OREGON, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 1, 1948 No. 99 THE Lemon Named To Hurl for Cleveland Today 1 New York, Oct. 1 U The Cleveland Indians, standing on - the brink ot glory, sent 20-game winner Bob Lemon against De- trait today to clinch at least a tie for the American league pennant. A victory would do it. The tribe ' -went into the tilt one and a half jjames ahcadvof the Idle Red Sox f?nd Yankees with three to go. A Detroit loss would make the . fcount two ahead with two to go. With that delectable thought in jj mind, young Mr. Lemon was set to oppose either VlrgU Trucks or Fred Hutchinson,, probably , Trucks,' at Municipal stadium. The Red Sox kept their scant hopes alive yesterday with a 7-3 victory over Washington at Bos 'ton, while the Yanks squeaked by the Athletics at. Philadelphia, 97. A blasting 15-hit attack carried ' Boston to triumph. Thirteen of the hits and all seven runs came in the five Innings as Lefty Mel Parnell racked up his 15th win of the year. Dom DIMaggio and Johnny Pesky set the pace with three hits each. The Sox scored twice in the second and five times In the fifth. .-ft. Bases Loaded : 4 The Yanks flirted with heart .failure in their finale at Philadel- - pha. For the second day in a row, the bases were loaded with A's when the game ended. The . Yanks had started well, with two runs in the first, four in the sec ond, two in the fourth and one in -the fifth. But trailing 9-3 after : the seventh, Philadelphia scored three runs in the eighth and then one in the ninth before the Yanks choked off the harrowing rally. Eddie Lopat won the game on the mound for the Yanks, but first Spec Shea and then Vic Raschi had to come In during the ninth. Philarielnhia used four pitchers, with starter Joe Cole man getting charged with the de . feat although he never got past he second inning. . ;..

The regular Saturday morning games were shifted to allow the boys to ac company their lathers deer hunt ing. The Bearkittens counted once in the first half on a 28-yard pass and run on the Thompson to Sig mund combination but the con version failed. The same two backs carled the ball the length of the field in the third quarter to counter again and the conversion was good. Allen came back strong late in that period and the first of the fourth to march the length of the field with Gilpin turning in a long run and a pass to Gaines eating up another big chunk of yardage. Gilpin bucked over for the score. A penalty nullified a successful conversion attempt. The 8th graders tallied again in the lest minutes when Russell ran over from the five yard line. The final score was 20-6 for the Bear kittens. ..... The St. Francis-Kenwood affair was a bitterly fought contest, much closer than the 13-0 score indicates. The Saints scored first in the second quarter when Larry Wade went over untouched from the 15-yard line on a well execut ed reverse play. The conversion failed. In the second half the Wade brothers set up the second touchdown when quarterback Larry passed to end Fred for a 30-yard gain down to the two-foot line. Boardman, easily the out standing running back so far in league play, bucked it over for the score and repeated for the con version The teams do not play again STOVBi-LffLANCK SATURDAY for the job GTOVER-L&ANC wc MAN'S STOflf WILLIAMS but them it was onlv one room" NOW IT'S THIRTY ROOMS AND I GUESS THE BULL OF THE WOODS DON'T WANT THAT UFF STARTED AC4NJ until Monday night, October 11, when the third round of games will be played. This is to be a benefit affair with the ABC club sponsoring, assisted by the vari ous service clubs. The game will be played under the lights on Bruin field with a small admission charge for adults and students not holding season tickets. The proceeds will be used to buy addi tional equipment for the teams. An advanced ticket sale will get under way next week with the various organizations and schools participating. An effort will be made to sell tickets to people whether they will be able to at tend or not. The building pro gram in the schools has drawn much favorable comment about town and booster club leaders feel that this will give those who are interested a chance to assist. It will also give the young players a chance to perform in front of a larger crowd than they are used to and also give the bands and drill groups from the schools a chance to perform for the public.

The Hershey, Pa., hotshot, top money-winner in American golf, turned in a five-under-par 67. for the first 18 holes yesterday to tie up with Gene Webb, Springfield, Mo., and Freddie Haas of New Orleans. Playing over the well-baked course with a deadly driver and a putter to match, Hogan carded a 34 on the way out and came back with a three-under-par 33. Webb, a tall blond 28-year-old pro, turned In a 34 on the first nine and 33 on the return strip to match Hogan. Haas, an estab lished contender for big-time hon ors, went out in a sizzling 32 and dropped to a 35 coming in. Webb, whose putter must have been radar-guided, was ecstatic after the round. "Today i couia do no wrong," he chortled. "This is the way I've always wantea to Dlav." The rolling Raleigh fairways were nicknamed "Hogan's alley because blastin's Benny set the open record on the course with a 72-hole total of 261 in 1945 and then led the American Ryder cup team to a decisive win over the British on the same ground in 1947. Ed (Porky) Oliver, of Seattle, was in fourth place today, trail ing the leaders with a 68. Johnny Palmer, former air force gunner from Badin, N. C, and Al Zim merman of Portland were behind Oliver by a single stroke. Exceptional You'll find them everyday at City Drug. Thrifty buys in the things you need. Known brands.

Petersen (United Vrtma SpwU Editor) New York, Oct. 1 (IPi Man for man, pitch for pitch, hit for hit it all adds uo to the Cleveland In dians in the 1948 world series- providing they win the American league pennant. But that's on paper only; things might, and could be, different on the diamond. Particularly with a guy like Billy Southworth guid ing the destinies of the Boston Braves. . This, the year of 1948, will be his greatest in baseball. Never has a manager gone so far with so little. Whether he can go still further remains to be seen, but the odds are against it. For there Is no department In which the Braves measure up to their probable world series rivals, the Cleveland Indians. Class is the Indian's stock in trade; South worth is the Braves. Hu Pitchers And a manager may not be enoueh to win the series. True, he has a couple of pros Pitchers Johnny Sain and Warren Spahn in oarticular but after them he has only a couple of ball players and a misfit collection oi nas boons and retreads. Still they were good enough to win the National league pen' nant and an old baseball saying goes that Southworth never should be sold short. But it would be even more of a miracle if he came out on the front end of the series, for it dosen't appear that it has what it takes to beat a collection of stars such as Lou Roudreau. Joe Gordon, Bobby Fel ler, Ken Keltner, Bob Lemon and uene tsearaen.

' It doesn't look like he can do it again, particularly with hard hitting Jeff Heath out with a broken ankle, but south worth has overcome bigger handi caps before and never gives in an men. However, neither does Bou- dreau. The Indians' manuger, more than anyone else, gives his team a decided edge in manpow er, tie is an miieiu in himself. It's a dead heat at third base even though Bob Elliott, the Na tional leagues most valuable player last year, has had an off year. But he still hits a long ball, as does Keltner. So for that spot the manpower is equal. The sit uation is pretty much the same at first base, with no standout on either club. Southworth uses ag ing Frank McCormick, past his prime, when left handers Ditch against the Braves and Earl Tor geson, a far cry from his 1947 rookie year, against right hand ers. With Walt Judnich, who also piays tne outtieid, a doubtful starter because of Inlurv. hie Ed Robinson figures to hold down first base for the Indians. Nelth er of the three can be classed as i star. In Infield reserves the two clubs appear equal, so it all adds up to that second base combination of Boudreau and Gordon. They give the Indians a big infield edge over their world series opponents.
