By ORLO ROBERTSON (Associated Press Sports Writer) It may not be very encouraging to fnns of the puce setting Chicago Cubs but the facts are, the SL Louis Card inals have a slight edge on the Na tional league champions so far this year in tneir games on lorcigu tieius, As the two clubG, separated by only one game on tbo losing side, invaded tbe east today the Cardinals not only had pLayed more games away from home but bad a better percentage. They pointed to a road record of 21 victories as against 15 defeats for a percentage of .583 while the Cubs had won 10 of their 20 games away from Wrigley field for an average of .522. The schedule calls for the Cubs and the Gas House Gang to make a trip around the eastern half of the circuit before returning- to Chicago Aug. 4 to open a four-game series than may go a long way toward setting the Na tional league pennant. Today's sche dule placed Chicago in Brooklyn and tbe. Cards at the Polo grounds against the Giants. - Yanks Go West While tho National league clubs continued their warfare on the east ern front, the New York Yankees marched into tho west, tho target for three first division clubs, two of them redhot, and the St. Louis Browns, The Yanks, after breaking even in 14 games at the stadium, opened their western invasion against the Browns with a nine game lead over the fast stepping Indians. If the ball they played In the east is any criterion, then Cleveland is the team Lou Gehrig nnd company must par. The Indians dropped only two gnmes in 12 contests to climb from fifth place to the runner-up position. ihe Chicago White Sox did even better. Buried in sixth place on Julv 9, they started combining hitting with good pitcning and when they arrived at Comlskey park today looked back i record. that numbered 11 vic tories, eight in a row. as coranared to only a pair of setbacks. j V; yVi; 1 Capt.
