Indians Given Tough Drills For Next Tilt Retdsport Team Dated Htrt Friday; Dadi Will Watch Locals Perform When the Roseburg High In dians ran through a series ol new offensive tricki yesterday, they had three reasons in mind (or 'he spirited fashion In which they were performing in the rain. First, the high school varsity boys are eager to get back In the win column ny downing mis rn day night's opponents, the Reeds port Braves. Second, the squad will be per formlne or special guests. Each member of the varsity and Junior varsity squad will nave nis lam er seated on a bench on Flnlay lipid, as guests of the players. And third, not even the so-called regulars are certain of a start ing spot In Friday night's lineup, with Coach Cece Sherwixjd con tinuing to Juggle the first and second squads around during scrimmage sessions. New Plays Devised Sherwood promises something new In the way of offensive per formance for the Reed sport game. New plays, designed espe cially to daale the Braves will provide local fans with their first glimpse of a winning team In ac tion. Individual players aren't ex actlv over-conlident, but team spirit Indicates the Indians are going all out for a win this Fri day. In case Coach Sherwood and his assistants have some unlooked-for trouble firing up the In dian squad, aid may be given in the form of presence of the play ers' fathers, sealed on field benches near the players. Var sity and J-V players were given guest passes for their dad today, in celebration of the high school "Fathers' Night." Glenn Scofleld, Bill Wagner and "Diz" Burnette crashed the first string line in last night's scrimmage, turning In creditable performances at tackle, guard and center, respectively. Barry Kenny, senior transfer from Glendale, was outstanding In the halfback position usually filled by Bob Scott. Papooses Given Icrimmaae The Junior high school Pa pooses, making up for experience lost when Collage Grove canceled their Saturday appointment here, scrimmaged against a rugged Sutherlln eighth and ninth grade team yesterday In a session that lasted well over an hour. Coaches Hod Turner and Frank Purdy, assisted by Eddie Wyatt, ran the Papooses through a num ber of oflenslve and defensive tactics, substituting freely to give every boy a chance to play. Sutherlln, another T-formatlon team, coached by Orrin Hills, firovlded stiff opposition for the ocal boys and several times sent their backs through lor long gains. Coaches of both teams were on the field pointing nut errors and explaining tactics to be used un der game conditions.

(API Don Newcombe iml.ti that wasn't a "fat" 2-0 pitch ha served up to Tommy Henrich in the ninth inning of yesterday's opening world series game. "It was a low curve," Brooklyn's huge Negro righthander said in the dressing room later, "It was a good pitch.

(Happy I Chandler to the $0,000ayear Job as high commissioner of baseball when his seven-year term expires April 24. 1951. Chandler at one time was un der heavy fire, but baseball men here for the world series say that the following factors weigh heav ily in his behalf: 1 Baseball under Chandler has prospered as never before, with annual major league attendances of 20,000,000 virtually double former averages. 2 The players' pension fund, with its stabilizing influence on baseball, was started under Chandler. 3 Under Chandler, radio rev enue from the world series has never been less than $150,000; un der Judge K.

Whatever It was, Henrich took a keen liking to the offering. He caught it on the plump part of tils hat and nailed it Into the low er right field stands. That was the margin of the New York Yankees' 10 victory over the Dodgers In the first game of the 46th annual fall base ball classic. "It was a fast ball or a slider," said the Yankees' old reliable, over in the Yankees' Jltterbug ging quarters. "I watched It all the way." Until Henrich's booming blast that shook 66.224 enthralled pa trons from their seats it was a duel of pitching masters such as few previous series afforded. "If that one pitch had been high instead of low," moaned Brook lyn's white-haired tactician, Rurt Shotton, "we'd be out there yet." "Toughest Break" Jim Turner, the one time pitch ing milkman, who now is a Yankee coach, said Reynolds hardly made a bad pitch all after noon In carving his two-hit shut out. "There was only one well hit ball and that was the 3 -and -2 pilch which Jackie Robinson made PiMagglo run for In the sixth," Turner said. Shotton called Joe DIMaggio's stab of Robinson's screaming blow Brooklyn's "toughest break." Except for a perfect fielding play it would have meant a cer lain run. It would have been a home run In Brooklyn's Ebbets field. "Nobody In the National league ever plays me that deep," Robin son moaned. Robinson put In a beef about Cal Hubbard's umpiring behind the plate. "I ve never seen such strike called." complained the Brook lyn second baseman. "Why. hi actually called a pltchout a strike.'' Joe Page Gets Rest The Yankee who seemed to get the greatest satisfaction from Reynolds' triumph was relifcr Joe Page, who has been called in to rescue the righthander In 20 of his .11 starts this year. While the throng kept waiting for Reynolds to weaken, as he'd done in every previous start ex cept four, Page Just sat In the bullpen and watched admlringlv. He said he didn't put on a glove. "I don't think I'd have gone out there If they'd called me the way that guy was blowing them down,". Page commented.

