10 MAIL TRIBUNE, Medford, Oregon, Sunday, October 5, 1938 YAHKEES mn into WITH 4-0 W Drives In All Runs For 4-0 Win By OSCAR FRALEY New York-l'PD-"Scrap Iron" Hank Bauer, a link with the days when the New York Yankees were a legend of power, crashed the embattled Bronx Bombers back into the World Series, two games to one, Saturday when he drove in all the runs in a 4-0 victory over the Milwaukee Braves. The battling ex-Marine, a Kankee standby for more than a decade, lashed out a bases-loaded single for two runs in the fifth and then brought those twice-beaten Yankees completely off the floor with a two-run homer in the seventh. Those were the runs which carried big Don Larsen-loser in last year's finale-back to the winning heights again as he fire-balled and fielded the Yankees through seven sus pensef ul innings. L a r s e n didn't match his history-making no-hitter of 1956 because the recuperating arm which hadn't pitched a full game in three months tired and flame throwing Ryne Duren had -to come on in tlie eighth to close ROBLEE'S FAMOUS INVISIBLE STITCHING Looks cleaner, lighter in weight ffl ' Black or Brown B-C-D, 7 to 12 You'll enjoy smart styling as well as a smooth com fortable fit in these famous Roblees.

But Bauer's record-break ing bat-smashing out three of the four Yankee hits and run ning his consecutive World Series hitting streak to 17 straight games spelled the difference as the Yankee hung the defeat on veteran Bob Rush before a roaring crowd of 71,599 this warm, hazy day. Gave It All He Had Larsen gave it all he had and it was plenty while it lasted. His bulleting fast ball and baffling breaking pitches set eight of those Braves down on strikes and stranded another 10 straining baserunners. And it was Larsen's sterling de fensive play in the sixth which choked off the most dangerous Milwaukee threat Then, when his six - hit pitching and Bauer's bat had parlayed the Yankees just two innings from home, Duren came on with the fastest and wildest pitch in baseball to turn back those Braves with out a hit. The Yanks threatened again in the sixth, getting two on with two out. However, Rush set them down before leaving the ball game for a pinch-hit ter in the seventh. Del Cran- dall set up his exit by greeting Larsen with a single, Johnny Logan flied out, Rush's pinch hitter, Harry Hanebrink pop ped out, and after Bruten walked, Schoendienst flied to Mantle. New York was looking for a cushion about - this time, with Larsen having "had it," and Bauer took care of the demand almost immediately. With one out, old Enos (Coun try) Slaughter batted for Lar sen and managed to get him self hit by a pitched ball off the slants of Don McMahon. That's when Bauer stepped in and knocked one into the left field stands for his third homer of this series and his sixth in djassic play. Today, when they come back to "the house that Ruth built, for the fourth game, both teams will go back to their "big "men." For the Braves it will be Lefty Spahn, who won the opener at Mil waukee. The Yankees will shoot with Whitey Ford, the "little iceman" who started the opener which was lost in relief by Duren. "We woke up today," Stengel said in the clubhouse after it was all over. But he still couldn't be too IS HPnr 1 ..SO TIF Your P UAT mm PROTECT YOUR LIFE and e a Careful Sportsman SITTING in dugout, Yankee Manager Casey Stengel is study in concentration as second World Series game starts in Milwaukee Stadium. happy over the hitting-ex cept for those three Bauer blows out of the past.

MEDFORDvTRIBUN Error In Judgment Hits Braves New York-fUPD ' Manager Fred Haney and third-base coach Billy Herman agreed Saturday that an "error in judgment" by Red Schoendi enst caused the traffic tieup which broke the back of the Milwaukee Braves' sixth in ning threat and let Don Lar sen off the hook in the third game of the World Series. "Red would have scored if he had kept going," said Haney. "It's hard to second guess a play like that and I don't want to lay the blame on anybody. But I think Red would have made it if he had kept going." "I waved him home and forgot about him," said Her man. "I thought he had it made or I wouldn't have sent him in. Hank Aaron wasn't at fault at all when he made the dash for third." Schoendienst was on sec ond and Aaron on first with one out when Wes Covington sent a sharp drive which bounced off first-baseman Bill Skowron's glove to the box seats behind first base. Shco endienst rounded third but held up 15 feet down the line and was hung up between third and home when Aaron dashed around second for Second for third- Milwaukee 000 000 000 0 New York 000 020 20x 4 PO A Milwaukee 24-8.

Center Sparks 14-0 Win For Resurgent Oregon State Coryallis -(UPD- Resurgent Oregon State, sparked by a 50-yard touchdown run by center Bruce Hake on an in tercepted pass, blanked the UCLA Bruins 14-0 in a Pacific Coast conference game Satur day to preserve Coach Tommy Prothro's record of never hav ing lost a home game. Hake, a 200-pound junior from Oceanside, Calif., who played only 28 minutes last season, picked off a pass from Don Long of UCLA on the second play of the second half and raced unmolested down the sidelines to score. Oregon State, a disappoint ment in its first two games, got its other touchdown in the first half on an 84-yard drive sparked by halfback Paul Lowe, an old UCLA nemesis. Hake also played a fine game on defense as the Ore gon State line outplayed the UCLA forward wall. Tackle Ted Bates and guard Jim Brackins were other Oregon standouts in the line. Oregon State had an alert pass defense, intercepting four UCLA aerials in all. Leon Criner, who alternated with Lowe at the tailback spot for Duke Nets 15-13 Win Durham, N.C.-flJPD-Duke ig nited its split-T fireworks Sat: urday but Illinois also caught the spark and the Blue Devils ended up fighting to save a 15-13 victory for 25,000 par tisan fans. vDuke put across first-half touchdowns on surges of 40 and 80 yards to take a 15-0 lead, but achieved its first win in five games on a pass for a two-point conversion.

UCLA drove 67 yards in the first half to the Oregon State 16 but wound up a yard short of a first down on a fourth' down pass play.
