ing about Moore's play, nearly tore
down the stands.
Frustrated at every turn, the
Yankees grew more snappish. In
the ninth inning, after Chandler
had been lifted for Pinch-Hitter
Red Ruffing and Relief Pitcher
Marvin Breuer went to the box,
their tempers flared again and even
New York fans turned against
them.
Brown, first to face Breuer, sim
gled to right and Moore followed
with a bunt. Breuer pounced on
the ball and threw to second base,
the ball pulling Gordon to the right
side of the bag. Umpire Magerkurth
called Brown safe and for several
minutes the game was held up as
Gordon, Di Maggie, Rizzuto and
two or three other Yanks bulledl
Magerkurth into right field to argue.
Slaughter's Hit Scores Moore.
Slaughter, next up, singled to CEN
ter, Brown scoring and Moore rae
ing for third. Di Maggie pegged
to Third Baseman Frank CroSetti
and when Umpire Summers called
the runner safe Crosetti angrily
threw down the ball. rushed Sum-
mers and pushed him violently. He
was pushed right back, but half a
dozen of his teammates joined in
screaming at and jostling the ar
bitter.
When the jeers of the crowd be-
gan to pour down, Mccarthy re-
placed Breuer with the veteran,
Jim Turner, who purposely passed
Musial and forced Cooper to hit
fly too short to score Moore. Then
Johnny Hopp followed with a hoist
to Keller, whose throw to the plate
doubled up Moore.
The Yanks made one dying bid
in the ninth when Di Maggie sin
gled with one out. After Gordon
fouled out Keller hit his second
homer" almost identical to that
Of the sixth inning. Again Slaugh-
ter grabbed the ball and that was
the game.
Not only did the Yanks lose a
game and some favor, but they also
lost their regular first baseman,
Hassett, who sustained a fractured
left thumb when he attempted to
bunt in the first inning. The ball
caromed oil the bat and caused
the injury which undoubtedly will
eliminate him from further play
this year.

in, grim faced and weary.
Manager Joe Mccarthy went
straight to his ONCE, where he sat
as If in a daze, apparently unable
to believe that his team had dropped
two games in a row.
Mccarthy Picture Of Gloom.
With his uniform still intact, even
to his cap, Mccarthy sat and opened
his mail as he talked to reporters,
disappointment written all over
him.
"You can't beat that" declared
the Yankee skipper, recalling the
play which was called off in the
third inning when Martin Marion
of the Cards got two chances at
bat and finally hit swinging bunt
that put the first run in scoring
position.
I'VE claimed he hit the ball
twice" said Mccarthy. The sec
ond time he was not in the box
and should have been out. They
brought him back and what did
he do but hit swinging bunt No,

Buddy Hassett, who suffered a
fractured left thumb in the opening
frame, led the Yankee players into
the clubhouse, attired in his street
clothes. He had returned after an
X-ray examination.
Spud Chandler was the first man
dressed. Most of the players who
finished the game took their time
getting out of their uniforms and
none had anything to say.
When some had finished dress
ing, however, Bill Dickey, Keller and
Joe Di Maggie still sat in front of
their lockers. clad in their playing
clothes and staring into space.

York Yankees, 2 to 0, in the third
game of the series today and move
into a 2-to-1 lead. It was the first
time the Yankees had been behind
in series since 1896 when the .:ew
York Giants won the opening game
with the Yanks coming back to win
four straight.
Southworth himself was the au-
thority that the Cards had been
relieved of tension.
But, mind you," he explained,
Il amt going to make any predic-
tions. We've still got to win two ball
games. The Yankees are tough
there are no tougher, and we've got
to play to win"
Praises Enemy Pitcher.
SouthWorth praised Spurgeon
Chambers pitching, the pitching of
his own victorious Ernie White and
the marvelously thrilling, jumping
one-handed catch Enos Country
Slaughter made of Charley Keller's
smashing drive in the seventh in
ming.
Slaughter, with perfect timing,
jumped to make the catch with his
gloved left hand as the ball was
dropping into the crowded stands
for home run.
That was thriller" Southworth
said. TT would have gone into the
stands for sure to tie the score.
Chandler pitched a fine game.
He used his control to good advan-
tage. White also had good control
and a lot of stuff. 1t was as good a
game as I've seen him pitch all
summer"
The grinning White, who held the
Yanks to six hits. thought it was
the best game he'd ever pitched in
his life.
Boy, I feel gooder as hell" he
yelled. 1T was the greatest game
I ever hope to pitch"
Cooper or Lanier Hurls Next.
Southworth said either big Nor
ton Cooper, ace right-hander, or
Max Lanier, lefty would oppose
the Yanks tomorrow. He said he
wanted to talk the situation over
with Lanier tonight to learn how he
feels before reaching a decision.
Cooper, a 22-game winner, with
10 shutouts and only defeats, hopes
Southworth will select him. The
Yanks beat him. to 4, in the open
ing game at St. Louis.
The 2S-year-old Cooper is conf
dent he can blot out that defeat.
Il had six days rest and didn't
have my control" Cooper explained.
I've got it now"
Cooper is sure the Cardinals are
on their way to the world cham
pionship.
We've got the big edge now" he
said. They've got to win three out
of four now"
I'VE haven't lost a series since
last July. when Brooklyn beat us,
four out of five. It's damn tough to
beat this club three out of four"

