Yankees Vs. Cards Wednesday World Series Opens In St. Lou

By GEORGE C. LANGFORD UPI Sporto Writer The St. Louis Cardinals began one of the most fantastic stretch drives in major league* history Aug. 24 when they were 11 games out of first place. But the turning point of the season for the new National League champions, according to Manager Johnny Keane, was June 15, the day the Cardinals acquired Lou Brock. • “When we got Brock, we realized we had a great ballplayer,” Keane said, *‘and his presence and play picked up the entire team.” When Brock arrived from Chicago as part of a six-player trade that sent pitcher Ernie Broglio to the Cuba, he had only a .251 batting average with 10 stolen bases and two home runs. And the Cardinals were in eighth-place, seven games behind the leading Philadelphia Phillies. Began To HU Then overnight he began to hit with authority. Brock was told by Keane to steal anytime he thought he could make it. Brock contributed two hits in the Cards’ ’ pennant-clinching 11-5 victory over the New York Mets Sunday. He finished the season hitting .348 for St. Louis (.315 overall), stealing 43 bases, slugging 14 homers, 29 doubles and 11 triples. The Mets, the only team to beat the Cardinals over the final two weeks of the season, could have produced a threeway tie for first place by beating St. Louis in the finale. They opened a 3-2 lead in the top of

the fifth inning, but the Cards put together three-run bursts in the bottom of the fifth, the sixth and the eighth frames to wrap up their first flag in 18 years. Brock wasn’t the only hero in this wildest finish to a National League season. Tim McCarver collected three hits and three RBl’s, while Bill White and Dal Maxvill had tiwo hits and two RBl’s each. Richie Allen slugged a double and two homers for the Phillies, who prevented the Cincinnati Reds from tying the Cardinals for the top spot with a 10- shutout. The Reds, who entered the final game of the season tied with the Cardinals, had to settle for a second-place deadlock with the Phillies, one game behind St. Louis. Bunning Wins 19th Jim Bunning stopped the Reds with six hits to notch his 19th victory against eight leases. He permittee only two runners to reach second. Allen contributed four of the 12 hits the Phils pounded off loser John Tsitouris and six Cincinnati relievers. Al Dark was fired as manager of the San Francisco Giants after the Giants finished their season with a 9-2 loss to the Chicago Cubs. Larry Jackson the biggest winner among major league pitchers during the season, won his 24th, going the distance for the 19th time. Jackson allowed nine hits, one a £ome run by Willie Mays, his 47th of the season which gave him the league crown in that department. Mays finished with a batting average of .296. In other games, the Los Angels Dodgers finished in a tie for sixth place with the Pittsburgh Pirates, beating the Houston Colts 11-1 behind the pitching of rookie John Purdin while the. Pirates were losing to the Milwaukee Braves 6-0 behind Bob Sadowski. Yogi Goes Home It didn’t matter to Yogi Berra who won in the National League, but after he learned that the World Series would open in St. Louis he commented: “It’ll be good to get home.” It was in the Mound City 39 years ago that a catcher named Lawrence Peter Berra was born and where his childhood pals tabbed him '‘Yogi," a nickname that was to stick with

him throughout his life. Berra now lives with his family in New Jersey and visits to • his birthplace have been rare since the old Browns moved to Baltimore and became the Orioles after the 1953 season. “I didn’t care which of the clubs, won over there, just as long as there was no playoff,** Berra said. "We wanted to get started without a delay.”' Ford To Start Whitey Ford, Berra's pitching coach and staff veteran, was named to open the series against the Cardinals as expected. Berra indicated he would start rookie Mel Stottlemyre in the second game and probably use righthander Jim Bouton for the third game in New York next Saturday. In other American League games, Chicago blanked Kansas City, 2-8, Los Angeles shutout Minnesota, 3-0, in a game shortened to six innings by rain, and Boston outshigged Washington, 14-8.

Dark Is Fired AsSJ.Boss SAN FRANCISCO (UPD - Herman Franks, who took a brutal razzing in 1958 while coaching at third base for the San Francisco Giants, stuck his neck out further today by replacing Alvin Dark as their new manager. Club President Horace Stoneham waited until the sixth inning of Sunday’s 9-2 loss to the Chicago Cubs before personally going into thes dressing room and telling Dark he was finished. Stoneham also fired the entire coaching staff, Franks excepted. However, Stoneham said that some of the coaches might be rehired. “I believe we can do a better job as far as the club's standing goes,” Stoneham told a press conference 30 minutes after the Cubs had locked the Giants up in fourth place in the final National League standings. Frank was tendered a one year contract for approximately $35,000. Dark took the news stoically and stayed around the locker room for about an hour afterward. “I didn’t know I was going to be replaced until Horace came down in the sixth inning and told me so,” Dark said, looking much more calm than he frequently did after a tough loss. “Well, it’s all a part of the game. I did the best I could with this club and I have no regrets.” He was slated to head home to Lake Charles, La., today and asserted that he had no other jobs in mind. Axqd with Dark were coaches Whitey Lockman, Larry sen and Cookie Lavagetto. Lockman and Jansen were Dark's teammates when he played «shortstop and captained the New York Giants in their fantastic pennant drive of 1951. In his four years at the Giant helm, Dark managed the club to the 1962 pennant. Fif-ty-thousand fans rioted at San Francisco’s International Airport welcoming him and the club back after they had beaten the Los Angeles Dodgers in the final game of a playoff for the flag. Then the Giants carried the Yankees to seven games Lefort bowing in the World Series. M ’ — Berne Rallies For Second Win Saturday Senior fullback Jay Yager scored a pair of fourth quarter touchdowns to lead a Berne rally that produced a 14-13 victory over Payne, 0., in the Bears’ homecoming game Saturday afternoon. With Payne holding a 13-0 lead, Yager scored from four yards out early in the last period and Mike Parks passed to Rick Beer for the point-after. Later in the final stanza, Yager again drove over from four yards out, and then plunged for the game-winning extra point. A 35-yard pass from Parks to Beer set up the first Berne TD, and the' same two hooked up on a 40-yard aerial set up the final score. Payne scored six points in the opening quarter and added seven more in the second period. The victory was the first for Berne since an opening-game *riujnph over Geneba, and snapped a three-game losing streak. The Bears travel to Auburn Fridav night to meet the rugged Red Devils.

