the third-place Giants eased the
leading Cards down into second, ike
y viii be determined by the New
York-Chicago series opening Men
day and the Chicago-St. Louis series

st. Louis has the inside track as
all Of her remaining games are at
her home park and are literally in
terlarded with open dates. partic-
ularly just before the "end-al and
be-all" series with Chicago.
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and
Thursday the Cardinals will be hosts
TO the Brooklyn Dodgers, then the
Red Birds get an open date Friday
before a two-game series with Gin
cinnati. Then come three open dates
and the four-game series with Chi

championship OF thu league.
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and
Thursday the New Workers play on
the Cubs home lot. Friday is an
open date for both clubs and then
Chicago takes on Pittsburgh in a
pair while the New Workers are
hosts to the Brooklyn Dodgers. Chi
cago then has two open dates. plays
one game with Cincinnati and forth
with launches into the four-game
series with st. Louis to close cut
the year. Meanwhile. New York
takes on Boston twice. Brooklyn
twice and winds up the year with a
