DODGERS SHAKEN, BRAVES MOROSE
Reese Not Too Proud
To Back Into Pennont

MILWAUKEE,, Sept. % (R).-
The scoreboard challenged the
runnerup Braves to beat the
last brave Cubs today, but they
weren't up to it and dropped a
game that would have left them
in good shape"
Along about the second inning
the scoreboard registered Pitts
burgh 5. Brooklyn l." A Braves
victory would have erased their
one-game disadvantage in the
vital "loSt" column and put them
in front by a full game. ~
But they bowed to the Cubs,
5-4 in 10 innings, on a disputed
call at the plate. The loss left
them two percentage points be-
hind Brooklyn.
I'VE got enough help from
Pittsburgh" said Johnny Logan,
whose solo homer in the ninth
sent the game into overtime.
I'VE couldn't ask for any more
than PittSburgh's two victories
over Brooklyn. We've just got to
help ourselves. If we'd won to-
day we'd have been in good
shape"
Manager Fred Haney said,
This one we could have used
very nicely. 1t means We lost a
chance to go ahead and there's
one less game to play"
"Yes," Bobby Thomson said,
Time is running out. Just
when it looks like we can win
one that would make a differ
ence, we don't. That Sam Jones
was real tough out there,
though"
Jones, who shut out the
Braves in his last start against
them, was forced to leave in the
seventh because of p, a slipped
vertebra. He had given up only
two inf1eld hits.
Del Rice was still seething
about a call at home by Umpire
Bill Engelin in the 10th. Engelin
called the sliding Solly Drake
safe with what proved to be the
winning run. Rice. boiling, mad.
flung the ball to the ground and
charged the umpire. screaming
at him jaw-to-jaw. The rest of
the Braves infield joined in, to
mo avail.

Milwaukee today after the Dodg-
ers had lost again to the Pirates,
5-1.
The Dodgers, shaken by the
defeat, still were confident they
could bounce back behind big
Don Newcombe in tomorrow S

game will finish out their road

Luis Arroyo, the villain Of the
piece to the Dodgers, spent sew
eral minutes signing autographs
for Pirate fans outside the club
house.
Il was getting them out with
my screwball," the husky little
Puerto Rican said, holding up
the index finger of his left hand
to display blister caused by
the constant friction. Last win

Then came the ninth, and
Logan teed off on Lown for a
'lead-od home run. his 18th of
the season, to tie the score and
sent the game into extra innings.
Drake doubled to right center
to open the 10th and took third
on Hoak's bounder. Then Baker
lifted the fly to Aaron, and Drake
was called safe when Aaron's
throw to Del Rice was wide of
the plate.

THE BASEBALL
BEAT
By BURTON HAWKINS

BALTIMORE. Sept. 22.-Cal
Grifith's decision to extend the
employment of Chuck Dresser as
manager of the Senators merits
applause. And not necessarily
because of Dressen's knowledge
Of the game. It's simply a de-
lightful deviation from the weak
but generally accepted method
used by most club presidents to
erase themselves from the spot.
Firing the manager of a
chronic second-division club
wouldn't have prompted fans to
march in unruly style on Crit
f1th's fashionable home, demand
ing his neck. Chances are, pro-
tests would have been scattered.
Feelings of most fans. Judging
by meager attendance. would
have ranged from apathy to
mild surprise. Dresser has
worked no wonders. at least in
regard to elevating the club.
With the team mired in its
recent losing streak, the perfect
wedge was provided to pry
Chuck from his position.
But. happily, it didn't develop.
Firing Dresser would solve none
of the Senators major problems.
The man knows baseball and,
granted talented players. could
guide them into more enjoyable
surroundings.
Cal inherited a rundown club.
but if the eighth-place finish of
1855 partly was Dressen's re-
sponsibility some Of 1t had to
rub off on young Grifhth. Chuck
was his choice when Bucky Har-
ris was axed.
So vast we're the changes in

official family became imbued
with the idea that the team
could take it all. Honest. Then

You can't make q will If YOU
are too scared.
No doubt this sounds q little
peculiar, since one would think
q person could dispose Of his
property in any way he wanted
regardless Of circumstances.
What does being scared have
to do with it?
Legally speaking, fright has a
lot to do with it, if the fear is
great enough to result in Gin
competency"
Remember the case Of Mont
gomery Ward Thorne not so
long ago?
Ten days before he was found
dead in a Chicago apartment, the
young mail-order heir changed
his will in favor Of a 19-year-old
sweetheart. His mother, Mrs.
Marion Thorne, contested the
will in court and eventually sue
ceeded in having it set aside.
The reason: Incompetency.
Lack Of Ability
In the language of the law
yers, incompetency is a term
used to indicate the 'lack of
ability, legal qualification or fit
ness to discharge the required
duty"
Usually this means the incom-
petent person is one whose sanity
is impaired or who Is feeble
minded in one way or another.
But the Thorne case illustrates
how q person may become in
competent without being (tech-
nically) insane, feeble-minded or
physically stricken. Ordinary
psychological factors can, at
times, also result in incompe-
tency.
Chicago Circuit Judge Julius
H. Miner, who voided the Thorne
will, said all the evidence pointed
toward the young man having
been under great fears and APP
preheasion" in the final weeks
Of his life. There was some sug-
gestion, although no specific al
legation was reported, of para
noia during the period. In any
case, it was ruled Mr.. ThorneI
did not possess the legal COM
potency to make a will" He was
too frightened.
