FXGEFOUK MEDTORD IIA1E TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, . OREGON, THURSDAY. OCTOBER T, IMS. BILL SOUTHWORTH IS SUCCESSFUL Walker Cooper Aids Brother In Tielng Series Rookie Brazle Today. By Jack Cuddy United Press Correspondent New York. Oct. 7 U,FS Bill y-The -Kid Southworth, gambling fearlessly ior world series gold and glory, completes today two of-the most dramatic, quick-succession fliers in base ball history, as ne senas jkookib Alpha Brazle to the mound. Southworth won against the odds In story-book fashion yes terday when he risked the griei stricken Cooper brothers as a battery to power his Cardinal . machine against the Yanks in the classic's second game. No one knew better than Southworth the chance he was taking when he permitted Mort and Walker Cooper to go out on the Yankee Stadium field before nearly 70,000 persons, just few hours after the death- of their father in Missouri. The percent age against Bllly-The-Kid was Increased by the fact that Pitch erMort was recovering from 4 cold in his shoulder and by the widespread belief that he was allergic to American league bats men who had humbled him on four previous occasions. Billy Confidant But Southworth, confident of his judgement of men, took the big gamble and won, as the Cards defeated New York, 4-3, to even the series. Today comes the ' other scenario-script venture when he sends to the hill Southpaw Brazle, a 29-year-old rookie with only a half-season of major league experience under hi cap, ' Thi is a greater gamble than when Southworth, in last year1 aeries with the Yanks, chose Rookie Johnny Beazley to pitch the second game. Beazley had been with the club a full season: he had won 21 and lost six for a percentage of .778, the best in the circuit. Beazley, now in serv ice, won that game and the final xlfth contest. Brazle, a willowy left-hander who lives at Cortez, Colo., gained Southworth'a confidence by his exceptional success since he shifted to the Cards from Sacra mento of the Pacific Coast league in mid-July. His sldearm "heavy sinker" enabled him to register eight victories against two defeats. - National league batsmen could do little with his Inker, except bounce it around the infield now and thenpro viding meat for speeds Slats Marion and Lou Klein.
