Cubs Take National League Flag

ly The Canadian Press

Things were anti-climatic for the National League champion Chi- cago Cubs yesterday as they closed out the season by downing Pirates 0~3 at Pittsburgh.

A small crowd of 3.751 shivering in the chill autumn sun watched the Cubs win their 00th game of the season. '

The Chicago champs w o took over the National League end in July and held it all the way against the surge of St. Louis Cardinals, nailed the pennant to their flagpole Saturday with an eight-hit 4-3 vic- tory over Pirates in the firs-t half of a double header.

Just for Rood measure. the Cribs glso took the darkness-shortened second game 5-0 in seven innings.
