Giants Whip Cardinals By SCOTT BAILLIE United Press International SAN FRANCISCO (UPD-Willie Mavs still can unloose that- home run ball despite his latest slump and a little instruction is all that Valmy Thomas needs to come up with some extra power of his own.

However, the Giants remained in . third place behind Pittsburgh which also won.

The Cardinals wind up a three game scries here today with Billy Muffett (4-3) scheduled to start for them against leftrhander John ny Antonelli (12-10L "How about that Thomas?"
