Originally the quartet seemed set with Ernie Steele, Bob Bar rett, Jack Stackpool and Don Means but when the varsity de feated the Reds in a full length scrimmage 32-6 Bob Erickson was the standout performer on the field. He passed, ran and kicked like a veteran. Highlighting bis work were two expertly placed kicks, a 73 yard dash for a touchdown aft er catching a punt and a well timed and smartly thrown pass. The scrimmage, the first .oppor tunity the Huskies have had to work on a bright, clear day, since their practice sessions began, showed they are short on condi tion.

LOUIS, Sept. 20 (AP) The Chicago Cubs all but blasted the struggling Cardinals out of the National league pennant race Saturday with a terrific six-run explo sion In the ninth Inning after the Cards apparently had the all- important game In the bag. The crushing 7 to 3 deieat comina- on the heels of Brook lyn's twin victory over the plastic Phillies, knocked the KedDirds two full games behind the furious Dodgers. It left them with notn-j ing more than scant hope that some miracle might upset "dem fighting bums' In their seven re- maining games against the two last-place clubs. j Lean Lon Warneke, who had beaten every team In the league 1 this year except Chicago, was! plodding along In his most masterful fashion until the fatal ninth, having allowed only four hits. Then Phil Cavarretta, who I had . filed out three successive times, drove a hard single against the right field . screen and only a powerful throw by Rookie Ervin Dusak kept him ; from going to second. The ladies' day crowd of 18,652 rabid rooters seemed to sense the tragedy about to befall the strug gling pennant contenders, who had given the Brooks an exciting run for it since ApriL There was anguished silence in the stands as Warneke faced the next batter, chunky Dom Dallessandro. The dangerous little fellow j doubled to left field and Bill Nicholson walked to fill the bases with hone out. Babe Dahl- gren forced Nicholson at see- j ond, scoring Cavarretta. That left the gate still wide open and! five more runs poured through, almost befofe Manager Billy Southworth could holler for help. Lou Stringer's double over the head of Terry Moore, who lost the ball momentarily in the center field sun, scored Dallasandro with the tying run and sent Warneke to the showers, a downhearted veteran. The Arkansas humming bird had been trying for his 18th victdry to tie his best season with the Cards. The defeat was his ninth. ; He was relieved by Howard' Krist, who has a perfect record of 10 wins and no losses. Clyde McCullouch was passed pur posely filling the bases again. Bob Schefflng, who once man aged a Cardinal farm, came up as a pinch-hitter, and smashed the first pitch for a grand slam home run to climax the upris ing.

Billy Herman, Brooklyn second baseman, came over fast, fumbled the ball, but recovered In time to get Klein at first by an eyelash. j Until he tired with one but in the ninth and was replaced by Casey, Wyatt pitched one bf the greatest games of his career.
