Mac PhaiI Valuable
 Asset To Dodgers

lyn from Cincinnati. Out there he had taken over a bankrupt, deso- late ball club. In short time we had put 1t in the chips. Building carefully. shrewdly - and of course boisterouSly - it wasn't long be- fore he had the groundwork of a championship team. The tip-off was that Cincinnati won the pen- nant twice in a row. and mostly with MacPhail's players. This was after he left.
 It was early Cincinnati all over when the redhead moved into Brooklyn. There were debts all over the place. The bankers had the club and didn't want it. Even the park itself was in frightful shape. It hadn't been painted for three years or more. Well, you know what happened. Everything was turned upside down. Overnight the customers had a new park, in ap- pearanceS, at least, and they had the beginning of a new club.
 We won't bore you with details. Still, we'd like to remind you that Dolf Camilli was the first player MacPhail bought, and bought with borrowed money. Wed like also to ask you where our buns would be today if 1t weren't for Camilli. Who has been coming up there in the clutch and winning those key games but the big wop? One other player deal we should like to mention. It brought Billy Herman to the Dodg- CTS. Where do you think our bums would be without Herman around second base. not only playing the game of his life. but adding poise. as much as he possibly can under the circumstances, to the excnsably jitteFy peewee Reese. Some day the real story og this deal with the chi- cago Cubs will be revealed and we can assure you 1t will make interest ing reading. Just as q hint. we'll tell you Herman didn't cost Mac PhaN more than tl2.5O0 W and the redhead is supposed to be the kind of guy who throws money away. his own and others.

CARD SOUTApAW STAFF TO FACE DAFFY DODGERS
Crucial National League Three Games Series to
 Start Thursday
BY PAUL sHEFrELs

United Press Stan COrrespondent)
 New York, Sept. 9. (UP)-The Brooklyn Dodgers and St. Louis Cardinals, rocketing down the stretch in one of the National Leagues bitterest flag fights, engage in preliminary skirmishes with the Chicago Cubs and Philadelphia Philles today before starting in their all-important throe-gaIne series beginning Thursday.
 While the Dodgers, leading the league by tree games, do not diS- count the Cubs as soft touceS, and Cards treat the Phillies with equal respect, every man on both squads is geared for the critical series at SportSman'S Park.
 It would not be eXaggerating to say that tese games appear in proS- pect as the most exciting and closest set of contests walked in the major leagues this year. The teams have played to 19 decisions, 10 victories for the Cards and nine for the Dodgers. They played one l2-inning tie, faced each otsr In three double. headers and split each of them.
 Both pitching staffs have been rotated to bring their most effective moundsmen to the firing line. Luke Hamlin and Kirby Higbe are sched- uled to pitch to two-game set against the Cubs, who will use Claude Passeau and Paul Erickson. Hamilin has won only eight games for Brooklyn this year while Passeau has racked up lS victories, including three victories in four starts against the Dodgers.
 That leaves Fred Fitzsimmons, 4O- year-old knucgleball veteran, to open the series against the Cards. Whit Wyatt will toss the second game and Lean Curt Davis will go in the finale. "Fitz" has won five and lost one and was beaten, S-1, in his last start against St. Louis, when he was given poor support. Wyatt will try for his 20th victory while Davis has notched 10 triunphs.
 Manager Billy Southworth will send as many lefthandders as he can against the Dodgers. Howie Pollet and Ernie White will handle the first two games and may be followed by Max Lanier in the third contest. Mort Cooper, belted from the box in his last three starts, may get the call over Lanier if Pollet and White fare badly.
 White has won IT games and Pol- let has turned in complete jobs in all Of his four major league starts, winning three. Lanier has Q medi- ocre 7-8 record while Cooper has registered l3 triumphs.
 On call for bVllpen duty for the Dodgers will be Rubbed-armed Hugh Casey and Johnny Allen and for the Cards, Clyde Shoun-another lefty Lon WaIneke and Harry Gumbert.
 Southworth has scheduled War neke against the Phils' Johnny Podgajny today with Bill Crouch or Howie Krist figured to pitch tomor- TOW.
