YANKEE POWER TOO MUCH FOR GIANTS' NINE Yanks Crash Many Records In Winning World Series Tilt New York, Oct. 7 'U.R) — Joe McCarthy, who never played a big league baseball game In his life, hoisted the fifth world's championship pennant over his New York Yankee powerhouse today. There were some who doubted, 1 momentarily, just how much volt- ■ age those Yankee dynamos could, generate when the New York Giants, playing to a grandstand ■ packed with *8,427 cash customers in the final game of the world's I series yesterday, started off with I a two-run lead in the first inning.

■ quem-y with which the Yanks i shocked tin- entire American league Into submission this year was i soon into play and Bill Terry's boys were left gasping under u 13 to 5 score that gave the 1936 classic to the McCarthy team, by four games to two. Tin- Yankee wrecking crew, ' which already had amazed the statisticians by hanging up a new , world series record of 18 runs in one game to the Giants' 5. drove ■ home seven of their 13 runs yesterday in the ninth inning to clinch the chumpionshfp and break their own world record for last inning tallies. This was the second world championship to fall to manager ; McCarthy and it was witnessed by one of the smallest crowds of the 'series. Nevertheless, the crowd I brought the aggregate attendance |to 302,924. a record for six games, and the second highest figure ever I attained in any world's series. Yesterday's customers paid $169.1321 to see the Giants' electrocution I bringing the series total up to Jl.1204.399. just 13.456 short of the all-time high for world's series receipts in 1926. the Yankee f’ardinlal series. The Yankees crashed one record after another this year to ascend baseball's highest pinnacle, winning the American league pennant by the largest margin it was ever won by any team. 13 games. Swinging into the world s series they lost the first game to the Giants through a combination of rain, mud. and too much Carl Hubbell. On the next day they scored 18 runs against the National league pennant winners, five runs ! more than ever scored before in a world series game. Continuing their championship march, the Yankees took the next I two games but were nosed out of ■ the fifth game. 5 to 4. in 10 innings. Iby Hal Schumacher's stout-heart , pitching. In spite of a courageous rally -by the Giants in the last game yes- : terday. in which Bill Terry used ! batting practice pitchers, substitu- ' tes, old men ending their careers — all his available manpower — there was no stopping the Yanks ' who swarmed all over the Polo i grounds in the ninth to whang in . the greatest number of ninth inning runs in series history. In that historic ninth inning. 13 men catne to bat. seven crossed [ the plate in a finish unparalleled in world series history. Johnny Murphy, former Fordham star, rose to supreme heights with that blazing, last ball of his, allowing the desperate Giants only I one hit, and that a home run by Joe Moore, their left fielder, after ihe relieved Lefty Gomez in the seventh inning. Gomez, the 26-year-old. 520.000-a---year, southpaw who two years ago was acclaimed the greatest pitcher in baseball, at that time, came back with a flourish to get credit for two of the Yankees' four tri umphs. ———-—o Ralph Peterson Is Candidate For Team Muncie, Ind..

By MAURICB MERRYFIELO International Illustrated Newa Writer COLUMBUS, O.—Besides being one of the football classics of the season, the approaching clash between the Ohio State powerhouse and Pittsburgh Panthers promises to go far toward deciding the mythical national championship for 1936. Ohio State ranks with Minnesota as the class of the Big Ten while Pittsburgh is conceded to be one of the stronger teams of the east. Both teams face tough schedules but Coaches Francis Schmidt of .Ohio State and Jock Sutherland of Pitt eye each other’s outfit as the most dangerous opponent on their respective schedules. Although both Schmidt and Sutherland coach a fairly open style of football. Coach Schmidt lays greater stress on aerials, schools his boys in a sensational offensive which is featured by complicated laterals, and generally favors a tricky brand of attack rather than a straight running game. Neither coach has evinced any

