Talking It Over BY JOE WILLIAMS

NEW YORK. Oct. 4.—There was a mad, milling crowd of 3,000 baseball Alberts on hand to yip-yip things up when the victorious Yanks rolled into town Monday, a rare demonstration of sporting enthusiasm on the part of the metropolitans. Asa general proposition they do not go in for this sort of thing. They are moderate in their emotions. I have heard this loosely explained on the theory that New Yorkers are blase, that even Noah would have a tough time getting a hand if he were to come rolling up the Hudson today in the original ark. I prefer to cast a dissenting ballot. The trutu urobaoiv is that me lemno of in*town is not. conducive to these imurmai cr.eering conventions. Tne tempo anu its vastness. At anv rate vou seioom com*, upon any organized hoopiaing lor tne •ports champions. indeed, it is possible to hold a world •eries nere and the fact will be known only to the baseball zealot, wnereas in other cities It will be the occasion for singing in the streets, the closing of schools and a vast amount of oratorical chatter bv the cltv fathers. I do not recall that anvbodv turned over the kevs ot the city to Joseph Vincent McCarthy when his Yanks rormaliy clinched the American League championship several weeks ago. On the contrary the general attitude seemed to be. •well, that is very nice—and who is Mr. McCarthy?" But out in Chicago the triumphant Cubs were paraded through the loop section bv enthusiastic natives, accorded a prolonged and spectacular welcome, as beocmes men of heroic rating, and In other wavs made to leei that thev were strictly big citizens. That's the wav of the midwest. * * a WELL, anyway, the Yanks came back Monday with another world championship— the third in a row thgy won in four straight games —and they found the train sheds jammed with howling admirers. As I say this was a bit strange. At least it doesn’t happen often around here, but stranger yet was the roaring shout that went up: “Hooray for Jake Ruppert!” Here was a train disgorging a regiment of famous ball players (true. Ruth and Gehrig weren’t along, but most of the other Yankees wcrei and the main ovation was being dedicated to the club owner. That's news. The man has bitten the flog when the cash customers gather In ?iublic halls to tear off nine rails and a oily old beast for the fellow who takes heir dough at the box office. The answer Is that the man must be all right and then some. Come to think of it. Colonel Ruppert emerged from the series with more personal glory than any of the players. He was the most admirable character and the finest sportsman His qualities, happily, are such that thev are easily appreciated by the man in the street. He's a good guv. Before the series started, the colonel to ‘d newspaper reporters that the Yanks couldn t win too soon to suit him. After the Yanks won the-first game the colonel went into their dressing room, congratulated them, and turned to McCarthy: Now we win the next three, too, eh?"

AS everybody knows the players get mbst of the swag out of the first four games. The club owners do not begin to get any Important money until the series goes to the fifth game. In 1927 the Yanks beat the Pirates in four straight. A year later they repeated the sweep against the Cardinals. Now the Cubs have fallen in similar fashion. *v, A ; s hand estimate. I should say rim 1 these three series had run their lull length, the club owners would have had another million and a half dollars to divide, and as the fellow savs. that *s not ear wax. I think all the clubs trv to get the series over as speedilv as iJ" 1 as lonc as ,he Colonel :s 2h^o d .v, thprp cal ? be no doubt whatever about those Yanks.

Minnesota Purdue Foe Two Tilts Saturday May Determine Big Ten Title Threats. By Vnited Pre* CHICAGO, Oct. 4.—Big Ten football teams turned undivided attention today to the opening conference games of the season Saturday. Northwestern plays Michigan at Ann Arbor and Purdue meets Minnesota at Minneapolis, and it's possible for those two games to produce the two teams which Will battle for the Big Ten title.

It will be the first game between Michigan and Northwestern since the Wildcats scored an upset victory in the rain at Seedier field in 1925 by a score of 3 to 2. Purple Backs Ready Northwestern's backfield of George Potter, Pug Rentner, Jakie Sullivan and Ollie Olson will be intact for the Michigan game.

