Brothers Turn In Stellar
Show Despite Fathers
Death
STADIUM. Ne,

YANKEE STADIUM, New York,
Oct. 6.-lRHIn a stirring drama
the full story OF which was un-
known to most of the 68,5 fans,
big Morton Cooper pitched the St.
Louis Cardinals to 4 to victory
over the New York Yankees in
the second game of the World Sc
ries today, only a few hours after
the sudden death of his father.
Mort and his brother, catcher
Walker Cooper, learned of their
loss late this morning, just before
they led the Redbirds back into
this big concrete arena to seek
atonement for yesterdays 4 to 2
opening triumph by the Yanks.
Under these tragic circumstance
es Mort went to the mound with
calm courage and proceeded to
prove that he is the great pitcher
that his record in the National
league for the last two years had
indicated.
He suppressed the Yankees on
six hits, none Of them for more
than one base until the ninth in
ming, allowed only one walk, and
hurled himself out OF trouble on
the few occasions he found him
self in a jam.
1t was great show that erased
all the black marks which had
been placed against him for two
failures against the Yankees in the
1912 World Series and two losses
to the American league in All-Star
games.
In contrast to yesterdays hum
ty-dumpty performance, the other
Cardinals supported Cooper with a
thrilling hitting and fielding dis
play in which Martin Marion and
Ray Sanders stole the Yankees
thunder by hitting two crashing
home runs in the early innings
against Ernie (Jumbo) Bonham.
The only hit by either team IN
the first three frames was Marion S
smash into the lower stands in the
left field corner on Bonham's first
pitch in the third.
Then the Redhirds ripped over
three more runs in the fourth on
sharp single to center by Stan
Musial, sacrifice by Walker Coo
per, single to center by George
Kurowski which brought M us a
home without even drawing a
throw, and Sanders line d riv e
homer into the lower right field
stands.
This bang. bang, bang trim g
against Bonham brought the Yam
KEGS bullpen rushing to action,
but the big Highlander steadied
thereafter, allowed only two more
hits and famed a total of nine
men before being removed for a
pinch hitter in the eighth inning.
Altogether the Cardinals made
only. seven safeties off Bonham
and Johnny Murphy, who pitched
the final frame, but they were ex-
plosions which left the New York
Bombers stunned until the ninth.
The Yankees tried to get back
into the ball game in the fourth
stanza when frankie Crosetti pop
ped a single over Sanders head
on an attempted bunt raced to
third on a single by Bill Johnson
and scored on a fly by Charley
Keller.
But the one real threat they
made to Cooper was on their last
turn at bat while hundreds of fans
were crowding into the exits. John
son. who also made two hits yes
terday, led off with a double to
left and Keller followed with a
tremendous triple over left-fielder
Danny LitWhiler's head.
This caused Manager Billy South
worth to come trotting onto the
field for a hasty conference with

frowned upon public mention of the
fact that she was Miss De Havil-
lands sister.
The two sisters were born in
Toxic, of British parents. From the
time of her birth Joan was living
on what physicians called borrowed
time. When she surprised the med
icos to the extent of reaching her
second birthday, they said she might
survive in a different climate. Con-
sequently, the mother took the two
girls to the United States and settled
in Saratoga, a small town so miles
from San Francisco.
Joan did manage to survive but
that was her only response to the
effect of the salubrious California
climate. She had the measles. She
came down with the mumps. She
suffered acutely from all the ills
children are heir to.
While "Livvy" was romping with
the other youngsters and growing
into a healthy tomboy, Joan was
progressing from one minor or ma jor
ailment to another. It was thor
oughly discouraging and when Joan
was Is her mother followed the ad-
vice of physicians, who thought
sea voyage might do her good, and
permitted her to visit Japan.
The sea voyage and a year of
schooling in the strange land she
didn't remember had a remarka BILE

she was far from the sickly young

him a powder puff because he wore
wrist watch. Men who don't know
him are quick to believe that Taylor
is not real herman. The very alb
sence of scandals and torrid ro-
mances in his life is seized upon by
such critics as confirmation of this
idea.
The long delay in determining
ice has accentuated this group criti-
cism.
Taylor has kept to himself and re-
fused interviews for some time Now
with the clarification of his status
and the imminence of his induc-
ton, he has eased up and is his good
natured self again.

will come within three weeks after

told me, 1T will be the last for me
until the war is over. I'm anxious
to get going. I don't care where
they send me. Any front where I'm
stationed is all right with me, but