tk — * Today’s Sport Parade (By’Hsnry McLemore) i . > New York. Oct. 7. — (U.R) — The 1936 world series, in which two ■ mighty teams not only came to ■grips but locked horns and waged ’ j bitter inter-city strife as well, has •'ended. Before we lay the mem- . I ory of it away in lavender and old ■ i moth balls, let’s check back over ;; the six gam&s and name a few I "firsts'’. Here's one man’s opinions on : the tops and bottoms of the ser- ■ ies: ! The No. 1 guy: A fellow named ■ Jake—Jake Powell. How much would you have liked to bet before the business stated that Jakey would outhit Gehrig by 163 points and Di Maggio by almost as much? But he did. and his mark of .455 was far and away the fattest avI erage of the series. The No. 999 guy: A fellow named Travis — Travis Jackson. He

particular optimism about the out- - come, although there seems to be ; little ground for pessimism on the I part of either. At Columbus the main gaps left by graduation were at center and left halfback, positions occupied by Gomer Jones, All-American, and Dick Heekin, respectively. On the surface, however, the problem at left half seems not so serial? in view of the fact that Schmidt has Jumping Joe Williams, sensational sophomore from last year, as well as Bill Booth, former captain of the Illinois freshmen team, and Mike Kabealo, fourth of a line of Ohio State football stars. The Buckeye veterans who should give Pittsburgh plenty of trouble include Capt. Merle Wendt at end; Tippy Dye at quarter; Inwood Smith and Gus Zarnas at guards, and Pete Gales and Char- : fey Hemrick, two veterans, at tackles. ’ One of the Pittsburgh perform- : ers who will be in the spotlight ; will be young Marshall Goldberg of Elkins, W. Va., who signaled • himself as a halfback of outstand

was a great one when he had lt,| and he bad Its or many u year. ••*»< he had no business being out there | in 1936. Ills figures are bud enough a butting average of .SOU and three errors- but they don t tell half the story. He didn't put hlsi glove on half a dozen balls that any oth-\ third baseman in either league would have knocked down. And yet they say Bill Terry is a hard-hearted guy! Hell. Stoney's his pal. and he played his pal. Right up to the end. Best pitching performance: It belongs to a losing pitcher fat Freddie Fitzsimmons. None of his rivals came close to turning in the performance he did in getting licked in she third game. The worst pitching performance: I don't remember their names exactly, but they were Giants and stopped off here en route from Peoria, in the Three-Eye league, to some place in the kitty or sally circuit. Best catcher: Mancuso. Best first baseman: Gehrig. Best second baseman: Lazzeri. Best third baseman: Rolfe. Best left flelder: Powell. Beat center flelder: Ripple. Best right fielder: Selkirk. Best umpire: There ain't no such thing! (lamest guy: Terry. He played hard baseball for six games on a left leg which wasn't fit to walk around the streets on. He’ll be lucky if he doesn’t wind up with a permanent limp. Second gamest guy: Hal Schumacher. It took courage of the rawest, reddest sort to win the game he did. Best fielding play: Dick Bartell's barehanded stop of Crosetti's burning grounder in the seventh inning of the final game. Best outfield catches: Those by acrobat Ripple in the fifth and sixth games. Hardest hit ball: The liner off Gehrig's hat in the fourth game which all but removed Terry's ailing leg. with Moore's home run in the final game a dose second. Biggest beef: Fat Malone's, when T'mpire Pfirman called Pat’s sixth pitch to Terry in the tenth inning of the fifth game a ball. (Copyright 1936 by UP.) ESTHER G.

I ing calibre when he ran wild in the j Panther’s opening game with Ohio I Wesleyan. He carried the ball 15 times, piled up more than 208 yards, and scored two touchdowns. Reserves May Tell Tale Another member of the Panther backfieid, Bobby Laßue, one of the 1935 regulars, may give the Buckeyes plenty to worry about. Still a third member of the backfield on whom Sutherland has good reason to rely is Fullback Frank Patrick, another veteran, who rates as one of the outstanding triple-threat fullbacks of the east. One of the factors which may figure importantly in the outcome -of this gridiron classic is the com--1 parative reserve strength of the two squads. Ohio State has a crew of 64 players, each of whom : is a potential candidate for the first team. Schmidt has on call : at least a dozen capable backfield performers. On the other hand, • the Panther squad is lacking in : backfield reserve strength and ; may run short of ball carrier* in I the latter half if the going get* tnugh.
