CHICAGO, Oct. 7 (AP).-
The White Sox' 10 victory over
the Dodgers yesterday marked
the 14th time in World Series
competition that a game has
ended 10. The score last
occurred October Z, 1857, when
the Braves blanked the Yankees
behind Lew Burdette in the
fifth game of that series.
The White Sox made a
habit of winning the one-run
decisions during the regular
season. They posted a 35-15
record in that category. but
only three of the victories were
10 games. Early Wynn, Barry
Latham and Bob Shaw pro-
duced the triumphs-all COM
plete games.
The Dodgers Gil Hodges
collected the first triple in the
series yesterday. He played in
124 National League games in
1859 and hit only two three
baggers.
Junior Gillian of Los Angeles
tied two series records by get
ting four singles yesterday. His
four, hits equaled a record
shared by % other players, with
Cleveland's Vic Wertz last turn
ing the trick in 1854. Gillian
also became the eighth player
to deliver four singles in a game.
The last player to accomplish
the feat was Wally Moses of
the Red Sox in 1916.

LOS ANGELES, Oct. Z (AP)
Dick Donovan, the smiling
Irishman," was full Of Jokes
and laughter as he bantered
with reporters in the White
Sox clubhouse after the fifth
game of the World Series.
Why not? Rarely had a
pitcher been called into more
tense, more precarious situa-
ton than that faced by Dono-
van yesterday. He came in to
protect a 10 lead against the
Dodgers with the bases full and
only one out in the eighth
inning.
And nobody ever turned in
a more courageous perform
ance in such a dramatic situa-
ton than did this 31-year-old
Highlander, who had relieved
only once in the last three
years.
All the Quincy (Mass) native
did, with series riding on every
pitch, was retire the ever
dangerous Carl Furillo on a
puny pop fly to Third Baseman
Bubba Phillips and dispose OF
Don thinner on a routine fly to
Leftfielder AL Smith.
Record Crowd Dismayed
In the ninth, with the score
still 10, he needed only seven
pitches to turn back the last
three Dodgers, to the dismay OF
a record-breaking crowd OF
92,706.
Donovan had every reason to
be happy, carefree and at peace
with his fellow-man.
But it hasn't always been so,
Donovan, in his ninth year in
the big leagues, has had more
disappointments and frustra-
tons than the average ball
player.
He recalled the time when
the Braves, in their first year
in Milwaukee 1889, suspended
him for refusing to report to
Toledo of the American Asso-
citation. He reflected about the
time when he disguStedly de-
cided to chuck it all and enter
the insurance business, after
Hopping with Detroit.
Turning Point in IS
And he remembered, best OF
all, the turning point of his
career.
1T was in 1855, my first year
with the White Sox," Donovan
recalled with a smile. 1T was
early in the season. The Sox
had bought me conditionally
from the Atlanta club. I was
determined this time to make
good. I knew it was my last
chance. If I failed, I was
through with baseball forever
No more minors for me-"
Manager Marty Marion
started him against Kansas
City. In the third or fourth
inning, Donovan couldn't recall
which, he was shelled for fouI
runs. Marion summoned a re-
