I Ik* New York Yankees squared the Worhl Series at three
>jai",'s ;,l’i,,<' ’ «*xplofliii(f for five runs in the very first inning
ami hanging on to triumph 5 1 behind tin- stout four-hit
hurling of outhpaw VVhitey Ford.
H.iek in Yankee Stadium after losing three straight at
unfriendly Ebbets Field, the Bronx Bombers wasted no
time in blasting young lefty Karl Spooner from the mound.
Spooner, who had pitched brilliant relief ball in the second
game, was coaxed for walks by Phil Rizzuto and Gil Mc
Dougal. Yogi Berra and Hank Bauer then produced run
scoring singles, and Bill (Moose) Showron topped things
off with an opposite-field home run to the right field
stands. T hat was the ball game, as Russ Meyer and Ed
Roebuck came in to step the Yankees cold the rest of the
way.
Ford Was Tough
I '<i<l walked four, hit l arl Furillo on the arm and uncorked
a wild pitch, but was extremely tough in the clutch. He
stria k out eight and was ablv assisted by the fine third
basing of (,d Mel )ougal.
It was the 27 year old Whitey’s second victory of the
1055 classic and he now holds a 3-1 record in five starts in
all series competition, 2-1 over the Dodgers.
A capacity crowd thronged the huge stadium and swelled
hie total attendance for this year's classic to 299,845 ptiid.
'I hr oppu-mg athletes will split a melon of $954,85,5.59. and
m- matter who cops the duke today, there will be steak on
the table this winter.
Records Falling
The excellent all around play of both clubs is evidenced
by the fact that both batting and fielding World Series
records have gone by the wayside this year. The Yanks and
Bums turned in a double play apiece to set a new record of
IS and Brooklyn set a team record by completing their tenth
twin killing. Jackie Robinson unassisted to Hodges. The
Dodger- -tirpassed their own National league homer mark
of eight and need one more to tie the all-time record of ten
set by New York at their expense in 1952.
I he bookies are in a quandry covering the wagers on
the seventh and deciding game with the odds switching to
6-5, take your cherce.
Ibis has been a southpaw series as portsiders have ac
counted for five of the six wins. Roger Craig of Brooklyn is
the sole right hander to receive credit for victory. It is the
same story tomorrow as veteran Tommy Byrne, who won
the second game, faces youthful Johnny Podres who took
the third game victory for Brooklyn.
Hard to Tell
It is difficult to predict a Dodger defeat, for the Brooks
came hack to take three straight at Kbbets field. Any man-1
agei who could go with a 24 year old rookie a year out of
the C lass B Piedmont league, as Alston did with Roger Craig
(5 4). and get away with it. deserves a great deal of credit.
Stdl. the Dodgers have failed so often, losing all seven
pre\ ions series, that one has no confidence in what they
might accomplish under pressure.
In fact. Joe DiMaggio, who (not discounting Marilyn)
was almost famous as a Yankee outfielder, has suggested
that the Dodgers suffer from a slight contraction of the
esophagus upon viewing any uniform with the letters
N Y across it in the World Series.
I here is little reason to switch now, therefore your re
porter will stick with the ^ ankees. although it appeared that
he was up that well-known tributary without sufficient
means of locomotion after this weekend’s Dodger victories.

