By JUDSON BAILEY Associated Press Sports Writer ' The cup of cheer for St. Louis baseball fans Is briming over today with the Cardinals chopping away viciously at the Brook lyn Dodgers and the Browns installed in third place in the American league. In the past the people of the metropolis on the Mississippi have shown they could take their baseball or leave it alone. But evidence of the spirit among them now is the combined turnout of 58,848 for two successive bight games with the Dodgers this week. . They set a record for a night game in St. Louis Monday night with 25,588 and last night 33,260 jammed into Sportman's park to set a new mark and to see one of the mqst breath-taking base- . ball battles of. this or any other season, r For 12 innings the struggle was a scoreless standoff between those master hurlers, Whit Wyatt of the Dodgers and Mort Cooper of the Cards. Then things start ed happening fast. Manager Leo Durocher and Coach Chuck Dressen of the National league champions were banished from the field. In the 13th Brooklyn broke the spell with a run off Cooper and the Hedbirds retal iated by tying the score against Wyatt. - ; Larry French, ' the veteran southpaw who hasn't been beaten by any club except St. Louis, smothered the rally, ,but in the 14th he and Rookie Les Web ber were victimized for the de ciding run with the Cards get ting a 2-1 triumph on a close play at home plate almost exact ly at midnight. It was the second straight suc cess for the Cardinals in their flourishing bid to overhaul Brooklyn and reduced the mar gin between the clubs . to 51 games, but it was rivalled by the big stride of the St. Louis Browns far away in -Washington, where they captured a twi light-night doubleheader to move into third place in the American league. Al Hollingsworth and Dennis Gatehouse combined in a seven- hit hurling job to stop the Sen ators 8-1 in the first game and George McQuinn set off a rally in the 11th inning with a single to win the nightcap 3-2. The St. Louis spurt was help ed by the Boston Red Sox, who clamped down twice on the Cleveland Indians 4-3 and 5-1 during a turbulent doubleheader in which the first game went 11 innings, Manager Lou Boudreau and two Cleveland players were expelled between games for arguing with umpires. . The New York Yankees were held to seven hits by Johnny Humphries and scoreless for six innings, but the defense of the Chicago White Sox collapsed to give the world champions three runs in the seventh and Joe Gor don homered with one aboard in the eighth for a 5-3 verdict.

S 1 2 -A r of iwi aamsasin isj nolas Keep Storting Linoup Secret, Concen trate on Defenso Tactics By ARNOLD DERLITSKI CHICAGO, Aug. 26 (-.Chicago's big bad Bears, the profes sionals who never lost a foot ball gnmo in all star competition at Soldier Field, nre taking every precaution in preparing for their fourth venture against die cullt.'giut!s tnclay night. For ono thing, Owner-Coach George Halas has decided to keep his start- p ing lineup a se cret until game time. For another,, he has had Clark i Shnughncssy, his frequent colla borator on T formation plays and a precision expert, supervis ing drills at the Bears' Delaficld, Wis., camp. Most of all Halas as had the Bears getting in plenty of de fensive licks. Tho Bears ordinar ily don't worry too much about what the other team is going to do. Their tactics are based on maiiitaitiiiit; possession of the ball most of the time. Defensive drill was designed to stop, among others, Bill Dudley of Virginia, who ran wild in all star practice last week., "I think everyone will agree," Halas said, "that the all stars have superior material this year. They have another advantage because their coach is Bob Zupp ke, a master at inspiring ath letes. As for the Bears, I'm not telling any secret when I say we're not quite as strong as we were last year. . The all stars also went through a snappy rehearsal yesterday and tonight will hold a brief session under the lights at Sol dier Field. The ninth annual contest, to be. played for army and navy reiiet, already is assured of record attendance of 101,000. r Pro-Armv Tilt LOS ANGKLES, Aug. 26 W uwner George Preston Marshall of the Washington Redskins thinks Suiuia.v's football game here between his boys and MaJ. Wallaco Wade's army All-Stars is a toss-up, or would bo but for Texas boy In his backflold, chap named Sammy Hmigh. "Baugh Is positively the great est who ever played," Marshall said in the course of Ills observa tions about tho contest. "He might be tho difference between victory and defeat, I think we're in for a really tough fight. Wade, although pleased with the physical condition of his men, was inclined to agree that Bnuah would bo hard to stop, "but for that matter they have a lot of fellows who are going to be hard to stop. They have the power ana mey navo the polish." Suds Nip Seals in 12,4-3 Turpin Wins PCL Matinee Test; Twinkt Upset Soloni, 3-1; Oaks Shad Padr.t rAoirio coast league ' L lvt. W I, Pel.
