Lanier Apt 10 Get Call
Over Cooper as n. |.
Champs Starter
BY CHARLES DUNKLEY,

EN- ROUTE TO NEW YORK, Oct.
4.-Joyously happy, those rampag-
ing young st. Louis Cardinals today
were rolling toward New York,
supremely confident of defeating
the Yankees in the World Series,
which opens in the Yankee Stadium
tomorrow.
They awaited with keen interest
Manager Billy SouthWorth's pitch
ing choice for tomorrow, positive
that he would name either Max
Lanier, a lefty finishing his best
year, or big Morton Cooper, a right
handler who won 81 games.
Southworth promised to reveal his
choice before reaching New York.
He said he wanted to wait until the
condition of every pitcher was de-
termined.
Winning that first game is i'm
portant," he said. YOU can't afford
to make any mistakes in a short
series. I'd like to win four straight,
if we can"
Swing Is Toward Lanier.
A few days ago 1t was consid-
cred certain that Missouri-farm-
born Cooper would be the starter.
Within the last "a hours, however,
there has been a definite swing
away from Cooper to Lanier. South
worth joined that swing by saying
that the strength of the Yankees
was in their left-handed batters-
Nick Etten, Bill Dickey and Charley
Keller.
The 20-year-old Lanier has a l943
record of Is victories against 7 de-
feats. To indicate that he is ready
Lanler in his last five appearances
has pitched four complete games
and allowed only one run in each
In the other he appeared as a relief
pitcher to save a game against the
Chicago Cubs.
He is capable of throwing a great
curve ball and also possesses a re-
markable fast ball. He appears tc
be best in critical games. He ap-
peared twice as relief pitcher in
the 1912 series, relieving Cooper both
times, and winning the fourth game
Musials Ankle in Trim.
Stan Musial, 22-year-old right
fielder and the National League bat
ting champion, is showing no i'll eff
fects from his weakened left ankle
twisted in last Fridays game. He
tore around the bases with the speed
of jackrabbit after pinch hitting 6
single yesterday.
Harry Brecheen, left-handed pitch
er. is making the trip, but may MOI
see action. He is suffering from E
| l00-degree temperature as the result
of a tooth extraction and a severe
cold. Southworth had considered
Brecheen good enough to start.

Associated Press Sports Writer


Unlike a year ago when the St
Louis Cardinals didn't clinch the
National League pennant until the
last dav Of the season, the finale Of
the 1943 baseball season yesterday
decided only third place in both
major leagues
Although beaten by Cincinnati, 6
to l, the Brooklyn Dodgers took
third money in the senior loop when
the Phillies, idle for three days, up
and dealt the fourth place Pitts
burgh Pirates a double defeat, 3 to
l and II to 3.
Cleveland nosed out the fast
closing Chicago White Sox for third
in the American League by beating
the Philadelphia Athletics, to 4,
in II innings. The White Sox wal
loped the Boston Red SoX twice, 4
to 2 and to l, for their 18th victory
in 18 games, but finished half a
game behind the Indians.
The championship st. Louis Car
dinals and New York Yankees
finished their tune-ups for the World
Series by again beating the Giants,
5 to 4. and the Browns, to 2. This
gave the Cards 105 victories for the
season, only one less than last year,
and marked the first time in 80 years
a National League champion has
repeated with more than 100
triumphs.
Lowest Yankee Winning Mark.
The Yankees wound up with 9S
victories, the lowest for the eight
American League clubs Joe Nc
Carthy has piloted to a pennant.
Dizzy Trout of Detroit pitched the
Tigers to 4-to-1 victory over Wash
ington and joined Mort Cooper Of
the Cards, Spud Chandler Of the
Yanks, Elmer Riddle of the Reds and
Rip SeWell of the Pirates as the only
2O-game winning pitchers for the
season.
The Chicago Cubs and the Boston
Braves divided twin bill, the CUBS
winning the opener, 7 to 0, on Hi
Bithorn's four-hit pitching and the
Braves the nightcap, to 2, behind
Rookie John Dagenhard.
Thus ended Americas second War-
time campaign, begun in doubt in
the spring, but winding up distinct
success despite the loss of such stars
as Joe Di Maggie, Ted Williams,
Johnny Mize. Terry Moore, Enos
Slaughter, Charley Ruffing and
Johnny Beazley to the armed
services.
Other than the Cardinals early
clinching of the pennant and the
Yankees late July rush after barely
holding on to first place on July 4,
the season was marked by player
revolts at Brooklyn and among the
Phila ladelphia Phillies.

be significant, too, that George led
the league in scoring runs.
His squirt i'll the final two days
of the race to shake off the bid of
Chicago's Wally Moses to succeed
him stamped him as a gilt-edged
champion, for Case was stealing
bases when he shouldn't have been
playing. In the last two games of
the year. however, George stole five
bases.
Case Game Under Pressure.
After pulling a muscle in his left
leg Case stole nine bases. When
the White SoX came to town Moses
was leading Case by one steal, but
Case thefted three bases in one
game to 60 two up on Moses.
Case wasn't supposed to play after
that. He had damaged his leg badly,
but when Moses pulled up to tie
him George couldn't stand it. He
merely requested to be placed back
in the Mats lineup on Saturday
night. He stole two bases in that
game, then added three more yes
terday.
Case also collected three hits to
finish among the leagues top five
hitters for the second consecutive
year. He inserted a double and
two singles in leading what attack
Washington displayed against the
Tigers.
He stole second base after beat

Catcher Dixie Parsons whipped him

Detroit fashioned a run in the
