Ry LEO II. PETERSEN

ST. LOUIS, Oct. 2. (UP)-Ihe ST.
Louis Browns carried the American
league pennant into the world series
Monday for the first time in history.
The Cinderella boys won it the
hard way, nosing out the Detroit
Tigers by a one-game margin on
the last day of the season. They will
go into the series opening Wednes-
day with their intra-city rivals, the
ST. Louis Cardinals. under-dogs, but
no one who saw them whip the New
York Yankees in four straight
games was selling them short and
with fans the country over, they will
be the sentimental favorites.
LONG, HARD FIGHT
The fight that won them the
Browns first world series gold since
the American league began operat-
ing in 1901 was magnificent. They
went down to the last day to win,
and, as they had been showing all
season long, they had what it takes
in the clutch. No one, including
their manager, Luke Sewell, could
class them great club, but they
have fight and courage.
Everyone OF them was hero to
all the others and outstanding of
these heroes was Chet Laabs, whose
two home runs provided the power
to down the Yankees Sunday in
Sportsman's park in the game that
meant gold and glory. The score
was 5 to 2.
It was % years ago that the
Browns made their first serious bid
for an American league pennant.
They lost then to the Yankees by
one game. So it was satisfying that
the Yankees were the victims this
year. At Detroit, the laSt-place
Washington Senators gave the
Browns the assist they needed by
defeating the Tigers-With whom
the Browns were tied when the last
games started.

Browns Win Out
After 43 Years

the Browns are at their best. And
they had one other advantage Sum
day. When they took the field the
scoreboard showed that the Sena-
tors were leading Detroit, 3 to 0.
But they were jittery for the first
three innings, throwing the ball
away and practically handing the
Yankees two runs. 1t wasn't until
the fourth that they showed the
stuff of which champions are made.
BY that time the Senators were
leading, to 0, with the Tigers at
bat in the last of the ninth. To
the cheers of more than $1,000 fans
the largest crowd ever to watch
the Browns play at Sportsman's
park-Mike Kreevich opened with
a single to left. Up stepped Laabs,
a .230 hitter and part-time ball
player and war plant worker. He
caught hold of one of Mel Queens
hard, high, fast ones and dumped
it among the spectators in the left
field pavilion to tie the score.
DELIVERS GOODS
After that Sig Jakucki, s. and
l0-cent store pitcher until the war
drained major league ball clubs of
many of their players, closed the
scoring door on the Yankees.
With two down in the fifth
Queen once again faced Kreevich,
and again Kreevich singled. Laabs
again stepped to the plate. And
again he put the ball into the pa
vilion, scoring two more runs. That
would have been enough, but just
to make things comfortable, Vernon
Stephens hit home run in the
eighth off Hank BoroWy, the
Yankees leading pitcher whom Nc
Carthy had sent in to relieve Queen
after Laabs second homer.
1t was Jakucki's 18th victory
against nine defeats, while for
Queen it was his third defeat
against six victories. Both clubs got
six hits.

The defeat was a Misunderstanding
one for Nelson a top-flight star
