With exactly two weeks of the campaign remaining, the Cardinals possess a game and a half lead over the Dodgers on one of the tightest pennant races the National League has ever known. However, both teams are all even in the lost ledg- er. The Cardinals’ advantage is all in the win column since they've played and won three more gamecs than Brooklyn. . Unless rain interfers, the Dodgers should make up those three games by Friday, at which time each con- tender will have played 146 games with eight to go. The Dodgers’ 19- inning tie with the Cincinnati Reds is slated to be played off Friday. The Cardinals gained a full game on the Brooks yesterday.when they defeated the Giants twice 3-0 and 7-4 while the Dodgers were held to a split by the Cubs. Gnats Stop Game After dropping a thrilling 4-3, 10-inning decision to the Cubs, the Dodgers, behind Kirby Higbe's one- bit pitching, bounced back to win the afterpiece of the double header 2-0. The game was halted after five innings by a combination cf semi-darkness and a swarm of gnats which infested Ebbets’ Field, packed to capacity by 32264 cash customers. Dave Ferriss, Boston's brilliant Sophomore, won his 25th game as the American League champion Red Sox split with the Chicago White Sox. Ferriss allowed eight hits in winning the opener 4-1 but Chicago came back to blank the Red Sox 6-0 behind Johnny Ringney.
