They've taken four straight now, winding up with a twin win over the Phillies yes- terday, 4-2 and 7-4, to give them a record of five victories in their six sturts since returning to Wrigley field. Befor: them are nine more games at home, including a four-game scries with the Giants next week. The injuty-ridden Cards took their third straight beating at the hands of the Bees, losing 10-3 to the seven-hit pitching of the veteran Guy Bush.

If the local club, now one of five teams left in the meet, wins, it will be on an equal footing with the other entries in its fight to retain the title. If it loses, it will be eliminated from the tournament, as it has already lost one game. Neil Churchill will probably start Hilton Smith or Ted Trent on the mound in the crucial engagement. Barney Morris, star hurler, probably will be unable to play, as he has been suffering from water on the knee. Ted Radcliffe, catcher, and Davis fielder, will probably be on the side- lines with injuries also. Local fans can follow their team’s progress at Lawrence stadium to- night in the State Recreation parlors, next door to the Grand Pacific hotel.

The Brewers, virtually certain of first place, finished their regular home season yesterday in a double- header with the Kansas City Blues and the ‘semi-official checkup re- vealed that the club had played be- fore a total attendance of 275,191. A ar ago, a seventh place club per- formed before 117,000, less than half of this year's. turnout. Milwaukee lost both ends of the final show, 5 to 2 and 8 to 6, but the defeats produced little cause for worry, for the Brewers finished the day 11% games in front of the Blues, who slipped past St. Paul into second place. Saints Lose Third St. Paul dropped half a game be- hind Kansas City by taking its third straight beating from Minneapolis, 7 to 2, While Arch McKain was hold- ing the Saints to seven hits, the Mil- ler sluggers laid down a barrage of six home runs off Glen Spencer and Bill Cox. Indianapolis preserved its scanty margin over Minneapolis in the bat- tle for fourth place by defeating Louisville, 6 to 5, in a night game. Toledo outslugged Columbus in the first game of a night double header, 12 to 11, but the Red Birds came back to win the seven-inning after- piece 3 to 2.

Paul, Aug. 27.—(#)—Eau Claire, Jamestown, Winnipeg and Fargo- Moorhead Thursday stood the best chance of getting into the champion- ship playoff for the Northern Base- ball League, scheduled to begin in @ little more than two weeks. With the top four teams to com- pete in the playoff there was a mark- ed dividing line between the first and second division in the eight club cir- cuit, largely as a result of games yes- terday. Thirty-four percentage points separated the fourth place Fargo- Moorhead team and the fifth place Superior club. Jamestown belted out a 10 to 5 de- cision over Wausau yesterday to pull up within a single game of the lead- ing Eau Claire nine which lost 14 to 5 to the Fargo-Moorhead Twins. Winnipeg, in a batting slump for @ number of days, came out of it with @ bang to take a double header from Superior 5 to 1 in 10 innings and 10 to 3.
