Dodgers in Spot
Open 2-Gume Series
In Milwaukee With
End of Race in Sight
BY the Assoeiafsd Press

The Brooklyn Dodgers, the
culprits who kept the Braves
from winning it, are going to
give Milwaukee fans a chance
to see the National League pen
nant clinched.
It could be tonight. It might
not be until tomorrow. And, of
course, if the Braves are really
inspired. the brewing center
population may not get to see it
at all, since the Dodgers are in
town for only two games.
But since an eventual Brook
lyn victory ranks close behind
death and taxes as a sure thing,
the Dodgers almost owe it to
the Milwaukee faithful to win
right in front of their eyes.
Z Out of 9 for Dodgers.
It has been in Milwaukee that
the Dodgers have done the most
damage to the Braves. They
have won seven of nine starts
at the Braves new County Sta
dium. The Braves topped them,
6-5. at Ebbets Field.
The magic number" for the
Dodgers is two. Any combina-
ton of two Brooklyn victories
and Milwaukee losses will seal
the deal for Charlie Dressen's
club and a Brooklyn victory
either tonight or tomorrow auto
matically would mean a Milwau-
kee loss.
The Dodgers could have had at
least a half-share in the pennant
nailed down before moving into
Milwaukee, but they slipped up
in Cincinnati yesterday and lost,
6-5, in II innings. The Redlegs
battered three Brooklyn pitchers
for 18 hits and finally won on a
gift run in the 11th. With the
bases loaded and none out, Glenn
Labine walked home the winning
tally.
The Dodgers broke two home

Injuries Wreck
Redskin Hopes
Against Lions
Several Key Players
Still May Be Out at
Start of League Play
By Lewis +. Atchison

The Pittsburgh Steelers not
only gave the Redskins a bad
physical beating at Columbia,
S. c., Wednesday night. but they
also may have knocked them
clear out of the 1853 National
Football League title race.
The lengthy list of cripples
all but dispelled any hope of
whipping the Detroit Lions Sum-
day at Buffalo in the Redskins
fifth exhibition game of the
season. They could use a VIC
tory, having won only one of
their first four games.
Several key players are on
the injured list, particularly
Halfbacks Harry Gilmer and
Hall Haynes, and there is a
possibility that the Washington
eleven may start the season with
only 80 players-three under the
limit.
Knee Cartilage Torn.
Gilmer has badly torn knee
cartilage that needs plenty of
rest and probably will require
surgical work later. Haynes has
a fractured wrist. Fullback Chuck
Drazenovich, the third most Seri-
Gus casualty of the Steelers game,
should be all right with week
or 10 days of rest. Drazenovich
had an internal hemorrhage in
the thigh from a heavy blow.
Halfback Andy Davis, who
missed the game because of a
dislocated shoulder, could miss
most of the season. Davis faces
the gloomy prospect of either
undergoing an operation to cor
rect the trouble, or the misery
and inconvenience of having the
shoulder popping out of place
during the season.
Ed Berrang, veteran end sent
home from training camp with
an injured knee. also faces an
operation.
LeBarOn Needs More Rest.
DR.. Robert E. Pete) Moran,
team physician who examined all
of the players yesterday, said
Eddie LeBaron, the first regular
hurt this season, still needs more
rest. LeBaron suffered a con-
cussion in the opener against the
Rams and injured his knee
against the Forty Miners. It
could be touch and go with the
game little 170-pounder the rest
of the season, which is more bad
news for the undermined Red
skins.
Meanwhile, Coach Curly Lam
beau sent the squad through a
workout today at American
University, stressing defensive
tactics Harry Dowda will re-
place Haynes at the left wing,
but \ with only one day to
get ready for the powerful Lions
he'll be at a decided disadvan-
tage. Rookie Alex Webster will
take Gilmer'S place at the safety
position and should do all right.
Dowda has seen service there
before.
The situation is so bad that
Bill Dudley. who signed as a
player-coach merely for kicking
purposes, worked out on defense.
There is an outside chance that
Dudley will play against the
Lions, If needed.
The Redskins will fly to Buff
falo tomorrow, departing at $50
am. by chartered plane and will
work out after their arrival.
They will return Sunday, leaving

because they are a superior offensive ball

But one of the boys in our shop, recov-
ering from a mild statistical binge, was
saying today, Zone record Brooklyn won't
break is for hits in one season. If the
Dodgers do top it, they'll have to average
26 hits a game from here out"

In Flight by B-36

A parasite" jet fighter has
been flown from and retrieved
by a mother" B-36 plane.
The Air Force, announcing this
last night, said it marked the
first known accomplishment of
flying a full-Size combat air
craft from q mother" plane
and added both aircraft had
notifications which enabled
them to take off and land as a
single unit.
The Air Force yesterday re-
leased for the first time photo

provide a formidable merger Of
speed, range and killing power.
The basic object of this prof.

Costs Can Be Lowered

to say about lower farm income
and higher cost to producer. Also
that we can make money if we

about antelope In the northern

hundreds of them.
1t is getting almost impossible to
raise cow feed; plant some corn and
they will be in it daily, cropping
it down as fast as it grows. And
run in grain fields just like a band
of sheep. Seems a shame that a
person cannot do something about
it when they run all over his own
decided land.
On top of that, in the fall of the
year when hunting season opens,
a person has to. spend several days

and obtain proper and complete
training in their chosen field as well
as those wishing to become lawyers,
etc.
AS to the mention of people with
two years of college work 10, 20, 80,
40 years ago and now becoming
teachers in Montana, either too much
is said or not enough. There cannot
be very many in any case and 10 or
20 years ago wasn't really in the
dark ages. A man named Conant
was college graduate over so years
ago and is today regarded as the top
man in the educational field at the
present time.
What business or profession or
trade do you know of that is i'm
proved in any way by lowering
standards? I don't believe the list
would be very long. America has

What to do about a. new-fOund
pound seems to be the question.
One girl asks: SHOULD l starve
myself for the rest of the summer?
Should l go on diet of black cof-

Heavens to Betsy-what's all the
excitement over a little pound here
or there. So many books have been
written about dieting and stream
lining the figure that couple OF
ounces begin to look like fat-lady
circus proportions to some kids.
1t is perfectly natural to gain
a few extra pounds during the sum-

GUS exercise is likely to make us
ravenOus. AS soon as school begins
and worries about calculus and
French take the upperhand again,
pounds will roll off no doubt. In
the meantime, relax.
If pounds exceed normal weight
by four, there is something you
might do just to make that bathing
suit fit smoothly for the balance OF
the summer.
