The Cardinals, stretching their lead in the National Leagues Eastern Division to three games, snapped out of an losing streak eight-gam- e Tuesday night with a victory over the Houston Astros. St. Louis, plagued by mental errors and poor fielding during its losing streak, has rebounded from adversity before. After dropping 12 of their first 13 games, the Cardinals went on a tear and finally took over first place on July 22 despite their horrendous start.

There was no pressure, we were just losing," Schoendienst said, relaxing after his clubs victo!u bit of evry. It was a erything. We werent playing good ball and we were playing good teams.

Seagren won the first Super-star- s event earlier this year, and held a substantial lead over the Boston Celtics' John Havlicek in divison one of the competition Tuesday. In division two, professional skier Ard Schenk has shown his versatility as an athlete by lerding the pack with Yvan Cournrer of the Montreal Canadiens 1.5 points behind. But the hockey star has completed his events with Schenk having two remaining today. Karl Schranz could possibly catch his colleague on the pro ski tour. Seagren wen $39,000 for his victory in February. The winners of divisions one and two meet next February in the 1874 Superstars final.
