Tremendous shifts In - man
power have occurred since last
fall with varsity football-players
by the hundreds and thous
ands now In the armed services.
Football form, uncertain under
normal circumstances, probably
will be close to non-existent, i
Remembering that it all in
fun, here are the guesses for the
first big week-end program:
Notre ' Dame-Wisconsin: An
gelo Bertelll still Is operating at
the old Notre Dame stand and so
are a flock of other veterans.
This may be one of the really
atrong college teams of the year.
Wisconsin, touted as Big Ten

Br JUDSON BAILEY
Associated Praia Spoyta Writer
The St. Louis Cardinals, close
to clinching the National league
pennant, are like to be the short
est priced entry the senior cir
cuit has sent against the New
York Yankees in many years
simply because of one man
Mort Cooper.
The odds layers are tentative
ly calling 10 to 7 against the
Cardinals in the world "series
and this is quite a tribute to the
big righthanded pitcher who they
figure might handcuff the world
champions.
Cooper has shown he Is ca
pable of beating just about any
club in baseball any time his
teammates get him one run. Yes
terday he whitewashed the Cin
cinnati Reds 6-0 to assure the
Cardinals of at least a tie for
the pennant and put them in a
position to clinch it today or to
morrow. .
It was Cooper's 22nd victory
against seven defeats and for the
fourth time . this season he al
lowed only two hits, both sin
gles. He walked no one and the
only Red to get past first was
Gee . Walker, who was allowed
to steal second unmolested.
The Dodgers downed Boston
5-3 yesterday by coming from
behind with four runs in the
sixth- inning after spotting the
Braves three runs on four hits
and' three errors in the third
frame. . All of Boston's seven
hits were made off Whit Wyatt
in six Innings before he was re
lieved by Hugh Casey. But Wy
att received credit for the tri
umph,' his 19th and the fifth in
a row for Brooklyn.
In the .only other National
league activity yesterday the
Phils and New York Giants di
vided a doubleheader. Bill Lohr-
man- pitched New York to vic
tory in the first game 8-0 with
a sturdy four-hit performance.

Joe DiMaggio, Keller Give
Yankees Edge
(This is the third of a series
comparing the prospective
World. Series opponents.)
: Br GAYLE TALBOT
NEW YORK, Sept. 25 (P)
The presence of Joe DiMaggio
and Charley Keller, two of the
most dangerous clutch hitters in
baseball, in the Yankee outfield
is sufficient to guarantee the
American League champions an
important edge over their pro
spective World Series rivals, the
St. Louis Cardinals, in the gar
dening department.
Only in right field, where
Enos (Country) Slaughter with
his .316 batting average and 13
homeruns stacks up against Roy
Cullenblne, Yankee replacement
for the departed Vommy Hen
rich, can the Cardinals be fig
ured to hold an advantage over
the '41 world champions.
And even there the statistics
might not offer a thorough com
parison. Cullenblne, a moody
fellow, has been regarded for
several, years as potentially one
of the best outfielders in the
game. The main rap against him
as he drifted from one club to
another in both leagues was that
he seldom bore down.'
He looks and acts like - a
brand-new ball player since he
joined the Yankees. Ho has be
come acquainted with his team
mates and has been pounding the

With Rolland Tutor, 166-pound left guard definitely out of
the starting lineup. Klamath's thus-fnr imbestcn Pelicans tniiglo
with a light Redding, Calif., high school eleven tonight on Modoc
field. . : .
The game will be the second for the Whltcblrds but the Initial
encounter for Frank Nihil's Californlans who have lost but two
games in the past wo seasons. The lantcrn-Jawcd . cx-Klamath
Wildcat coach said this morning
he was unsure of just what kind
of a team he had- developed in
the past three weeks. .
He disclosed, however, that
he'll feature passing as well as a
power-attack and the burden of
both loads will fall on the husky
shoulders of big George Econo
mou, 180-pound halfback. Nihil
said the 17-year-old Greek boy
will be perhaps the outstanding
back on the field tonight. He
runs, kicks and passes.
Only-three lettermen are re

