CIawless Chicago Cubs Are
 Playing Dual Role in Senior Loop Race
CBy JOE REICHLER) }

Associated Press Sports Writer)
 If you can predict when the cur rently clawless Chicago Cubs will occupy the role cf victims or vil- lains, you might be able to get an idea of which team will win the National League Pennant.
 Charlie Grimm's second division Cubs, going nowhere themselves, nevertheless have played an inn portant part in the fortunes of the two top contenders, the front run ming Brooklyn Dodgers and run ner-up St. Louis Cardinals.
 Eearly in the season, Brooklyn wen 13 of Is meetings with the Cubs, who in turn smacked down St. Louis in seven out of ten clashes.
 Early in the season, Brooklyn a 10-game win streak, Chicago took the Brooks three straight, but when St Louis showed up, prompt iy lest their bite and succumbed meekly eight straight times-the latest being last night when they bowed 3-1 to the southpaw slants of Harry CThe Cat Brecheen.
 Brecheen's victory, his fourth over the Cubs this season, enabled the Redbirds. to reduce the idle Dodgers lead to three games.
 Brooklyn's margin over the Cubs IS now 13-5 while the Cards have an ll-7 edge over Chicago. Each contender has four games left to play with the Cubs.
 Bucky Walters, Cincinnati right handler, twirled a neat eight-hit 8-3 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates, his sixth of the season and 196th of his big league career, to send the Reds past the Cubs into fifth place.
 Dave Kcslo handcuffed the Phil lies 80 on five hits in night game in Philadelphia to register his l4th victory against seven de- feats The win left the Giants six games off the pace.
 The Boston Red Sox moved with in l112 games of the New York Yankees in the American League Pennant race by winning a 10 thriller from Washington in Bos- ten while the Philadelphia Ath- letics were taking a 3-2 decision from the league leaders.
 Rookie Bill McCahan made it two in a TOW over the Yankees and BCbo Newsom, limiting the Bronx Bcmbers to seven hits including a triple by Joe DiMaggio, who re-

 The Les Angeles Angels finally got their ome-uppance last night as All Stars from the Coast Cir cults ether seven teams pulveriz- cd the League Leaders, l2-2.
 Home-run king Max West of San Diego started the swatfest with a two-run roundtripper in the first and the All Stars wound up with a trio of homers in a six-run splurge in the ninth inning.
 It was such a rout that the 19,- TOT Wrigley Field Partisans booed Justify when Angel Manager Bill Kelly finally derricked pitcher Bob Mccall after the latter had been blasted for six straight hits in the closing debacle.
 The boces, it was plain, were re- served for Kelly who also drew sportswriters' criticism for holding back his ace pitchers, and firing with Bill Fleming, Mccall and Don  Osborn who were maced for Is safeties.
 The ninth inning homers were belted by Dain Clay, San Diego; Nell Sheridon, San Francisco, and Frank Kelleher Hollywood - the last two in succession.

Holzheimer's All-Star aggregation seems to be too much for the ElKs to handle, or at any rate they will be hard pressed to equal the All Star teams hitting strength as It appears after two games in Ju- neau's Little World Series.
 The combined Moose-Legion team drove in eight runs, six Of them earned, against three by the Elks. of which two were earned, ln last nights tussle in Firemen's ball park.
 Playing under threatening skies' and with a tail wind to urge the ball along, Eddie Nielsen in the second and Jensen in the flttn each sent a home run to the lar side of Gold Creek, longest hits so lar this year
 Jensen put another in Gold Creek curing the first inning, and For sythe dunked one in the sixth to give the All Stars four homers TOT 
 the game, six so far in the series. Holloway got the lone circuit clout TOT the Elks, during the fifth in ming, third of the series for his team.
 Almost as large a crowd as was at Sundays game attended last night, and made every bit as much nose, q good deal of it directed at the umpires, as usual.
 Weather permitting, there will be another game this evening, with the All Stars leading off and the Elks in the field at 6:30 o'clock.
