With the bases load ed, Lou Kloln, stellar second baseman, rapped a bounding hit to Cubs' Third Baseman Pete Elko, who stepped on the bag to force Marty Marion, but threw late to first attempting to double Klein, and Ray San ders scored from third. For a time the Cubs, who were the victims last year when the Redbirds won the pennant on the last day of the season, had the champions worried. They got six of their seven hits off Max Lanier, the winning pitcher, 'in the first three in nings. Singles by Ed Stanky Bill Nicholson and Ed Sauoi produced the only run of the game for the Cubs In the first.
