Home Run Provides Victory
- LOS ANGELES (UII The
Dodgers, trying to make their
.third try a charm, called on side
wheeling Don Drysdale today in
Jin effort to win the National
league pennant and the right to
Tneet the Chicago White Sox in
J he World Series.
Now based here, after a lot Of
tolden years at Brooklyn, the
Dodgers were favored to break
the jinx which has seen them lose
.two previous playoffs. They got
off on the right foot Monday when
they beat the Milwaukee Braves,
3 2, in the first game at Milwau
kee. Drysdale, a strong-armed rir4
hander, usually is more effective
against Hie Braves than any other
cjub, although his season's record
thia year against Milwaukee is an
even 3-3.
So the Dodgers hope to close it
out today, and then fly to Chicago

The Dodgers still were hailing
catcher John Koseboro. whose
sixth inning home run in the dusk
at County Stadium in Milwaukee
Monday, turned out to be the de
ciding run, and pitcher Larry
Sherry.
Sherry came on in relief of
starter Danny McDevitt in the
second inning when the Braves
scored both their runs, and turned
back the Braves on four hits from
that point. He made Koseboro's
borne run stand up.
There was only a small crowd j
of 18.297 and tney sat tnrougn a
steady rain and mist, that delayed
the start for almost an hour.
The Dodgers got the jump in
the first inning when Charlie Ncal
singled, advanced to second and

Houk threw seven times and Gene

Old Story
Heard On
Cal Campus
SAN FRANCISCO 1 UPI "We
just couldn't hold "em."
This was murmured 28 years
ago by coach Nibs Price of Cali
fornia just after his Golden Bears
had been crushed by Southern
California, 74-0.
And after that season was over.
Price concentrated on basketball
fulltime with the alumni having
a hand in his decision. Even now
when he recalls that black day in
Los Angeles, the sharp-eyed little
coach repeats "we just couldn't
hold 'em."
Now that ph-ase is back again,
sifting through the Bears' locker
rooms and around the campus like
a dismal fog.
"We just couldn't hold 'em...
Iowa beat our brains out."
Which figures. The powerful
Hawkcycs. who had blasted Cali
fornia in the Rose Bowl, 38-12, last
January, did it again Saturday
amid friendlier Berkeley surround
ings, 42-12.
There was talk before the game
that California actually was
primed to stun the Hawks in this
one. The team, campus reporters
said, bubbled with, confidence.
And -California started fast, get
ting a touchdown before the game
was one minute old. It was a
smashirg defeat for a team that
now must face Texas, Notre
Dame and I'CLA in that order.
Did the Bears get the same
treatment which the Pittsburgh
Pirates received from the mighty
New York Yankees during the
1927 World Series? Veteran fans
recall how the Waner brothers
and other Pittsburgh stars
watched in awe from the stands
while Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig
hit one hall after another out of
Forbes Field during baiting prac
tice, legend says that the series
was lost right there.
Now it has hee.i inferred locally
that some of California's gridde-s
were sweeping up the stadium
last Friday when the Hawkeycs
burst in and began going through
practice. The cleanup gang, one
reporter writes, watched the team
which had handled them in the
Hose Bowl then got cleaned up
in turn on Saturday.
Coach Pete Elliott, who has
known unhappy days before dur
ing his previous two seasons at
Califo-nia. said:
"We are capable of much better
football and are not going to let
one game ruin our season." the
personable young coach declared.