Biggest man- in the California
line is Don Elverud, 206 pounds

MOSCOW, Idaho, Sept. 25
(AP) Coach Francis Schmidt
declined this . morning to pick
a starting lineup for the Uni
versity of Idaho's Saturday foot
fall game with Oregon State,
but he - observed contentedly
that his squad was.in frist class
condition.
Schmidt said ' he still ' was
looking over " several ' combina
tions for both backfield and
line and had not decided which
to send against the Rose Bowl
champions.
PALO ALTO. Calif., Sent. 25
(AP) Marchie Schwartz says
he will be making his first ap
pearance as head Stanford Uni
versity football coach aealnst
"one of the best of the confer
ence" when his team faces
Washington State'' in Stanford
stadium tomorrow.
" Schwartz named Jim Cox to
start at the . right tackle posi-
in Garden
ball at a more valuable rate
than his most 'recent . official
average of .274 would indicate.
The players have a. habit of do
ing that when"-they- join the
Yanks, the Cards, will be well
advised not to regard Cullen
blne as a soft spot in their rivals'
armor. . .
In center field the great Di
Maggio, who has made a notable
comeback after an amazingly
poor start this season, will be
paired against Terry Moore, cap
tain of the Cardinals and one of
the game's outstanding defensive
outfielders. Joe, with even his
deflated sticking average of .307
and his comparatively poor rec
ord of 20 homers for the year,
far overshadows the valiant
Card leader as a hitter. . .
Comparison oi the two left
fielders offers a more ticklish
problem if one is influenced by
the figures. They show, for a
fact, that Stan Muslat, the Cardi
nals' wonderful rookie, is hit
ting a lusty .310 as against Kel
ler's .292,' and. that his. fielding
average is belter than "King
Kong's," too. But the writer has
a suspicion that if 10 pitchers
were picked at random and
asked which player they would
rather face with two out and
the winning run on second, that
the answer would be an almost
unanimous -"don't- be silly,"

Says Fighters Depend on
Him far Tween-Bout Cash
By BID FEDER -
NEW YORK, Sept. 25 .(Pi
Mike Jacobs doesn't know what
War Secretary Stlmson is Inves
tigating about the-Joe Louis-
Billy Conn bout, but since there's
been so much ' hollering over
$94,000 the two boxers owe him,
Mike wonders if folks realize
that fighters . depend on pro
moters for money to keep going
between fights. -
. While officials handling the
bout said today they didn't -believe
the fight would be-called
off, Jacobs pointed out- that
there's nothing unusual : about
fighters owing promoters size
able chunks, especially when the
fighters are the heavyweight
champion and his No. 1 chal
lenger. . j
"Fighters have to go to some
one for money between fights,"
he explained. "So they ask a pro
moter for an .advance an their
next fight. ;Why, right now
there's about $150,000 outstand
ing on my books all money ad
vanced to various fighters.
They'll pay it back as soon as
they get a fight.
"Before the Nova fight, Louis
owed me $64,000. Ho paid me
off out of his purse and took
care of a lot of other debts. Thnt
left him almost broke again, so
by the middle of October he
started borrowing again, figuring
he'd have a fight early this year
and could straighten It out once
more, ... . ; , ,
"But In 'January ho ' fought
Buddy Bner and turned .his en
tire purse over to navy relief, and
In March he knocked out Abe
Simon and gave his whole end
to army relief. So, with no in
come in a year, he's had to bor
row. One of the things I paid
for him was a $21,000 tax bill."

PORTLAND. Sept. 25 (l')ljy nightfall Saluidiiy you'll have
a pretty good Idvu whether tho Puclflc' Count conference elevens
will continue to run high, wide and hiimlnomo In western foot
ball or whnther tho navy will rule tho roont.
That will bo tho upshot "f the appi'iiruiiro hero In MultnomithC
stadium of tho navy's Pro-Flight schoul team, bulging with soma
of tho mil Inn's best collcglalo and pro tiilint, iigiiiiist lis first
conference outfit Unlvorslty
of Oregon.
Not thnt Oregon la ruled 'as
the hot shakes of tho conference,
but If Lieut, Comdr. Tex Oli
ver's Airdovlls glvo the Web-
foots glguntlc pasting, the
other loop schools can expect to
kiss tho big-shut role goodbya
for this year perhaps for the
duration.
It's a possibility that can't bo
laughed off by Oregon State,
V. H. C, Washington, California,
ct al.
The St. Mary's club looks llko
tho west's most explosive grid
package loaded with tho likes
of Stanford's all American
Krnnklo Albert and Gnlo
O'Brien, tho Nvbraskan who
starred In pro company for eight
years. In fact, Tvx has so many
of these largo callbro boys that
ho has to come here with a 44

in.
In this select navy company
aro a bunch of grlddera that
bring tears to tho eyes of the
conference coachco. Including
John Warren of Oregon boys
also would flnNh the beautiful
bums, as they aro scheduled to
finish the season against Phila
delphia Saturday and Sunday.
Tho unplnyed. Ilo.tton game
would be definitely out.
The Cordlnals are certain of
one major Issue they cannot
finish the season with less than
a tie, even if they lost to the
Chicago Cubs Saturday and Sun
day, The Cards already havo
104 victories compared to 40 de
feats, whereas Brooklyn has won
101, and lost 50. To gain a tie,
which would necessitate a play
