"Cincinnati, Aug. 19 - Cards Hammer at Reds' Lead - The big-bat boys of the flying Cardinals came to town today seeking to hammer the edge off Cincinnati's 5 1/2 game lead as the ball clubs headed down the National League stretch. Here are (L to R) John Mize, first baseman; Don Padgett, catcher, and Enos Slaughter, right fielder. Mize, who took the batting lead from Morrie Arnovich of the Phillies a week ago, is now hitting .353."
