Dodger Series
 All IIEven Now FeIIer'Hot

FeIIer'Ho New York, Aug. 1. (UP)-Look- ing nothing at all like the man who had been called dour Eddie Dyer, Cardinal skipper grinned crossed his fingers and hoped that the bat rattling triumph his boys had just turned in over the Dodgers was the turning point of stubborn slump. The Cards, clomp-clomping in from the diamond in their spiked shoes, had overpowered Brooklyn, 10 to 3 with 15-hit attack that included four triples and two dou- bles. They still trailed the Dodgers by 21a games but from the shout ing and back-slapping they might just as well have won the World Series. When it finally got quiet enough to hear a bomb drop, Dwyer re- counted the dismal road record of the club in seven previous games on the current trip and discovered that the Cards had made as many runs in this game as ln all the others combined.
 Marion Reflects Spirit
 Overlooking the extravaganza he said that this may be what we needed-now maybe we can start that drive"
 Shortstop Marty Marion, author fo the National Leagues player retire ment plan, was talking about his conversation with podger Hugh Casey after the relief hurler had bruised his posterior with a fast pitched ball.
 q said to him, what are you try ing to do, Hugh pension me al- ready?"
 Int remark reflected the spirit of the team. The boys were care free and wise-cracking again, and Dyer thought it was a good sign.
 Hit Long Balls
 A better one perhaps, was the way they teed off on Dodger rookie ace Joe Hatten, for four runs 1n the fifth inning. That was more runs than they had made in any entire game on the road trip to date, and they were scored on long blows. Red Schoendiemst tripled, Fry Dusak doubled, Stan Musia! was hit by pitched ball and George KurdowsN tripled. Enos Slaughters long fly scored Kurow- ski. The Cards continued their as- sault on relief men Art Herring and Casey, whoile Murray Dickson didn't have to work very hard to win his ninth game against three defeats
