Win String Extended
AT Cards Expense !
In Torrid Tuss|e
BY the Assoeiofsd Press

Lanky Ewell Blackwell's sensa-
tional 16-game winning streak is at
an end.
Brocklyn's Dodgers, with IL straight
successes, have the baseball world
buzzing.
The National League leading
Brooks won their 18th straight in
st. Louis in as thrilling q game as
played in many = season. Few Of
the 81, TOO fans will forget it.
The game, which lasted through
10 innings and 81 hours and ended
lilo. had all the thrills of a World
Series encounter.
The Dodgers opened up a 100
lead against Harry Brecheen and
Red Munger in the first four in
nings.
The Cards, aided by Whitley
Kurowski's three-run homer, caused
a mild stir by scoring four times in
the sixth to knock Ralph Branca
from the hill. So things remained
until the last Of the ninth and 1t
appeared all over as Relief Pitcher
Hank Behrman quickly retired two
Of the first thre men to face him.
Cards Club Way to Tie.
Then Chuck Ddering, Stan Musial,
Enos Slaughter and Ron Northey
slammed successive singles to bring
In three tallies and knock out
Behrman In favor of Hugh Casey.
The veteran fireman Jared no bet
ter than Behrman. Kurowski walked,
Marty Marion singled and Pinch
hitter Del WILDER also singled to
drive In three more runs and dead
lock the game at 1910.
The Dodgers roared back in the
top Of the 10th. With one out,
Gene Hermanski doubled and after
Bruce Edwards had made the Sec
ond out Peewee Reese came through
with a ground ball single between
third and short to send Hermanski
home with the payoff run.
The triumph increased the Dodg-
ers' flrst-place margin over the
Cards to nine full games, and st.
Louis now is in third place, one
percentage point behind the New
York Giants, who broke Ewell
Blackwells string of 16 wins in q
10-inning 5-4 game.
The New York Yankees stretched
their American League lead to 11h
games over the runnerup Red Sox
of Boston by defeating the Detroit
Tigers, 8-5, while the Red Sox
bowed to the Cleveland Indians,
1877.
The Chicago White Sox downed
the Athletics, 80, in a night game
in Philadelphia.
Pittsburgh and Boston divided q
double-header, the Pirates winning
the opener,;.5-3, and the Braves
fbouncing back to take the nigttcap
8-5.
After taking 1t on the chin 1a
times in IA meetings with the Chi
cago Cubs, the Philadelphia Phils
broke loose with an 1l-hit attack
against three Bruin hurlers to win,
90, in Chicago.

Coast Trains
Held Up by Shortage
NProper Equipment
BY the Associoted Press

NEW YORK.-Through coast-to-
coast trains are definitely in the
future transportation picture despite
the seriousness of current obstacles.
Highest hurdle to be surmounted
Is the railroads lack of adequate
equipment to sustain such service.
Relatively few new cars of the
type needed for transcontinental
trains have been delivered. Until
these come in volume, and none
will predict just when that will be,
don't look for through trains across
the continent.
Operating problems-the meshing
of schedules east and west of Chi
cago and st. Louis gateways, pro-
vision for motive power and train
crews-can be met with less diff
Guilty.
Present through service is limited
to individual cars operating by way
of Chicago, west of which the lines
fan out and offer the traveller a
variety Of routes.
One New Route Probable.
W1lcll tIdllSCOllIlllcllCdl III dlllS dlC
scheduled, many of them will follow
the Chicago course. But at least one
new route has been listed as a
probability.
Pennsylvania Railroad officials
said consideration had been given
to the operation of through train
over its line to st. Louis, thence
over the Missouri Pacific and Texas
81 Pacific to Ell Paso and Southern
Pacific to Los Angeles. They
stressed, however, that this was one
of many possibilities and that there
was no near prospect of its estab-
lishment.
Such route, which includes that
used by the Sunshine Special in
hauling through cars between the
East and a number of Texas cities,
. would amount to slightly less than
$500 miles, New York to Los An
geles. Most of the through cars now
operated cover from 3,100 to more
than 3,400 miles in crossing the
continent.
Project Long Discussed.
Transcontinental trains have
been discussed as logical next step
ever since the railroads starting
Evening star., 1947-09-11

cars now on order are designated
specifically for service on mtra-line
trains.
Since the individual roads are ma
turally anxious TO provide the best
equipment for their own well-ad-
vertised luxury trains, these needs
probably will be met before there is
a willingness to contribute equip
ment for transcontinental service.
Another difficulty is that while
the roads can add a through car or
two to a well-known train without
destroying its identity, for several
roads to convert entire trains to
transcontinental service probably
would involve changing the names
Of the trains so converted.

sending individual sleepers through
without change nearly 18 months
ago.
At that time top passenger OFF,
cials said extension Of the program
to operation Of entire trains would
depend on equipment availability
and on evidence that demand not
only would be sustained but would
be concentrated on specific sched-
ules.
Part of this test has been met.
Many of the through cars are sold
out well in advance. And the roads

are heaviest on the better" trains,
those with new equipment and fast
time schedules.
An idea Of the equipment required
for transcontinental trains may be
gained from the fact that to sustain
one train daily in each direction the
railroads must keep eight trains IN
operation.
Eight Trains for Each One.
Thus, for each alternate route Of
fered to a traveller on a daily basis,
another eight trains must be added.
A consideration that may delay
the scheduling of through trains,
even when equipment is somewhat
more plentiful, is that many Of the
new sleepers, diners and lounge
