LOUIS, Sept. 27 U.R) The St. Louis Cardinals, grimly aware that basehits and not past performances will win tonight's game with the Chicago Cubs, hoped to shake off their batting slump against John Schmitz or Hank Borowy, who will be opposed op-posed by Howie Pollct. A Cardinal loss would result in! an exact tie between the Cards and Brooklyn Dodgers, and each will have two more games. The Dodgers are idle today, and will be one full game behind if St. St. Louis has won 13 and luet six to Chicago this year, and Pol-let Pol-let has won ohe and lost two against the Cubs. Borowy has won one and lost two against St. Louis, and Schmitz has a three-two record. Manager Eddie Dyer gave the Cards the day off yesterday as the schedule provided them with an open date. Indicative of the deadly seriousness seri-ousness with which Dyer was taking the Cubs was his concentration concen-tration on winning just two of the three-game series, assuring at least a tie even if the Dodgers win both games against Boston. "If we do that we'll take the pennant." Dyer claimed, reasoning' that the Cards then could beat: the Dodgers in the best-of-three j playoff.

Even Branch Rickey, the sage but conservative Dodger president, presi-dent, was impressed. For the first time since his early-season prediction pre-diction that the Dodgers didn't have much chance to beat out the Cardinals this year, he admitted that he had changed his mind. 'I wouldn't be surrpised if you boys win the pennant." he said in making a personal dressing room appearance to thank them for the $5,100 motorboat they had presented pre-sented him the day before.
