Lead American 4Vi Games
By JACK HAND
(Associated Press Sports Writer)
Baseball swings Into a fourth
vital intcrsectional series today
with the Chicago Cubs and De
troit Tigers, respective league
leaders, showing largest gains
over their 1944 mid-season stand
ings. A year ago both the Bruins
and Bengals were mired deep in
seventh place while today's won
and lost records show Chicago
one game ahead of the National
pack and Detroit with a 4 a
length advantage' in the Amer
ican, Both 1944 cnampions, the St.
Louis Cardinals and Browns,
are behind their '44 pace, the
Cards 1)1 games off last year's
pace and dropped from the lead
to third, Luke Sewcll's "Cin
derella gang" has had tougher
sledding, dropping from first to
sixth, six games behind their
pennant-winning gait.
Tigers Have Good Chance . .
Last year's American league
derby was tossed into a wild
scramble by the return of Dick
Wakefield right after the an
nual ail-star game. With Wake
field in left field, the Tigers
drove from the second division
into the fight, losing on the last
day of the season. This year De
troit has been first since June
12 and comes east to open in
Boston with a chance of build
ing a solid lead by a repetition
of their first successful road
jaunt.
Charley Grimm was just be
ginning to right the Cubs a
year ago after their disastrous
early-season . record when they
dropped 11 of their first 12
starts, now Chicago has just re
turned from a sizzling eastern
trip on which they won 13 or
IB., and displaced Brooklyn in
first place.
; -.- Braves Invade Chicago
'The Boston Braves, who were
manhandled by the Bruins 24-2
and lost an entire series to Chi
cago at home, lead the invaders
into Wrigley Field followed by
New York,-Brooklyn and Phila
delphia. The Dodgers open their
drive to regain the lead in Cin
cinnati and third-place St. Louis,
only la games off the pace, open
a series of night engagements
at Sportsman's park with the
Giants.

into submission in their six. 10
minute rounds or two out .of

moter Mack Llllard's crunch
card.
This pair of burly maulers will
go to the mat with the explicit
intention- of tearing off a stray
arm or leg and beating the un
fortunate loser, whichever It
may be, over the head with the
bloody stump.
This Is no exaggeration, as
both musclers have expressed a
desire to see the other patted on
the chest with a spade.
In the semi-windup tussle,
Paavo Katonen will try to re
gain some . of his laurels by
downing Buck Davidson, the ex
marine from San Diego.
Upon occasion Buck has been
known to give his opponents a
very rough evening and he
should have a slight weight edge
on the durable Finn.- .
- Paavo is gunning for a chance
to regain the light heavyweight
belt andean ill afford to lose a
decision to Davidson and prob
