Experience, Control
Rote Derringer as
FeIIer's Superior
BY GAYLE TALBOT.
Associated Press Snortx Writer.


NEW YORK, Sept. 24.-The
Cincinnati Reds, with Paul Der
ringer and Bucky Walters rested and
full of purpose, must be conceded
the pitching edge over either the
Detroit Tigers or the Cleveland
Indians-whichever they tackle in
the World Series next week.
Some might like to argue the
point, particularly those who regard
young Bob Feller of the Indians as
the greatest pitcher in the game
today. Yet the fact seems fairly
obvious to this observer, at least,
considering all the factors.
For the first time in many year,
the National League race was de-
cided in time to give its champions
breathing spell. Walters and Der
ringer, instead of going into the
series whipped down as they did a
year ago against the Yankees, should
be refreshed and at the very peak OF
their ability.
Tribe, Tiger Stats Stale.
The Cleveland and Detroit mound
staffs, on the other hand. are likely
to feel the strain of their tense
fight for the flag. With the ex-
ception of Feller, they are not
youngsters. either. Tommy Bridges
of the Tigers, perhaps the clubs
greatest money" pitcher, is ap-
preaching his 35th birthday, and
his snap-back is Eot what it once
was.
Cincinnati has won two straight
National League pennants on the
strength of superb mound work, and
little else. In fact if the Reds sud-
denly were to be deprived of this
pitching superiority-then there
wouldn't be much sense in their
playing Detroit in a World Series.
for the Tiger sluggers would have
an enormous advantage over the
Reds in sheer test of hitting.
The American League winners can
count on facing Derringer in the
first game, Walters in the second,
Junior Thompson in the third, and
then back to Derringer. They are
three fine righthanders, two of
them 20-game winners.
Derringer Star In Clutch
Many a baseball man regards
Derringer as the best clutch"
pitcher in the business, preferable
even to Feller in tight spot because
of his great experience and near
perfect control. Back Of their big
three the Reds fall off sharply. But
they have the National Leagues best
relief man in Joe Beggs to take up
any slack, and a canny veteran in
Jim Turner.
Against this array Cleveland offers
the phenomenal young Feller, who
hurled one no-hitter this season and
barely missed couple more, and Al
Smith and Al Mnnar. a brace of
winning southpaws, as its slightly
unbalanced big three.
1t is problematical what Feller
would do in series He might blow
the Reds down. But he is young
ster without World Series expert
ence, and the National Leaguers beat
him in the all-star game at Tampa
last spring. AS for Smith and Mil
mar, they are lefties. and the Reds
are a right-hand hitting ball club.
The veteran Mel Harder possibly
would supplant either Smith or Mil
