No other -city has ever -won two pennants- in - one season. Now there appears at least a chance that Chicago may boost her own record by closing. the present season .withy three flag winners. ' '- - ; :' , .' ; . A month ago neither the Sox nor the Cubs was figured as a formidable con tender for championship honors, while Joe Tinkers Federal leagners were rated as having only an outsid chanc to bring horn the bacon.
