GEORGE KUR0WSKI
lSNPICAI OF
CHAMPION PLAYER

NEW YORK. Oct. Cup
The world series poSt-mortems will
carry countless reasons for the
failure of the New Yerk Yankees
and the sensational success of the
St. Louis Cardinals. But they hard
" are necessary. All that is need
ed is a quick look at the career of
George (Whiteyl KuroWski, the
hero OF the fifth game, for he typi-
fies the championship ball player.
KuroWski, whose ninth-inning
homer with one en- provided the
Cardinals with their fourth vic
tory and the baseball championship
of the world at Yankee Stadium
yesterday, symbolizes the indomita-
bic neYer-Say-die spirit of the Red
Birds. A quick look at his record
makes the St Louis triumph easily
understood.
Reporting TO the Cards for his
first big league shot this spring,
Whitley had to supplant the highly
regarded Creep CreSpi. Then he
was hit in the face by a line-drive
during practice. Later, he suf-
fered several strained ligaments in
a Oodger-Card game. And that's
not all.
Whitley suffers from insomia
while travelling He has to catch
his sleep after the team makes
its Pullman jumps.
Yes, like the rest Of his team
mates, who overcame a 10i2 game
Brooklyn lead in their ow-historic
September surge to the National
League flag, Whitley is hard TO dis.

CAN'T FIGURE 1T

The Yankees, scattering to their
homes as the Cardinals were rolling
west today. still couldn't figure out
what hit them. Neither could many
baseball fans. for winning had be-
come such a habit with the Bronx
SomberS.
But no team is good enough to
win all the time The law of aver
ages and a better ball club finally
caught up with them.
The war may change the baseball
picture next year, although there
is every indication that the game
will go on under a slightly differ
ent pattern. They either will have to
get along with kids under draft age
and there are few of them of
major league caliber-or the older
players. Thus, it isn't likely that
there will be another team like the
Cardinals for a long time.
The series finish yesterday could
mt have been more dramatic. The
never-Say-die Cinderella BOYS twice
came from behind, fought off four
bad errors and won out in the
ninth inning on a home run by
George KuroWski, the rookie third
baSeman.
Kurowski took care of the hitting

El CentrO'S Spartans have bye
in high school play this week.
The Wildcats, whom preseason
experts rated as the toughest COM
petition for the Spartans in the race
for valley supremacy, will have a
tough time with the Bulldogs.
Coach Lee Bogle's CaleXico squad
coasted to a 1877 victory over the
Impepfal Tigers in the opening
game of the season last week.
In Ralph Samaha, quarterback
in the T formation, Boyle has an
ace passer. It was his deliberate
waiting until he was sure a receiver
was in the clear in the Imperial
game that impressed observers most.
Samaha was responsible for enc
touchdown and set up another on
a long pass.
1t is Samaha that Coach Sheldon
Loughborough had in mind Mon
day night when he sent the Wild
cats through intensive pass defense
plays.
John Williams left halfback and
Brawley's main offensive threat,
practiced kicks and will probably
do most of the punting for the squad.
Wen punt, pass and pray"
Loughborough said, taking a slight
ly pessimistic view Of the Friday
game.
The Vikings, still smarting from
the 800 defeat handed them by FL
Centro's scoring machine last week,
will attempt to come back to life
against the Imperial Tigers.
The Tigers have Jack Googe, hard
running fullback, and may use
him to hang another defeat on the
Vikes. Coach Al Lonski also has
three other fast men in his back
field and heavy line TO clear the
way for them.

NEW YORK, Oct. Cup -
In cleaning up the press box after
the world series, we discovered that:
Phil Scooter Ri2zuto of the
Yanks, smallest player in the clas-
sic, walged off with the biggest bat
ting average, .381. We hope he
bats that well against the Japs af-
ter joining the navy soon .
Meanwhile Joe Flash" Gordon,
star of the 1941 Dodgers -Yanks SER
les, became the goat in this one,
getting only two hits in 81 trips to
the plate, and being thrown out
in costly fashion in the ninth in
ming of the final contest.
TRACK TEAM
CASEY Stengel of the Braves in
sists the Cards are a track team" "
not ball GLIB. He says they're so
bloomin' fast on the bases that,
one day at Braves field, Johnny
Hopp walked and when the pitcher
pulled his caD a bit tighter and
looked up to watch Hopp, he learn
ed to his dismay that Johnny was
on third
The Cards were the youngest
team ever TO win the series and,
likely, the loWest-salaried outfit to
turn the trick in 20 years. 1t is
reported that no player on the club
gets more than $4,000 a year and
that most of them get less than
half that. To some of those
"chain-gangers," the $2,841 differ
ence between a winning players
share and a losers cut looked al
most like a years salary. No Won
der the money-hungry lads were
inspired.
AL Schacht clown prince of base
ball was asked, whats wrong with
the Yanks in this series?" Schacht
replied the Cards" Anyway
it seems The War, The years and the
Cards have taken pretty good care

Breezy Rhythm band, which didn't
even play the fair that is, not III
person.
But Lou Breese, while he was still
Chez Paree in Chicago, thought it
would be timely, in view of the fairs
in both New York and San Fran
cisco to make an arrangement Of
the old English folk tune, "Come
to the Fair. He featured 1t on his
NBC broadcasts and made Varsity
record of it.
John S. Young, radio director Of
the New York fair and former NBC
announcer, heard the arrangement
on the air and thought 1t was so
outstanding that he sent for the
record, to see If his associates
couldn't figure out some means OF
adopting" 1t as a means Of pro-
motion for the fair. They did fig
ure out a way. and an announcer
and producer flew to Chicago to
make a radio transcription featur-
ing Leu Breese and his orchestra,
with the tunes "Come to the Fair
How Can I Ever Be Alone" and

latter from the Fairs own lavish

George Avery's column In the
Hartford Courant this week gives a
game played in the recent HYPD
tournament between Moss of Yale
and Hewlett of Harvard. Moss with
the white pieces played an inverted
Sicilian and won his game due main
'ly to the fact that Hewlett tried the
Fianchetta variation, a move be-
hind. This variation is seldom used
by the first player against the ST.
Gillian because White does not seem
to get enough of an attack against
Blacks counter-play. With the
Black pieces in the inverted Sicilian
it is entirely unsatisfactory. Also
the four paWns attack against the
king side, popular in this type of at
tack, is easily parted when used
with the White pieces and is appar-
emily suicide when played with the
move behind. Moss is to be congra-
tulated on his excellent play against
this variation.