Shockers Continue In NFL

By TIM MORIARTY 1 UPI Sports Writer TTie first month of the Nation- j al Football League season produced more shockers than an j lan Fleming novel. The Chicago Bears and the New York Giants, combatants in last year’s championship playoff each won only one of their first four games, and the! J once mighty Green Bay Pack- 1 ers dropped a pair of one-point ’ decisions on missed conversions by Paul Hornung. The Baltimore Colts, taking advantage of the early season miseries of the Bears and the Packers, grabbed the Western Division lead with a 3-1 record while the Cleveland Browns and the St. Louis Cardinals topped the Eastern sector with three victories and one tie. Two upsets punctuated Sunday’s seven-game slate, which drew a record 367,467 paying customers. The San Francisco Forty-Niners whipped the Bears, 31-21, and the Minnesota Vikings edged the Packers, 24-23. Easily Whip Giants The Detroit Lions also raised a few ■ eyebrows with the easy manner they cuffed the Giants, 26-3. The form held up in the other four games as the Colts ripped the previously unbeaten Ix>s Angeles Rams, 35-20, the Browns over-powered the Dallas Cowboys, 27-6, the Cardinals turned back the Washington Redskins, 23-17 and the Philadelphia Eagles trimmed the Pittsburgh Steelers, 21-7. The Forty-Niners ignited their upset over the Bears by breezing to a 17-0 lead in the first 17 minutes on a 53-yard field goal by Tommy Davis and a pair of touchdown passes by John Brodie. The Bears, still a little shook over their 52-0 shellacking at Baltimore, got untracked in the second half when Billy Wade pitcheS -two scoring passes. However, San Francisco, the only team to beat the Bears last season, added a decisive touchdown in the final quarter on a one-yard plunge by Mike Lind. It was the Forty-Niners’ second victory of the season, matching their total triumphs in 1963. Block Kick Attempt The Vikings gained their victory margin over Green Bay when Rip Hawkins blocked Hornung’s attempted placement kick after the Packers’ first touchdown in the second period. Two weeks back, the Colts nipped the Packers, 21-20, on a missed placement by the forSnider Sophs Whip Decatur Reserves Decatur’s reserve football team fell before Fort Wayne Snider high school’s sophomores Saturday afternoon at Worthman Field. ■The Snider sophs, the first class in Fort Wayne’s new school, scored a touchdown and safety in the first period and went c i to post a 23-0 victory. Ed Stanczak nabbed a Decatur runner in the end zone for a safety in the first period, and in the same quarter, caught a pass and romped 55 yards for a TD. The winners scored seven points in each of the final two stanzas. The loss was the second in fdhr starts for the Decatur reserves, and they return to action this evening, entertaining Parkway, r 0., in a 7:30 game at Worthman!. Field. L

mer Golden Boy. Hornung, who plunged over for Green Bay’s second TD just before halftime, added a 20yard field goal with less than five minutes to play to give the Packers a 23-21 lead. But the Vikings pulled it out on a 27yard field goal by Fred Cox with 18 seconds remaining. The Lions rubbed it into the Giants by scoring on a fake field goal attempt, which wound up with Earl Morrall pitching a 23-yard TD pass to sub fullback Nick Ryder, a 62-yard punt return by Tommy Watkins, a safety, a field goal, and an option pass from Watkins to Terry Barr that covered 58 yards. The Detroit defense also had a hand in the runaway triumph, picking off three Y. A. Tittle passes and holding the Giants to 72 yards rushing.

A pair of old pros sparked the Colts to their victory over the Rams. Johnny Unites hit Jimmy Orr with throe scoring passes and Lennie Moore scampered for a pair of touch- ' downs. The Rams gained only 52 yards rushing against the rugged Baltimore defense. Frank Ryan’s three 11) passes paced Cleveland’s attack at Dallas. However, the victory was a costly one for the Browns, who lost veteran tackle Bob Gain with a fractured right, leg late in the game. The Cardinals used a fearsome pass rush and a decisive third period scoring aerial from Charlie Johnson to Joe Childress in sinking the Redskins while Norm Sn*ad tossed three TD strikes, including a pair to Timmy Brown, In the Eagles’ victory over the Steelers.
