SchOOLbOy Out-DeGns
The Deans. Yes, Sir, He
KnOUs All the ANSWERS
RH BILL, CORUM

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Oct. 5.-A
slight mistake in identity has
cropped up in this world series.
One of the Deans has turned
out to be a Rowe.
This annoying mix-up was not
noticed by the st. Louis Cardi-
mails until along about evening
yesterday, when they suddenly
realized that they were looking
at a Dean through the wrong
end of the telescope.
You can easily believe me
when I tell you that this was
most confusing to Manager
Frisch and his Mound City blue
blowers. Here was a Dean
masquerading in a Detroit uni
form under the alias of Lyn'
wood (Schoolboy) Rowe. Prob
ably the schoolboy part was to
make him sound innocent, Ell?
And him just big confidence
man.
But before the Cardinals dis
covered the deception that was
being perpetrated on them, the
shadows were growing taller
and so was Lynwood.
"Why, that's a Dean out there
pitching against u.s." screamed
Professor Clyde Wares, the Car
dinal coach, as Joe Medwick and
Ripper Collins struck out in
succession in the ninth inning.
81 know it is a Dean from the
way everybody is popping up
and striking out. Don't those
umpires know it's against the
rules for anybody except Dean
to pitch like that? What can
they be thinking about to per-
NIT such an outrage to con-
tinue?"
go on" piped up Little Eva
Vance, "that can't be a Dean
out there. The Deans pitch for
our side. That's how I happen
to be here in a world series
at last. The Deans have been
pitching for our side all sum-
mer."
I suppose you can well ina
CINE the CONSERVATION that ex-
listed in the st. Louis dugout as
Q result of all this. So they
called in the best brains on the
club and carefully counted the
Deans. "One-two." It looked as
though all the Deans were
present and accounted for. So
they got a piece of paper and
a pencil and started trying to
figure it out that way.
Never Should Have Won
Here was a young man who
was out-Deaning the Deans.
Here was a 22-year-old kid
who, if he had only been fortu-
nate enough to be late for the
first three innings, might very
well have come up with the
first perfectly pitched ball game
in the history of world series
play. Here was schoolboy
who knew all the answers.

the Oyster pride for top honors.
Only the week previous Rocksie
outperformed The Hour in the
Redland Hunts show at Nor
beck, Md, and won the CHAM
pionship of that meet by taking

: "WiLd" Bill HaLLahGn
Takes 1t on the Chin,
With Fate the Dealer

Yes, indeed, here was a
world series pitcher good enough
to make Detroit dreams come
true, and yet it had to be his
fortune to win a ball game
that he should never, never
have won. For "Schoolboy"
Rowe and the Dean brothers,
too, could have learned some
thing at Navin Field yesterday
from a moon faced little man
from Binghamton, N. Y, who
took it on the chin only be-
cause his luck was out.
I am speaking of william
Anthony Hallahan, a frail, soft
spoken, mild-mannered little left
handler, with an arm of rubber
and nerves of steel, who finally
lost his ball game. But not be.
fore he had given "Schoolboy"
Rowe and 47,000 others a rich
lesson from the Blue Book OF
courage.
Punching away at him inning
after inning, fate slugged him in
the end. The Tigers never did.
They got their first run off
him on a hit that everybody eX-
cept the nonchalant florist-um-
pire, Mr.. Brick owen, thought
was foul by a foot and a half.
Mr.. Owen never really called the
play. He just stood. Perhaps
he was dreaming of his posies.
But while Mr.. Owen stood,
hands in pocket and statuesque,
a Detroit runner, who had just
previously been the recipient Of
a gift two-bagger on an easy
fly which Signor Orsatti circled
warily until too late, galloped
home with the first Detroit run.
While Detroit had a run
where it should never even have
had a hit, fate was only jabbing
the little old man with it's left
at this stage.
Fate was keeping it's right
hand cooked for the final round.
Little Man, What Now?
So it came to the ninth and
he was three doors from home.
Little man, what now?
Well, he got Pete Fox in the
role, and then tried to slip a
third strike by. He had no
pitches to waste in that arm Of
his now, and he knew it. Fox,
anticipating him, singled to
right.
But Rowe sacrificed and when
Gerald Walker came up to
pinch hit for "Jo-Jo" the little
man met him more than half
way. He fairly churned two
strikes into Delancy's mitt. You
could almost see Gerald getting
ready for the long walk back to
the bench. He tipped a foul
against the screen. Then he
raised another high pop over
the first base line.
Delaney waited for Collins.
Collins. waited for Delaney.
Hallahan waited for 'em both.
The second out-the ball game
dropped inside the line and
rolled foul. The reprieved
Walker singled into center to tie
the score-and it was the little
man who took the long walk.

GO SPURS
HA|MAS, LASKY
BY HYPE IGOE

NEW YORK, Oct. 5.-Art Lasky
and Steve Hamas, with a little
stretch of the imagination, are
really fighting for the worlds
heavyweight championship to-
night.
The title actually won't be at
stake when they put up their
dukes in Madison Square Garden.
There will be no browning, nor
will there be photographs tomor-
row of what a new champion eats
and how he acts at the breakfast
table. There will be no big movie
contracts and sponsors of muscle
building wishwash on hand. They
are on another tangent.
The young men in question
truly are fighting for the chance
to meet Max Baer for the heavy.
weight coronet next June. Should
Lasky win with a knockout, he
will be the Jo-dandy for the sum,
mer event. Come a quick and
thrilling knockout in Stoves ia
vor, there would be nothing left
but to match him with Baer.
Steve is so certain of winning
tonight that he has said that he
will simply coast along" until
his June encounter with Baer.
Lasky went to California after
a none too impressive effort
against Hans Birkie in the Gar
den. He was young and slender
then and green, too. He met the
toughest trouble maker in the
business in Birkie. 1t takes every
heavyweight's life to beat Birkie.
and for that reason I've always
credited Lasky with a rather ca
pahle nerfornance that night
