CUBS CELEBRATE WINNING OF NATIONAL PENNANT
WEDNESDAY. SEPTEMBER 21, 1932
GRIMM SELECTS
BUSH TO PITCH
OPENING GAME
Chicago. Sept. 21 Chicago's Cubs
today were "in." with little In the
way of serelous business to worry
them until a week from today
when they oppose the New York
Yankees In the opening game of
the world series and they inten
ded to get a little fun out of their
baseball.
As soon as Kikl Cuyler smashed
one of Steve Swetonic's curves lor
a triple with the bases loaded in
the seventh Inning of the first game
of yesterday's "crucial"' double
header, the veteran regulars had
earned a rest. They started taking
it in the second game, and they
don't have to go back to work un
til they have rested. Neither do
they have to rest if they don't want
to.
Manager Charlie Grimm almost
went right back to work in the
second game yesterday, although
he Jong hed planned to give Mnr
vnl Gudat a chance as soon as the
national league title was won.
"Now that this battle is over," he
said. "I could get a lot of fun out
of this game. I won't rest long."
He has definitely announced only
one item of his world series plans
that Guy Bush will pitch the
opening game at New York. This
has been common gossip ever since
tt looked as though the Cubs would
win the championship. His other
pitching selections depend on the
Outcome of that first game.
The clubhouse celebration after
the pennant winning triumph re
quired a little time to develop.
Billy Herman was the first player
to reach the dressing room. He
more an awed sort of smile. The
Test of the youngsters, with the ex
ception of Lonnle Warneke, the
sensational young righthander,
matched Herman's expression. The
older players just beamed until
Grimm, last to come In, appeared.
Then they yelled at Grimm, at
each other, and finally demanded
a speech from the manager. He
obliged with one word, "great," re
peated many times. President Wil
' liam L. Veeck, who on August 2,
deposed Rogers Hornsby as man
ager and appointed Grimm, con
gratulated each man, finishing up
with Grimm.
"Thanks, manager," Veeck said,
pumping Grimm's hand. "But. we
knew we could do it, didn't we?"
Wan..ke was little impressed, at
least outwardly. He grinned at
Cuyler and his only comment was,
'Well, we figured to do it."
Not a word of mention was ac
corded the Yankees. The Athletics

PHILLIES BATTLE
FOR PLACE IN
FIRST DIVISION
By Associated Press
Generally overlooked In the ex
citement attending the winning of
the National league pennant by
Chicago ha been the surprising
tight put up by Burt shotton's Phil
lies for a berth In the first division.
Sixth when the curtain went down
a year alio, Shotton's sluggers had
pounded their way Into fourth place
and right now are giving the Brook
lyn Dodgers the battle of their lives
lor third. The Dodgers pulled away
a little yesterday. Increasing their
lead to a game and a half by down
ing the Phillies, 3 to 1. but with four
games to go there still .is a possibil
ity third place will go to the Quaker
city crew.
If the Phils do turn tne trick, it
will be the first time the club has
finished that high since away back
in 1917, when Pat Moran piloted
them Into second place. Grover
Cleveland Alexander won 30 games
for the Phils that year.
All four of the Phils' remaining
games are with the New York Gi
ants, however, and the Giants arc
finishing the campaign with a flour
ish. Brooklyn has one tussle sched
uled with the Giants and three with
the Boston Braves.
Watson Clark, ace of the Brooklyn
staff, chalked up his 19th victory in
halting the Phils yesterday. He kept
eight hits widely scattered after the
first inning. Home runs by Joe
Stripp and Glenn Wright accounted
for all the Dodger runs off Holley,
Rhem and Collins.
The Giants, seeking sixth place,
plastered the Braves, 13 to 3. Mel
Ott led the assault on four Boston
hurlera with four hits, Including his
37th and 38th home runs, tying him
with Chuck Klein for the league lea
dership. St. Louis, with Tex Carleton pitch
ing five-hit ball, beat Cincinnati, 3
to 1, and the Cubs closed the race
proper with a 5 to 2 win over Pitts
burgh in the first game of a double
header. The crestfallen Corsairs
took the second, S to 0.
Monte Weaver further established
himself as one of the year's greatest
freshman pitchers as he set Boston
down with four hits and beat the
Red Sox 4 to 1.
Cleveland completed the day's ac
tivities in the American league by
beating St. Louis a couple, 5 to 2
and 11 to 2. Joe Vosmik cracked two
triples, a double and three singles
during the afternoon.

CORVALLIS NOT
SCHEDULED TO
PLAY SALEM HI
Unless the two teams can arrange
a date satisfactory to all parties
concerned, Corvallis and Salem high
school football teams will not meet
during the present season. White
the Benton county youths have no
place on the Salem schedule at the
present time, Don Coons, manager
for the Huntington crew Is still
hopeful that an agreement can be
reached. Salem and Corvallis are
natural football rivals and most of
their encounters have been strenu
ous affairs with neither side having
much of an advantage. Corvallis
handed the locals a nice beating
last fall on Bell field and an op
portunity to reciprocate Is all that
is asked for here.
Considerable change In the sched
ule as outlined earlier In the year
has been made, Coons says, the
dates In several Instances having
been rearranged. While a story ap
pearing in a Medford paper stated
a game between the southern Ore
gon squad and Coach Huntington's
team had been arranged for this
year, the contest is not likely to
take place, local authorities feeling
too much money was involved.
The correct schedule follows:
September 30 Alumni.
October 7 Silverton, here.
October IS Bend, there.
October 21 Albany, there.
October 28 Astoria, here.
November 4 Oregon City, there.
November 11 Eugene, here.
November 18 Tillamook, there.
November 24 Chemawa, here.

Bergdahl Lost To
Bruins for Season
Los Angeles, Sept. 21 (IPV The
a C. L. A. Bruins have lost Lenny
Bergdahl, their quarterback, for this
season. Now convalescing from an
operation on his right elbow, Berg
dahl said that Inasmuch as H waa
doubtful It he could play against 8t.
Mary's Armistice Day, he did not
want to waste a year of competition
for one or two games. The Bruins
trounced the Pomona Sagehens 37-0
in their first night drill last night.
JONES THROWN
BY BARRACKMAN
The only fall Henry Jones, wel
terweight champion, was able to
secure from Merwin Barrackman
during their engagement at the
armory Tuesday night was the first
one of the series of three and re
suited from the clamping on of
Boston crab. The bearman came
back to take the second and third
falls with a shoulder and arm bar
and a backward body slam.
John Simmons of Seattle and
Ralph Morlcy of Salt Lake City put
on an exceedingly fast exhibition,
coupled with a great amount of so
called rough stuff. The affair was
indecisive, each man taking a fall
during the hour's engagement.
