Junior High To New Haven On Wednesday Decatur’s rugged junior high football team, unbeaten in two years, will travel to New Haven Wednesday night to take on the junior Bulldogs. During the past two years, the junior high has compiled a three win, no loss, two tie record. In 1958, they beat Columbia City 19-6 and tied New Haven, 7-7. Last year they tied New Haven, 6-6, walloped Columbia City, 38-0, and finally defeated New Haven, 14-0, in a return engagement. The schedule for this year’s team finds them playing at New Haven this week and at Columbia City Monday, Oct. 3, with New Haven repaying the visit Wednesday, Oct. 12 and Columbia City doing the same Tuesday, Oct. 18. The coaches are also trying to arrange a game with Lakeside junior high of Fort Wayne. The junior high boys will be led by Max Elliott, who combines whirlwind speed with powerful running to make him one of the finest backfield prospects seen in Decatur in many a year. Elliott will be the starting fullback. Dave Anspaugh, an Eddie LeBaron type quarterback, will open at the spot reserved for the team’s leader. Gary Sheets and Willie Putteet will be the starting halfbacks. Both boys are fine runners with Sheets possessing the speed and Putteet the power. Elliott and Anspaugh will do the throwing and will find Jerry tegley and Terry Myers as their ends. Myers is a tall lad who can grab anything near him and Egley, who did a lot of playing last year, is good for the short passes. Also running in the backfield will be Sam Blythe, Bob Mies and Bill Blythe. The offensive line will feature Myers and Egley at ends, Eric Kelly and Terry Smitley at tackles, John Eichenauer and Tim Magley at guards and Jim Smith at center. Three defensive specialists will be in the line when New Haven has the ball. They are Jim Schultz. Jack Stauffer and Tom Fairchild, three boys who like to knock down the ball carrier. Reserve linemen are Butcher, Mcßride, Pettibone, Beavers, Burnett, Meeks and Feasel. About eight or nine seventh graders will be added to the squad to bring it to a full 33 players. The team will leave by bus from Worthman Field at 5 o’clock for the 6 o’clock game in New Haven. Any adults or students who would like to witness the game should be at the field shortly before 5 p. m. and they wil R>e furnished transportation by the six or seven cars that will be following the bus.

Ted Williams Quits At Close Os Season BOSTON (UPD—Ted Williams, who brought more glamor and hitting ability into baseban than any half-dozen other players over the last 20 years, win play his last game next Sunday against the Yankees at New York. Ted’s decision to call it quits at the age of 42 was made definite Sunday with the announcement he would retire as an active player at the end of the year but continue with the Boston Red Sox as a batting coach. The announcement was made appropriately by Red Sox owner Tom Yawkey, for whom Williams has played since coming into the American League as a gangling, 20-year-old rookie in 1939. The controversial “kid” from San Diego, Calif, will retire as six-time American League batting champion with a lifetme mark of about .344. But the feat that will live longest with fans is the .406 batting average he turned in during his third season in the major leagues. Ted was only 22 at the time. He was batting over .410 most of the 1941 season but dipped to .3996 with a one-for-four performance on the next to last day of the campaign. He could have sat out the finalday twinbill against the Philadelphia Athletics. The point-six would have given him an offical mark of .400. Nobody had done it in the American League since Harry Heilman hit .403 in 1923. But Williams wasn’t—and isn’t —the type to refuse a challenge. He played both games against the A’s. When the day was over Ted had six hits in eight times at bat and an average of .4057. The performance won him baseball immortality. And nothing he did during the next 19 years could ever top it—not even when he came with the rush of a teen-ager in 1958 to win the AL batting crown at the age of 40, posting a .328 average and nosing out teammate Pete Runnels. And not even when he became the thirdranking home run hitter of all time this season, passing Mel Ott’s 511 total. Freshman-Sophomore Game Here Tuesday The Decatur freshman - sophomore team will play the Fort Wayne Central Catholic freshmansophomore eleven at Worthman field in this city Tuesday evening at 5 o’clock.

