ond clash of q vital three-game
series with the leading Brook
Ign Dodgers.
Howard Pollet, whose cool
ness bellies his youthfulness and
brief experience in organized
baseball, was Manager Billy
Southworth's choice to oppose
the veteran flatbush flock in
the game which may make or
break the Red Birds title as
pirations.
Against him gesturing Leo
Durocher, boss of the Brook

DODGERS CONFIDENT
The Dodgers were confident
after yesterdays 6 to 4 victory
in II innings increased their
first place margin to two games,
but the Cardinals continued de-
fiant and determined to take
over the leadership by sweeping
the two tits remaining.
Errors played a major role in
the first contest, witnessed by
1880 paying customers.
Ernie White, freshman south
paw, who had beaten the Do
dgers four times previously,
doled out only seven hits and
could have won easily but for
ragged defense.
Marty Marion's tumble of
Joe Medwick's potential double
play grounder with one out in
the fourth filled the bases. A
fly ball scored one runner and
Dolph Camilli's 33rd homer
followed, climaxing the four

However, the Dodgers made
it as tough for their 40-year-old
right hand star, Fat Freddy
Fitzsimmons. committing four
hobbies to match the Cardinal
total.
An error by Medwick aided
the Cards in their two-run third
frame and shortstop Peewee
Reese and catcher Mickey
Owen bobbled in the seventh
inning when the Red Birds
knotted the score.
Fred (Dixie) Walkers single
after Medwick's one baser,
Harry Lavagetto's walk, an
error by Johnny Mize and
Camilli's sacrifice produced the

ly next week also.
The 210-pound Detroiter, a sen
