DODGERS LOOK GOOD
Since the Dodgers are billeted

BILE winning three out of four.
On the other hand the Card
inals, tackling the Pirates again
today and tomorrow, and then
moving into Chicago to face the
Cubs in a final pair, have no
assurance that they can win all
four.
MAKE FIVE ERRORS
The Cards whipped them
selves yesterday. They made
FIVE errors, two by shortstop
Martin Marion, and Mort Coop
er, their most reliable right
handler, got knocked out of the
box in the first inning.
Marion made one of his err
rors on the first Pittsburgh
player to come to bat. then
Elbie Fletcher doubled and
both scored on a single by Vince
DiMaggio. Another single by
Deb CAIRNS scored DiMaggio
and chased Cooper to the show
ers. After that the Pirates
made only two other hits, but
the game was gone out the
window as far as the Cards were
concerned.
Lefty Ken Heintzelman,
Missouri boy himself, pitched
six-hit ball for the shutout.
BOUNCE BACK HARD
In the nightcap the Cards
came with the ferceness of
avengers. Max Lanier. a south
paw, pitched fine eight-hit ball,
the Pirates made four errors,
and the Cards made two home
runs one by Stan Musial with
one on and the other by Estei

Of Plays

est. Mary's gridders got hand
full of new plays yesterday after
noon as Coach Lee Hart drove
his charges through long prac-
tise in preparation for Sundays
opener against st. James.
Nearly half-dozen pass plays
were given the Mountaineers,
and after a session of signal
practise, the boys were put
through a tough scrimmage. AS
on Monday nights drills, the
backfield showed more drive and
spirit than did the line. With lit
tie Jimmy Pettipren, quarter,
calling signals, the backs worked
on perfecting their timing and
blocking assignments.
Outstanding during last nights
session were Palmer Hudson and
Ken Vernier, half backs. The re-
serves had a tough time stopping
Hudson's hard running and spin
ming tactics. Vernier, while light,
made a number of long runs from
scrimmage, turning his stiffness
to good stead.
In the front line for the first
team, Bernard Milan, right
tackle, stood out while right
guard Goikle showed plenty OF
fight and punch playing on the
reserves.

. Ann .Arbor, Mich. Sept. a.
R-Coach Charley Bachman
and his Michigan State Spartans
may as well bring their shock
absorbers when they invade the
Michigan Stadium Saturday, for
In the final analysis it's the
power of the Wolverines they'll
have to stop.
Coach Fritz Crisler meant 1t
when he said earlier in the
practise season his Michigan
squad was seeking more decep-
ton and better passing. For two
weeks the Wolverines have
worked overtime on the tricky
way and the overhead game.
POWER BIG THING ~
Although the passes and
slight-of-hand can not be con-
sidered failures, neither can
they be counted in the same
class with the Michigan rushing
power. Yesterdays scrimmage
provided a good comparison.
The passes, although a low per-
centagc was completed. picked
up some yardage and deceptive
plays were smothered as often
as not. but the straight rush
overwhelmed the reserves.
OF course. the defending re-
serves didn't give the tricks an
honest chance because they
knew the plays. But they also
knew how the crushing mach
inc worked and had plenty of
practise upsetting blockers and
trying to tackle the rough-run-
ming backs.
The muscle men of the Mich
igan backfield are fullback Bob
Westfall and the sophomore
tailback, Tom Kuzma.
Bachman's Spartans sampled
the Westfall smash last fall
when ne carried the ball %
times for an average Of bet
ter than six yards per try to
help beat the State eleven FL
to A.
But the invaders from East
Lansing will have new pro-
blem on their hands with
Kuzma. He's the hardest man
on the squad for the tacklers to
get their arms around. He
swings his legs in stride that
frightens all but the stout
hearted. And once he reaches
the stretch, he shifts his pace to
shake off tacklers.
TUNA NO STARTER
The 19-year-old former all
state fulback of Gary, Ind, has
a long way to 60 before he be-
comes the mature triple-threat
the Wolverines need for the
tailback job. He's not consider
ed likely to start against State,
but the scrimmage yesterday In

Roundup
BY HUGH FULLERTON, JR.

oNEW YORK, Sept. 24-tThe
Special News Service) - You
can forget about the pennant
race now and concentrate on the
world-series dope or on picking
those 10 winners in Saturdays
football pool. The buns can
clinch the flag tomorrow if the
Cards blow another one. The
Red Birds must have known it
was all over as soon as they
started kicking grou d RS
around yesterday. The tension
finally got 'em. If the Dodgers
clinch the pennant in Boston,
Jimmy Wasdell will debut as a
pitcher in the home park. He's
been practising by serving them
up in hitting practise. Incl
dentally. Jimmy left the club at
Philly to catch a Montreal
Newark playoff game. May
be he wanted to see what kind
of guys he'll be playing with
next year. Bob Teller has
been taking flying lessons and
his instructor says he soled for
the first time a week ago.
From the looks of the box
scores, he's been soloing most
of the season. Brooklyn isn't
the only place where they take
their baseball seriously. A
judge in White Plains, NJ Y,
interrupted a hearing yesterday
to announce from the bench
that the Cards had lost game.

He voices confidence, however,
that there is no prospect here of a
repetition of the deadly infantile
paralysis epidemic of 1887.
Only one case Of encephalitis
lethargica. or sleeping sickness,
has been reported in Ontario thus
far. and authorities point out that
it is an Alberta woman, who pre-
Isumably had contract the
disease before she came TO this

in strict isolation.
The last case OF sleeping sick
ness reported in Toronto was six

city had nine cases, eight Of them
fatal.

The theory that mosquitoes may
be the chief carriers of encepha-

been known that the sleeping sick

Until recently II was believed

The United States Fish and Wild
Life Service has declared that res
toration activities can make many
former outstanding game areas
more productive than ever. citing
results achieved at the 93,000-acre
Seney Wild Life Refuge in the
heart OF Michigan's Upper PENN
sula.
This area was logged off and
drained 30 years ago in an unsuc-
cessful farming and settlement
scheme. The territory, once a
paradise for game and wild life,
was utterly ruined and was a
failure for a farming project.
In 1885 restoration of the area
was begun with CCC labor. The
area was refooded and natural
wild life conditions restored.
Today this territory contains
more birds, mammals, and fur
bearing animals than before the
logging days, according to old
timers, who declare that condi-
tons are better for wild ducks and
other forms OF wild life than
before.