Ford had several close calls In the

to beat Harrison Tyler, who had a
46-to-31 advantage With many in
the gallery pulling for an upset, he
faced Ellis yesterday in the opening
game of the evening. The game
opened with an Ellis double which
Ford covered with one shoe. Over

the Cardinals were viewing from

The bases were 80 feet apart, the

Cards made the distance look
shorter. And they showed the
Yanks that the only way they
will get a home run here is to hit
the ball into one of the upper

Siren Sounding for 2 Minutes
Replaces Blast Raid SiqnuIs

The District this afternoon Off
cially abandoned the air raid warn
ing signal it's equipment has nev.
been able to sound.
Commissioner Young, as civilian
defense co-ordinator of the Wash
ington metropolitan area. formally
replaced the old blast signal with
one that could be sounded by the
city's 38 electric sirens.
The old signal called for five short
blasts, repeated three times. Sirens,
which give off fluctuating sound,
are unable to make a short, sharp
noise.
Signals to Fluctuate.
The new signal, described in the
official order, follows:
The sounding of an electric siren
for a period of two minutes dura-
ton, consisting of a f1uctua ting sig
nal of varying pitch; each fluctu-
alton is to extend over period of
approximately six seconds"
A complete f1uctuation begins
when the siren is first turned on and
Evening star., 1942-04-10

ends when it reaches it's highest
pitch The order did not provide for
it, but officials explained that there
would be a slight pause between
each fluctuation. The exact num-
Der of fluctuations that would be
fitted into the two minutes was
not stated, but with each one last
ing six seconds, the number would
be something less than 20 if there
is to be a slight pause between each.
Signals to Be Used Tuesday.
The all-clear signal will be con-
tinuous sounding of the siren for a
period of approximately l minute
40 seconds
The signals will be used for the
first time in Tuesday nights black
out.
The District probably will get a
third signal when the AZ horns on
order have arrived The electric
sirens then will be used only when
the horns are out of order That
third signal undoubtedly will go
back to the short blasts.

Norden Bombsight
Still Secret From
Nazis, Navy Asserts
Manufacturer Denies
Germans Know of
U. S. Instrument
BY the Associated Press.

by lUt n ESSOCldleO FIeSS
NEW YORK, April 10.-With
Navy permission it was revealed
today that the deadly Norden
bombsight, one of the most val
liable of wartime instruments
possessed by the United States, is
still a secret from the Nazis.
Theodore H. Barth. president OF
Carl l.. Norden, Inc, closely guarded
manufacturers of the instrument
said there was no truth in frequent
rumors that the Germans had got
ten possession of the secret. These
rumors have gained circulation since
Herman Lang, former Norden
foreman, was recently sentenced to
18 years in prison for dealing with
the enemy.
The bombsights which have been
captured from the Germans are
crudely made devices and have not
the slightest resemblance to the
highly perfect Norden sight, Mr.
Barth said He also said they had
suspected Lang and kept him under
constant day and night watch for
three years before his arrest.
"As for Lang memorizing con-
struction details" Mr.. Barth said
Il helped design the sight and I
can't remember them
Mr.. Barth revealed that the late
Capt. Colin Kelly used a Norden
bombsight to sink the japanese bat
tleship Haruna.