Sure Allle Reynolds shut out the Dodgers yesterday with two tills but he might have been pitch ing yet if "Old Reliable" hadn't socked that ninth-Inning homer for the 1 0 edge. Henrich's Hex over Flatbush started exactly eight years ago yesterday Oct. 5. 1911. Those who saw It never will forget the Sunday afternoon at Kbbets field when Hugh Casey's third strike for the last out of a Brooklyn victory rolled past Catcher Mickey Owen. The Yanks went on to score four runs and take the ball game. Who was the hitter that Casey struck out? Naturally It was Hen rich. the Dodger hex. The very next afternoon when the Yanks applied the knockout blow it was Henrich's fifth-Inning homer off Whit Wyatt that put the lock on the game. Six years later in 1947 the Yanks and Dodgers met again. Once again Henrich was in the Yank lineup, making things mis erable for Burt Shoiton. Tom was a top New York slugger with a .323 series average that included a leadoff homer in the fifth inn ing of the second game against Vic Lombardi. The Yanks won that one 10 3. Now it's Henrich again, crush ing Don Neweombe's shutout bid with a leadoff clout into "he right field seats in the last of the ninin, to win yesterday's opening game.

(.V) Things are getting really tough In a football way at the Univer sity of Washington. When Coch Howie Odell started to scrimmage his "first" team against Oregon State for mations yesterday, he found him self in the sad situation of hav ing to recruit linemen to fill out the "OSC Varsity" squad. All the regular members of the knothead backfield have mov ed up to the varsity squad in the wake of the havoc wreaked by successive weekend encounters with Minnesota and Notre Dame. Fullback Hank Tiedemann Is still a hospital tenant, Hugh Mc Elhennv had a date with a bone specialist, quarterback Don Hen rich showed up on the sidelines and tossed his first ball since the Notre Dame fracas, and Halfback Roland Kirkbv still isn't able to don pads for the rough stuff. Only Don Coryell, a defensive halfback, returned from the in jured list and he took things easy with a bunged up lg. All In all, it wasn't a picture to bring joy to the hearts of Washington fans. Not when they remembered that Oregon State smashed Utah, 27-7, a week after Washington eked out a last min ute 14-7 verdict. Washington and Oregon State tangle here Saturday. CORVALLIS, Ore.. Oct. 6 t.Pl Two of Oregon State's inlured football varsity will be back on deck in time for Saturday's tiff with the University of Washing ton Huskies. Coach Kep Taylor said both End Rudy Ruppe and Quarter back Ralph Carr, sidelined dur ing the California game last week, are likely starters against the Huskies. Dick Vaillancour, defensive halfback who also missed the Bear struggle, worked out yes terday and will see action. But Don Mast, veteran linehacker. still Is too ill to be counted on for service. PULLMAN, Oct. 6 (.V) loach Phil Sarboe will have Washington State college ready for Oregon come hail or high water. The Cougars scrimmaged yes terday in a driving hail storm. Tuesday they worked out in a sousing rain. One Tackle, Landy James, was counted out of the Saturday clash, but another, Jerry Hough ton, is expected back in top shape after shaklne several hurts. James was Injured In the South ern lalilornia game last Satur day. MOSCOW. Idaho. Oct. 6 tP) Faced with an idle weekend. Coach Dixie Howell called off the daily scrimmage for his Idaho vandals yesterday rather than chance possible injuries on a nem made sloppy by rain, hail and snow. Howell moved his squad Inside the Idaho fieldhouse and ran them through a sharp passing drill In preparation for the Wash ington State college clash a week from Saturday.

The outcome of their tough game at Palo Alto no doubt will tab the winner as one of the three clubs most likely to end up with the title late next month. The other two strong contenders at this time are Southern Cali fornia and California. Off their three games to date, U.C.L.A. rates the nod over Stan ford. The Bruins have crushed Oregon State, Iowa and favored Oregon In succession. Stanford was badly outclassed by Michi gan, 7-27, butrhow many teams are beating Michigan these days? Alicnigan ground Stanford into the turf with a mixed assortment of plays off the single wing. Coach Henry Ked zanders uses a var iation of the wing attack at U.C. L.A. The U.CX.A. punch appears far lesi effective than Michigan's. Stanford is back in its own class this lime. We like Stanford to bounce back. Southern California gets Its stif fest test thus far against the in vading Ohio State Buckeyes. Jeff Cravath's big Trojan team was the pie-season conference fevor ite. A win over formidable Ohio State would cinch the role. Truman Asks Demo Chief To Rally O. K. For Olds WASHINGTON, Oct. 6 . President Truman said today that he had asked Democratic Chairman William M. Boyle Jr. to stir up support among state leaders for confirmation of La land Olds on the Federal Power commission. He told a news conference that this was a very proper thing to do.

Newcombe Weeps Over Pitch That Lost For Dodgers Bv TED SMITS NEW YORK, Oct. 6. .P Don Newcombe, a pitcher who came close to world series immortali ty, sagged down his 235 pounds in the Dodgers' dressing room yesterday afternoon and pressed his resin-stained finger and thumb against the bridge of his nose to hold back the tears. "Reynolds pitched a helluva hall game," he said in a voice so low it could scarcely be heard. The Brooklyn Dodger dressing room was deadly quiet. Jackie Robinson, standing closa to the despondent Newcombe, joined In praising Yankee Allle Reynolds. "You can't get runs when you face pitching like that," said Jackie. Newcombe whispered that It was a curve that Tommy Hen rich belted for the decisive ninth inning home run "a curve ball, a good pitch." Newcombe said he didn't know that the world series record (or strikeouts was 13, set by Howard Ehmke in 1929, and that he was only two short of It. A few men came up and clap ped Newcombe on his bare shoul ders and said "nice going," "tough" and things like that. Most of them went away rapidly be cause Neweombe's sadness was the kind no one wanted to try to intrude on. "One pitch did It," said Man ager Burt Shotton. "Except for that, we'd still be out there."
