MCCARTHY Seen
REASON FOR
YANkS' SUCCESS
BY PAUL SCHEFFELS

NEW YORK, Aug. 10-UP)-
Eulogies have been fashioned about
countless members of the New York
Yankees playing personnel, but for
some strange reason manager Joe
McCarthy-the one man responsible
for the greatest portion OF the
Bronxites' success-has never come
in for his deserved recognition.
The Yankees opened their last
Western invasion at st. Louis today
with the 1943 American league pen
nant practically seWed up. They
held nine game margin over the
runner-up Washington Senators
and an 11-game edge over Chicago
and Detroit, the other first-division
teams, and the New Workers are
strictly an outfit hand-tailored by
the bench.
PLAYER MONOPOLY"
Any time-and it's been often
that the cry of Break up the Yam
KEGS" has been raised, it's been di-
rected against the Yankees ap-
parent monopoly of all the game S
greatest players-with no thought
given to the keen managerial mind
of Mccarthy.
War, with it's drain of players for
the armed services, leveled the
Yankees off to a par with the rest
of the circuit. The men Mccarthy
lost to the services-Joe Dimaggio
Tommy Heinrich, Phil RizzIto ano
Charlie Ruffing-would have made
a flag winner of any club.
True, the American league is no
longer loaded with such sluggers as
Ted Williams, Hank Greenberg and
Johnny Pesky, and the keen COM
petitive edge has gone to leave a
generally lower all-round standard
Never-the-l McCarthy's master
full work with what he's had-and
it's been no more than the rest of
them-has produced another jug
gernaut that is well on the way to
spread -eagling the field.
GIVES UNDERSTANDING
There are currently two or three
shining players to whom Mccarthy
has given a deep understanding of
the basic principles of the game
because he has an enviable ability
to impart knowledge to any player
who comes Under his tutelage and
is willing to learn.
Take Johnny Lindell or Nick
Etten, for example. Neither was
Much" as a player before Nc
Carthy cast him in his mold. Lindell
came up from Newark touted as a
pitcher and was a miserable fail
ure. Yet Mccarthy saw the max
ings of hitter in him and patient
ly converted him into an Outfielder
Lindell was up among the leading
hitters of the league for most OF
the season and lately has shown
signs of emerging from the sudden
slump that gripped him.
Etten was another beautiful bust
With the AS and Phillies, Nick had
never found success, but under the
eye of Mccarthy he has developed
into a worthy hitter. Already he
has been compared TO Lou Gehrig as
Yankee Guardian of first base
which is the highest type of flat
terry.
The Yankees play at st. Louis and
Boston invades Chicago in a night
game in the only contests sched-
uled today in the Major leagues.

Ring-wise F'rizzie Zivic ranked to-

demonstrating conclusively that de-

Yuqosldyion Front

The situation in YugOSlavia became
very confused this week with serious
clashes breaking out between the Par
tisan forces of Gen. JOSip Broz, known
as Drug Tito. and the Chetniks of Gen.
Mihailovich both of whom fought the
common enemy, the Nazis

blamed on German intrigue which aimed
at convincing the Partisan or Commu-
mist faction that the Serbs were in
volved in an intrigue with the Nazis,
while disrupting unified action by all
Yugoslavs failed to halt successful war
fare against the Germans.
1t was reported that the vital rail line
connecting Belgrade and Zagreb had
been cut at 1870 points over a distance
of 40 miles. Bridges were destroyed, more
than 1000 telephone poles cut down and
four trains were wrecked. This mas
served to hamper materially the dis
patch Of fresh Nazi troops seeking to
wipe out the resistance in Yueoslavia.

Italian Front

yesterday 1t was announced that units
OF the American 5th Army had captured
Mondragone, western anchor of the Ger
man line barring the way to Rome. The
successful outcome Of the effort to crack
this strongly fortified point was due in
part to excellent coordination of at
tack during which American naval
units steamed into the Gulf of Gaeta to
lombard Mlnturno, we'll behind Mondra-
gone. The Nazis, perhaps fearing an
other leapfrog attack which would
catch them between the foe in front of
them and an an.Hhibious force landing
IN the rear, were forced to look to their
path of escape and were required to
withdraw from the anchor of their
strong line north of the Volturno
Up in the mountains other units of
the 5th captured Pietravairano and
pushed on in an effort to break through
and turn the German line back toward
the coast.

European Front

Generally. last week was quiet week
IN the air warfare against Germany and
the comparative calm gave the Germans
time to pause and consider and the con-
ClusionS drawn by their observers gave
no encouragement of better days ahead
Berlin fears now that a tWo-Way air
attack Is about to open against their
industrial areas with Britain based
bomberS continuing their smashing
campaign in the west and Italian based
planes blasting at Austria and the in
dustries which moved inland to escape
the destruction which roared in from
the west. tWo-way squeeze is on and
the NaziS are not happy about it.
Indicating how complete is Allied
mastery of the air and how all-inclusive
is the bombing campaign, Sunday was
marked by the following raids:
Mosquitoes bombed targets in the
Ruhr and Rhineland.
American Marauders attacked three
airfields within a 60-mile radius of Paris
Vienna and other points in Austria
were hit
Tirana, capital of Albania, was bombed.
1ncendiaries and pamphlets were
dropped on Western Hungary.
Various targets in Italy were attacked.

occupied Greek islands were given a

about behind the German lines, are
adding to the panic which is overtak-
ing the enemy as they seek desperately
to eXtricate themselves from the trap
which is slowly closing about the many
divisions in the Dnieper bend and in
the Crimea.
Yesterday it was said that three
Russian armies are moving on Nikopol
in the lower Dnieper area and that two
others were advancing west and south
of Melitopol.
At the latest report, Perekop, bottle
neck for the escape of the Nazis still in
the Crimea with it's single track rail-
road, was only 60 miles from the rap

AS the week opened the Germans threw
more troops into the battle in an effort
to delay the Red progress until the
menaced forces could be Withdrawn
from the Crlmea. BY Monday the Reds
were within six miles of Krivoi Rog, the
iron and rail center which is the key
to the path to Kherson, possession of
which would close a mighty sack on
hundreds OF thousands of the enemy.
All week long the Russians smashed
ahead on the entire front, killing and
capturing many Germans, gathering in
large quantities of equipment which had
been abandoned and freeing dozens of
communities which had been long under
German occupation.
BY Saturday badly disorganized en-
emy was in danger of encirclement

threw many tanks into a bitter DELAYING

Withdrawn from Italy and France and
from Germany were being rushed into
action as the giant pincers movement of
the Russians became menacing. Appar-
