CARDS MAKE DRIVE WITH
 GOOD STAFF
(Bv JACK HAND

NDN JAOh llfANDl
 Associated Press Sports Writer
 Eddie Dyer's St. Louis Cardin- als are making their move toward a second straight National League pennant With l-balanced pitch ing staff, superior to the three-man crew which carried the burden during the 1946 stretch drive to victory
 A year ago. Howie Pollet Mur- " Dickson and Harry Brecheen had to stumble along with only oc- casicnal help from the other staff members. Now Dyer has that same trio, once. again approaching their '46 effectiveness and fine rookie in Jim Hearn plus better conditioned George Munger
 Munger could very well be the key to the pennant race. Last night he shut out Pittsburgh with three hits for an eighth straight Cardinal Triumph, 60.
 It's an encouraging picture for the world champs who have closed the Dodgers lead from 10 to four games in g weeks time. Their inn portant test comes in an extended eastern tour starting at Brooklyn Aug Is.
 Ge.S 5th Shutout
 While the Birds were blanking the Bucs, Brooklyn was shutting cut Philadelphia, 50. Ralph Bran ca, who had failed three times in search of his 17th win, finally made the grade, scattering eight hits to earn his fifth shutout
 The Boston Braves overcame New York Giant home runs by Buddy Kerr and Jack Lohrke to hang up 7-5 win in the tenth in- ming on a squeeze bunt by Johnny Hopp and a single by Frank Me Cormick.
 Bill Nicholson's 11th inning hom- CT enabled the Chicago Cubs to shade Cincinnati's Ewell Blackwell, 1-l, in the only day game played in the Majors. It was the third loss ill a rcw for Blackwell following his string of 16 straight victories.
 Do-Cr-Die Series
 Boston opening do-or-die series against the league leading New York Tanks, hammered out a 9-6 decisicn that cut the Tanks Am erican lead margin to 1912 games. Detroit and Cleveland both went ever the million mark in paid at tendance. The Tigers total hit 1,014,807 after their Az twilight less to Chicago.
 Al Gettel pitched Cleveland to Al nod over the St. Louis Browns before 34.O65 customers, boosting the season paid to l,0l2,847. A scheduled Washington at Phil adelphia night game was post poned by rain.

I THEFT OF JEWELS E
 REPORTED
Part of Fabulous Collection of German Crown
 Jewels Disappear
By RICHARD KASISCHKE

BERLIN, Aug. 9.--lF U. S. agents launched ar intensive in- vestigation today Cf the .nyster- ious disappearance of part of a fabulous collection of German crown jewels, and stepson of the last Kaiser said he thought the Russians were involved.
 Prince Ferdinand valued the 20 missing items at $2000,000 and the entire collection at $5,000,00O. The American Criminal Investigation Department agents previously re- ported the missing portion was worth more than s500O00 and the whole collection of 95 pieces about $l000,000
 The jewels belonged to Ferdin- and's mother, Princess Hermine, widow of Kaiser Wilhelm II. They were smuggled from the Russian occupied zone of Germany, and some quarters here speculated that the Russians might demand that the balance of the treasure, now in American custody, be returned to their zone.
 Agents said a young woman friend of the 34-year-old prince spirited the jewels from Princess Hermine, at Frankfurt Oder, to her son in the American zone. Princess Hermine died in the Rus sian-zon city Thursday.
 The prince said he had submit ted to truth serum test to sup port the version of the mystery he unfolded to American authorities.
 The prince said the jewels van ished from his trunk while he was living in the American sector of Berlin.
 The investigators said that when they were called in they found the remaining jewels partly in the overturned trunk and partly in a small suitcase on the table in the princes room. To keep them safe they took them into custody and they arc now in U. S-guarded repository at Frankfurt -on Main in the American occupation zone to await disposal of Hermine'e es- tate.

Bia Baseball Series Starts Sunday Afternoon; AII. .Siars,
 EIks 10 Play for Good Cause


 If the present weather continues they'll be off in cloud of dust at Firemen's Park tomorrow after noon at 2:30 o'clock.
 By they is meant the All-Stars and Elks baseball aggregations in what is called Juneaus Little World Series, and the purpose of the series is to raise money for the accident and disqualification fund for the baseball players.
 The series is to continue until one team has won four out of the seven games scheduled and, with the exception of tomorrows after noon game play will be every night, weather and grounds permit ting, until the winner is decided
 Managers of both teams today announced the tentative lineup of players for the opening game, as follows:
 ELKS
 Werner, shortstop.
 Cantillion, third base.
 Snow. first base.
 Holloway, catcher.
 Guy, pitcher.
 B Palmer, second base. Huston, Tyvoll and Smithberg, in the field.
 Utility players, Hagerup, F. Palmer, Gear, Rustad, Woodie and Logan.
 ALL-STARS
 Mierzejewski, second base.
 Nielsen, third base.
 Pasquan, first base.
 Jensen, right field.
 Forsythe, shortstop.
 McDaniels, left field.
 Cope, center field.
 Putzel, catcher.
 Phelps, pitcher.
 Utility men, pitcher and field CTS Magorty, Rollison, Floberg, huIlIlS, IOtlQ anu DtdA.
 All players will have large num- bers on the backs of their shirts so it will be easy to keep track of the playing. Score cards have been printed and will be sold at the games.
 There will he six unpmes, thus making is possible for three to be in attendance at the various games. The umps selected are Mollie MacSpadden, Bob Killiwick, George Shaw, Andrew J. DeBarra, Terry Magorty and Jim Gleaton.
 One of the ground rules prohibits anyone but the active players and officials allowed on the field.
 The admission to each game will will be 50 cents. Those purchasing season tickets for four games are getting in cheaper, as the four games cost only $50, and the season tickets have been selling at a good rate
 Of course the big interest in the series is whether the All-Stars can defeat the Elks. The other excitement hinges around the two managers, Judge Bill Holzheimer, who is directing the All-Stars, and Art McKinnon, chief mogul for the Elks. Art says Bill has picked the An-Star players and the umps, a hard combination to teat, but he is going to be on the grounds ready to make kick at the slightest provocation. Bill says go to it, but U. s. Marshal Mahoney, Chief of Police Milo Clouse and Chief of the Fire Department Minard Mill have served warning on both men that they will be at the games, and there is to be no fighting. no tangling of any kind-or either Bill or Art will go off the field with a firm hand on the slack of the neck and another on the slack of the trousers-in fact-thrown out.
 Rooters for the two teams have already warmed up and will be on hand to rib or hurrah. If the weather holds, the grand stand will be packed Sunday. Oh yes, the .Elks will appear in their new uniforms and incident ally Bill lost on the flip of the dollar to Art, and the Elks will be the home team. Remember, Play Ball will be
