THE GOOD OLD DAYS By Hugli S. FiilliMton Ir. (Associated Presn- Sports Writer) . Between the lit, the Brooklyn Itobinn and Philadelphia Phillies have ubuut the greatest array or sheer sluggiiiff talent any pair of teams in the two major leagues can produce, but they haven't dlnplayed It to a very good ad vantage, through the first games. Their blows were rather weak and Ineffective until they : sot together yesterday und then, there ..wore more than plenty. It all started wlion Fresco Thompson, Phtllle leadof f mini, stepped up to the plate In the first Inning and drove the bull Into the stands for a home run. It didn't en1 until the ninth inning who Kpotts, the third Phtlllo catcher to appear, took advantage of an error by Flowers to romp home from third with the run that gave Philadelphia a 10 to J 5 victory. In between there cmno 38 hits, 21 uf them going to the Phillies, n parade of pitchers and pinch hitters and one big scoring rally after another. Stinting- with Jim Faulkner and ending with Bill Clark, the Koblns used six hurl--crs while the Phillies called on four. In all 35 players took part ".n the game. Southern and Thev enow of Philadelphia, and Fred-, crick and Flowers of Brooklyn took the leading slugging roles, yielding only to Chunk Klein's third homer of the season. The Brooklyn-Philadelphia was the only nutjun league gumo in the east which survived the wintry rigors of the weather. One west ern contest in cacli league resell ed its end while Pittsburgh tried to hold Its homo opening -against Cln ' clnnatl but gave it up in the third 'Inning when a snowstorm' swept over the field. Cubs Defeat Cards '. The Chicago Cubs, champions of the National league last season, got buck above Die .500 mark by beating out the St. Totiis Cardinals 6 to 5, In j the other National league gunije. The Cubs got five runs in the third Inning only to have the Curds get them all buck again before the ninth, Charley Grhnm came through In the ninth with his third hit of the gauve to bring Hack Wilson home from third with the winning run. Char ley, winning his first game of the year In three .starts, outliiHted a trio" of Cardinal pitchers, r The St. l.ouls' Browns were tho only American ' leaguers to in crease their avnruge, defeating the lietroit Tigers for the second time in succession. 6 to. t.
