They are within five and one-half games of the lead, the second week in August, for the frst time in twenty years. While, these Cardinals are officially in third , | Place, they are there by less than one point of percentage. By winning to- day's game from the Champs, Miller) Huggins has a chance of lifting his club into second place—a little more than four games behind the topnotch- ors. But that isn't the only danger that confronte the Giants, The Boston Braves, in their wild onrush, are just one full game bebind the Cardinals and in another ten days they are likely to be barking at the heels of the Champs. Strangely enough, the Giants have never been seriously worried about the Cubs even though Hank O'Day's club has been in second place for more than a month, All along they have maintained that the Carde and Braves are both stronger than Chi- cago, and it begins to look as if our athi had the right idea.

The fact that Bundy took the court and that Karl H. Behr was sent gave rise to the opinion expr by experts that Bundy was to play the doubles cup match and not Behr. Robert D.

Players and officials were notified to be on the courts before 2 o'clock so as to start promptly.
