to right and stole. Hume

Falk sent long fly to Goslin in

For a couple of frames the
Griffs did nothing and then they

Scratched q hit to Collins with
one gone, advancing ON Ruefher's
single to left. Faber lost control
and issued two passes. the second

Lest the champions become too
dangerous the Sox grabbed another
run in the sixth. Falk singled
and advanced on sacrifice
Kan1m's infield hit sent him flying

In the eighth the Griffs made
noises that looked like runs though
they brought but a lone. tally.
Myer singled with one out and
counted when Joe Judge smashed

The same thing Is true in the Ma.

the Giants and the Indians go
through this home series without

can count them out. They're
through.
And talking about remnants, let
me tell You that folks here In st.

Cardinals are due to cop. Even
the Browns are pulling for them.

George Is strong for the Cardinals
"They,ve got good pitching,
they've got good fielding and thsy
can clout that ball; George said.
And what is more important
Hornsby has them all fighting.
They've got faith In themselves.
They're convinced that they are the
team that will win the pennant.
Personally I'd like TO see the
Cardinals win. st. Louis has never