Gangway for Mr. Breen

\ ■' w/- vjHHL

WHEN Joe Dienhart, Cathedral coach, started football practice sessions this fall, he had few veterans from that championship 1931 outfit. But the sight of Bernie Breen, who galloped to several touchdowns last year, was a happy one and around this young ball toter, Dienhart has molded his 1932 eleven. Breen will bear the brunt of the work when the Irsh tackle Shortridge at Shortridge field Friday afternoon in the 'first city championship game of the year for both teams and it should be a thriller. Cathedral is improving fast and defeated Southport last Friday night. Bob Nipper has the Blue Devils going strong and has taken both Lebanon and Greenfield into camp by big counts.

Ruth Praises Yank Hurlers for Fine World Series Work

BY BABE RUTH. NEW YORK, Oct. 4.—Now that the world series is Rast and gone, and we can reflect on it from various angles, I am inclined to think that the one big factor in making it such a sweep for the Yankees has been somewhat overlooked in the maze of home run hitting and the heavy hitting which turned the final game into a riot. I don’t think our pitchers have been accorded quite as much credit in the success as they should have received. I am not overlooking the fabt that we had some loose pitching here and

Cowboy Jones Returns

Jewish junior middleweight from Cincinnati, and Gordon Arquette, young Indian ace from Tacoma, wash Jack Domer. rough Texas veteran, will be seen against a foe to be named.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

Bernie Breen

is in a position to give the Boilermakers a test, it is the Gophers. Coach Bernie Bierman can be counted upon to give the conference title favorites of Noble Kizer a battle and not a few good observers look for an upset, although Kansas Aggies, who fell before the Purdue team last Saturday, 29-13, were no pushovers. Indiana, not too optimistic but willing to take its 7-6 win over. Ohio university as being scored against a very fine team, travels to Columbus this week to open its Big Ten schedule against Ohio State. State walloped Wesleyan last Saturday and on that basis might be figured a little stronger, about 13-6, as the score was last year. It takes money to keep athletics going in a little school, so Roy Tillotson, former assistant at Miami, will take his little band of Franklin Grizzlies over into the league he came from to tackle Ohio U. at Athens, O. The Ohio gridders will be heavy favorites. De Pauw, in a fighting frame of mind after the Manchester setback, 7-6, will be out for revenge against

there. George Pipgras was taken out in the ninth inning of one game, and Johnny Allen was batted out in the first inning of another. But look at it this way—the Cubs had to battle hard for the runs they scored and did not benefit through loose pitching. The Yankees, on the other hand, were able to get away to such a commanding start because the Chicago pitching was wild and ineffective. I have been looking over the scoring and I note that the Cubs had only one real big inning in the four games. That was in the first inning of the fourth game when they bunched five hits with an error and picked up four runs. In foui other innings they scored two runs, and in seven different innings they pushed one run across. In other words they were blanked in twenty-four of the thirty-six innings and in seven others they got but one run. There is a story of pitching effectiveness. Even when our pitching was spotty here and there, it never was so bad that they could pile up a whole flock of runs. In the four games, our pitchers handed out only eleven bases on balls while the Cub pitchers were walking twenty-three ‘men. Here again is a big difference in favor of the pitching on our side. r^ uffing ’ Gomez - Pennock and Wiley Moore all pitched good ball, and Pipgras had done a lot of good pitching before he was taken out in the ninth inning of the third game when the score was close and two hits popped in a row. So as I see it, our pitching went hand in hand with hitting in making that four-straight success possible. SI JOHNSON TO WED By times Special OTTAWA, 111., Oct. 4.—Silas Johnson, who has served six years as pitcher for the Cincinnati Reds of the National League, will be married here Wednesday afternoon to Miss Doris Thompson, who resides near Norway, 111.

