Tuesday. Ocf. 2, 1943
take the all-Important opening
game.
Borowy and Newhouser were
the pennant clinching boys of
1945. Fordham Hank, the sec
ond man in history to split 20
or more victories between the
two Major leagues in a single
season, drew the opening hurling
assignment from Manager Char
ley Grimm for he knows the De
troit Tigers, and what's more,
knows how to beat them.
O'Neill Decided
Grimm decided yesterday that
Borowy would be his man, after
toying with the idea of starting
Henry Wyse, a fast curve artist,
or Claude Passeau, a veteran of
the pitching wars.
There never was any question
about Steve O'Neill's starter. It's
been Lefty Hal oil the way
and he cemented it when he
turned back the St. Louis
Browns Sunday in the game
whlcli gave the Tigers the Ameri
can league championship.
That was his 25th victory
making him the' wlnnlngcst
pitcher in the Majors. It wasn't
quite up to his 1944 standard
when he won 29, but It was
enough to retain the honor of
being the top winner In the Ma
jors.
Cubs Slate Workout
The Cubs, who arrived late
last night, were scheduled for a
workout at Briggs Stadium this
afternoon, while the Tigers were
due to go through a fielding and
batting drill at noon. The rain of
yesterday promised to subside
to permit the clubs to work out
and clear weather was promised
for the opener tomorrow.
Like hotel rooms, tickets were
out of this world. The overflow
crowd for this first peacetime
series was being taken care of In
two "floating" hotels. They
tied up two Great Lakes steam
ers, which usually ply between
here and Cleveland, so some of
the too many people would have
a place to sleep.
Tickets Sold
It even will be worse for the
ball game tomorrow. Ticketa
have been sold out for days but
some persons still figured that
somehow, somewhere they would
find friends who could fix them
up.
One thing was sure with the
scries being played at Briggs
stadium and wrigley field, an all
time high for world series re
ceipts appeared certain. If they
oxceed the previous high of 1935
when -the Tigers defeated the
Cuba four games to two in the
only series they have won from
the Windy City boys in three
meetings, It will mean that each
player on the triumphant side
will receive more than $8,644.-
78. That was the swag that the
Tigers received when they de
feated the Cubs that year.
With Briggs stadium and Wrig
ley field handling a capacity of
approximately 60,000 paid It ap
peared a sure bet that the players
pool, formed from the first four
games only, would exceed any
amount the follows who have
been in the blue-ribbon classics
of the game ever have divided
before.

JOE LOUIS GETS
y RELEASE;
10 SEE SERIES
New York, Oct. 2 (U.R)
Heavyweight Champion Joe
Louis dapper In a civilian gray
suit and mottled red necktie,
boarded a train for his Detroit
home and the World Scries to
day, predicting that his beloved
Tigeis would beat the Cubs four
games to two.
Ex-sergeant Joe, who received
his honorable discharge from the
army at nearby Camp Shanks
yesterday, declared with gusto.
"Ah II see every game of that
series at Detroit and Chicago,
too."
The champ has plans that will
occupy his time until new
year's. After the aeries, he said,
he will return to New York for
some business huddles with
Miko Jacobs. Then he will go
to Los Angeles, where he in
tends to relax and do prelimin
ary conditioning until January
He admitted, with a chuckle,
that most of this preliminary
work would be confined to golf
"Muh favorite form of train
In." ,
In January, he will return to
New York and confer with
Jacobs about the. "big fight" in
June his second title defense
against Billy Conn who was re
cently discharged from the
army. They will decide whether
Joe will have any tune-up bouts,
whether he will go on an ex
hibition tour or whether he will
merely concentrate on prepara
tions to meet the Pittsburgh
Irishman who put up such a
great fight In June 1941.

Portland, Seals Beaten To
Tie Up Coast Loop Playoff
(By United Press)
The Sacramento Solons and
the Seattle Rainiers, as though
spurred by a common determina
tion, defeated San Francisco and
Portland, respectively. Monday
night and left each series of the
semi-final Pacific Coast league
playoffs for the Governors' cup
tied at three games apiece.
Credit for Seattle's 4-3 victory
over Portland went to veteran
Hal Turpin, who outpltched
three Beaver moundsmen, while
another old-timer of the circuit,
Jo Jo White, turned the trick
that enabled Sacramento to nose
out the Seals, 1-0.
Beaver Lead
After spotting the Beavers
with a three-run lead in the first
inning, the Rainiers started their
comeback with one run in the
sixth when Bill Matheson tripled
to center and scored on George
McDonald's fly to deep center.
Seattle started a three-run
AIR POWER VITAL
TO RETAIN PEACE;
Air power is peace power,
and since America is now the
most powerful of all nations fn
the air, we must use this power
as an instrument to keep the
peace, declared Harvey Stowers,
assistant to the president of the
Aircraft Industries Association
of America in an address before
(he Jackson County Chamber of
Commerce at the Hotel Holland
Monday noon. Stowers said that
this country, and the entire
world, is entering on the "air
age" end that cities and coun
tries without adequate air parks,
strips, terminals and harbors
will be "by-passed by travelers
and commerce."
Air Conscious
America U as "air conscious"
now as she was "auto conscious"
after the last war. Stowers de
clared, and said that with a half
millijn trained pilots, as com
pared to a mere 30,000 before
the war, we will soon be a na
tion on wings instead of on
wheels. With the new high-speed
100 to 200-passenger transports
now in the process of develop
ment and soon to be put into
service, any point in the world
will be within a few hours of
Med ford, the speaker declared,
and predicted that jet-driven
transports capable of traveling
1500 miles an hour will be In
use within the next i e v e r a 1
years.
Where formerly a few thou
sand persons could afford to
trave' to other countries, air
travel will place this within the
reach of V8st numbers who will
be able to spend their vacations
with a trip to any part of the
world, Stowers said, and added
that tnls Inter-mingling of peo
ple would be a factor for peace

No Barriers Urged
Stiles should not set up re
strictions which will prove bar
riers to private flying, the speak
er said, and added that restric
tions h o u 1 d be on a federal
basis and uniform for all parts
of the country. Stowers said that
commercial flying has limitless
possibilities and told of air
freignters bearing perishable
products, small plants, styles,
medicines newspapers and mag
azines and said that "now we
are talking of a five-cent ton
mile rate whereas a little while
ago we were talking of a 25-cent
ton-mile rate."
Stowers urged his listeners to
work towards maintaining a
high level of scientific research
in this country and declared that
if w had spent a fraction of the
cost of the war on research be
fore the war, "There is a strong
possibility that Hitler would
never have dared to attempt his
plant."
He pointed out that both the
rocket and jet-propulsion were
first discovered in this country,
the former many years before
the war, but that we neglected
furthet research and allowed the
Germans to develop them into
weapons turned against our na
tion. Planes Save Country
Documents and plans seized
from the Germans show that
without the vast air power
which the allices were able to
throw on to Germany, destroy
ing tbeir laboratories and fac
tories, this country might , well
have been the target of rocket
