Redbirds Fall Behind Brooks Br The Associated Press The St. Louis Cardinals, prc-season favorites in the National league, may wind up among the also-rans because of their in ability to win at home. Including yesterday's double loss to the New York Giants, which dropped them three and a half games behind pace-setting Brooklyn, the Redbirds have won only six of 13 games at Sports mans' Park percentage of .400, and fully ISO points below their over-all pace. A pair of former mates Bobby Blattner and Walker Cooper beat the Cardinals yesterday. Blatner scored the only run as the Giants won the opener 1-0, then homered in the 11th inning of the nightcap to give the New Yorkers a 7-6 decision. Earlier in the afterpiece, Walker Cooper, for whom Giant President Horace Stoneham paid the Cards $175,000 last winter, slammed a home run with the bases full. Oaks Keep Loop Lead Br Th Associattd Press Tall, lantern-jawed Herschel Martin maintained the Oakland Oaks Pacific Coast league lead with a 320-foot homer with a man on base yesterday. His blow won the second game, 2 to 1, after a 12 to 2 rout by the Los Aneeles Angels in the opener. The split allowed Oakland to coast into a series beginning Tuesday against the runner-up San Francisco Seals with a three game margin. The best the Seals could do in their struggle for the top rung position was a split with the Hollywood Stars, taking the first game 6 to 4, and dropping the closer 3 to 1. Dick Barrett, pitching perfect ball until the sixth inning, led Portland to a 5 to 2 victory, in the first game, but Sau Diego came back in the second contest to win 4 to 2, via home run by Tony Criscola with one on in the fifth. Dewey Soriano pitched shut out ball for the Seattle club to give the Rainiers a 1 to 0 victory, over Sacramento in the second game of a doubleheader. Jerry Staley led his mates to a 4 to 3 Sacramento win in the opener, Portland and San Diego play tonight at 8 o'clock, to finish up their series. Portland then goes to Sacramento, Seattle to San Diego, and Hollywood to Los Angeles for this week's other contests. Walter Johnson's Condition Unchanged WASHINGTON, June 3 OP) "Condition unchanged" was the report today on Walter Johnson, seriously ill with a brain tumor. Physicians at Georgetown hos pital said yesterday that the one time pitching ace had "lost ground in the last 24 hours."

The Braves, with Mort Cooper notching his third win. won the opener 6-3 and the Cubs cap tured the nightcap 8-2 behind Claude Passeau, who registered his fourth victory. Pittsburgh had to be satisfied with a split in its twin bill with the Philadelphia Phillies. The Pirates copped the opener 5-1 as Rip Sewell, returning to ac tion for the first time since his collapse on May 5, held the Phils to four safeties. A seven run seventh inning won the fi nale for the Phils 10-3. Athletics Cut Newsom Adrift .PHILADELPmA, June 3 (& The Philadelphia Athletics gave their leading pitcher Bobo New som an unconditional release to day at his own request The 37-year-old hurler, who has won three and lost five this season, denied he is bound for the Mexican league, declaring he "hopes to have better luck with another club."

Salem Still Hangs Tough By Th Associated Prs With Salem still hanging onto their newly acquired Western International league lead, Spo kane, Wenatchee and Tacoma ar nudging each other up and down for the runner-up position. With the Indians' weekly scr ies against the trailing Athletics from Victoria neatly in the bag, they have just moved up into the second spot. But the coming week's games with the Senators playing Victoria, even on the Canadians' home diamond, will undoubtedly shove Salem so far ahead no one will be able to catch up. At Salem Sunday, the Sena tors split a doubleheader with Vancouver, 6-2 and 2-6, which made for even play except that Salem won the series, 6-2. At Tacoma. the fighting Tigers smashed the Yakima Stars in both Sunday games, 15-5, and 7-4. Tacoma played their third consecutive errorless game in the opener. The Tigers won the series 7 to 1. At Wenatchee, the Chiefs and the Bluejackets from Bremerton split the Sunday show, the Chiefs taking the first, 5-3, then drop ping the nightcap to the Tars, 4-10, the Bluejackets won the series, five to three.