Bam Wants Two Years ‘l’m Still Too Young to Quit,’ Ruth Says After Series. BY JACK CUDDY United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Oct. 4—One 6f the more important results of the Yankees' four-straight world series victory over the Chicago Cubs may be the extension of Babe Ruth’s playing career for a couple of years. Baseball’s brawny Ponce de Leon admitted Monday night that he “discovered the fountain of youth’’ in the series and had decided to continue playing indefinitely because he felt “too young to quit.” Forgets Old Promise This announcement surprised baseball writers who were ready to ship him off to the Boston Red Sox or some other club as player-man-ager at the end of next season. Babe had promised “positively” that he would quit at* the end of 1933 because he was feeling the weight of his 38 years and twenty full years of professional baseball. Mrs. Ruth was wrapping anew poultice on her husband's bruised forearm while the big fellow talked of his plans. The arm had been struck by a pitched ball during the last game at Chicago. Passes Up Barnstorming “Honestly, I had intended quitting at the end of next season,” he said. “But when I found out that I was just as good as the young bucks in the series, it knocked the years right out from under me. And I felt so young again that I changed my mind. The way I feel now, I’ve got a couple more years in the old body—maybe three.” Babe said he will do no barnstorming this fall. He’ll golf, fish and hunt, and in February go to Florida to get ready for the training season. BLUE CAGERS DRILL Basketball practice opened at Shortridge Monday, with eightyfour answering the first call by Coach Kenneth Peterman. Three veterans, Robinson, Burns and Seward, are on the squad.

Miami at Oxford, Saturday. It is one of those games the Tigers scheduled while a member of the Buckeye conference, a place they since resigned, and for that reason a victory would be sweet.. Illinois took Miami Saturday, 20-7, which indicates power for Miami, and Coach Gaumy Neal is worrying about his line at De Pauw. Engineers at Wabash Rose Poly renews athletic relations at Wabash this week and has wins over Oakland City and Hanover to its credit while Wabash is expected to show improvement this week after tying Franklin, 0-0. Butler, fresh from a two-week rest, during which time Fritz Mackey lias spent hours on forward pass defense and improved the blocking, tackling and kicking, will ride the cushions to Cincinnati to engage the university team there Saturday night. Butler will be forced to hustle as the Cincy. crew walloped Hanover a couple weeks ago. It will be home-coming day at Earlham with Coach Ross’ boys entertaining Bluff ton (O.) college, and after the good showing the Quakers made against the powerful Ball State team, they should win. Teachers at Valpo Valparaiso will have its hands full with the Indiana State Teachers of Terre Haute at Valpo Saturday and the game should be one to result with a close count. Manchester, after its 7-6 win over De Pauw, will be hard to get along with, and Grand Rapids college, which fell before the Chesters, 21-6, last year, should take another one on the nose. Activities in the state this week begin Friday night when Central Normal of Danville travels to Muncie to tackle Ball State. Hanover will be in Evansville for a game with Bill Stryker’s team. Both elevens have dropped two games.

Continentals Test Manual Manual will open defense of the city public high school football championship it captured in 1931 when the Redskins take op Washington's powerful Continentals in a rivalry battle at the west side gridiron Friday afternoon.

♦ Post Season Baseballs

BY EDDIE ASH NORMAN PERRY, Indianapolis owner and president, and his new Tribe manager, Wade Killefer, were back in Indianapolis today after watching the Yankees thump the Cubs both at New York and Chicago in the world series. Killefer got in touch with his many big league friends and put out a few lines toward snaring some new talent for the Indians. The first problem facing Killefer is choosing a Tribe spring training site for 1933. The Indians have been invited back to Sarasota. Fla., but they are not sure of accepting the bid. tt tt St All minor league clubs and many big league teams are going to reduce training expenses on account of bad business conditions and the Tribe chiefs are thinking seriously of training at home, or at French Lick, or both, with two or three weeks at the Hoosier spa in the Orange county hills and the last two weeks on the home lot at Perry stadium. It’s evident Perry and Killefer are serious about changing camps and gamble on the weather north of the Ohio. They appreciate, however, that it will be no easy matter to line up early exhibition games if they quarter the athletes in Indiana. ANOTHER SERIES SUGGESTED OUTLASTING the big world series, the little world series is still in the headlines, and now the Portland club, champion of the Pacific Coast League, also Class AA, is appealing for another series, with the suggestion that the Minneapo-lis-Newark winner travel to Portland to stage a grand double A finale. Newark turned down the offer on Monday and Millers players were to vote on the proposal today. The guess is that Minneapolis also will reject the plan. Oregon weather in October makes a practice of going wringing wet. tt tt a The Coast League closed Sunday and Spencer Abbott’s Beavers won by a margin of five games over Hollywood. The other teams finished in the order: Sacramento, San Francisco Seals, Los Angeles. Seattle, Oakland and San Francisco Missions.

