CUBS AND CARDS FAILED TO GAIN
 AFTER 4 GAMES
Cut t-ThrOat Series Means Flag for Giants, Who
 Can Finish Today
BY LESLIE AVERY

lUnlGe0 Press St8n COETeSpOn0ent)
 New York, Sept. 22-(U.PO-Bill Terry can lead his New York Giants to the National League pennant by winning today'S doubleheader against the Philadelphia Phillies.
 Two more victories will win the flag despite anything the St. Louis Cardinals or the Chicago Cubs can do. The best the Cubs can possibly do is to tie for the championship and that would necessitate clean sweep of their five remaining games while the Giants lost all of the eight games they have left.
 Impossible?
 Only by winning all of their six games while the Giants are losing seven of the last eight can the Cardinals hope for the league title. The following table shows what the Giants will have to do to win the pennant.

If the Cards lose as many as three, overtaking the Giants will be impossible.
 Last Chance
 St. Louis remained in the running for the championship yesterday by squeezing out a 5 to 4 decision over the Cubs. Credit for the victory went to Jim Winford, who pitched eight innings, although his relief man, Ed Heusser, got in so much hot water in the ninth that the much over-worked Dizzy Dean had to come to the rescue and retire the last two men. Billy Herman's wild throw past first base in the last inning allowed Leo Durocher to score from third with St. Louis winning run to send Lon Warneke, who had relieved Tex Carleton in the third, down to defeat. It was the fulfllment of 8 prediction that the Cubs and Cards would kill each other off as serious challengers for the pennant. They split the four game series, ending up just where they started, with the Cards holding second place by a half game.
 In the only other National League game, Brooklyn scored 8 7 to 1 tri- umph over Boston behind the six hit pitching of Freddie Farmhouse. Notable was the attendance of 250, which possibly established a record low.
 There were no games scheduled in the American League.
 YESTERDAYS HERO: Dizzy Dean of the St. Louis Cardinals, who saved yesterdays game and kept St. Louis in the running for the pennant by retiring the last two men in the ninth while holding Cavarretta on third.

JUNEAU HAS ITS REAL SNOW FOR WIN TER SEASON
Two Inches Falls Here with Forecast for More,
 Turning to Rain

Juneau had its first real snow of the winter season today, a total fall of two inches being reported by the U. S. Weather Bureau. Due to the rising temperature it was melting rapidly and at noon only an inch and a half was officially measured, although it continued to lightly fall during the afternoon.
 Meteorologist Howard J. Thomp- son reported the forecast for more snow, turning to rain tomorrow.
 The first trace of snow this fall was on October 20, but it was just a furry and soon vanished The present fall began at 3:15 this morning and covered only the northern portion of Southeast AL aska, south of Taku River the weather was fair.
 The first snow last year was on October 23. It stayed on until November 5.
 It was slippery, sliding day on the streets and some motorists resorted to chains while pedestrians dug out the rubbers and galooshes, but then footing was precarious. Some minor trouble was reported in telephone service due to the snow on the lines.
 Snowballing, the first of the sea- son, was in order and the school grounds resembled the battle of the Marne, sincluding the noise.

SANTA BARBARA, Cal. (UP).
That vast audience which finds
voice in letters to the editor" is
sometimes wrong. 1t was when 1t
reported the death of Robert w.
Service. the two-fisted author of
Dan McGrew' and other poems.
George W. Lynn, managing edi-
tor of the Santa Barbara News
Press, had to call on Service HIM
self to prove that it was the pub
lie. not the editor, who was wrong.
1t happened when Lynn in 4
weekly column referred to Serv-
ice as the greatest living poet.
The editor promptly was deluged
with a flood Of letters, Gliding
him for forgetting" that the poet
was long since dead.
Lynn was a bit startled by this
mass of rebuttal, half-convlnced
that his memory might have slip
ped. Nevertheless he started writ
ing letters to Service, in care of
every major publishing company
in America and Canada. All the
letters were returned unopened.
The editor eventually found his
first tangible clue that the poet
still was alive when it suggested
he direct his letters to Europe.
Before long, a letter came back
