NEW YORK, Sept. "a brief
breathing spell existed today in the
National League as the four con-
tenders made ready for the final
drive. Only the Cubs and Cardinals
were to go into action.
The Giants are speeding West for
their crucial series with the Cubs
at Chicago. A disastrous stand by
the Cubs against the Giants would
just about eliminate McCarthys
team from the race.
The Pirates are making ready to
turn back the tail-end Phillies. The
series with the cellarites gives
Ownie Bush's team a glorious
chance to increase its lead while the
Cubs and Giants are battling each
other and the Cardinals are fighting
off the Robins.