Yanks, Pirates Win Pennants, To Meet Oct. 5 By MILTON RICHMAN United Preaa International The New York Yankees took it in stride and the Pittsburgh Pirates took it any way they could get it. That was perfectly understandable. For the Yankees, Sunday’s 4-3 pennant clincher against the Boston Red Sox marked the 25th League championship in their history and their 10th during Casey Stengel’s 12-year tenure. They were bound to be a bit ho-hum about it, eVen though the completely dedicated Stengel commented, “It gets tougher and tougher to win ’em every year." It was a different story with the Pirates, however. This was their first National League pennant in 33 years and they should have really whopped It up, but something of the edge was taken off because they felt they had backed into it. Knock Out Cards The minor calamity came about when the Chicago Cubs mathematically eliminated the secondplace St. Louis Cardinals, 5-0, and the Milwaukee Braves beat the Pirates, 4-2, on Eddie Mathews’ two-run homer in the 10th inning. Pirate manager Danny Murtaugh saw no reason for any gloom though. “Any club that wins 92 games in this league doesn’t back into any pennant,” he said. Thus, the Pirates will meet the Yankees in the World Series just as they did in 1927. The Yankees won four in a row that year. Murtaugh said the Pirates didn’t care who they would meet in the World Series “but I think the Pittsburgh fans would rattier have us play the Yankees because of what they did to us the last time we met them.” The twin ciinchings by the Yankees and Pirates overshadowed the rest of Sunday’s baseball schedule, of course. For the morbidly curious, however, Baltimore beat Washington, 3-1, Cleveland blanked Chicago, 4-0, and Detroit edged Kansas City, 6-5, in the AL. Pver in -the National, Philadelphia defeated Cincinnati, 7-1, and San Francisco downed Los Angeles, 13-9. Terry Gets Win Ralph Terry, 24-year-old bride-groom-to-be who killed off the Orioles’ hopes by pitching a twohitter against them a week ago Sunday, was credited with Sunday’s win for the Yanks against Boston. Terry had a four hitter until the ninth when the Red Sox put together three singles for one run and knocked him out. Luis Arroyo came in, made only one pitch and got Pete Runnels on a foul pop that gave the Yankees their ninth victory in a row plus the pennant. Roger Maris drove in two runs with three hits. Red Sox reliever Mike Fornieles tied the AL record by appearing in his 69th game of the season. Mathews' game-winning blow against the Pirates was his 38th homer of the year and it came off loser Roy Face, who relieved starter Harvey Haddix in the eighth. The victory went to rookie Ron Piche, who took over for Warren Spahn in the ninth. The Pirates knew they had clinched the pennant an hour before their game with the Braves was over. They had gotten the news that the Cubs had beaten the Cardinals. Glen Hobbie limited the Redbirds to six hits in winning his 15th game aganst 20 defeats. The Cubs clinched the game by hopping on Larry Jackson for four runs in the second inning. Orioles Take Second Brooks Robinson’s three-run homer in the eighth off loser Jack Kralick enabled the Orioles to beat the Senators and take over lt*tond fflhce in the AL. Milt Pappis was credited with his 14th victory. , Bobby Locke hurled a four-hit-ter against the White Sox to score his third win for the Indians. Tito Francona s 17th homer with one on in the first inning off Bob Shaw proved all the runs Cleveland' needed. Al Kaline’s bases-loaded single in the ninth drove in the winning runs for the Tigers in their game with the A’s. Eddie Yosthit two homers and Rocky Colavto belted his 35th. Home runts by Joe Koppe and Tony Gonzalez highlighted Philadelphia’s victory over Cincinnati. Rookie Art Mahaffey hurled a six-hitter for hs sixth triumh. Willie Kirkland’s three-run homer featured an eight-run second inning rally by the GianOr but they still needed four more in the sixth to subdue the Dodgers. Juan Marichal was the winner and Stan Williams the loser. Pro Football National League Baltimore 20, Washington 0. Chicago 17, Green Bay 14. Cleveland 41, Philadelphia 24.

Unitas Leads Baltimore To 200 Triumph By NORMAN MILLER United Press International Johnny Unitas can beat an opponent more ways than a riverboat card shark ... The Giants still have that superb defense . . . The Browns have the best twoman running threat in the NFL . . . and the crowds keep coming. So what’s new in the National Football League? Unitas was held in check for nearly one half before he switched tactics and guided the Baltimore Colts to a 20-0 victory over the Washington Redskins; and the New York Giants threw up one of their patented goal-line stands in the dying minutes to preserve a 21-19 triumph over the San Francisco Forty-Niners.
