Off.) | O o Detroit, Oct. 2 H'P) Two ofttired guys who came hack the hard way were striding toward the World Series today for a knock--1 down, drag-out battle which will put one of them on ’he very top of the baseball heap. One was a left-handed, banjoplaying Dutchman with a shock of graying brown hair wtto is known affectionately to hit Chicago Cubs as Jolly ('holly Grimm. The other wa«* Steve O'Neill, a tough-looking Irl-hman from Mi-1 nooka. Penn., whose troubles before and since managing the De- ’ troi- Tigers have marke d his slick ! black hair with silver. For luith It was a ce»f of making good after being shunted off to the minor leagues on grounds that they were just a bit ehort of being Major League managerial timber. And here they were, wish the pennants of their respective league* flying from their lances, ready to tilt for baseball's greati est honor. It was, as the boys In the game i say, baseball justice. Grimin'* was a real comeback. | He had been on ’op before, bring-1 i ing three National league championship* to these same Cubs as a manager and others Is-fore that ja« one of the finest first basemen the game ever lias known. But the blow fell In July. 1935. The Cubs , that sermon were ra’ed as the team to beat but unoer Grimm [they floundered so badly that Joi-i ly ('holly was replaced by Gabby Hartnett, the tomato-faced catch--1 er. Hartnett rallied the; club Jus' i when it seemed that the Pirates had the pennant sewed up. Gabby hitting a ninth inning homer in a vital game which enabled Chicago to nose out the Bucaneers to take the flag. And Charley was down with Milwaukee, gazing up longingly at the Majors so far away. But he got another chance last year when the front office beckoned him home from exile and now, one year later, Charley has tacked another bit of bunting on that Wrigley field flagpole. And over in the American league, Black Steve wm having his troubles, too. down through the years. For 13 season * he was a catcher for the Cleveland Indians before being named manager. Then I came banishment from the Majors , when he failed to pull ’hem out i of their “cry baby" stage. Came managerial tours of duty . at Toronto, Toledo and Buffalo before Steve returned now as a Detroit coach, but then it was back to the minors again a« Beaumont manager. Then, in 1943, he returned as a Major League manager and last year finished a heart-breaking second by one game to the St.
