BEHIND
HOME PLATE
BY H. S. DOUGLAS

Another World Series has come
and gone, but it was one that will be
long remembered, for 1t made the
New York Yankees the first club IN
the history of baseball to win the
Series five times in succession.
A lot has been writtensand IS still
to be written-about the 1858 Series,
but in my book it can be summed up
in one manipulating
At field and at bat, there was little
to choose between the two teams,
but when it came to pitching, the
Yankees had a decided edge.
In the opening game of the Series,
the Dodgers manager, "Chuck"
Dresser, saw his plan of using Carl
Erskine in three game fly out the
window when Erskine was knocked
cut in the first inning of the first
game, and he received another body
blow when Preacher" Roe, who has
to have at least five or six days rest
lost the second game.
Dresser called on ErSkine again
in the third game, and you all know
what a marvellous job he did-not
only winning the game, but creating
a new Strike-out record.
Billy Loes kept the Dodgers in
the Series when he won the fourth
game, but from then on, all that
Dresser could do was put names in
hat and just hope that the one he
pulled out would get by.
Smithsburg won the final play-off
in the Washington County League on
Sunday afternoon, three games to
one, when they were awarded the
final game in the best three-out-of-
five series by the forfeit score of go
when Williamsport was only able to
field seven men.
In the Independent League, An
tietam won the final play-off, two
games to one, on Sunday afternoon
when they took the measure of Sc
curity in the last game, the score
being 1915.
The final play-off in the South
Mountain League got started on Sun
day afternoon, when Gapland beat
Funkstown in the first game in the
best two-out-of- three series by 9
score of So. The second game will
be played on Sunday afternoon al
Gapland
The hard hitting Allegany High
School Eleven took the measure OF
the Hagerstown Hubs at the Stadium
on Friday night by a score of 20-6
Allegany scored two touchdowns
in the first period, and the third
came in the fourth period, while the
Hubs lone score crossed the chalk
mark in the third period, when Gift
fin, one of the Hagerstown Ends
raced 20 yards for the score.
The Allegany team, which is con-
sidered by many to be just as good
as their 1948 championship eleven
was much the best. They had Is first
downs against the Hubs 6; made 2O6
yards on the ground against Hagers-
towns 81; and gained 48 yards
through the air, while the Hubs coulc
only get IS. Only in punting die
the Hubs have the advantage, hav.
ing an average of 80 yards for
punts, while Allegany's average wa,
25 for 4.
The Hubs fifth game, against
Montgomery Blair, will be playec
tomorrow night at the Stadium
game time being 8 o'clock.

Exclusively Yours--- BETTY ''%-s

The Charles Carroll Glovers
gave their two annual garden
parties this week end and
while it has rained for every
thing else that anybody has
wanted to do for the past
six weeks, only one drop
threatened the first party and
then thought better of it and
disappeared as quickly as it
had fallen. That any one
could select in advance two
perfect afternoons out of the
rainieSt six weeks since 1889
indicates, it seems to me, that
they have been living right.
There were over 800 at each
of the two mint julep parties

day, but the numbers were lost

Prince Georges Moves to Bar

Bottle clubs. suppressed in the

County.
The County Commissioners
yesterday ordered an ordinance
drawn up to bar the clubs. And
the community of Colmar Manor,
fearing it could not keep the
clubs out by legislation, slapped
a $2,500 fee on them-enough,
the town officials hope, to dis
courage the clubs from locating
there.

Lancaster asked the commission
erS for an ordinance designed
to prevent this type of business
from becoming a part of our
county"
He said the clubs have proved
to be a menace. "They are ex-
tremely difficult to police and
are a breeding place of crime"
Commission Chairman Thomas
E. Latimer said he thinks an

operate profltably in the nearby
community.
He said Colmar Manor already
has IL liquor establishments.
The towns population is about

from Colmar Manor, has three
liquor places.
Mayor Torvestad said one

preached him about renting a
vacant store site in Colmar
Manor. He discouraged the club,
he said.
If the clubs are willing to pay
the $4,000 fee. Mayor Torvestad
said, they might operate until
the fee period ran out. Then
the fee could be increased, he
pointed out.

Court TO Hear Appeal
Challenging Law on
Dogs in Arlington
BY the Associoted Press

RICHMOND, Va, Sept. g.
Virginia's Supreme Court of
Appeals has agreed to review a
case questioning the power of
police to regulate and control
dogs on private property.
The case came to the high
court on appeal from the Airing
ton County Circuit Court which
last February "a fined a bulldog
owner $25 and costs after he had
been found guilty of violating a
county. dog ordinance.
1t. Col. Marcus R. King, $40
North Abingdon street, the
owner, was convicted on a
charge of keeping on his prem
ises a dog which on September
26, 1851, attacked Ann Marie
Wynne. 6, of 612 North Abing-
don. The child was bitten on
the face.
Bitten in Yard.
The attack repeatedly occurred
in the fenced back yard of the
King residence after the child
and other children entered.
Col. King admitted the allega-
tions, but contended the warrant
itself is invalid.
In his petition to the supreme
court, he questions whether the
Arlington County Board has
power under the law to make
it unlawful for an owner to keep
a dog on his own premises when
the right is granted by the Cen
eral Assembly in the dog code"
Owners Case.
Col. King contends the State
code prevents only the keeping
of unlicensed or mad dogs, and
that it authorizes a person to
keep a vicious dog "if it is neces-
Sary for the protection OF life
and property"
He contends, too, that the
Arlington County ruling would
make it unlawful for an owner
to keep a dog which had evi-
denced disposition to attack a
burglar breaking into his mas
ter's home.
while police have the power
to regulate dogs running at
large" the petition stated, "the
presence of a dog on ones own
premises presents an entirely
different legal question"
The petition noted civil suit
for $77,899 is pending in Arling-
ton Circuit Court.

Girl Freed on Charqe
OF Falsely Reporting


A 18-year-old girl who accused
five teenage youths of purse
snatching Saturday was freed to-
day after Assistant United States
Attorney Kenneth D. Wood de-
cided not to charge her with
making false report.
At the same time a 14-year-old
boy who said he found her purse
in a market was turned over to
juvenile authorities for investi-
cation.
Elizabeth Chiffon of the first
block of Anacostia road Sc.
early this week identified two
youths, but afterwards it was
proved they were out of town at
the time of the reported purse
snatching.
Miss Chiffon told police last
week end she went to the Green
way Shopping Center on East
Capitol street a few blocks from
her home to buy groceries.
On her way home, she said,
the youths molested her, she
dropped the groceries and dis
covered her pocketbook with
$14.95 was missing.
Mr.. Wood declared today,
after a hearing, that there was
not enough evidence to press a
false report charge but that Miss
Chiffon said nothing today about
being beaten.
