Algiers, Nov. 5. - CUP The
French National Committee Of Lib
Grafton announced today that France
will not consider herself bound by
any Anglo American-Russian de-
cisions affecting Germany unless her
representatives are allowed voice
in deciding those issues.
In a blunt bid for an equal place
with the three major Allies on the
newly created European commission,
the French committee implied that
any Armistice arranged by their AL

garded as binding on French armies.

The committee, headed jointly by

The European commission which

er the Detroit Lions, IS to IA, in
a National League football game
before a crowd of $4,000.
Unleashing the most diversified
attack they have shown in years
the Packers completely dominated
the play and seldom used their
ace pass catcher, Don Hutson, in
anything but decoy rolls. They
counted twice in the first quarter
after marches of AZ and 81 yards,
went rs yards for a score in the
second period, marched 81 for their
fourth counter and 50 for the final
marker. The Packers also tried
three field goals, but without sue
cess.
Detroit pushed across both touch
downs on plays that swept the
length of the field. The first Lion
score came on two plays that were
good for 80 yards and the final
marker came in the closing min
utes on forward and lateral COM
bination that ripped off Is yards.

The World Champion Washington
Redskins opened their 1943 cam

Baugh, showing the passing skill

BY CHARLES DUNKLEY

SPORTSMAN'S PARh, st. Louis,
Oct. 1O.-lR-The triumphant New
York Yankees, eight times baseball
champions of the world, are get
ting ready to lay their hands on
the lions share of a record $448,-
OO5.74 World Series swag. And
they like the prospect very much.
Marius Russo, 29year-old left
handler, was the whole show on
the ball field and the whole show
in the Yankees dressing room.
George CTuck Stainback, the
Yanks' centerfielder jumped on
top of trunk and yelled; This
is Russo day; all honors go to
Russ
Manager Joe Mccarthy and all
other Yanks were warm in their
praise of Russo's pitching effort in
holding the Cardinals to seven hits
and hurting what would have been
shut-out Jail if it hadn't been for
the fielding lapses behind him.
.That was as well pitched
game as I ever want to look at, y
said the veteran Catcher Bill
Dickey.
Mccarthy dropped YEARLY on a
bench in front of his locker along
side of his coaches, Earl Combs,
Art Fletcher and Johnny Schultz.
Putting on big black cigar, he
said:
Eyes sir, Russo pitched a great
ball game-a helluva game. He
was good and strong all the way
through. He pitched just as /
expected him.
"Y'know what the break of he
game was? 1t was in the eighth
inning after Stan Musial singled,
when Frank Crosetti made that
stop behind second on Walker
Cooper's hit. If the ball got
through, Stan Musial would have
gone all the way to third on the
hit and might have scored on
Kurowski's fly"
But Mccarthy, with his team
needing only one victory to cinch
the championship, refused to smile.
Hell, it isn't time to smile yet, i"
he grunted.
Coach Schultz, cutting loose with
a blood-curdling yell. raised the
index finger of his right hand.
"'That's Just what we Want-one
he beloved.
Russo, whose ailing arm had
only rounded into form in the fad
ing weeks of the season, said 1t
gave him no trouble at all.
ut was loosey-goosey all the
way" he said.
you're not much pitcher; you're
just a good hitter" Reserve Out
fielder Bud Metheny yelled gag
ging about the two doubles Russo
blasted to lead the Yankee attack.
Mccarthy said he felt it was a
mistake to announce his pitching
selection in advance Of the game,
but that his choice fer tomorrow
was Spurgeon (spu0 Chandler,
who upset the Cardinals in the
opening game, AZ.
Some one called: Amy chance
you'll change your mind, Joe?"
"There's only one guy who gets
a guess Mccarthy retorted. And
that's me-"
"Its Cooper tomorrow" Manag-
err Southworth said tersely as his