Il don't expect any leaves for six
months, perhaps not then, and !
will not be back for long enough
to do any film work"
He seemed quite definite about
that, not only because it is in ac-
cord with known policy in the
United States, contrary to the Brit
ish custom of allowing actors
leaves to make films, but because
he seems resentful of past delays
because of film making.
Taylor's rating as lieutenant G.g)

obtained more than a year before
the war began, and his college edu-
cation. His close friends say that
he applied for rating as an ensign,
but the Navy decided on the higher
rating because of his qualifications

Joan Persevered
And Triumphed
Over Setbacks
HOLLYWOOD

AASAAASA = VVOS~s
In winning career for herself in
motion pictures, Joan Fontaine has
upheld the best traditions Of the
American success story.
Had Miss Fontaine failed in her
quest for film fame, she'd have let
those time -honored traditions down
badly. AS it happened, she has
come through handsomely as an
example of perseverance triumph
ing over handicaps.
Imost everything but poverty was
against the girl who won the
Academy of Motion Picture Arts
and Sciences award for the best
performance by an actress during
194l. She was handicapped by ex-
tremely poor health as child and
young girl. She developed whop-
ping inferiority complex as a result
of illness. Finally, she was the
younger sister of a beautiful screen
star, and as such seemed destined
to remain in the semieclipse of re-
flected glory.
1t was enough to make frail
SAl ole oV IlOIllC Will llCA lCaNAAA5
and her brooding. Miss Fontaine
did that for quite spell. Then
suddenly she snapped out of it and
began turning her handicaps into
advantages.
Reading Her Balm.
AS sickly shutin. she had done
an abnormal amount of serious
reading. She found it had given
her a knowledge of literature and
arts few women, let alone girls of
her age, possessed. 1t had also de-
veloped her imagination.
She began a scientific campaign
to become healthy, and as her
strength grew, the success of her
sister, Olivia de Havilland, became
inspiration and challenge, rather
than an overshadowing handicap.
IF Livvy could do it, can too,"
became her mental slogan.
At the time Miss Fontaine won
the award, she was sharing her
sisters dressing room at Warner
Bros, the latter's home lot, and
starring with Charles Boyer in "The
Constant Nymph" That was far
cry from the early days of her
budding career when she took the
name Fontaine because she was de-
termined not to capitalize upon
Olivia's fame but to succeed on her
oWn-or else. In those days, she

foreign star to take part in radio
show televised from Paris. and sung
in London for the jubilee of King
George v.
When she appeared at recent
bond rally a Chicago executive bid a
million dollar bond to hear her
sing The Last Time I Saw Paris"
In an hour and a half she collected
over three million to raise funds for
the new cruiser Chicago.
There are other prettier singers,
many with better voices, and even
better figures perhaps. What is
there about Hildegarde, then, that
electrifies a noisy night club into
complete silence? Is it the terrific
contrast with which she whips up a
program, mixing naughty songs with
sad, melancholy ones-singing each
with equally intimate abandon?
Swathed, Suave Personality.
Watching her float about a room
in that lifting way of hers-her
swathed costumes seeming an in
SCpdl dOlC pdlU vi VIC pei
there's something indefinable about
her appeal. She stops suddenly and
points to a patron by the ringside.
"Ah, what a beautiful chapeau! l
always say: Rich or poor, it's nice
to be rich" Or pauses at a table to
smile insinuatingly-not too insinu-
atingly-at captain, saying, Good
evening. Having a good time, cap
tain?'
But before any one gets to feeling
this is an evening for flippancy, the
lights go low and reflectors on both
sides of the piano keyboard bathe
her face in a pool of pink lights as
she sings in hushed voice III Fol-
low My Secret Heart"
Up on the wall large silhouette
of her tilted nose and slender neck
fascinate those who can't see her

At Meeting

A. c. Petersen, president Of the
Builders Association of Metropol-
itan Detroit, was awarded the
number one builders license for
1943 at the association meeting
held in the Statler last Wednes-
day.
Residential builders in Detroit

corporation and securities commits
sion and to receive the number one
license is an honor. This year
Howard Warner, commissioner, es-
tablished new precedent in
awarding the annual licenses. A
decision was made 10 award each
year the number one builder s
license to that builder who had
made, during the previous year, an
outstanding contribution 10 the
building industry. In making the
presentation. Warner pointed "a
the significant fact that the Build
erS' Association had suspended its
rules TO re-elect Petersen president
and freeze him in that job for the
duration of war housing activity
This was done, he said, because OF
the unselfish effort and drive
which Petersen had furnished to
the end that Detroit's war housing
lob be successfully completed.
