Hank's Big Bat Puts
Detroit Into Series
By HARMON W. NICHOLS
ST. LOUIS, Oct. 1 (UP) The
Detroit Tigers, famed for the
brilliance of their pitching, ride
toward a world series date with
the Chicago Cubs today on the
dark brown bat of Hank Green
burg the stick that made a
shambles of the St. Louis Browns.
The Cubs clinched the National
league pennant by defeating the
Pittsburgh Pirates Saturday.
The Tigers got good pitching,
too, in their pennant clinching,
6 to 3 victory over the Browns
on rain-soaked Sportsman's park
field yesterday. But it was Green
bcrg, the ex-army captain, who
put them "in" with a bases-loaded
homer in the ninth.
Into Bleachers
Nelson Potter had accepted the
strategy of Manager Luke Sewell
and purpossely passed Roger
(Doc) Cramer, not to get at
Greenberg, but to load the sacks
and have a play at any base. The
Biowns were leading, 3 to 2, and
were within two outs of victory.
Thirty seconds later Potter and
Ihe Brownies rued their strategy.
For big Hank parked one of Pot
ter's fast ones high into the left
field bleacher seats.
It was his 13th homer of the
year, but there wasn't anything
unlucky about it except for the
Browns and the poor Washington
Senators who had been sweating
it out for a week, hoping the
Tigers would falter in the stretch.
Climax
Asked in the. dressing room
what kind of ball Potter had
thrown him, Greenberg sidestep
ped the question nicely.
"It was a baseball big and
round," he said. "And I kinda
liked it."
The victory climaxed an uphill

given the Senators another
chance. Had the Browns won,
the second game, which was can
celled, undoubtedly would have
been played and the Tigers, with
terrific pressure weighing against
them, might have lost it too. That
would have made the finish an
exact tie between the Tigers and
Senators, necessitating a playoff
game today in Detroit.

Cards Win
In the National league, Eddie
Stanky of the Dodgers set a new
circuit mark for bases on balls
during a single season when he
coaxed his 148th walk out of Pit
cher Mulcahy as the Dodgers top
ped the Phils, 4 to 1. That sur
passed a previous mark of 147,
set by Jimmy Sheckard of the
Cubs in 1011.
The Giants beat the Braves at
Boston, 1 to 0, when Nap Reyes
got a homer in the 13th and the
second game ended in a 2-all
seven inning tie. The champion
Cubs made it a clean sweep in
their final seiies with Pittsburgh
winning 5 to 3, while the Cards
went 12 innings before beating
the Reds at Cincinali, 3 lo 2.
Underdogs Come
Up With Double
Wins in Playoff
By United Press
The tables were turned Sunday
in the Pacific Coast baseball lea
gue playoffs and the underdog
Scuttle and Sacramento teams
came up with clean sweeps of
doubleheaders against Portland
and San Francisco.
As a result, the three-game
leads that both the Beavers and
Seals enjoyed piior to Sunday's
games have been washed out and
both aggregations now are cling
ing to shaky one-game margins.
. The Hauliers saddled Portland
with a 7-4 defeat in the first
game and came back in night
cap behind the slants of left
hander Carl Fischer to register
a 4-2 victory. Sacramento used
.loe Wood, jr.. to handcuff the
Seals in the first contest and Guy
Fletcher made it two straight for
the surging Sacs with a 5-2 tri
umph. The semi-linal seiies resume
today in the same parks. The
winners of the best-out-of-seven
games will clash for the champ
ionship in a series expected to
hrgin near the end of the week.
Saciamenlo was held to five
hits by the combined hurlinu of
i Floyd Ehrman and Elmer Oiella
i i the opener, but they bunched
I three of them during an eighth

and brought them victory.

Ben Hogan Sets
New Record With
261 Portland Win
By JOHN W. DUNLAP
PORTLAND, Oct. 1 (UP)
Benny Hogan, the little golfing
wizard from Hcrshey, Pa., today
sougth new courses to conquer
after winning the Portland open
with a new all-time PGA tourna
ment record of 261 strokes. '
Hogan chopped 27 strokes off
par 288 for 72 holes, his four-day
total being two 'strokes better
than Byron Nelson's previous rec
ord of 263 in the Atlanta open
this year. Nelson, the national
champion from Toledo, O., could
do no better than trial Hogan
by 14 strokes, although his 275
at Portland would have won most
tournaments.
Hogan Collects
Hogan collected $2,666 in war
bonds and Nelson $1,866 of the
$14,333 in prize money.
Nelson's golfing partner, Har
old (Jug) McSpaden, of Sanford,
Me., shot a 277 for third place and
$1,333. He was 11 strokes under
par and the most consistent com
petitor, with 69, 00, 69 and 70.
Shoved back into four place
was defending champion Sammy
Snead, of Hotsprings, Va. He
was even with Nelson until the
closing rounds, when his sub-par
69 was only good enough to col
lect $1,66.
Bill Welch, of Spokane, nation
al public links tilleholder, won
the amteur's cup with 204.
Comeback
Hogan made a convincing come
back to the game he dominated in
peacetime. He outdrove most of
the field, and was sensational
sinking long putts for birdies ana
pars. His card showed 33 birdies
and 32 pars, and several eagles
were missed by inches.
Pvt. Bob Hamilton of Fori
Lewis, PGA champion in 1044,
shot a pair of 68s Saturday and
Sunday to end up with 282 for
fifth place, and Sgt. Jim Fcrrier,
the Australian champion fiom
San Francisco, was next with 284.
Jimmy Hines of Chicago was
seventh with 285; Chuck Cong
don of Tacoma eighth with 286;
George Schncitcr, Colorado
Springs and Ed Furgnl, Detroit,
lied for ninth with 290, and three
split Ihe 291 tenth bracket, Ky
Lafoon, Chicago, Leonard Dod
son, Kansas City, and Harry

competition, 20 - 6. Washington
State ran wild in the final frame

Caddy Receives $40
For Aiding Hogan
PORTLAND, Oct. 16 (UP)
Rod Slade, a 16-year-old Port-.,
land schoolboy, is proud of $40 'v
in his pocket today . but even
happier he had the good luck to
caddy for Ben Hogan, winner of
the Portland golf tournament.
Hogan took the- tall lad aside
in the dressing room after the
cheering died downj" shook his
hand and said, "We did it, didn't
we?" ';
That friendly handshake meant .
more to Rod than the $40 tip
from the generous Hogan. He's
been caddying four years but this
was his first "big-time" chore. He
confided Hogan always thinks
first of the caddy, buys him cokes
and chats about the game from v
hole lo hole.
