iby Naugatuck Game Today Postponed Until Tonorou
DizzyDeon Still Thinks He Con HurI
By MILTON HICKMAN

l
 New York, Oct. 3E(UP)-The in- comparable Dizzy Dean, who broad casts the Cards and Browns home games, believes he still has lot of stuff left in his trusty right arm. He admits he's not as fast as he once was, but he still owns the "oP confidence"
 Two Brownie infielders were de- batting over who had the stronger arm one night just before the sea- son ended when Dean walked into the dugout.
 Dix, resplendent in a canary-col- ored jacket and chocolate-hued trousers, said to one of the inf1eld- CTS:
 why, I'll give you two-to-one odds that I can throw farther than both you guys" Disagreement One Brownie player immediately disagreed.
 "I'll tell you what I'll do," said Dean, pointing to the right-fleld screen in Sportsman's Park, which is BIO feet from home plate. we'll both throw to that there fence five times. If I hit it more times than you, I get $125, and if you hit it more times, I'll give you $250."
 The Brown player swallowed hard when he heard Dean mention money
 we'll" replied the player to Dean, I've got to see you throw first"
 "Whaddaya' mean" countered Dizzy, I'm not askin' to see you throw, am IF"
 The player kept on insisting so Dean picked up @ baseball, hurdled out of the dugout and let fly in the direction of r1ght-fleld. The ball landed almost 100 feet short of the fencel
 "Okay," rejoiced the player, sec 1ns bsE Diz7y's poor heave' you got a
 wen throw tomorrow" added the player.
 Lets throw now" said Dean con- f1dently.
 "Nahh," said the player cautious ly, "the wind is liable to hinder my throwing" | Tf 1t flinders you, it'll hinder me, too," shot back the graying Dis. Besides" continued Dean, with considerable reason, the wind is liable to be blowing tomorrow, also"
 T don't know if that's such 8 smart bet" said the player, dubious ly.
 Dig saw he. was getting nowhere and snapped disgustedly:
 Well, I can't waste all night down here. I gotta get up in the broadcasting place and go to work. !"
 Before disappearing under the stands, Dean called out: "I'll take you out to the golf course some day and give you five stroke spot"
 You gotcha' self a bet" the player yelled back.

Bates Next For rinity
(By UNITED PRESS

Football goes into full scale pro- duction at five Connecticut colleges this Saturday. Two teams-Wes- leyan and Trinity-are making their first appearances on the field, while the three others-Yale, the Uni versity of Connecticut, and Coast Guard-are continuing the pro- grams they opened week ago.
 The setup will be Trinity vs. Bates at Hartford; Yale vs. Colgate at New Haven; Wesleyan vs. Swathmore at Swathmore, Pa; University of Connecticut vs Spring field, at Storrs, and Coast Guard vs. Amherst at Amherst, Mass.
 The game arousing most interest at this point Is the Yale-Colgate play. Coach Howie Ode1l has put his varsity combinations through severe drills, among them an ap- plication of Colgate's double wing formation, preparing the players tor their first real battle of the season.
 Odell is expected to take the wraps of the team Saturday and fans may see lot of action from Levi Jackson, the Negro player who was responsible for two touchdowns last week when Yale took the Kings Point Merchant Marine Academy for win of 33-to nothing.
 Fans Interested
 The Coast Guard Amherst game also has fans watching closely for the New London team was in top form last week and scored an upset with it's trimming of Rensselaer, Polytechnic Institute by a score of 33-to-nothing
 Both Wesleyan and Trinity are unknown factors, and the coming games may foreshadow the general pattern of their performances throughout the season. For both, Saturdays games will be the begin- ming of the first fulltime schedules since the war. With the quality of each team an open question, no guesses are being made about possible outcomes of the games.
 The University of Connecticut is expected to put on good show at Springfield, it is predicted that if the players follow the form they had last Saturday-when they al- most scored a win over Harvard they will have an easy time of 1t.

