Tiie St Louis Cardinals may not
be going anywhere, but they're go-
ing there fast
Since Billy Southworth ascended
(?) to the managership last week
the elub has won five games and
lost none. But the Cards have been
in such desperate circumstances
that tills spectacular streak hasn’t
been enough to get them out of
the National League's second divi-
sion 'Diey'll have to keep march-
ing to overtake the Chicago Cubs
who are five games ahead of them.
The Redbirds created a stir yes-
terday by blockading the Brooklyn
Dodgers 4-1 and enabling the Cin-
cinnati Reds to regain first place.
The Reds reaped a 6-2 triumph
at Philadelphia to take a full game
jump over the Dodgers and also
shove the PhllUes into the Nation-
al League's cellar
Giants Near Second
Hie New York Giants got back
on the winning track and moved
within a game of second place
when Paul Dean continued his mas-
tery over the Chicago Cubs by a
2-1 score.
The Boston Bees, who couldn't
get any sort of pitching worthy
of the name in the early part of
the season benefitted from two
sidehit performances by Bill Pose-
del and Al Plechota In sweeping
i a doubleheader from the Pittsburgh
Pirates 5-3 and 5-1.
The stunt was sufficient to boost
the Bees from eighth to sivth place
