By the Associated Press Labor Day efforts having failed to do much in the way of setiling the National league pennant problem, the senior circuit swings into the last month of the 1930 season with the Chicago Cubs holding a four game lead over the Giants in second place but with the Cardinals loom- ing as the most serious threat only a half game further back in third position. St. Louis was the only one of the four leaders to win a double header yesterday, the Giants and Robins breaking even and the Cubs drop- ping both of their encounters. As the result the Cards jumped into third place, shoving the Robins back into fourth and left the league standing like this: i Pet Chicago 3 59 New York St. Louis Brooklyn .. 73 Tn moving ahead of the Robins, the Cards walloped the Pittshu Pirates 11 to 6 in the morr then repeated with a 5 to ming in the afternoon. Flint R was the winning pitcher in the a contest while Grimes had ar time with his former teamm the p. m. session. Kremer was out 0 win his 20th game in t second but had to be relieved by Spencer. Red Lucas and Benny Frey put together a pair of pitching performances to deal the Cubs’ pen- nant hopes a stunning blow, the Reds taking t ner 5 to 0 with Lucas pitching three-hit ball. and the nightcap 2 to 1 as Irey set the champions down with five hlows. The Cubs had the second zame won 1 to 0 with two out in the ninth when Sukeforth’s hit to center bounded over Hack Wilson's head for a triple. and scored Stripp and Crawford. who had drawn a base on balls. The Giants were cracking the ball at a terrific clip, getting 27 hits in two games but they lost the nightcap to the Phillies 4 to 3 after taking the opener 8 to 4. With Carl Hubbell holding the Phils to seven hits and J.each and Hogan hitting homers and Terry pounding out a triple. double and two singles, the first game was easy. Thirteen hits rang off the Giants bats in the second encounter but Bill Walker's wildness in the carly innings gave the Phillies a lead which the McGrawmen were unable to overcome Wally Berger's 32nd home run was instrumental in dropipng the Robins into fourth place. the drive accounting for three of the Braves runs that beat the Robins 5 to 3 in the first game. Hollis Thurston pitched good ball and drove in two runs with a double to give Brook- lyn a 4 to 2 decision in the second contest. Lopez's homer scored all of the Robins’ runs in the fir; me. While lacking much of the color of the National league race. the Philadelphia Athletics and New York Yankees drew a crowd of 000 into the Yankee stadium to see an even split in the feature s of the American league. The world cham- pions took the opener 3 to 2 because of Al Simmons' 32nd home run but Charlie Ruffing set them down with two hits to give the Y: to 0 victory in the second. Lofty Grove stopped a Yankee rally in the first game by reliecving Mahaffey and struck out Babe Ruth with two men on base. Ruffing fanned Simmons three successive times in the second zame. The Senators cut the A's lead to five and one-haif games by taking the Boston Red Sox into camp twice, 2 to'2 and 6 to 3. Lloyd Brown was largely responsible for the second victory. He relieved Marberry with two men on base and none out in the Tth but retired the Red Sox with- out a score and then drove out a home run to put the Senators out in front. Cronin's spectacular catch in the ninth inning of the first zame with the tying ird saved the opener for the Senator Wesley Terrell won 24th vie- tory of the season and 15th in a row as the Cleveland Indians down- eod the St. Louis Browns 13 to § and 9 to 5. Terrcll hurled the second +me while Willis Hudlin th winning pitcher th er counter. The Chicago White Sox were victims of Detroit's h, the taking both ends of the holiday bill 6 to 5 and 4 to 2.

An over-confident Sacred Heart | baseball team bowed to a fighting Holy Cross team at Wilow Brook park Sunday by the score of 9 to 5 The victory for the Crossers makes the city championship series even as the Sacred Hearts, Burritts anl Holy Cross have each won and lost a game.

Al- though the Sacred Hearts reached him for 15 safe hits he managed to keep these well scattered and re- | fused to vield a safc blow in the pinches. The losers did most of their |ting in the early innings but |improved as the game went alonz and had them completely at his merey during the last four frame: John Cabay and Val Gaj, who handle the Sacred Hearts, dug up a gent named “Red” O'Hearn to do the twirling for their club. “Red” | came with the reputation of being a | former college star who is slated to | get a tryout with the Yankees next | | spring.