Attucks Boosters Plan Big Day Wednesday at Stadium Baseball Game

Wednesday will be “Crispus Attucks high school day" at Perry stadium when Jim Taylor’s A. B. C.s, local professional league Negro nine, takes on the fast Entre Nous amateur team, champion of the City Social League. The contest will be staged in the afternoon and the entire proceeds will be used to outfit the Attucks football team. The Booster Club of Indianapolis, a group of public spirited men, is sponsoring the Wednesday game and members are striving to make the event a gala affair and attract a large crowd. Crispus Attucks needs the assistance of all of its supporters to outfit its team and to place the school officials in a position to arrange a strong schedule. The school has no rivals in the immediate vicinity and it is necessary to bring teams here from a distance, which entails heavy expense. MEYER IS SPEAKER Howard M.

New York Giants. However, the scribes and fans up there are blue over the danger of losing their peppery pilot, Ownie Bush. Fact of the matter, Minneapolis scribes now are convinced Bush is headed back to the big show, as new manager of the Cincinnati Reds. The little Hoosier chief spent a great and happy season in Millertown and won the pennant in a breeze, but there’s no life to compare- with the ups and downs of the major leagues. tt tt * e It is said Mike Kelley, Miller president, has resigned himself to the loss of Bush and is looking the field over for an energetic Hustler to replace Ownie. Moreover, it is reported Kelley has decided to hold on to Joe Mowry, sensational rookie left fielder. During the winter, however, an offer may come to change Kelley's mind. Joe established himself as a hero in one season at Nicollet park and the club does not intend to parrt with him unless big money and pitchers are obtained in exchange. Mowry batted .SIR this year, scored 175 runs and collected 357 hits for 381 total bases.

Leonard Gets Big Chance in Scrap With McLarnin Friday

BY HENRY M’LEMORE United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Oct. 4.—The world’s most important leather trading post, Madison Square Garden, will open its doors to fall patronage Friday evening with an engagement between Benny Leonard, the old bald eagle of the Bronx, and jimmy McLarnin, the Vancouver boy who carries innocence on his face and death and destruction in both hands. The bout has more than its share of intriguing angles. For one thing it marks the crossroads for both parties concerned. If Leonard loses he’s out of the big time. He’ll still be able to get bookings in the smaller clubs, but it’s pretty tough to recoup a fortune with one night stands.

Millers in Fifth Tilt Petty to Hurl Against Newark Nine as Series Is Resumed. GAME POSTPONED MINNEAPOLIS. Oct. 4.—The fifth game of the little world series was postponed today because of cold weather.. The teams, each having won two 'gamps* will resume play Wednesday and continue daily until one team has won four games. By Time* Special MINNEAPOLIS. Oct. 4—Deadlocked with two victories apiece, Ownie Bush’s Millers and A1 Mamaux’s Newark Bears, chammons of the American Association % and International League, respectively, were on edge today ready to resume play in the little world series in the fifth game. It is a scheduled seven-game struggle. Jess Petty, veteran southpaw, was slated to take the slab for Minneapolis this afternoon, and home fans were confident he would come through with a second triumph over the invading nine. He beat the Bears in Newark last Wednesday, 3 to 2. Chief Mamaux of the Bears was undecided about his pitching selection for the fifth tilt between the A A rivals. The players shared in the first four games and the guess is that the winning team members will receive about $785 each and each member of the losers about $525. The split will be slightly higher than in the 1931 little series between St. Paul and Rochester. Weather this morning was breezy and veteran Miller pastimers were pulling hard for warmth later in the day. Scores of the series to date follow: , At Newark-Newark. II: Minneapolis 0.
