Derringer Fails Twice in Pinch, Gets Series ‘Goat’ Nomination
BY EDWARD W. LEWtS Vniled Press Staff Correspondent ST. LOUIS. Oct. 10.—Every world series has its goat, and Paul Derringer, rookie St. Louis Cardinal pitcher, appears forced to assume that role in this one. because at crucial moments of two games he couldn't find the plate. As the Cards entered today’s final game of the series, they could look back on two of their three defeats, rnd partially explain them away by giving the luckless Kentuckian the blame. If they lose the world’s championship in-today's climax of the series,

Lefty Mows Down Birds in Old-Time Form; Pepper Martin Disappoints Followers: BGambino Praises Cochrane for* Play Despite Severe Handicaps. BY BABE RUTH ST. LOUIS, Oct. 10.—With big George Earnshaw on the firing line today, my choice of the Philadelphia Athletics to win the world series still goes. If the St. Louis Cardinals win this seventh and final game today, my hat is off to them. It won’t be the first time I’ve picked the wrong team. I am wondering whether it will be Hallahan or Grimes for the Cards. Burleigh pitched last Monday and Hallahan on Wednesday. That would make the righthander the logical choice, but they tell me his injured finger on his pitching hand may not be well enough for him to
pitch. Gabby Street’s boys saw the same Lefty Grove whom the American League hitters saw during the regular pennant season when he pitched the As back into a tie Friday. I expected Earnshaw for this game and Lefty for the finish, but Connie Mack apparently knew that Lefty was right again and now he is better set for the finish, for Earnshaw is a great money pitcher and has had a real rest. Lefty in Top Form As soon as the fifth inning was over, I knew school was out for the Cardinals. When Lefty is buzzing them down the alley as he was Friday, he seldom needs four runs to win his ball game. I didn’t think much of the game except for Grove's pitching. The Cards made their errors while their pitchers were wild and that made it a one-sided affair. Only two of the eight runs would have been scored on errorless play. 9 I didn't think the crowd was fair to Umpire Nallin. Even if he missed a strike, as it is claimed, it would not have been worth all the hooting and jeering he took. If Nallin were not a good umpire, he would not have held his job so long in the American League, nor would he have been appointed to work in a world series. Babe Sorry for Pepper Every umpire misses balls and strikes and they happen in favor and against every team in every league. Umpires are under a bigger strain than usual in a world series and I see no excuse for any such treatment as the fans gave Nallin Friday. I felt sorry for Pepper Martin Friday. When a young player goes as far as he did without failing to do something remarkable in each game, it seems too bad he failed Everybody in the park apparently was there to see Martin do something spectacular. But he already has done more than enough to w'in a place with the greatest of world series players. I don’t mean he played bad ball Friday. He handled his only chance cleanly, but he simply could not hit one safely. Three times he flied out and once he walked. Mickey Cochrane's injured hand and Lefty's speed made a poor combination in the ninth inning. Mickey dropped four or five balls, twice dropping third strikes. Mickey certainly is playing on his nerve in this series, and in spite of stolen bases and his error Friday, he has proved to me in this series that he is a greater catcher than everybody agreed he was. He is far underweight and he has a severe charlcy horse that causes pain every time he tries to run. He was sick with a stomach disorder in the trip from Philadelphia to St. Louis and one of his fingers is bruised. But he keeps on fighting, in spite of this physical condition. He is giving a remarkable exhibition of gameness, because every pitched ball requires an effort by him.

probably all Manager Gabby Street’s second guessers will say: “If Gabby hadn't used Derringer, we would have beaten the A’s.” That’s the sort of spot in which Derringer, coming to the series after one of the finest first year records of a young pitcher finds himself. With a few more years in the big league, undoubtedly he will act calmly in the pinch, but the big right hander in whom Gabby Street has so much confidence has indicated he has little confidence in himself when the breaks go against him.

