FULLERTON, JR. (Associated Tress Sports Writer) Most of ‘the baseball news so far this season has been that the fans are due to get @ good supply of bar- gain bills in another month or so. Double headers have been piling up at a rate of almost one for every two games on the major league schedule during the first week of the cam- paign. The four western teams of the Na- tional league, the only ones to get through all their games so far, pro- vided_most of the action yesterday end Cleveland and Detroit alone did the honors.for the American leaguc. Hallahan Good But Wild | At St. Louis, Bill Hallahan of the Cardinals turned in one more of the | brilliant pitching feats that have marked the start of the season to beat the champion Chicago Cubs, 11 to 1. Hallahan still was “Wild Bill,” giving nine walks, but when he got the ball over the plate the Cubs swung in vain at it. Eleven struck out while only two hit safely. { The Cardinals, who have done most of the heavy hitting so far, drove Guy Bush from the mound with 11 hits in five innings and continued their mauling against Lonnie War- neke and Lynn Nelson, a pair of re- cruit right handers. Flagstead Hits Well ‘The Pittsburgh Pirates, with old Ira Flagstead in the lead, did some timely hitting against Jakie May to take their third victory in four starts from | Ser. the Cincinnati Reds, 5 to 3. Flagstead hit a single, a triple and two doubles | © Jess Petty, | 5' in five times at bat. though wild at times, was effective on the mound for the Pirates. Ethan Allen's second successive home run and a pinch double by Harry Heil- mann brought the Cincinnatt runs. With Wesley Ferrel, young right |! hander, taking up his good mound work where he left off last season, the Cleveland Indians handed the Detroit Tigers their first defeat of | 5°") the season. The score was 7 to 1. Ferrell did not allow more than one hit an. inning until the ninth. The Indians were able to bunch hits off Ownle Carroll and were aided con- siderably by the wilderness of Art|}.
