I’m confident we’ll win the pennant.*’ Big Luke has been hitting at .4f4 and has driven in 22 runs during the 10 games since he returned regularly to the lineup on Aug. 13. His 18 included five home runs. After his home run and jingle yesterday had contributed four Rpi’s to the Indians’ 6-4, lead-tak-ing victory over Casey Stengel’s New’ Yorkers, Easter said: “I think I can keep going all y right. My knee feels good. And I’m more relaxed, out there than I used to ’be—-even when that man Reynolds is pitchin’ at me.” The towering Negro first baseman was referring to his tightly bandaged left knee, from which

Lopez benched him and sent him to the Indianapolis club. There the 31-year-old semi-cripple was told to relax and get back his batting confidence. Th.e knee improved and he returned to the Cleveland club about July 15. However, he was not used regularly until Aug. 13. Since then the Indiana won eight of tbeir 19 games, most of which were determined by big Luke’s long-ball hitting. “He has been a tremendous help In our fight to over-haul the Yankees,” said amiable and alert Lopez. whose snapping black eyes rediated delight over yesterday’s “big win.” 1 i * Lopez, -,in his second season at the Cleveland helm, emphasized that Easter—in good form —was giving the whole club a lift because of his -ability to {produce runs, Lopez said the percentage should

Scattergunners To Close Shoot Today _ VANDALIA, Ohio, up —A field of about 500 scatterguners takes the firing line today to close the 53rd Grand American, trapshoot with a bang at the doubles champjionships and the Vandalia handt: cap. 1 j The third largest field in the shoot’s History watched /placid, gum-chewing Orval E. Voorhees, 44, Grand Island, Neb., shatter $8 of 100 birds from the l&yard-line to win the coveted Grand American Handicap Friday. The Women’s Grand American went to Marjorie Miller, a 25-year-old county auditor’s clerty from Newton, lowa, She shot 91 out of--100 from the 18-yard line, to beat out Seattle nurse Myrtle Wiese’s 90 from the same mark. Dave Brooks, 15-yera-old Kewanee, 111., youth, won the Junior Grand title after taking a shootott with -Alex Stalkier, Pond Creek, Okla., when each broke 92 birds from the 18-yard stripe. All of Friday’s shooters had to battle high winds as' well as the pressure of 1,759 shotgunners, with air tossing the saucershaped targets about like corks on ah ocean of whitecaps. Ned Lilly, veteran Grand contender from Stanton, Mich., finished second in the handicap with 97x100* from 25 yards back, most distant of the yardage markers. Except for D. A. Flewelling, Harvey, 111., who topped the professional division wun a 90 Jrom the 25-yard line, none of the other trophy winners stood behind the 23-yard marker. * ';' -\| Champion E. Mike Wayland,* Washington/Kan., wound up why out of the running for the grand prize, which no J2-guage shotgun artist has ever won twice. In the September stretch when Cleveland plays 20 of 22 games at home while the Yanks have but two games at home. Meanwhile, first-sacker Easter sat in the dressing room at Yankee Stadiuiu before today’s second game with Stengeleers and admitted with a wide grin, “I’d sure like to play in my first world series. And right now I feel pretty sure I will.” r - :

Allie Reynolds Is First Gaine's Goaf !>■ i . - * ; By UNITEp PRESS Casey Stengel, who combines the personality of a clown with {he ahrewdness of a stock broker, plumed pitcher Allie Reynolds fbr pad fielding and bad base running in the wake of a Cleveland iri dtory that knocked the Yankees out of first place. < i| i"They say he wasn’t fast and that ~<be didn’t have it,’’ Stengel inhsed as he post-mortemed the j|-4 Cleveland victory which 1 put the Indians in first place and knocked his Yankees out of the lead for the first time since June ? hWell, I thought he looked pretty! good out there pitching,’’ he Went on. “But he didn’t do so good a [couple of other times.” f Then Stengel explained the lapses by Reynolds which he thought bost the Yankees ther victory. They did not include the home run ball to Luke Easter in the fifth inning with two men on base which put Cleveland beyond reach, despite a fopr-run Yankee rally that was climaxed by Joe Collins’ three-run homer. ['We lose by two runs,” he said. “Maybe vfe should win by two or more. What happens in the first tn a Ing’ Dale Mitchell singles and Bobby Avila hits a triple. That’s top bad but it can’t be helped. What happens next can. That's When Larry Doby hits a grounder to first. Joe Collins is a good bag man but messes up the bdli. Where was 'Reynolds? He should have been over to cover. If he was, Doby & ’out and the buy on third won’t move too far. But nobody is there and the guy on third goes home.* | Then Stengel warmed up about the triple play by the Indians Which second baseman Avila touched off in the fifth. Billy Martin Baid bunted safely and Reynolds was on because Al Rosen messed UP his infield fly. Hank Bauer |hen hit a low liner, which Avila eaught at his shoe tops, stepping on second to double Martin and throwing to first to triple Reynolds. ; “With a team behind 5-0, what the heir kind of baserunning is that?” he asked. “One run won’t do u& any good and if those guys Sold their bases Avila gets only one out instead of three.” ( The Indians, wrapping up their sixth yictory in 10 games in Yankee stadium to clinch the season’s