Blue Shows Power to Trim Ball State Eleven 34 to 0

Three touchdowns in the first half gave Butler a 20-to-0 edge at rest time and after a scoreless third period. the Bulldogs cut loose and scored two more markers. Ball, badly hammered from their game with Miami last Saturday, wilted under off tackle smashes and end runs that began early, with Captain Kenny carrying the oval over for two of the first half
Take Friday’s game—the crucial sixth contest. Derringer almost duplicated his exhibition of temperament in the opening game of the series, which was his other start in this championship battle. a an FOR four innings, the former International League pitcher looked even better than Grove. Grove had allowed two hits, Derringer one. He had fanned three men; Grove, two. Then came the tragic fifth. Only two of the Athletics’ four runs were due to hits. Haas walked with the bases full. So did Simmons, and the last walk resulted in Derringer’s removal from the game. A veteran like Burleigh Grimes would have speeded up in such a crises, and probably weathered it. But Derringer, nervous and figety, showed a tempermental strain He blamed Umpire Nallin after the game. "I had the count three and two on Haas, and the next ball was right over. How Nallin could call it a ball is beyond me,” Derringer said. Similarly in the first game. Derringer was unequal to a crisis, and the gajne was lost. No pitcher ever looked better than he did the first two innings. He fanned four men. It was three up and three down in each of those innings. But in the third, distressed over scratchy singles by Dykes and Williams, and Haas’ double with two out, he walked Cochrane to fill the bases, and then as a crowning denouement walked Simmons, forcing in a run. The game was won in that frame. For. palpably worried, he pitched for the center of the plate and'Foxx singled to complete a four-run tally.

Eating, Hunting, Guns and Baseball —Pepper's Hobbies
EDITORS NOTE—This is the final of a series of stories relating: the spectacular rise of a sandlot youngster to a aorld series hero. Pepper Martin. by W. W. COPELAND United Press Staff Correspondent OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla., Oct. 10. —Two days after Johnny (Pepper) Martin comes home, hero of the 1931 world series, he will be out in the street playing ball with his old crony. That is the prediction made by his 67-year-old mother, Mrs. George Martin. “Johnny never tires of baseball. He used to come in from a game and go right out in front of the house and play catch with Harold Lee, a neighbor boy.” Seated in her humble home, Mrs.! Martin recounted' the steps in Pep- j per's rise to national fame. Pepper started with a grade school team here. He was captain. He played in high school for three years, then quit school and became a delivery boy. “They have said Pepper never went to high school,” his mother challenged. “He did. But there are times when people don’t have more than enough money to live on. We were poor and Johnny quit school to earn needed money.” Martin played four years on Oklahoma sandlots, then broke into organized baseball in 1923 with Ardmore, Okla., as a pitcher. The St. Louis Cards bought him in 1925 and sent him to Ft. Smith, Ark., where he played shortstop. Once in the Cardinal chain he

Meyers, Ball State flash, scored two first downs in the third quarter, but twenty yards were as close as the invaders got to the local goal line. Conrad did some neat running in the fourth quarter for a touchdown and Jimmy Stewart was the mainspring in a driving attack that punished the Ball tackles and line bebore he scored the last marker. Booz place kicked both extra points.
GABBY STREET said before the series started that he was “going to gamble this time.” He meant that he had thought over last year’s series, and decided he had been over-cautious. “That was my first series, and I’ll admit I was a bit backward at times—but not this year,” he advised. Derringer was one of his gambles. A rookie, a great record notwithstanding, is a real gamble

Red Wings Cop Title Starr, Rochester Ace, Stops Saints in Series Final Friday. By United Prexx ROCHESTER, N. Y.. Oct. 10 Rochester’s Red Wings, holders of the International League title, have added the “little world series" championship to their list of 1931 basej ball collections. Rochester won the title for the second consecutive year Friday by defeating St. Paul, champions of the American Association, 9 to 3, behind the seven-hit pitching of Starr Ray, | “iron-man” ace. The final count on the eight ! games played was Rochester five | victories and St. Paul, three. The Red Wings, managed by Billy Southworth, are a St. Louis Cardinals farm. Starr, winner of Friday's tilt, pitched three doubleheaders and won twenty-nine games for the Wings during the season. Russ Van Atta and Johnny Prudhomme were hammered for five runs in the first inning of Friday's game. Johnny Murphy and Chet Nichols finished for the Apostles. The Saints runs were scored on Fenner’s sixth inning homer. SCOTT TO TACKLE FOX .

