Belfast sport writer lists things for natives to look for in baseball games between American soldier teams in northern Ireland:
 1.-The curve the pitcher can get on the ball as he throws it at high Rpeed.
 2-The accuracy and speed of the throwing. Watch the catcher take . pitched ball behind the batter and throw 1t right across to second base to head oil runner trying for stolen base.
 3.--Sliding into base, the runner will rocket himself into the bag at sull length to make the fielder stoop to touch him with the ball when this IS necessary to put the runner out.
 This might help the Brooklyn Dodgers.
 Ulster descriptions of games give you an idea of how baseball looks to . total stranger.
 Each fielder wears a glove on the nOn-throwing hand, and nearly all catching is done with the gloved hand" 1t Is pointed out.
 Describing match" in Belfast between Kentucky doughboys and a club of men formerly stationed at Fort Sheridan, H., native reporter Eeports:
 '.It is a real battle of giants, the burly players giving of their best 10 supply speed, thrills and sur- prises.

Four MlestOnes GO to Make Up Run; Scoring on Deferred Payment System; Irish See and Like
 Their First Baseball

'The Wildcat (of the Kentucky team) is swinging the stick like 8 cop in the Bowery. He drops his bat as if 1t were electric-heated, and hares away to the big blob of whitewash which marks first base. He has reached the first milestone of the four that make up run. The scoring's on the deferred payment system-by installmentS."
 Speaking of a coach: "A fat, com- fortable fellow in full kit. He's wan dering up and down the field like hen on hot griddle. He tells the boys when to run and when not to-. He's the brains of the outside edge"
 Catcher: Hes crouching on his hunkers, chest protector like a gi- gantic wasp's waistcoat, and the wired face guard like some Boris Karloff."
 Stolen base: srhe guy standing on first base slips of cutely and makes second base. A kind of gloves wicket-keeper at the base leaps like contortionist to catch the flying ball. If he'd got 1t first, the run sneaking guy would have been out. "
 Retiring the side: ''The first of the Kentuckians is struck out, missing his quota of three pitches. The second batter is run out, and the third also fails to impress"
 Baseball has impressed the Irish, however, as American soldiers once more take the game into new ter- ritory.

Southw0rth Sure"
 Of Cards In Series

St. Louis, Sept. 2S-(UP)-The happiest man in town today was genial Billy Southworth, manager of the St. Louis Cafdinals-cham- pions of the National League for the first time in eight years.
 "I know we have tough battle on our hands against those Yank- ees," Eouthworth said, "but I think we can beat them, maybe not four in row, but we'll win.
 How can I help but be confident with buch of boys on my club like these fellows? We had long and uphill fight, but to tell you the truth, I never had the slightest doubt about our ultimate victory and that's the way I feel about the series"
 Tanks @OnIy' 2-1
 Southworth's confidence in the club that clinched its senior circuit lag yesterday by beating the Cubs in the opener of 8 douAleheader, 9-2, for 42 victories in 50 games, was apparently shared by odds-makers. Early prices on the Cards coming clash with the Yankees in baseball's post season extravaganza have made the American Leaguers favor ties at the short price of 2 to l.
 Eouthworth's serenity was shared by jubilant bunch of Cardinals.

 New York, Sept. 28 - CUP.1 The major leagues closed the books on one of their most spectacular seasons today as the St. Louis Card. inals and New York Yankees took time out two days before sQuaring oil in the world series on Wednes- day.
 Although the diamond campaign began this year under the oninous shadow of war, with military lleedG cutting into player personnel, ths dramatic triumph of the CardinaI over the Dodgers in the National League and the Yankees second successive victory in the American League. gave promise of the most colorflil series in years.
 The Cards great stretch drive 43 victories in the final 51 games ended a climb from second place, 10 games behind Brooklyn on August g, to the championship at Sports mans park yesterday. The Cards won doubleheader from the Chi- cago Cubs, 9-2 and Al, and clinch- ed the flag via Ernie Whites i've. hitter in the opener. The twin win lfet the Cardinals final margin over the Dodgers, who beat the Phils, 4-3, at two games, while the Cubs duph. cated last years, windup by fin~ ishing in sixth place.
 Warmeke Blasted
 Veteran Lon Warneke started against his former teammates for the Cubs but was knocked from the box by a four-run Cardinal bar- rage in the fifth that overcame ( ol1e-run handicap and put the ReG Birds in front to stay. St. Louis added four more in the seventh to sew it up.
 Brooklyn's triumph over the Phils gave them a season total of 104 vic- tories, the largest number of wins registered by second -place aggre- gation since the Cubs finished run ner-up to the Pirates in 1909 with the same total. Dixie Walkers third hit, single. drove in what proved to be the winning run in the sixth as the Phils wound up the season again in last place.
 The Pittsburgh Pirates won two from the Reds, S-7 tl2 innings) and "A, to finish in fifth place while Cincinnati wound up fourth.
 Mel Did Well
 The Boston-New York double header was cancelled, the Giants winding up in third place in Mel Ott's first year as manager. The Braves finished seventh, the spot they occupied last year.
 In the American League, the In- dians defeated the Tigers 80, at Cleveland to clinch fourth place by two games over the Detroiters.
 Tex Hughson won his 22nd yic- tory as the Red Sox shaded the Yankees, 7-6, in the only other game played. The Red Sox finished second, nine games of the pace.
 The doubleheader between the third place St. Louis Browns and sixth-place Chicago White Sox was cancelled. Washington, which fin- ished seventh, and PhiladeIphia, which finisehd last, were unsched- uled.