Columbus, O., Oct. - (UP) - Big Ten Conference and Ohio State University officials today branded as "unfounded" two eastern educators charges that big college football buys and sells it's players in "a hu- man slave market"
 President Paul E. Douglass ot American University, Washington D. C., charged that day by day young men come to the auction block for sale to the highest bid der" His statement was seconded by Robert V. Fletcher, chairman of the American University Board of trustees.
 That's just so much nonsense, '' said Kenneth L. (Tug) Wilson, Chi cago, athletic commissioner of the Western Confernce.
 ''The bidding is bitter, determin- ed, violent and interruptions, ? Douglas declared. "The country is ridden by agents and scouts direct ed by coaches who receive salaries higher than university presidents, ''
 Wilson said the statement that college football players have turned professional Is entirely unfounded. '
 The universities in the Western Conference are operating on an honest, non-paid player basis and l believe this policy is being adhered to in most parts of the country" he said
 "In the Western Conference, and I believe elsewhere, football coaches do not receive more pay than col- lege presidents" he said. They re- ceive much less in the Western Conference, about the same as the deans and department heads.

New York, Oct. 4 - UP) - Brooklyn's cup of grief overhowed today with straight Wry."
 There were few faithful willing to rally around the traditional Flat bush cry of wait til next year" :" but there were ever so many more who just couldn't understand why Howie Schultz couldn't have smack ed that homer with the bases loaded yesterday in the dying moments of dying cause.
 It would have been 6 baseball miracle to be sure, but Dodger fans had come to expect the impossible in this year of years for F1atbuSh. The fact that relief pitcher Harry (The Cat) Brecheen came in to strike out Eddie Stanky and Schultz to end the game and give the St. Louis Cards an to victory which put them into the world series was what filled that cup of grief.
 For here were the Dodgers, 100 to l longshots to win in even the most conservative book, trying to win 8 ball game in which they had started the ninth inning behtnd, 8 to 1. Nice Pitching
 They hadn't gotten hit since the first inning off Skinny Murry Dick son, and only one player had man. aged to hit a ball into the outfield.
 Up came Augie Galan, world series veteran and master at dis regarding past performances. Like the others, he had been unable to touch Dickson's Slinky curve, but now he stepped into pitch he liked and sent it to right center for a double. The 31 ,437 fans Sent up a ripple of polite applause, glad for the gesture at least against the in- vincible Dickson.
 Dixie Walker, the Dodger clutch man didn't help matter any when he sent 8 toy fly to Terry Moore, but rookie first baseman Ed Stevens stirred few hearts when he tripled to deep center to score Galan. Carl Furillo aroused 8 few more with 8 single which scored Stevens.
 Then 1t became apparent that Dickson was no Superman after all nc Was JuSI SOOQ plGCIleT WOTK- ing the greatest game of his career and tiring pretty fast because of a bad cold. He was rattled when he uncorked 8 wild pitch that sent Furilo to second and he even upset Cardinal Manager Eddie Dyer a little when he walked Peewee Reese.
 "The Cat" Shaky Dyer, unwilling to surrender 8 pennant won innings ago, called on Brecheen and "The Cat" started out shakily by letting rookie Bruce Edwards score Furillo with a single that sent Reese to third. Cookie Lavagetto, pinch-hitting for kid pitcher Harry Taylor, walked to fill the bases and then Brecheen cut out the foolshness. The next two batters were Stanky and Schultz, each representing the tying run at the plate.
 The left handler from Broken Bow, Okla, left the Dodgers broken and bowed by giving those two bat

 Club officials said that Root, who became manager here in 1945, was released ito enable him to make another connection in baseball"

Straight Wry' OverfIows BrookIyn's s Cup of Grief

ters all he had. It was only 8, dream anyway, but nice one while 1t lasted. Through the night in the Flatbush bars and chowder houses folks kept bringing up the fact that Schultz had hit 8 homer in the first playoff game at St. Louis "so why couldn't he do it again in Brook lyn?'
 For the Cardinals, there were re- newed hopes that they would go into the world series against the Boston Red Sox at the peak of their efficiency, playing the kind of ball that had been expected of them when they left the post last spring as the shortest priced pennant fav- orite in major league history.
 Of most importance was the fact that they were hitting again and that they were smacking the ball for extra bases. They collected four triples and two doubles and made 25 hits in all in the two unprece- dented playoff games against Brooklyn.
 Moore Misses Homer
 Stan Musial got a double yester- day and triple in the first game at St. Louis. Erv Dusak, Dickson, and Enos Slaughter smashed triples yesterday while Terry Moore lash ed ground rules double that would have been good for homer in most major league parks.
 
 The Cardinals know that the Red Sox are relaxed and ready. They have been on anything but a joy ride in their hectic drive to subdue the embattled "Bums" but Man ager Dyer thinks they are going in- to the first game of the series Sun day definitely on edge"
 It might be quite a battle at that.