Marchy Scharwtz NOTRE DAME hasn’t had a triple threat man in several seasons, but it begins to look like Marchy Schwartz will do plenty of kicking this fall, in addition to his passing and ball carrying. Schwartz was a popular all-America choice a year ago. He’s shifty, hard to knock over and the only lish back field veteran. He’ll be Notre Dame’s chief threat against Northwestern Saturday at Soldier Field.
In a world series, but Street took a chance with Paul Derringer in that first game, and lost, yet gambled again in Friday’s—and also lost. He had thought that his giant righthander, after tasting his first world series medicine, had graduated—but Street was wrong. That gamble may have lost the world series to the Cardinals. There were other pitchers to choose from, but Derringer got the call.

Manual Turns in Third Grid Win: Shortridge Triumphs, Tech Bows
BY DICK MILLER
Manual’s fast-going gridders checked in another city public high school series victory over Broad Ripple Friday, 13-0, while two other local schools, Tech and Shortridge, broke even in victories against out-of-town opponents. Tech losing to Linton, 12 to 6, and Shortridge taking the measure of Seymour, 6-0. Broad Ripple became the third consecutive victim of Manual, Coach Harry Painter’s team registering two touchdowns and holding the suburbanites scoreless. After an uneventful first quarter in which neither team mustered up much offensive punch, Crossen, red and white ace, broke loose in the second period for a fifty-five-yard dash and a touchdown. Cowden plunged over for the extra point. After working the ball down the field in the third quarter through consistent gains by the red backs, Cowden plunged over from the nineyard stripe. The line buck by Welton for extra point failed. Wahl, Manuel center, figured in much defensive play. Although Linton opened up almost immediately in their game

Donie Bush Quits as Pilot of Chicago Sox ‘I Don't Fit Into the Organization,’ Only Comment of Former Indianapolis A. A. Leader After Resignation; Claims Plans for Future Indefinite. By United Prexx % CHICAGO, Oct. 10.—Chicago White Sox officials today sought n new manager to replace Owen (Donie) Bush, who resigned after piloting the Windy City American League baseball team for two years. Bush's statement that “I don't fit into the organization” was the only comment made regarding the action. He said his plans for the future were indefinite. Club executives declined to say who was being considered as new pilot. In the first year of his regime the Sox finished seventh in the American League, and this year they wound up last. Injuries harassed the club throughout the season.
With their full strength available, the Hose climaxed the 1931 season with a surprising victory over the Cubs in the city series. It was the first time in five years they had defeated their north side rivals. A mid-season skirmifch was the only evidence of friction between Bush and the Sox front office. Bush sent Ted Lyons home while the club vas in the east because the pitcher had a lame arm. Aft era few days here Lyons was sent back by the business office to rejoin the team in Detroit. Bush didn't use Lyons for several weeks. At one time he had but four starting pitchers available. and one of them was an inexperienced rookie. Bush succeeded Lena Blackburne as Sox manager two years ago. A native of In dianapolis, he began his baseball career with an independent team at Sault Ste. Marie in 1905. He has played with clubs at Sagenaw, Mich.; South Bend, Ind., and Indianapolis. He was drafted by the" Detroit Tigers in 1909 and played with that club until 1921. He went to the Washington Senators in 1922 and managed the club in 1923. After three years as pilot of the Indian- I apolis A. A. club, Bush managed the j Pittsburgh Pirates two years and led that club to the National League championship in 1927. Bush planned to attend the Northwestern-Notre Dame football game today, after which he will leave for Indianapolis to spend the winter with his mother.
