Br ALAN GOULD i
' SPORTSMAN'S -PARK, St
Louis, Oct 2 (AP) Led by
fleet young rookie .outfielder;
John "Pepper" Martin, who al
' most single-handed scattered the
spell of hi George Earnshaw's
pitching mastery, the ! St. Louis
Cardinals rode to triumph , oyer

, Hallahan, for the 1 s e c o n d
straight year, blanked the chamj
pions ; of the baseball universe
holding them to three singles and
winning by 2 to (Tin a sensation
al duel with Earn sh aw, who tamed
all but the ublguitous and rabbit
f od Martin.
"The triumph squared the world
series J at one victory apiece, as
the warring forces headed for
Philadelphia to resume! Monday
. battle that has suddenly become a
tossup again.
Brings Total Of )
Hit a. ITn tn Five .
Martin, a hitting sensauon irom
the outset, ran his total up to fire
hits In two days, scored both Car
dinal runs as a result of fast base
running and : gave Hallahan the
margin of Tictory that the gallant
southpaw protected ! in an exciting-finish
that saw ithe Athletics
stopped In the ninth inning-with
the bases full. - j J-.;'-. .. -
Although his change o pace
baffled them and silenced for the
most part! the big bats of Coch
rane, Simmons and Foxx through
out the game, Hallahants wildness
put him frequently In hot water.
His final jam was in 'the ninth
and wild Bill needed all his cour
age to pulL safely, through ft sit
uation that threatened to bust up
the ball game. He had turned
back his foes in.lhe fifth with the
bases full and one but as Earn
shaw hit into a double play.
Foxx walked at the start of the
ninth. Dykes also received a pass.
Hallahan's seventh free ticket of
the game, after Miller filed to Ha
fey. Dib Williams! young and
over-anxious to come through in
the pinch struck out as he lunged
for a bad ball and; then Connie
Mack sent Jim Moore up to hit
for Earnshaw."
Thought It Was
AH Over; Wrong I
There was a wild yell as Moore
also swung and missed the third
strike. The Cardinals and the
crowd thought the game was over.
Catcher Jimmy Wilson had pick
ed the ball up "f rom the dirt and
thrown to third base in a spirit of
triumph," but the As were kept
alert by their sideline captain,
Kddle Collins, and Moore raced
to first base safely, to fill the
bags. : : !jv
Wilson had overlooked the for
mality of throwing! his man out
at .first, since he had picked the
pitch up from the dirt. For the
next few moments all was chaos,
but Captain -Collins saved the sit
uation momentarily for the cham
pions and the umpires sent the
nsrdinaU he to their nositions.
Max Bishop came to bat with oprl
jortunity beckoning to mm, out
on his pop foul toward the field
boxes off the right field line Bet
tomley charged over, made a spec
tacular catch forthe final out and
half tumbled over the fence Into
the anna of spectators.
Hallahan had a world of stuff,
despite his wildness, striking out
eigne- of the world champions
making a total of 19 victims In
two days- but he needed tda in
vincible tn the plnchea X gain the
verdict over Earnshaw. ,
Kanuhaw Not Too li
Feeble Himself
Big George, who beat the Car
dinals twice last October and
blanked them for 22 consecutive
Innings, allowed only six hits and
struck out five. He had superb
control, but neither he nor his
teammates could' control the en
ergetic young; Mr. I Martin, who
went on a spree on the bases with
n exhibition that .made the great
Mickey Cochrane look a trifle
fnnltah - 'i '
Martin scored what proved to
be the decisive run in the second
Inning. With one out, he made a
two base hit out of a drive to left
field that Al Simmons juggled
Just long enough' for the fleet
youngster-to slide safely into the
middle bag. With Jimmy Wilson
at bat, Martin made a clean steal
of third, sliding into-the bag faced
toward Dykes, who wasjobliged
to leap high for Cochrane' poor
throw. The, peppery youngster
strolled home on Wilson's long fly
to Mule Haas In center.
Earnshaw held the rest of the
Cardinals in check until the sev
enth inning, which Martin opened
with a single- to- left field. Still
very much at large Martn stole
second easfly, Cochrane'a throw
being so far away from the mack
that Williams was unable to.xaake
a gesture at tagging tha runner.

Dental Society Moves to
'tluash Reports it is
Back of Critics
The Marlon-Polk-Yamhlll coun
ties dental society members vot
ed their confidence in Dr. Estill L.
Brunk for his work with the Mar
Ion county health department, at
their monthly meeting at the Mar
lon hotel last night. The rising
vote carried with but two of the
members remaining seated.
Reports allegedly from the den
tal society to the effect that the
dental activities of the county
health unit should be put on a
full time basis were considered a
criticism of Dr. Br unk's part-time
work with the unit. The society
members last night quelled this
sentiment as far as the organiza
tion is concerned by expressing
themselves as heartily , in accord
with Dr. Brounk's dental correc
tive services on part time basis
with the health department.
Dr. O. F. Willing, Portland
dentist, better known : as a na
tionally famous golfer delivered
the main address of the meeting.
He spoke variously of dental sub
jects, of his travels in foreign
countries : and of having played
golf with ! Bobby Jones.

corps' trip to me American Le