Indian, Spartan
Intersectional
Draws Attention
By A-.iociatrd Pratt
Stanford’s Indians, already au
thors of on>' of the better upsets
of the young season, carry the
Pacific Coast conference football
torch into Big Ten territory this
week in the highlight game of
another full schedule.
The Indians, who bewildered
the Buckeyes of Ohio State with
a 6-0 victory on Saturday, fly
to Cast Cansing, Mich., to take
on surprising Michigan State in
the top intersectional tilt. The
Spartans put up a tough fight
before bowing to mighty Michi
gan, 14-7.
Three PCC flames Set
Three conference contests and
a pair of non-league outings
complete the weekend PCC slate.
UCLA’s Bruins, rebounding
sensationally from their defeat
by Maryland a week ago with a
55-0 pasting of woeful Washing
ton State, entertain Oregon State
Friday night at Los Angeles.
The Beavers had an open date
Saturday.
ISC, Washington Collide
Two unbeaen teams. Southern
California and Washington, col
lide at Seattle In the feature
game of the PCC card. The
Trojans, who opened with a pair
of conference triumphs, tamed
Texas, 19-7, in an intersectional
last week. The hungry Huskies,
surprise team of the loop, trim
med Oregon, 19-7 on the heels
of their Minnesota crusher.
The third PCC clash, despite
its early date, might decide last
place in the conference. Neither
Pennsylvania, nor W’ashington
State is going anywhere and the
looser at Berkeley is almost a
cinch for the cellar.
In non-conference billing, Ore
gon hosts Colorado of the Big
Seven at Kugene, and Idaho,
loser by 47-14 to Arizona, enter
tains independent College of the
Pacific, 27-13 winner over Cin
cinnati. at Moscow.
Opening Day
Turnout Less
PORTLAND UP—The Oregon
State Game commission reported
Monday that there were fewer
hunters in the field for the open
ing week end of deer season than
last year.
And fewer deer were shot, a
spokesman for the commission
said.
“A lot of hunters apparently
are waiting for the either-sex
season, and this is a good thing
-in that it eliminates the usual
opening week-end pressure,” said
John McKean, game division
chief of operations for the com
mission.
Dry conditions in the forests
and ranges as well as the full
moon are causing deer to feed
at night and bed down in the day
light hours, he said. This, with
fewer hunters in the field to stir
up the deer, was the reason for
the decline in the number of deer
bagged, he said.
He predicted that hunting
would improve as the moon dark
ens.
Recommended as best areas for
hunting were forest areas of
Lake, Harney, Grant, Wheeler,
Morrow and Crook counties.
The commission said that only
six small hunter-set fires were j
reported. These were extinguish- j
ed without serious damage.

Shaw and Ameche
Lead Redhot Colts
By the Associated Press
Led by a couple of yearling.*!,
the frisky Baltimore Colts are
kicking up their heels in the Na
tional Football league.
The youngsters, Alan Amec he
and George Shaw, have ac
counted for all the Baltimore
touchdowns in a surprising
season in which the Colts find
themselves in a three-way tie
for the lead in the N'FL’s West
ern Conference after whipping
Detroit, 28-13, over the week
end.
The Colts, like the Green Bay
Parkers and Cos Angeles
Hams, have 2-0 records, and
the Colts meet the Packers
Saturday night in the best
game on the N FI, card.
Green Bay kept pace by shel
lacking the Chicago Bears Sun
day, 24-3, while the Rams cut
it as close as humanly possible
with a 27-26 victory over Pitts
burgh, achieved on Les Richter’s
33-yard field goal just as the gun
sounded.
Washington, anohter surprise
package, leads the Eastern
Conference with a 2-0 mark
after its wildly-exciting 31-30
squeaker over Philadelphia
Saturday night. In other
games Sunday, Cleveland’s
powerful Browns snapped back
after an opening loss to crush
San Francisco, 38-S, and the
Chicago Cardinals upended
New York, 28-17.
/i. record crowd of 40.030
watched in awe at Baltimore as
the Colts manhandled the Lions.
After all, the team had won only
three games a year since coming
back into the league in 1953. And
those were the mighty Detroit
Lions, whom they’d never beaten.
But Ameche and Shaw were
not in the league during the past
two seasons, and apparently they
were too busy playing college
ball or studying to read about
the Lions’ prowess.
In any event, Ameche bowled
two yards through the Lion
line for one touchdown and
added another on a 52-yard
gallop.
When Ameche, nicknamed
"The Horse,” before he ever be
came a Colt, wasn’t running
through the Lions, Shaw was
passing over their heads. He hit
two touchdowns and the 28 points
the Colts accumulated so stimu
lated the defensive platoon that
they stopped Detroit cold in the
second halt.

NEW YORK Wt— Eddie Stanky,
fiery former St. Louis Cardinal

Cardinal pilot May 28, will suc
ceed Bill Rigney, promoted by
the Giants to manage the big
