BY HERBERT W. BARKER, ociated Press Sports Writ HE Chicago Cubs, picked in April to give the champion St. Louis Cardinals a fight for the National League pennant, apparently have decided a little late in the day to do some- thing about the runaway the Cards have made of the race in the Heydler circuit. Winning their second double-header with the Boston Braves in as many days, the Cubs charged right past the New York Giants into seccnd place yesterday and today stood a mere cight and one-half games to the rear the high-flying Cardinals. The Giants, splitting a double bill with the champicns, fell back into third place a full gams behind the Cubs. Malone Displays Form. Malone turned in one of his best performances in the opener against the Braves, which the Cubs win. 6-1. Malone allowed only 3 singles. while his mates pounded Cun- 10. The fortunes of war shifted swiftly for Randy Moore, Braves third sacker, in which went 10 innings before the Cubs won out, 3-2. Mcore in the two tying runs with a [ triple in the cighth, but his wild throw in the tenth put Charlie Grimm on base and the Cub veteran later scored | the winning run on Bell’s single. Home runs by Jim Bottomley and Chick Hafey in the eighth gave the Cards a 6-5 win over the Giants in the first game, but the Giants tcok the second contest, 7-5, by shelling Paul Derringer from the peak with a 5-run assault also in the eighth in- ning. Travis Jickson, Giant shortstop, was forced out of the game with a broken nose, when he was hit by Gel- bert's drive in the fifth inning of the nightcap. Brooklyn lost more groynd as the Cincinnati Reds took two games, 4-1 and 8-3, behind groat pitching by Silas Johnson and Owen Carroll, John- son allowed only fve hitsbin th* opener and Carroll gave up only six in the second game.
