PAGE TEN _ Major L ONLY 4-2GAME | PROVED MARGIN FOR-LOOP LEAD Major League Teams Thunder on Toward What Looks Like Memorable Season CARDINALS LOSERS Hard Campaigning in the Next Two Weeks May Loosen the 1928 Races (By The Associated Press) looks like the greatest dual finish since the memorable season of Merkle’s failure to touch second. De- troit won Ban Johnson’s pennant by half a game twenty years ago while the Cubs broke a tie in the stand- ing with the Giants only by defeat- ing the Clan McGraw, 4 to 2, ina play-off the day after the regular season closed. Hard campaigning in the next two ‘weeks may loosen the 1928 races, but for the moment, John Heydler’s three contenders are more closely bunched than were the Giants, the Cubs and the Pirates at a corre- sponding stage of the 1908 struggle. e American League today has only two teams in the running against the four which battled twenty years ago, but the Yankees and the Ath- leti romise to make up in drama ay lack in numbers. whi The National League situation be- came even more tense yesterday when Sheriff Fred Blake led the Cub: 6 to 1 triumph over the ing Cardi as the Giants Ore t a third straight double-head- er from under the nose of Rogers Hornsby at Boston.

But her dust of the others. Not discouraged, she worked away on a new horse, Palo Cres. This year, she and the beautiful bay strung into prominence when she took the money at several big events at the most important fair circuits. Palo Cres traveled at a 2:08 clip in one race. And her big victory came at the state fair here early this month when Palo Cres won the first big race and a prize of $1,000. The girl’s greatest boosters are the veteran drivers against whom she is competing. They rejoice in her victories, although they don’t give an inch in competition. She’s classed as a “square shooter” by Teinsmen.
