While It may never etxn them
citation from the Office of De
fense Transportation, the New
York Yankeei and Brooklyn
Dodgeri appear determined to
tave themselvef and the base
ball fans a lot of travel by keep
ing the 1942 World Series with
in range of a five-cent subway
ride.
Yesterday at Ebbets field, the
Dodgers went to bat In the ninth
Inning of a scoreless pitching
duel between their ace, Lefty
Larry French, and Rube Melton
of the Philadelphia Phils. They
loaded the bases on two singles
and a walk and sent dangerous
Dolph Carnllli to the plate.
Camllll, however, didn't lay
bat on the ball. He merely
waited out a walk which forced
the winning run across, giving
the Dodgers the verdict, 1-0.
Meanwhile, over In the Bronx,
the Yankees went to bat against
the Boston Red Sox with the
score tied in the last half of the
ninth. They also loaded the
bases 'with one away and
brought up Charlie (King Kong)
Keller.
Keller picked out a pitch he
liked, slammed it 420 feet Into
the right-center field bleachers
for his 18th homer of the year
and presented the Yankees with
an 8-4 triumph.
Cards Win Two
The Cards downed the Chi
cago Cubs, 0-4 and 8-3. John
Beazley registered his 13th
latching victory in the opener,
although he yielded 10 of the 11
bits and failed to finish.
"Double No-Hit" Johnny Van
Tr Meer tossed a three-hitter
at the Pittsburgh Pirates in s
night contest which the Cincin
nati Reds won, 3-0.
Earlier In the day, the Braves
knocked the New York Giants
loose from their hold on third
place by sweeping a double
header, 1-0 and 8-2.
Murray Franklin's two -run
single led the Detroit Tigers to
a 4-2 triumph In the first game
with Cleveland and Hal New
houser blanking the Tribe, 2-0,
on five hits in the second.
Elden Auker pitched the St.
Louis Browns to a fl-3 decision
over the Chicago White Sox.
A scheduled game between
Washington and Philadelphia

DORRIS PROTEST;
REPLAY ORDERED
The protest of the Klamath
Falls-Dorris game of July 25
filed by Allen (Red) Talbot,
manager and owner of the Dor-
rls, (Cal.) Lumberjacks, has been
upheld by Dom Provost of Ash
land, president of the Oregon-
California Baseball league, and
a replay of the disputed contest
has been ordered.
Provost, announcing his de
cision yesterday after making a
complete investigation of the
facts leading to the protest, said
he was notifying managers of
both clubs immediately. Date
of the game, he said, would be
left In the hands of the teams
Involved.
The league president ex
plained that It had been proved
beyond a reasonable doubt that
a ball hit by Paul Crapo, Klanv
ath outfielder, with two men on
base In the first Inning of the
game, had bounced over the
fenec.
The hit. Provost explained, as
set forth in Talbof s protest, was
allowed to go for a home run
Instead of a two-base hit con
trary to rule 41, section 3 of the
official baseball rules, which
provides that "A fair hit ball
that strikes the ground and
bounds Into a stand or over a
fence shall be a two-base hit."
The loop prexy stated he had
received a written statement
from Pete Lesmeister, president
of the Klamath Falls club, ad
mitting that the ball bounced
over the fence. Lesmeister, how
ever, claimed that the decision
had no bearing on the outcome
of the game, while Talbot, in
his protest, claimed It did, Pro
vost said.
Klamath Falls won the game.

Grid Interest
After War,
Stockton, Calif., Aug. 13. (P) Hale and hearty as his 80th
birthday approaches. Veteran Football Coach Amos Alonzo Stagg
believes the war will have but little effect on' the game, and
when It's over there will be an expansion in gridiron interest.
I don t think the war will
affect the quality of the teams
very much, especially at the
large universities," said the
white-haired College of Pacific
mentor who coached University
of Chicago teams through the
Spanish-American and World
wars.
"The big schools have to much
material In normal timet that
they never utilize all of it.
There It still plenty of it avail
able for good football teams."
And after the war,' Stagg said
in an interview, interest in foot
ball should pick up because to
many service men will have
played the game, perhapt for the
first time.
'There will always be a strong
inclination for outdoor life and
sports, and I have an idea that
if the war lasts a long time,
sports admission prices will go
down, which will not be bad
thing."
Stagg t 53rd football cam
paign this year will be tougher
than usual, for he will train his
Pacific squad without the help
of an assistant. Ralph Francis,
the second in command last
year, is now a lieutenant in the
army.
Pacific, always a tough little
team with a reputation for
knocking over the big fellows,
faces a schedule including Uni
versity of Washington and the
star-studded Navy Pre-Flight
school at Moraga.

the result is embarrassing the
top Los Angeles club.
Last night the Beavers lust
missed sweeping a doubleheader
from the Angels, who won the
seven-inning opener, 5-4, in the
final inning, but dropped a free-
hitting second game 6-4.
In the nightcap Portland
amassed 14 safeties to 11 hits
collected by the Angels.
Ad Liska dueled Ken Raffens
berger and Roy Davis, Angel
hurlers, in the first game, as
the Beavers played one of their
rare error-less games. The An
gels collected nine hits and the
Beavers seven. Portland won
on the previous night.
Sacramento, the second-place
club, climbed to within two and
one-half games of the Angels by
thumping Oakland for the sec
ond consecutive night, 8-3.
The third - place Seattle
Rainiers dropped a 10-inning
first-game of a doubleheader to
San Francisco, 6-4, but Carl
Fischer hurled the Rainiers to

after piece.
At Hollywood, Bill Thomas
yielded 10 hits but defeated his
former employers, the San Diego
Padres, 4-3.
