World Series Sidelights
' By AUSTIN BEALMEAH
'NEW YORK, Oct. (,?) Wrap
ping up tho world series for an
othor year, and possibly longer:
It was a long time coming, but
the World Champion St. Louis
Cardinals finally accomplished
what many were advocating
years ago "brenk up the Yan
) kees" . . . The new champs were
on their way back to St. Louis
today, and If they breeze right
on through town without slow
ing down, they should bo ex
cused , , . Aftor nil, a team thnt
can wlpo out a ton-game Brook
lyn lead In tho National league
and whip tho Yanks In a flve
gamo series, winning 47 of Its
last 57 starts, just doesn't know
when to stop.
The Yanktics are old hands at
traveling, but they saw so much
"country" the past few days they
don't care for any "Moore". . . .
Enos (Country) Slaughter and
Terry Moore, the crack guard
ians of tho Cardinals' outer reg
ions, robbed the Yankees of base
hits with circus catches In every
game and divided ten hits .be
tween them . . . Tho honor of
.beating the Ynnks twice in world
F series competition now Is shared
by the Cardinals and the New
York Giants . , . The Cards also
handed the Bombers their last
series defeat in 1026, while the
Giants turned them back In the
1021 and 1022 classics.
If you're wondering why Man
ager Joe McCarthy didn't order
Whltey Kruowskl passed in
tentionally in the ninth inning
yesterday, with only one out, a
man on second and two weak
hitters coming up, remember
that this same Kurowskl fanned
i the 'first three times ho faced
Red ' Ruffing In the opening
' gamo , , . When Kurowskl sock
i ed his game-winning. homer, Mo
Carthy probably was wondering
I the samo thing ... Tho bat he
used to sew up the series wus
the only one Kurowskl brought
from St- Louis, his others having
" been broken in the regular sea
" ton ... He wouldn't lot any of
uia iriHWij use ii in Dtuung prac
tice "and after the gamo ho re
fused talet it out of his sight.

Long aftor the mighty throng
had poured from the stadium fol
lowing yesterday's final contest,
a lone figure emerged and trudg

and forlorn in the gathering

him, holding out a program . .

Members of Uncle' Sam's arm

globe, listened to radio accounts
of the St. Louis Cardinals' vic
tory in the 1042 five-game
World Series with all the thrill
of receiving a letter from home.
Only in Hawaii . were there
any regrets. The New York
Yankees were heavy favorites
thero. ' '
But it was directly opposite
in the Canal Zone. Whitey
Kurowskl, whose homo run
yesterday with a mate on base
gave the Cards, the fourth vic
tory and the title, played short
stop and third base in the Isth
mian League In 1040 and the

as St. Louis' Grand Boulevard.
The Army Signal Corps help

War Will Probably
Break Up Cardinals
St. Louis Hailed as Having Punch,
Pitching, Brightest Polish in Majors
Br GAYLE TALBOT .
NEW YORK, Oct. 6 WWf it were not for the probability that
the war will break it up, the St. Louis Cardinals club that com
pleted tho Job ot wrecking the New York Yankees yesterday
might within the next few years go tearing on to win ranking
with the greatest teams In baseball history..
It is a son-of-u-gun of a baseball club much better than any
one suspected even when It was
running wild in the closing stages
of the National league race.
There is no team In either league
at this tlmo with anything ap
proaching tho all-around punch,
pitching and polish of the new
world champions.
On the off chance that some
body might think we are going
overboard on the bold young
men of Manager Billy South
worth, a few figures might be
in order:
Through yesterday's deciding
game at the stadium, which was
won by 4-2 on a two-run homer
by George Kurowskl, . rookie
third baseman, in the ninth in
ning, the Cardinals won 47 of
their last 57 contests in the 1042
Beoson. That comes to an al
tudlnous winning average of .824
down the stretch.
They slugged and slashed their
way to victory In their last six
straight games in the league race.
paused only to drop the world
scries opener In St. Louis, and
thon battered the Yankees into
submission In four straight.
Some time, some team might
have set a record that looks com
parable in print, but forgive us
if we doubt that the competition
was as tough as that bowled
over by the Cardinals in their
amazing drive to the top.
It is doubtful the Brooklyn
Dodgers could have beaten the
Yankees, i They lacked pitching.
As the series unfolded it became
obvious that the Cardinals not
only had all the dash and color
which had become their hall
mark, but that they also pos
sessed great pitching in quantity,
Mort Cooper, their biggest win
ner, was slugged from the box
twice by the Yanks, yet they
had the men who could take up
the slack in Johnny Beazley,
Ernie White and Max Lanier.
As for the Yankees, they sim
ply ran into a bunch of game,
hard-playing, hungry youngsters.
After they won the second game
at St. Louis, the Cardinals actual
ly believed thoy would take
three straight at the stadium
here, and said so. Those of us
who heard them thought it mere
ly was youthful exuberance. We
didn't quite know the Cardinals
then.
The most Inexplicable collapse
of the classic was contributed
by Joe Gordon, the Yank sec
ond baseman. Standout of the
'41 series, when he practically
beat Brooklyn single-handed,
Gordon made only two hits in
21 times at bat against Cardinal
pitching and didn't shine par
ticularly in the field. He and
Plul Rizzuto did not make their
first double play until the final
game, whereas they stymied
Brooklyn with seven a year ago.
Little Rizzuto played the best
all-around game lor the Yanks,
hammering eight hits in the five
games and fielding cleverly.
EXPERT OPINION
Looks as if old Mike Gonzales
was the champion series fore
caster ... He said: "Maybe we
lose one, maybe two, but no
more." . . . This department hit
the number of games right on
the nose but had the wrong
team and plenty, of company in
picking the Yanks ' . . . Only
five of the experts polled by the
A. P. before the series named
the Cards and no one said fewer
than six games for them.

