 CHICAGO CUB:
BY CARL LUNDQUIsT


 | United Press Staff CorreSpondentr New York, July 30.-(UP) Both the pennant-borlnd Cubs and the hjde-bound Yankees cashed early dividends today on the much-dis- cussed Hank Borowy deal. v.
 The Cubs benefited tangibly Pitcher Borowy got off to a 3 to 3 winning start to give them a double victory over the Reds at Chi cago. Another Hank-Wyse-took the opener to 1, for his 18th win. The willy Wyse, who hasn't had re- lief in any winning start this sea- son, let the Reds have II hits but toyed with them when men were on base The victories ran Chi- cago's string over Cincinnati to l3 wins without defeat this season. Borowy would have had a on-run game except for fly which Bill Nicholson lost in the sun. Nichol- son had the lapse coming, however. He started the Cubs to victory with two-run homer. ~ The Yankees haven't gotten any of the several" players to be in- cluded with the $100,0O0 reportedly . raid by the Cubs for Borowy, but the psychological benefit of the deal probably helped them win two from the Athletics at New York, ? to and II to 3.
 Tanks Popped Up gerr
 President Larry MacPhail, warn ing that there would be other deals and that they might not involve shifts to teams in the pennant pic- ture, had the players keyed to a high pitch.

 In another single game at Boston, the Red Sox beat the slipping Sen- ators, 8 to 4, with Bob Johnson set- ting the pace. Johnson had per- feet day with a double and three singles and ran his major league hit total to 2,0O2, going over the mile stone with good measure. Fermin Guerra hit Washington home run /. off Emmett O'Neill.
 The champion Browns, battling hard now to stay out of seventh place remained tied in sixth with the Indians by splitting pair at Cleveland. Newman Shirley won the [ opener for St. Louis, to o. shading the veteran Mel Harder. Jim Bagby countered with to 0 Indian shut out.
