New York, Aug. 8-(UP)-The
Grounds. The Dodgers should adopt
wrong teams playing in the Polo
the oval-shaped arena underneath
Coogan's Blub as their home field.
They look like champions every
time they show up there. The Dodg-
ers' record at the Polo Grounds Is
perfect-six played, six won, pct.
1000.
Last night under the arc lights
the Dodgers licked the Giants, 8-4,
before 53,997 paid customers-larg-
est throng ever to see a National
league night game-and spoiled the
celebration for Mel OFT, the grand
little outfielder playing his 18th sea-
son for the Giants.
AL in all 1t was a Brooklyn hol1-
day. Probably half the throng came
from across the river to cheer for
"their beloved buns" and they rock
ed the home Of the Giants to the
rafters then the Dodgers blasted
Carl Hubbell from the mound In Q
5-run rally in the seventh.
After the ceremonies honoring OFT
were over, 1t was all Brooklyn. The
two Dodger heroes were Dixie
Walker, the outfielder Larry Mac
Phail was saying Brooklyn didn't
need last winter, and fat Freddy
Fitzsimmons. Walker slashed out
four straight hits, two singles, a
homer and triple and drove IN
four runs. It was the second straight
game in which he made - for B"
against the Giants. Fitzsimmons.
although he was taken out for o
pinch hitter in the seventh. was
credited with his 18th victory
against two defeats. It gave the
39-year-old Brooklyn pitcher o
great deal Of pleasure to beat his
ex-mates and Terry, who sent him
away in 1887 as washed up.
Reds Fire Up
Brooklyn's triumph, combined
with the Reds 10-inning defeat by
the Cubs, enabled the Dodgers to
trim Cincinnati's lead to five games.

While most of the Infantry unit

seniors are then promoted to the
advanced course and attend camps
each summer.
Graduates of the advanced courses
are awarded commissions in the
Reserves, and these graduates who
are under 81 years. receive the COM
missions when they come of age. 1t
was said at the university that
sophomores who did not join the
