Cubs, Cards To Open Showdown Series Tuesday New York. Sept. 24 - (ITIThis is the week the shaky Chicago Cuba will find out whether they are traveling on the road io glory or the boulevard of broken dreams. Psychologically and physically at a disadvantage as St. laxils presses ever closer, they must battle the Pittsburgh Pirates in a double beader today while the Cardinals rest up for the show down series at Chicago which begins tomorrow. The Cubs were to have been Idle today, too, but rain over the weekend precluded that. Victorious, 7 to 3. over the Pirates once yester- , day In a game that was much too close for comfort, the Cubs had the second game rained out. That > made two games necessary for today since Saturday's game with . the Pirates also was postponed. | Kay Prim and Claude Paaseau . were named to face the battling | Buccaneers, who will be going all < out to win because they still have ( a chance to take third place away from the Brooklyn Dodgers. ; The Cubs now are a game and a half ahead of the Cardinals with j seven more to play. They need victories In five of them to clinch ’ a tie even If St. laiuis wins all of Its remaining sir Six Chicago vic- « lories will assure them of the pennant regardless of what the Car dinals do. The Cubs are saving Hank Borowy, who has yielded only three runs to the Cardinals in three gam es, for one of the two big tilts, mit who will pitch the other game Is strictly a guess Hauk Wyse. who went yesterday and picked up tils 21st win of the season, would be the logical choice, but usually t needs at least three days of test to be fully effective. To outfielder Andy Pafko went the laurels for pulling yesterday's

••mum” victory over the Pirates. | Jim Russell bad put the Pirates a-; head, 3 to 0, with a two run homer , In the third. The bases were loaded when Pafko stepped to the plate, but there wasn't a soul on then when he completed a grand slam circuit around the paths.; his blow spearheaded a six run inning off Eiwin (Preacher> Roe and after that t.ie Pirates never threatened. The Cardinals closed out their home season by treating the Reds, 9 to 6. for their seventh victory in eight games. Sylvester (Bllx) lx>nnelly got credit for his eigth win although the Reds chased him to

the showers with four runs in the eighth. Emil Verban singled with the baaeg loaded to start the Cards ' to a 2 to 0 lead and George Kuruwski added another with his 21»t homer in the third. Bill Lakeman homered for the Reds. The Braves got good pitching from oldster Bill Lee and youngster

Detroit Needs ! Two Wins To 'Cinch Pennant I' - ’ New York. Sept. 25— (UPI—Tor . tiirous hours of waiting began today for the Washington Senator! ’ who must stand by Idle while the Detroit Tigers play four mere gam . es which will determine whether they win. lose or tie for the American la-ague pennant. Winning without a playoff game Jor series with the Tigers was an extremely distant possibility. The Senators, who muffed a golden chance yesterday by wpllttin'g their last two games of the season with the tail-end Athletics at Philadelphia while Detroit was be[lng shutout by St. Louis, can't win i unless the Tigers lose off of th-lr four remaining games They w'll (It- the Tigers if Detroit loses three ami are out of the picture it the Bengal* win two or more. Washington won't even have its own park in which to practice, but must go to nearby Bainbridge, Md . for dally workouts because GriffI ith Stadium has been taken over by the Washington Redskins professional football team. An apparent victory became a bitter. 4 to 3 defeat In 12 innings yesterday when Emil I Dutch) la-<e tiard blew a 3 to l» lead after holding the Athletics -scoreless for seven innings. The Nationals won twice, the team would have been only two percentage points behind Detroit. Now they are a full game down At Detroit, the Tigers got only two hits In a 5 to o whitewashing hy Nelson Potter. The Browns knocked out starter Paul (Dlxs/) , Trent with four runs In the first ■ three innings. The Yankees spoiled "Dave Farrias" day at Bosto, beating the rookie, 2 to 1. in five innings In his bld for victory 22 before fans who had gven him an automobile. The Red Sox won heel opener, 6 to 5, in 14 innings. Bob Feller pitched his fifth victory since returning to the Indians, an 8 to 2, four-hit decision over the White Sox at Cleveland. Yesterday's Star — Nelson Potter of the Browns, whose two-hlt blanking of the Tigers kept thwin from virtually clinching the American U-ague flag. LEADING BATSMEN National League Player, Club G. AB.

DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT, DECATUR, INDIANA

I. U. Beals Michigan In Big Ten Opener Chicago. Sept. 24 (UP) — Indiana football fans, who have waited It years for Indiana to win a big ten chainplotrshlp, today hailed a new backfUtld Alar * ho good enough to end the Hoosiers long fast. ’’ Even coach Bo McMillin, before *' the reason started, bad a hunch " he might have the makings of a '' championship team. But he had to r see his new left halfbu. k. George ’’ Taliaferro, under fire before he wax sure. '■ Taliaferro, a jolting 185-pound " Negro from Gary, Ind., left no B doubt as he ran .Michigan dlxxy 1 Saturday to lead the Hoosiers to ' a 13 to 7 vic’ory In the opening game of the big ten season. Me1 .Millin knew then be had another great hack. 1 Taliaferro. In his first year. i» , rated a better back than Billy Hlllenitand and Bob (llunchy) Hoerns- ‘ chemi yer. most recent of Indiana’s many great left halfbacks, In their freshmen seasons. ' The Gary galloper return* to at--1 tion Saturday to lead Indiana ' against Northwestern a< the Hoosiers attempt to get a jump on ■he other big ten teams by scoring their second straight conference victory. The Indiana-Northwestern game Is the only conference match on this week-end's seven-gam* midcard, which Is highlighted by Notre Dame's debut against Illinois, Ohio State's opening performance against .Missouri and lowa's first game against Bergstrom airfield I from Austin, Tex. The top crowd of the day, some 50.000 fans. Is expec’etl to witness Hugh Devore's first Irish team In action at South Bend. Northwestern, in squ.-exlng past lowa state 18 to 6, showed nothing offensively or defensively which will be able to dent Indiana. 1 Illinois, with quarterback BUI Butkevich -coring 14 points, breex- 1 ed by Pittsburgh with an opening 1 23 to 6 victory The Illinois appear- 1 ed to be playing under wraps, holding back most of their "stuff” for Notre Dame this weejt-end. The Irish, weakened by the loss o’ center Frak Szymanski and •fullback Marty Wendell, find themselves in the unfamiliar position of underdogs for thia one. Minnesota showed its old-time ’ steamroller power in smashing Missouri, 34 to 0 Saturday, to give Bernie Bierman a happy homecoming and hi* 18th consecutive triumph a* coach of the Golden , Gopher. Wisconsin, which showed little i offense hut a strong defense in i holding Great Lakes scoreless Saturday, got* again -t Its traditional Intra-sta’e rival, Marquette, this Saturday while G-eat Lake* meet* Purdue. Purdue was hard pressed to squeece out a 14 to 13 victory i over Marquette Saturday. In the seventh major midwestern

game this week-end. Michigan pl*y» Michigan State in another long- • Handing intra-state rivalry. 0 —— MAJOR LEAGUE STANDINGS NATIONAL LEAGUE W. L. Pc»- 0.8.
