PAGE TWO 'FOR MOUND DUTY ''IN FOURTH GAME Lanier and Russo to Vi . Cards Favored to Win Crucial Game. St. Louis, Oct 0 (U.R) Bett ing odds in St. Louis tonight fa vored the St. Louis Cardinals to defeat the New York Yankees in the fourth game at Sports man s park tomorrow and even the world series at two games each. - , h; . James J. Carroll, St. Louis 'Betting commissioner, quoted ' the Cards as four to three favor ites behind Southpaw Max Lanier. To back the Yankees. you put up $10 to win $11. St. Louis, Oct. 8. (U.R) Two left handers, one trying to live up to his former brilliance and the other seeking revenge, were named tonight to pitch the fourth game of the 1943 World Series at bportsmans park to- morrow, Joe McCarthy, pilot o'f the front running New York Yan kees, felt so confident with two to one edge that he decided to gamble with Marlus Ugo Russo, who has been troubled with a sore arm for the last two seasons. Billy Southworth of the St. Louis Cardinals, irritable and desperate, nominated Max Lanier, who lost the opening game of the series at Yankee stadium through his takes. t own mis- The two managers were quite a contrast as they sent their teams through tuneup drills this afternoon. . ' McCarthy was smiling as his players went through a snappy hitting and fielding drill. South worth was fretting and nervous as he tried to smooth out the fielding and hitting ills which cost his club two of the three games played at Yankee stadium. Billy insisted his team was "all right and will prove It to morrow" but his actions belied his words. He criticized his players as they took their turns in the batting cage and tried to insuu me oia uarainai spiru back in his men as they went through fielding drill.

J Lanier, who developed slight fever after the teams arrived here last night for the remain ing games of the series, said he felt fine and was determined to make up for the opening game defeat. McCarthy decided " on Russo on a hunch, hoping that the fast sinker ball of the Yankee south paw would silence the Cardinals bats as effectively as ha did those of the Brooklyn Dodgers on an October afternoon three years ago when he hurled a four-hit victory over Freddy Fitzsimmons and Hugh Casey in the crucial third game of that series which the Yankees went on to win. McCarthy had little to lose for should Russo fail he will have a well-rested Spurgeon Chandler, the major league's leading pitcher in earned run average this year who defeated Lanier in the opener, for the fifth game. Southworth, knowing that now it was "door-die"- for the Redblrds, said he would come back with Morton Cooper, win ner of the second game, in the fifth contest. The Cardinals against Russo were made four to three favorites.

The - one-sided triumph stunned the biggest crowd in Michigan football history and was the most decisive scored by either team in the 12-game series dating back to 1887. Notre Dame ripped Michigan's vaunted line to shreds. With Angelo Bertelli doing the pass ing, it caught tne Wolverine sec ondary flatfooted and out of position repeatedly to make the rout complete. The Irish scored once in the first quarter! twice in the second and twice in a third period that added a "Zany" touch to the contest when the electric timer stretched the play to 23 minutes instead of the regulation 15. The fourth quarter then was cut to seven minutes. This Notre Dame team, ranked by veteran observers as among the greatest ever pro duced in the collegiate football capital, literally blasted Michi gan, out of the contest with its long-range striking' power and its explosive speed. Notre Dame s triumph wag a team affair, but in it two per formers stood out with unusual brilliance Bertelli for his great passing and shrewd direction and Creighton Miller for his sen sational running. Bertelli threw two touchdown passes, set up another with one of his aerial tosses, scored one marker and .kicked the points after each of the five touch downs. Miller scored twice, once on a dazzling 66-yard run and again after taking a 17-yard pass from Bertelli. The manner in which Notre Dame scored its five touchdowns was a perfect demonstration of its play througn-out the contest. TROJANS DEFEAT ST,WS,13-0 Los Angeles, Oct. 9 U.R) Stopping the running and pass ing of all-American Bruce Smith, the University of Southern Cal ifornia Trojans won their third straight game today with a 13 to 0 win over St. Mary's Navy Pre-flight before 30,000 fans in Memorial coliseum, . Former' Mlnnesota all-Amer lean Smith, who joined the navy team the first of the week, was harried and rushed by the heavy USC line which forced him to throw hurriedly for a succession of incompleted and Intercepted tosses.

California went Into the game as a 20 to 1 favorite, despite Pacific's wins over the Alameda Coast Guard, St. Mary's Navy Pre-flight and UCLA. But-the Bears were scared to death of Podesto's passing arm and showed their alarm immediately after the' opening kickoff when they scrambled back to stop aerial thrusts and let the lanky Podesto run through them on the ground.

Medford high's Black Tornado will go Into the "big game" with Klamath Falls at Klamath next Friday night with an undefeated record but with a tie marring its escutcheon. The tie was fought at Eureka, Calif., Saturday afternoon, when Coach Lorne Arnold's eleven battled the Loggers to a 6 to 6 deadlock to snap its string of two straight victories.

Frank Massero, Eureka's "one man passing and running at tack," scored for the Loggers in the third quarter after he had tossed an aerial that took the ball to the Tornado 10-yard line. Eureka's extra point also failed. Medford. battling to go Into the Klamath game with an un beaten and untied slate, just missed a touchdown when they lost the i ball on downs on the three-inch line as the game ended. Once before, in the third heat, the Tigers drove to the Eureka eight-yard stripe, only to lose the ball on downs. . The game was featured by Medford's long power drives which, through lack of goal-line punch and fumbles, failed to pay off, and Massero's many passes.
