Sportsman's Park, St. Louis, Oct. 7. (U.R) The St. Louis Car dinals needed only 12 pitches to square the 1944 world series at two games each today, as slug ging Stan Musial, a scries bust for three years, belted a two-run homer that led to a 5 to 1 win over the St, Louis Browns. The game was only eight min utes old when Musial, the third Cardinal batter, stepped Into the box and teed off on the first pitch to send the ball screaming to the roof of the right field pavilion, 300 feet from the plate, and as Musial circled the bases he sent Hopp home with the run that proved the winning margin. That game-w Inning blow, which finally proved Musial's mettle when the big blue chips were down, was the 12th pitch that Sig Jakucki, the Brownie starter, sent up to the plate. He had fanned leadoff man Llt- whiler on five tosses, and It look ed as if he might make good his boast that he'd beat the Cardi nals. The game had gone eight min utes as Jakucki took his first look at Musial and cut loose with i his pet pitch a slider. Musial powdered it over the pavilion, and that was the ball game. For the rest of the afternoon the Browns battled vainly to overtake the eight-minute lead. But the Cards adedd two more In the third and one In the sixth, while the best the Browns could do was push one over In the eighth. The final Cardinal run came in the sixth when Sanders led off with a shot to center and, after Kurowski fanned, went home on Marion's double. The Browns got their only run In the eighth when Gene Moore walked and went all the way to third ns Vern Stephens singled against the right field screen. Laabs hit into a double play that erased Stephens, but Moore scored in the confusion.

LUCKY TOGET 12-12 TIE Ashland, Oct. 7 Klamath Falls' Pelican grldders suffered a surprise In their conference u ,u j. r- here last night when the under dog locals held them to a 12-12 tie. Although Klamath had suf fered a 33-0 Inuncing in their season's opener against Grant hiyli of Portland, they had bounced back to whack Salem 18-0 the next week and were be lievi'd well on the road to their 1943 form when they invaded Ash ind. The Pelicans got their first marker in the opening quarter when Rcedy's punt was blocked on 'he Ashland 48 and recover ed on their 28, Biehn, Pelican fullback, scoring shortly after ward. Ea:'y In the second quarter Perkins, Pelican quarterback, passed 30 yards from midficld to Halfbick Berry who sco ted for a to' rhdown. Near the end of the lirst half Ashland started an offensive on their own 32. A pass, Reedy to Merriman, took the t all to the 40 from where the Grizzlies used everything in the book to advance to the Klamath 8-yard stri; e. A pass, Jardio to bamtiplson in the end zone was good for the touch- do v n. The third quarter was a see saw a'lair with no scn-ing. Play centered in Ashland's cri'lory until midway of the fourMi quarter when Seaver in tercepted a Pelican pass on his own 17 and scampered 12 yards wheri he was hauled down. Sam uclson's fumble on Klamath's thret was recovered by the in curs who immediately kicked. The boot was poor, however, and it was again Ashland's ball on the Klamath Tl yard lin. Janriio again flipped a pass to liomuMson to knot the rc 'e. The Grizzlies were on the Klairmth 10-yar? line as the gun endd the fracas.
