Jimmy Hearn, Pair Os Homers Wreck Dodgers New York, Oct. X—(UP)—Baseball glory, in theform of its most modern miracle, beckoned , the New York-Giants today. . ” Home in their Polb grounds, they had the Brooklyn Dodgers, cheered as one of baseball's super teams in July and jeered as one of its big- ; gest busts since then, facing sud-den-death elimination in the j plhy- r off series for the National league pennant. I Having beaten the fading Dodgers, J to 1, in the opening gamb of the series yesterday at Ebbets field, the Giants needed only a triumph today-r-or, if that should escape them, a. triumph tomorrow —to win the right to face the American . league champion New York Yankees in the opening game pf the world series Thursday. Dressen's problem was npt only .to whi today to keep the Dodgers? hopes alive, hut to win tomorrow, too. Otherwise that super-tfam of j July is going to go down\in the, record books as the biggest bust the sport ever has known. For on I Aug. 11 they were leading ,the| league by 13. games, looking < _ every inch one of the diamond’s' all-time greats. , That was long ago and today, in 1 , the home of the hated Giants, these same Dodgers were fighting for their pennant life. They had lost ( ; their first big gamble—and could , I afford to lose no more. j That first gamble, came when, at ( a coin toss-up to decide the playoft -? Sites in case they were needed to ■' decide the pennant, the Dodgers * won the call and chose to open kt Ebbets field. - . j • They figured they could take the ( Giants in the first one for thdt all- . important edge, but they overlook ed three Giants in the process— I pitcher Jim Hearn, third baseman Bobby Thomson, and outfielder Monte Irvin. Tpis trie ganged up on Ralph Branca and the rest pf ' the Dodgers to score), that 3 to 1 , win yesterday. Now the Dufochermeh need only one more triumph ' to reach what seemed a forlorn hope just a few day? ago. ’ Hearn, whom 4-he Dodgers once treated like a batting practice hurler. pinned their batting ears back . with a fiVe-hit pitching job.. The ' only run he allowed was Andy Patko’s basea-empty home run in the 1 second inning. , .That blow gave the Dodgers a 1-0 lead that didn't last long. With two out in the Giant fourth. Branca hit Irvin on the arm with a pitched

balk With Monte roosting at first, slammed his 31st homer of the year into the left field seats, and that put the Giants ahead to stay. Jryin added the insurance ran in the eighth when he whacked his 24th homer. -J. I Those two Giant homers forced Dressen to admit as he went into today’s game that "we still can win, but it doesn’t look too good for us now.” Dressen, had another big problem for today’s game. Roy Campenella, generally regarded as baseball's top catcher, was so hobbled by a pulled leg muscle that he was an easy out at first base yesterday in a rally-killing double play despite a throw that was 15 feet wide. That out killed Brooklyn’s most promising bid.

However, the 1914 Braves were never as far-behind the first place the Giants were on Aug. 11. aPittsburgh Steelers Hold Giants To Tie Pittsburgh, Oct. 2.—(UP) —The experts who overlooked the Pittsburgh Steelers in their National football league future book wore a "what happened” look today. , long characterised by their grunt-and-crunch ground plays, the single, wtngprs unveiled a five man "pitching staff” last night to hold the favored New York Giants to a 13-13 tie.

Big Ten Teams Preparing For Saturday Tills Chicago, Oct. 2.—(UP)—The big victors were pleased, -but wary, in the Big Ten today while Saturday’s losers searched for new scoring and defensive combinations. Coach Biggie Munn of Michigan State, basking in the glow of the Spartans* 25-0 rout of arch-rival Michigan, said he planned "only a few” changes for the Ohio State Saturday. His only Contemplated change was the grooming of sophomore Tom Yewcic for Willie Thrower’s number two quarterback spot. Thrower had a bad day against Michigan, throwing two passes the arms of Wolverine defense .men. Ohio State’s Woody Hayes said he was “proud” of the way the Buckeyes*, defensive line held Southern Methodist in Saturday’s victory, but confessed "our offense just wasn’t good at all.” \ "A large part of the trouble was (because we are green up front,” he * said, and scheduled tough offensive workouts for the rest of the week. " \ Northwestern’s Wildcats ran through light offensive drills, but Illinois’ Ray Eliot said his boys’ tackling was “atrocious" against UCLA rf and promised rigorous workouts in preparation for Wisconsin Saturday. Len Raffensperger of lowa announced he fears Purdue’s passing and ordered intensive aerial defense drills. And at Wisconsin,! Ivy Williamson said two injured stalwarts, linebacker Darel Teteak and end Gene Felker, will be in shape for the Illinois game Saturday. Moving into the losers’ camps, Michigan’s Bennie Osterbaan admitted “we’ve got to find some combination that will get better results than we got last Saturday and hinted he is looking for a newbackfield alignment to face Stanford Saturday. ? The surprising Minnesota Gophers worked out on defense with Ed Heinz and freshmah Ron Wallis trying out for the secondary spot in next week’s lineup against
