For yesterday, it their first battle of the second cam: paign the pace setters were pretty badly shown up by the Cubs, a tean that for some time has looked abou as sad as the Athletics at their very worst. Chicago beat New York by 1 score of 7 to 1. In face of such a score, alibis ar( out of the question, Chicago was fa too good, in view of New York's gen, eral badness.
