DODGERS WIN OVER GIANTS, T03
HOMER IN NINTH
CLINCHES VICTORY
1859 Fans Watch Club Mark
Up Eighth Straight Win;
Wyatt Is Pitcher
Nv HUDSON I L

NEW YORK, April 28-LR-The
hottest team in baseball, Brook
lyn's Dauntless Dodgers, burned
the New York Giants to a 5 to 3
crisp today before 1859 fans who
packed the Polo grounds to the
rafters.
1t was a warm, sunny day and a
ding-dor- battle as good as any
the famous cross-town rivalry has
ever produced, so the crowd, pre-
dominantly interested in the Dod-
gers in spite of the game being on
the Giants home grounds, was
we'll satisfied.
But Brooklyn's eighth straight
triumph was a bitter dose for the
Giants, who had their batting Or
der shaken up before the game
and managed to outhit their foe.
A home run in the ninth inning
by Dolph Camilli, scoring Cookie
Lavagetto who had opened the inn
ing with a walk, decided the game.
Otherwise there wasn't much to
choose. Whitlow Wyatt, in winning
his second decision, allowed the
Giants ten this while Harry Gum
bert gave up eight.
Pete Coscarart homered behind
Dixie Walkers single in the sixth
to contribute to the Dodgers cause
and master Mel OFT of the Giants
notched his second circuit blow of
the season in the fifth for New
York.
Both teams played errorless and
often spectacular ball.
1t "a the kind of close game
that indomitable spirit decides and
the Dodgers had it, even when the
Giants looked strongest.
The Terrymen tailed in the Sec
on on Babe Young's double and
Billy urges .ingle and Brooklyn
bounced right back in the third
with a run on Peewee Reese's sin
gle, an infeld out and a smashing
double to right by Walker.
In the fourth Wyatt walked two
and gave a single to load the bases
with two out, but the Giants
couldn't get the ball past that inns
pregnable infeld and after Co.p
c~arart's belt in the fifth the best
the Giants could do was pull into
a tie Gu Otis homer in the last of
the fifth and a run in the sixth on
Mickey Witek's double and John
Fuckers triple.
The great support Brooklyn
gave Wyatt left ten Giants strand
ed on the base paths; Brooklyn
wasted only three.

SMOKE RINGS
Peahead's Prophecy
By SAM Raglan

Maybe it was the fragrance of an April afternoon ana
then again it may have been the fact that great distance
often makes a think look easy-you know, like chasing the
Germans out of Norway. But the fact remains that u. Y;
(Peahead) Walker broke down Saturday and confessed
the whole thing on Wake Forests gridiron fortunes next
fall.
Friends have always claimed that Peahead was eau
tious. but critics know that he is mighty stubborn. Dave
Brinkley says so and he placed the statements into PRINT,
but picking the teams that his team will beat and the
teams that he will lose to doesn't seem like Peahead. hes

No Need For Caution

out on the field next fall ana make
his prophecy true. We'll whip
Marshall, South Carolina. Texas
Tech, n. C. State, Furnan and
George Washington" SO sayeth
Walker, adding, and We'll lose to
Clemson, Duke and North Carolina"
Which may be hitting the bell,
and I guess after all a guy with
such players as John Polanski,
RinggoId, Edwards, Gallovich and
Nayherry backing him vi can af-
ford not to be cautious.
Peahead is a smart coach and
don't let anyone tell you differently,
He rarely talks unless he knows
what he's talking about. He may
change his mind by next September,
but we don't think SO. If he says
they'll win six and lose three, we
accept his word.
