COL RUPPERT ILL; GETS BIG THRILL NEW YORK, Oct. 7.-(APl-The man who built and owns the "Yankee menace," Col. Jacob Ruppert, gets hts biggest world series kick from the work of "those two youngsters, Hen rich and Gordon," as the New York American lrsuera close tn on their third straight world championship. Confined to his bed by Illness. Ruppert la following the series and the little world series by rsdlo. He nays he Is "interested In the little one too." The colonel owns both the principal, the Kansas City Blues and ihe Newark Bears. Ruppert Is glad to see the Yanks Wangle with the Cubs. "It makes for keener Interest when a team like the Cubs comes through. Instead of the old local rivalry we have a new Intersect lonal angle that's pulling In capacity crowds. And of course we can still set more records," By records the colonel means an other four-game sweep. Such a vtc tory would give the Yankees an al most unapproachable mark. Th-y won In straight games In 1937, U3fl and 1012. In the latter year against the Cubs. Canny l.oe. PORTLAND. Oct. 7. iff1, Scoring in every period.

The boys have been drlllfng faithfully, however, so let's call the turn about 20 to 0, favor of the locals. Grants Pass -Klamath Palls. Tou can't do anything here but pick the Pelicans, but Mr. Pickem has a hunch It will be close. 13 to 0. 80N8-Orcffon Frosh.

COURAGEOUS DEAN WALKS 'LAST MILE' TO LOSE - YET Once Great ' Pitcher Near Fame, Holds Diamond Murderers Then Came DiMaggio. " Br HENRY McLEMOFE (United Preaa Staff Correspondent.) CHICAGO, Oct. 7. (UP) Dizzy Dean ahuffled down baseball's "laat mile" yeeterday. From the sunshine that bathed the pitching mound at Wrlgley field he walked Into the shadows of the dugout, and on through the green door that leads to the showers. It Isn't a very big door; It Isn't cut very high. Because the shoulders of the men who pass through It always are weighted and ssgglng with dis appointment. Let it be said that Dizzy Dean walked it gloriously. Inside his heart he must have known that each atep he took led him away, perhaps be on hand for th home debut of ha loves so well. He didn't walk the "last mile alone. In spirit, the spectators of the second game of the world aeries between the Cubs and Yanks walked It with him. Ppr every step he took the customers, apreclatlve of his courage, thundered a salute. ' Because the men,1 women and chil dren had watched one of the great eat exhibitions of heart and head and competitive spirit In the history of baseball. Thrown against the Yankees, the murderers of baseball. Dean held them for seven Innings. Patiently, carefully, shrewdly and courageously. Inch by Inch, he snuffed the fuse of the Yankee bomb. The Lord knows what with I He didn't have anything but a change of pace. First he would throw a alow ball. Then he would throw a slower ball. Then he would throw one so lazy, so soft, so absolutely devoid of "stuff" thst a handwrit ing expert sitting In the stands could have read Ford Frlck'a character from hla signature on the ball. For seven Innings he lobbed It up there. Across thla corner. Then across that one. One time high, the next time low. 8ometimes Inside, sometimes outside They couldn't hit the "nothing" bsll. Then In the eighth, with his great est triumph Just around the cor ner, the remnant of the great right arm that used to swlnjr from his shoulder, gave out. With Crosetti up in the eighth. Dlz found himself without even a "nothlm" ball. h. scarcely could throw the ball to the Plato. Crosetti stepped Into one and knocked It Into the stands, scoring Hoag ahead of him. No quitter, Dlz came back, for the ninth. Thla time it was DiMaggio who set his sights on a aoft floater, chest high, and pounded It Into the iana rrom whence there Is no re turning. That finished Dlz. T FOOTBALL MEREST RIDES LA, SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 7.
