Brooklyn, due to its disastrous
' week-end against the last place
New York Giants, in which It
dropped three out of four games,
could easily drop the runner-up
spot to either Cincinnati a game
behind or Pittsburgh only two
back. The scredule favors lust
such an occurrence. While the
Dodgers are engaging the ad

Pittsburgh and Cincinnati will
be meeting the second division
sterners.
The Beds open the stretch

Pittsburgh takes on punchless

Schacht Back From Tour Of
Battle Zone Mad At Axis
By Jack Cuddy
United Press Staff Correspondent
New York, Sept. 22 (U.R) Al Schacht, baseball's prince who
Just returned from seven weeks
terranean war area, Is convinced
for some United Nations big-shot
bearing.
"Otherwise," he asked, "whyl
would they keep tryin' to knock
me off all the time I'm over
ttrffe?"
Because of this apparent mis
conception, many of Al's antics
were not acting during his busy
tour of troop concentrations and
hospitals at which he put on 140
shows. ,
Baseball's blithe spirit first
realized that the Axis had him
"taped" when he stepped off a
plane at Cantsnla, Sicily. A ser
geant rushed up to htm yelling
'It's a showl it s a showr
Schacht, delighted at the
chap's enthusiasm, replied,
That's right, rm here lor a
show." But the sergeant grabbed
Al's arm and pointed frantically
at an approaching Messer
schmldt. He shouted, "Hit the
dlrtl hit the dirt".
"I took one look at that plane,
and I hit the dirt like a guy
slldin' head first- into home
plate," Al said. "I hugged that
while that plane came roaring
and strafing over the field, witn
our ack-ack guns shooting back.
That was my baptism In Sicily.
Later on, I got sorta used to this
stuff; Id just shiver from the
hips up particularly In the
teeth."
The ; former major league
pitcher, with the aquiline nose,
became so Incensed ' at Nazi
planes one night In Blzerte, that
he might have gone right out
and thrown baseballs at them
If he hadn't been so cozy in a
handy culvert.
Those planes had Interrupted
his shower bath, and: "In two
shakes I'm running down the
hotel corridor, dripping-wet, try
ing to climb Into my uniform In
the dark. I tumble over some
luggage In the lobby; but I fin
ally get-outside and dive Into a
culvert I stayed there threo
hours Just fighting mad." -
