For Q while the guy with the double Saw'' had quite Q thrill for his money, as he got 3S to 1 but the ii-inning Cardinal win, tossed away by the Browns, cost him chance to win much for little .

Honest c. Joe
By JOHN A. CLUNEY

Though he is Q Btaff sergeant, just returned from 2 months overseas, worlds heavyweight champion Joe Louis Barrow is as honest In his opinions outside the ring aS he is against any gloved foe inside what tho resln-duSt sniffers of another day would continually refer to aS tho "hempen strands" (ropOs, to y0use, EgbertD. However, Joe is as bad or worse than Babe Ruth when 1t comes to remembering 0 persons name after five minutes subsequent to Q meeting or introduction, which spoils the meat" of his return story concerning two Tank soldiers he had boxed in Italy who are definite threats to his million.dollar title, Joe admits; adding that he could not remember their names, but was sure the ring fans would hear plenty about hem after the war.

Oddities Of Series Ended
By FREDERICK Q. oTHMAN


 St, Louis Oct. 10 - ((U,P) - The world series is over and all Is right again today with the world. l don't have to listen anymore to Mrs Mary Ott neigh like horse.
 don't have to consume any more cold hot dogs for lunch in the upper grand stand, or watch those basebailers establish anymore strike-out records. Ninety-two strike outs there were in the series ana every time one of those babies swung his bat, he nearly broke his back, It was painful to watch.
 For Q while, ct least, l won't have to eat my dinner with sports writers. These are estimable citizens and on the whole their table man- ners are good, but you know what they talk about while they eatP Baseball. Only baseball.
 I wont nave to cringe everytine an army bomber zooms too low over the grandstand, or stuff my ears against a fat man singing into a microphone, "Cuddle Up A Little Closer, Baby Mine" I won't have to dodge foul balls sent my way by a baseball player named Al Zarilla, who seemed to have a private grudge against me. q never met the man before in my hfe)
 From now on can stay out of big league dressing rooms; maybe I even can forget the sight of the heroes of our national pastime in their underwear. I won't have to watch the Cardinals celebrate any, more victories on lemon soda pop. Can you imagine that? Big strong men, guzzling pop. And skipping everybody on the back and if you've ever been slapped by Walker Cooper you'll know about that.
 won't have to sit for two solid hours on a slat in the upper press box, or listen to that virtuoso, Doc Harrison Weaver, the Cardinal trainer, Harmonize on his arnica bottles. Neither will I have to try to get Luke Sewel to tell whats the matter with the Browns and watch him scratch his naked middle while he tries to think up a diplomatic answer.
 A press agent, who claims all good baseball players niunch vitamins and wants me to write an item about this alleged phenomenon, win forget he ever knew me. So will all the gents who wanted free box seats to ail games.
 No, sir, I never did see such a beautiful morning as this one. AS for Agra. 0tt, the only lady baseball fan Wi1n auun6n mnFa llbe horse

St. Louis, Oct. 10 = (U.P) - The St. Louis Browns hangover today reflected the most dismal double play in baseball hiStory-rags"to" riches-to-rags.
 The three-play relay came yester. day when they blew the sixth and final game of the i044 world series to the Cardinals, Bel, to climax 0 season that saw them soar to the heights.
 The gang of castoffs from the big time and the little time had laugh ed in the faces of the experts who put them far down in the second division in preseason predictions the ragamuffins whom they all said would be lucky to finish in seventh place -.
 The finish reminded them of on. ohter unhappy experience. It rolled back the baseball newsreel to lO2z when the 13rownies kicked over Q final game and pennant-to the New York Yankees.
 The final hour of the Cinderella series struck with the oncoming dusk last night.
 There were tears, in the showers just like you would expect.
 But Manager Luke sewell said that he had no regrets.
 His boys, he added, did the best they could. Maybe they had Q few tough breaks, but that's baseball.
 Next Year7 Someone said with 6 grin that could be taken almost any way you want, thta there was another year coming and another world series.
 ''xes, we'll face another year. And I hope we will be sip there on top again.

Little Billy Booe
 YoIe Point Kicker

New Haven, Conn, Oct. l0-Most football coaches are mighty per- turbed when teag have to oveTH,pgk any of their charges and that is just the way Howie Odell, youthful Yale mentor, feels about it-that is. with one exception.
 The lad ne would like to overwork is little Billy Booe, a five-foot, six- inch, i40-pound freshman civilian from Shelton, Conn.,, who Is fast es- tablishing himself as a speciality ex- pert.
 Booe is the sandy -haired bespec- tacled kid who kicks the extra points for the Ellis and every time he trots out onto the field 1t means that the Bulldogs have punched across another touchdown.
 To date, he's made three appear ances in the historic Yale Bowl hard by the banks of West River and each one has been an example of placement perfection.
 Against Coast Guard Academy is debut was an anti-climax perform ance as he split the uprights to give the Bulldogs their seventh point in e last quarter surge which erased e 3 to 0 lead held by the Cadets.
 After Cornell had taken a 2 to o lead last Saturday the Yales push- cd across the equalizing touchdown. and Booe---in his calm and un- concerned way-tied up the game, and then made things really tough for the big Red eleven by convert ing the second Yale touchdown.
 At present that's ell Booe does kick extra points-but he's working hard for the day when he can be c regular back. odeli isn't 90 sure about this-but Iie does admit that nlliB 6 handy little fellow o have afnllna.
