To Replace Yogi Berra
As Yankees Catcher
By Burton Hawkins
Star Stoff Correspondent

BROOKLYN, Oct. 4.-Brook-
'lyn's Dodgers, hauled back from
the brink of World Series defeat
by one timely hit which evened
the series at two games each yes
terday, returned to the familiar
setting of Ebbets Field today in
tent on grasping a lead before
going back to Yankee Stadium,
scene of two humiliating defeats
by the New York Yankees.
Little Vic Lombardi, battered from
the mound in the second game of
the series, may try again today for
the Dodgers, who surged back into
contention yesterday as Cookie
Lavagetti delivered dramatic last
ditch double with two on base to give
Brooklyn a 80 victory on the only
hit registered off husky Floyd (Bill)
BevenS.
However, shortly before game time,
it was reported that Rex Barney
would get the assignment.
Frank Shea, who pitched five
innings in the series opener, yielding
only two hits, was to start for the
Yankees.
Shea, a rookie righthander, was
yanked for a pinch hitter in that
game during the course of flve-run
rally by the Yankees.
lombard Was Mauled.
lombard, 5-foot finch left
handler, was mauled for five runs and
nine hits in his initial appearance
against the Yankees, when New
York's Allie Reynolds went the dis
tance to capture 1913 victory.
Indications we're that Manager
Bucky Harris of the Yankees would
supplant Yogi Berra with Sherman
Lollar as New York's catcher.
Berra had permitted five stolen
bases and was we'll en- route to be-
coming the series goat" following
Al Gionfriddo's theft of second base
with two out in the ninth inning
yesterday.
Stage Was Set.
That set the stage for an inten-
tional walk to pinch-hitter Pete
Reiser and Lavagettos subsequent
double off the right field fence, scor-
ing Gionfriddo and Eddie Miksis.
Manager Burt Shotton of the
Dodgers was prepared to 60 along
with Carl Furillo in center field.
Reiser, injured in the third game,
still was nursing badly swollen
ankle as the result of collision at
second base with Shortstop Phil
Rizzuto of the Yankees.
Prospect of perfect weather was
expected to bring another capacity
crowd of $4,000 to the Dodgers lair.

The agreement with the distillers,

White House, was the committees
first major move in support OF Mr..
Truman'S voluntary "self-rationing"
plan designed to save 100000, 900
bushels Of grain to help feed West

difference between this areas esti-
mated reed-570,0 100000 bushels

Mr.. Luckman estimated that the
emergency will last anywhere from
4 to 10 months.
Adoption of the plan by all dis
tillers would mean "a saving Of
100000 bushels of grain a month";"
Mr.. Luckman said. This would be
mostly corn. An institute spokes-
man said some wheat Is used to
flavor rye whisky, but a Publicker
official said distillers "do not use any
wheat" except in emergencies.
