Cardinals Collapse
Held CreQteStFau
In DiamondHistory
Associated Press


Here and there on the pages OF
Baseball history are recorded the
dramatic collapse of powerful base
ball machines, but the fall Of the St.
Louis Cardinals, National league
champions in 1923, threatens to 30
down in the books as one of the
most unexpected Of form reversals.
For two months the Cards were
in the thick Of the pennant chase.
Then they fell apart. There nave
been a number Of explanations tor
the collapse Of the champions but
most of the responsibility can be
traced back to a veteran pitching
staff that cracked wide open at a
time when Billy Southworth had no
up-and-coming youngsters capable
Of stepping into the breach.
Southworth's crew lost ground to
the Dodgers yesterday, bowling to
the New York Giants, 7 to 2, while
the Robins were turning back the
Cincinnati Reds, t to z. This left
the Robins only a game ana a half
out Of the first division.
The second place Chicago Cubs
shaved a half game off Pittsburgh's
lead By downing the Phillies in both
ends Of a double bill, 9 to 6, and
7 to 6. Chuck Klein hit his oath.
18th and 10Th home runs during the
double bill to assume major league
leadership in this department. Hack
Wilson got his 23rd, homer in the
first game.
An error by George Sisler enabled
the Pirates to beat the Boston
Braves, 5 to 4 in II innings and
stretch their winning streak to eight
in a row. The victory left the Pi-
rates leading the Cubs by two and a
half games.
The Yankees picked up half a
game on the Athletics by beating
Detroit, z to G, while the AS were
splitting a double bill with Cleve-
land.
Cleveland slugged Ehmke Tom
mel nd Yerkes to take the first

AS a sort Of breather in prepara-

closed their long home stay with a
4 to 2 victory ove the Steers. That
made it two out of three. Beau

third st-aight afternoon, 3 to 2.
The first half champs had
WiltSe, Spud southpaw, to blame for
their loss Of the closer. Wiltse wob-
hled at the outset, throwing George
Bischoff a hOmerun ball with n
on in the first, but from there on
he dealt the bandaged Bovines' mis-
cry. In the second Wiltse cleared
the bases with a double, sufficient
to win.
Sparkling fielding marked the fl
nal at Beaumont, neither side COM
hitting a bobble. Wetzel and Bal
ley turned in a couple of gems,
from all accounts. Bob Petrie
drove in the winning tally for the
shippers with a triple in the sew

USED GAR
MARKET IS
SEEN

Despite fairly high stocks which
ere almost universal and an mac.
tive market which has come to be
regarded as a natural state OF
sffairs at this season of the year,
the used car situation of the coun-
try as a whole appears to be in :
much more satisfactory condition
than 1t was this time last year.
q, cording to B. H. Cram, president

industry authority.
On the whole there Is evident an
almost general feeling OF optimism
that used car sales will improve
with the weather. Dealers appear
to be doing everything possible to
sell all the used cars they can now
ard they are meeting with consid.
enable success in number OF
markets.
There seem to be very few auto.
mobile dealers in the frame of mind
~ conspicuously evident last year
who could see and talk nothing but
the sed car problem and who were
willing to unload everything at any
price.
For one thing, the dealer has a
greater stock. On the whole, the
used cars in the dealers showrooms

year ago.
Prices are lower. Last fall saw
less reckless trading than did the
fall of 1927. With interest In new
cars we'll sustained throughout the
latter part of the year, there was
little need of 1t. And great many
of those who traded without regard
to the outcome in 1924 and in pre-

attention to the costly lessons they
had learned.
As the result. the cars are gen.
orally saleable merchandise, better
