Erskine Wins Third Game, Sets Record o BROOKLYN, (UP)—The underdog Brooklyn Dodgers, tyioyed by one of the great pitching classics of all World Series history, were favored to beat the New York Yankees today and square this golden and richest of all classics at two games each. World Series history decreed that no team ever lost the first two games of a seven-game series and went on to win, but the oddsmakers were hedging. They establlshed the Dodgers as 6-5 favorites to win today’s game and tie the series although they still rated the Yankees as 17-10 picks to win an unprecedented fifth straight world title. Manager Casey Stengel announced that he would start Ed Whitey Ford in the fourth game while a buoyant Charley Dressen said that Billy Loes would go for the Dodgers.

The odds-makers were betting that Ford, a left-hander, could not control the right-handed power of the Dodgers and that Brooklyn would even the series and take it back to the Yankee Stadium for the final decision. Today’s and Sunday’s gatnes are scheduled for the Brooklyn park after which the series returns to the Yankee Stadium, where the Yankees won the first two games. Brooklyn won 3-2 Friday. The man who turned the series upside-down. of course, wks Carl Erskine, whose 14 strikeouts set a new series mark and proved that the Yankees were human, after all. That great effort Restored the confidence of the Dodgers, betters and fans in Brooklyn’s abiliTy to do what no team it> baseball history ever has done. A crowd of about 35,000 was almost certain to crowd into the ancient Ebbets Field bandbox and establish a new'\ record for series receipts, game is the last in which the players will share but they already were assured of taking home record purses, win or lose. Dressen announced that he would change his lineup in order to bring as much right-handed strength as possible against Ford. Duke Snider, who failed so miserably against Ed Lopat in the second game of the series, was dropped ta sixth place in the order, with the aroused Jackie Robinson taking over Snider’s third-place slot. Robinson, until Friday one of the great World Series disappointments of all time, collected three hits, drove in a run and scored another as the Dodgers made their courageous stand. A less than 20Q-hitter for the last three series, Robinson w’as art obvious key man in Brooklyn’s- bid to come from behind. Trade in a Good Town — Decatur

I. U. Bows To Southern Cal In Hard Tilt NEW YORK UP — Ignoring the odds that generally favor home teams, two invading football forces walked off with impressive victories Friday night in launching a weekend of interesting intersectional games. Fordham, attempting to regain its former high estate among the eastern powers, opened its 1953 season by whipping the University of Detroit, 21-7, in the Motor City and Baylor outlasted Miami, 21-13, in the Orange Bowl. The University of Southern California had its hands full with a stubborn University of Indiana team, but triumphed at Los. Angeles, 27-14. Quarterback George Botanic’s passing and running featured Southern California’s attack. •Elsewhere, fullback John Popson scored three touchdowns in leading Furman to a 27-0 victory over The Citadel; Temple rolled over Bowling Green, 27-0, and Syracuse rallied in the second half to tie Boston University, 14-14. Roger Franz and Vinnie Drake. Fordham’s alternating quarterbacks, up in sending Detroit down to its first defeat in three games. Franz engineered two touchdown drives for the while Drake passed to Andy Nacreni for the other score. A rain-drenched crowd of 28,000 watched Baylor open a 14-0 lead over Miami in the first half and then fight of fthe Huricane’s late bid for victory. Quarterback Cotton Davidson tallied one Baylor touchdown, passed for another and helped set up the third. Three games involving rivals from the Pacific Coast Conference and the Big Ten headlined today’s program. The Midwest representatives were favored in all three. Illinois was a 7 1-2 point choice over Stanford, Ohio State was rated a touchdown better than California in their nationally-televised scrap from Berkeley, Calif., and lowa was a seven-point pick over Washington State. Michigan State, rated second behind Notre Dame by the United Press Board of Coaches this .week, was an eight-point choice to rack up its 26th straight Victory against Minnesota in their •’sellout” meeting at Minneapolis. However, anything could happen in this one. for the Spartans expected on’y limited service from quarterback Tom Yewcic, while Minnesota signal-caller Don Swanson also was ailing. Notre Dame, which survived “the hottest football weather" in Coach Frank Leahy’s memory last week in outlasting Oklahoma, expects to Jump from the frying pan into the fire for its game with Purdue. 7*he weatherman predicted a temperature in th® 90's at *their Lafayette, Ind.,* battle scene.
