Choice
To Win
By PAT ROBINSON

pur, Jewish day of atonement,
and the sixth game Of the World
Series arrive tog ether. With
Hank Greenberg vowing he'll try
to play and Trainer Denny Car.
roll and Manager Mickey Coch-
rane just as insiStent he WON'T.
How could we miss on day
like this?" says Hank But
Hanks arm still looks sadder
than Schoolboy Rowe's pan after
Chuck Klein hit that one in the
bleachers on him. Edna must
have felt that one all the way
down in Arkansas. =.
Odds are to 5 Tommy Bridges

Today. and 2 to / the Tigers
win the series. =.
Cubs are more confident than
they were before yesterdays vic
tory. but all of them wondering
what they will use for pitching
material tomorrow even if they
win today.
Lon Warneke's shoulder has
been baked to a turn. but it's
still sore he pulled a ligament
pitching to Rowe in the fifth.
but said nothing to Charley
Grimm until after the sixth. =.
when the pain was so bad he

and master Tiger tanner.
Moriarty Razzed
Rumor is George Moriarty, the
much-razzed jumps, will be a gent
without portfolio next summer.
Cub fans rode him unmercifully
yesterday. Georges ears prob
ably were the only warm spots in
the park. they must have burned
with the language tossed their
way.
Everybody but George thought
Jurges was safe at the plate E.
even Mickey Cochrane isn't so
sure he was out. and that de-
cision might have cost the Cubs
the game and series. and when
the humorless Iristman changed
his mind about calling Gehringer
out on strikes in the ninth, he
was setting the stage for a riot. =.
Gabby Hartnett took time out
to tell George what he thought
of his umpiring But I didn't
cuss him." explains Gabby. .."I
just told him he was as lousy as
his decisions" -. =.
After which Gehringer, Goslin
and Rogell singled one run was
in, the tying run on base, and
some of the more irate fans edg-
ing toward the field with bottles. .
If the game had been lost,
Moriarty would have needed a
whole battalion of cops to get him
out of the park alive.
Cubs paid high tribute to Rowe
e. Hartnett says he's one heluva
pitcher. but the Schoolboy him!
self says he didn't have his curve
working right. IF he didn't"
says Gabby, "Td hate to hit
against him when he's really
good. -"
Happiest guy in the land is
Freddy Lindstrom. because he
broke his finger in the fourth
game. e. THAT was great break
for u.s." punned Lindy. ."It got
me out and Klein into the game
and Chuck hit one so hard it had
blisters on it. :"
Tigers don't wish Warneke any
bad luck. but if he's through
for the series it will be alright
with them. and if they never
see him again it will be soon
enough.
Lon Determined
Lon thinks he'll be ready for
the final game. so does Trainer
Andy Lotshaw. the other Cubs
are not so certain...
"We've still got q shot at
that extra two grand" said
Charley Grimm. "They didn't
hurt French the other day and
1 think he'll take them to-
day. -"
Cochrane is equally positive
Bridges will repeat his second
game performance. Hes had
plenty of rest" Iron Mick ex-
planned, "and I look for him to
be tougher than ever. I think
we'll be on our way home to-
night. -"
Flea Clifton may have won him
self a regular job with his work
at third base. his fielding has
been sensational and while he
hasn't yet made a hit, he's hit
several right on the whiskerS. E.
Owen has been complete flop
seventeen times up and seven.
tee times down without the SEM
blance of a hit is his record.
no wonder Greenberg is eager
to get in there swinging for the
dough-.
Hank figures he couldn't hit
worse than Owen even if he used
only one arm to WELD the bat.
he probably couldn't at that, but
he probably won't get chance. E.
