Rocky is q fast talker and usually
answers any question thrown at
him, but at one point during his
big meal last night he was at a
loss for words. That was when he
was introduced to j. Edgar Hoover,
FBI chief, who was eating at the
same restaurant. Hoover shook
hands with Rocky and said: you've
| paid your debt to society, Rocky, and
I want to wish you the best of luck.
Keep your chin up and do the right
thing, and you'll do all right"
Rocky wasn't able to say thing

he started talking again. Great

thing you say and twists it around.
He don't give guy break"
Rocky had plenty more to say
about the Horne fight. II say this
for Horne; he can take a good

at him last time, but he covers up

from fighting since July will hurt

The fact is, South Americans them
selves have only recently rediscovered
most of their own native dances. The
revival of folk dancing that began in
Europe and the u. S. 10 years ago
didn't reach South America till five
years ago. But Brazilians, Argentine
ans and Others promptly made up for
lost time, digging up more original
dance rhythms from their colorful past
than you could shake a hip at. Much
of South American dancing has Span
ish favor, but there have been strong
Indian, Negro and other influences, too.
In several countries, folk dancing is
government-sponsored; instructors are
sent out to teach children dances their
grandfathers knew but their fathers
have forgotten.

Boss Boudreau Calls Gene Beorden Hero
Of CIeveIond's Victory in World Series

Boston, Oct. 12-(AP)-Gene
Bearden, a carefree rookie with
ice water in his veins, is the
undisputed hero of Cleveland s
first World Series title since
1920.
I'VE owe it all to Bearden, -
said Manager Lou Boudreau al
ter yesterdays tingling 43 vic
tory over the Boston Braves for
the championship. "Give him
all the credit. That goes back
to the playoff game, too"
What else could the boss say?
The handsome southpaw, con
queror of the Boston Red Sox
in the pennant playoff game, had
just sauntered in from the bull
pen to save the series finale.
Starter Bob Lemon was rock
ing and reeling from the fury
of the attack of the Boston hit
tiers, hungry for the winners
slice of the money from record
crowds. The Braves had the
bases full with one away in
the last of the eighth,
trailing 4 to l. Then came Bear
den.
Pinch hitter Clint Conatser,
the first man he faced, sent Thur
man Tucker to deep center with
fly ball. Tommy Holmes tag
ged up and raced home, to make
it AZ.

son. Now it was 4-3.
Cody surveying the situation,
Bearden went to work on Mike
Mccormick one of the Braves
more dependable hitters in the
series. He came in with his
knuckler on the first pitch and
Mccormick bounced it right
back to the box for the vital
third out.
The eighth was over but the
Braves were aroused. Reliefer
Warren SPAIN blazed the ball
past three Indian batters. strik
ing out the side, and the Boston
Club hustled in for another crack
at that big winners pool of $3.50,
249 or some $4,000 more than
the losers.
Eddie Stanky, the best base
on-balls Wrangle' in the majors,
led off the ninth. Bearden got
him down to 80 and then lost
him. The tying run was on first
and the heat was on.
Southworth sent Sibby Sisti up
to bunt and replaced the hob
bled Stanky with fleet Connie
Ryan. With the top of the order
coming up next the. idea was to
get the runner to second.
Sisti bunted one foul. Then
he took a ball. The next pitch
he bunted again and the ball
popped into the air about 10 feet
high in front of the plate. Catch
er Jim Hogan made the catch
and fired to first base for an
easy double play Holmes endd
easy double play. Holmes ended

out.
Joe Gordon, held to three hits
in the first five games, helped
the Tribe to its early lead with
a home run blast off starter Bill
Voiselle that broke IL tie
in the sixth. They scored twice
IN that inning and again in the
eighth but Lemon could not hold
1t.
The Bearden of the final game
carried to the clubhouse on the
shoulders of his teammates was
not as sharp as the Bearden of
last Friday who shut out the
Braves, 20, on tive skimpy hits,
but it was Bearden at his best
in a tough spot,
A mere ball game can't bother

Japs torpedoed the U.S.S. Hell
ena. He still carries aluminium
plates in the head and left knee.
The Tribe double play com
binatlon of Joe Gordon and Bou-
dreau is the best in the game.
Time after time that pair around
second base choked off Boston
uprisings.
The Braves played poorly a.
field but in the final analysis, it
was the failure of the Boston
hltters in the first four games
that gave the championship to
the Indians.
Larry Dolby, fleet Negro out
fielder, led the new champs at
bat with .3l9 average. He had
to yield series honors to the
Braves Earl Torgeson with his
.389 mark. The only other regu
lars to make the 300 class were
Bob Elliott of the Braves, 1893
