Series Records Fall
On Card Outburst
Boston, Oct. 11 (Pi Eddie Dyer can face his 46th birthday today
with the knowledge that his St. Louis Cardinals rate a solid chance
of scoring the sports upset of the year beating the powerhouse
Boston Red Sox in the World Series. All even in games after
their first four meetings with the American league champions
. the Cardinals now can tail back
on their southpaw aces, Howie
, Pollet and Harry Brecheen.
Different Story
Twenty four hours ago the
shoe was on the other foot and
Manager Joe Cronin of the Bos
tons had complete control of
the situation with Tex Hughson
primed to push the Redbirds to
the brink of elimination.
That was before the 20-hit
, barrage the Cards loosened
on big Tex and five succes
sors to send the "experts"
- digging into the record books.
They found that only one
team, the New York Giants in
' 1921, ever had collected 20
i hits in a World Scries game,
f Never before had two teams
pooled a total of 29 safe blows
J as happened yesterday in St.
' Louis' 12-3 rout of the Sox.
For today's fifth game and
last at Fenway Park, Dyer has
Pollet ready to go after four
, days rest
' Bosox Starter
Cronin passed out the word
i he will use cither Mickey Har
ris, a left handcr who lost to
Brecheen in the second game,
3-0, or Joe Dobson, a right hand
er from Durant, Oklahoma, who
won 13 and lost seven during
the regular season,
j, No matter who wins the
' Boston getaway game, Bre
cheen and Dave (Boo) Fcr
riss will hurl the sixth game
. at St. Louis Sunday. If it
goes seven, they will take
Monday off for selling tickets
and play the big one Tuesday.
; Although the 35,645 Fenway
customers won't agree, yester
;day's game in many ways was
one of the most interesting of a
series that had been dominated
by pitching.
Leading the parade of St.
' Louis hitters were Rookie
Catcher Joe Garagiola and
- the veterans Enos Slaughter
and Whiley Kurowski, each
' with four hits. Wally Moses
' of the losers also chipped in
with four, joining 22 previous
stars in the record books.
'. For the first time in the se
ries, the outficlding was spec
tacular. Throws to the plate
by Slaughter, Ted Williams and
Dom DiMaggio each caught a
base runner diving for home.
Terry Moore, favoring his swol
len left knee, made a tumbling
catch of a Rudy York drive in
the second that was a classic.
Leslie Has First
Civil War Add
Revenge came in a double
dose for Leslie junior high
school this week as their junior
varsity eleven rolled to a 12-8
win over Parrish Cardinals
Thursday afternoon on Olingcr
field as a follow-up to the var
sity triumph on Leslie field
Wednesday.
Only a small amount of dust
had settled on football togs
In the first quarter Thursday
mid Leslie Golds had two
touchdowns. Clark Ecker
snagged a pass from Ken
Lawrence In the first minute,
; good for 35 yards and six
points. Another Leslie end,
' Don Brcnnan, counted the
second Gold tally, with Ken
Lawrence on the pitching end
again.
Cardinals started the second
half with a touchdown drive.
Cordon Bacon look a 15-yard
pass. Halfback Dale Olson went
to the Leslie one-yard line on
an end sweep, and Tommy Blair
scored on a line plunge.

his retirement as mentor of the Webfoots. At first a disconcerting
wire report had it that Oliver planned to step out of coaching
ranks entirely. Then a later quote compromised, "1 suppose I
could be persuaded to lake another job."
wiivcr arrived on the University of Oregon campus with a
good coaching record behind him. He tutored a Southern
California junior college, and opponents were bowled over.
He moved over to the University or Arizona, the victory
string was impressive. Then Oregon a 23 games won 30
lost record in six years as head coach.
A Coaching Phi Hcla Kappa Too
Webfoots lose one of the foremost students of football in the
nation, lex Oliver knows the rounded game and most of the
angles. Some say that he doesn't possess the ability to get this
knowledge across to men under him. This factor was hammered
in minor student body uprisings to oust Oliver.
Last fall it was and your scribe Bull was unfortunately a
party in all major uproar for Oliver's resignation. A young
co-sports editor of the daily campus newspaper heard several
gripes around nooks and crannies. He decided to write a
seething sports column. The column was written, and sure
enuff, the campus was set boiling right in the middle of
Oliver's fifth year.
And the Pot Continued to Seclhc
Oliver called for a conference with the .spoi ls scribe. He ex
plained why he had to use a squad member as slick holder in the
Washington Stale grid tussle. He also told why he had to change
plays and defensive formations lo meet new conditions. The cap
tain of Oregon's football team came out with an affirmation of
faith in Coach Oliver, and the campus returned lo normal.
Memories of unjust actions by students such as the above
may have prompted Oliver's resignation. Whatever the rea
son, Oregon loses a football coach who is well-founded in the
game. As Oliver says, "this business gets in your blood and
you don't just cast it aside."

Grid Expert Says Army
By Harold Claassen
New York, Oct. ll'W) Army heads into Michigan today on
the prowl for Its 22nd consecutive football victory but will be
denied, in the opinion of this grid forecaster who is making his
1946 trip down the rocky road. Doc Blanchard's ailing leg didn't
enter into the thought process that brought about that conclusion.
But thu absence of two All
America tackles and a similarly
honored guard from the 1945
Army squad, which whipped
Michigan by a 28 to 7 score
after a torrid afternoon, did in
fluence the verdict.