the game. He did suffer painful
cuts and bruises about the head,

Raucous Greeting Ready '
For New World Champs
ST. LOUIS, Oct. 8 JP) It
won't be another 1028, when
St. Louis' fans practically dis
mantled the city celebrating the
Cardinals first world series
championship, but there will be
a raucous welcome home party
today.
The Cardinals, with the pen.
nant in their pockets following a
four-out-of-five games victory
over the New York Yankees, are
due in St. Louis at 5 p. m. Ma
yor William D. Becker will lead
thousands of fans in the cheering.
Few were the radios that were
silent yesterday. And around
each huddled a group of excited
fans, glum and wrought up by
the turns as first the Yanks went
ahead and then the Cards came
back to tie it up.
The roar in Yankee stadium
which went up when Whitey
Kurowskl hit his two-run homer
in the ninth to clinch the victory
wasn't much louder than .. that
raised by the local fans.
Before the cries of We ve
Done It!" had died away, the
game was over and the celebrat
ing begun. Hundreds hurried
into the streets. Everybody tried
to slap everybody else on the
back.
Some Mississippi river boats
blew their approval. Automo
bile horns honked. Street car mo-
tormen clanged their bells.
Wastebaskets were emptied
from office windows.
Cards Spurn Taxis, Ride
Nickel Subway From Park
By SID FEDER
NEW YORK, Oct, 6 (JP) A
bunch of St. Louis Cardinals
came bustling out of Yankee
stadium, still boisterous at win
ning the world series, brushed
off the cab drivers and headed
for the subway and the niokel
ride back to their hotel.
That is as good a way as any
of leading into the possibility
that all that "gallantry" and
"gameness" of the crash-house
gang came from that $6,192.50
waiting for each player at the
finish of the 1942 series and
the Cards are a lean, hungry
team.
This, Incidentally, is not try
ing to take a thing away from
the running Redbirds. They hit
when they had to. They ran
when it counted.
Just look at the way Johnny
Beazley pulled himself out of
two clutches yesterday. And
how about that clinching homer
by Whitey Kurowskl? He's the
player the Yankees tabbed as the
"All America Out" before the
series started.
But the reports are that the
top-priced player on the young
St. Louis outfit draws down in

CHICAGO, Oct. 8 (P) The
.Chicago Cubs won an extra in
ning game from the White Sox
last night, 2-1, keeping alive
their hopes for victory in the
annual city series.
The win, second straight for
the National leaguers, gave the
Cubs a chance to extend "the
four of seven series to the limit
with a victory tonight. The Sox
won the first three encounters.
Claude Passeau, the Cubs' ace,
and the veteran, Ted Lyons,
pitched scoreless ball until the
eighth Inning when the National
leaguers put over one run only
to see the Sox score the equalizer
In the last of the ninth. .-
Phil Cavarretta's triple and
Bob Sturgeon's fly accounted
for one run In the 10th Inning
and It was the margin of victory.
