By Eddie Ash Van Linjfle Munjfo Broke in as Star mm* He/Pitched Shutout on Dehut in Majors

nnHK crestfallen New York Giants will carry to the end of their baseball careers the memory of the blinding speed Var* Lingle Mungo of the Brooklyn? poured at them in last Saturday's game. He had the former world champions handcuffed as he led the Dodgers in the “sudden death” series. The big fellow stands 6 feet 2* inches and weighs a few pounds ai)ove 200. He is a difficult pitcher to solve when his control is good and he is one of the leading strikeout hurlers of the National league. He struck out the last three men to face him Saturday. Mungo's victory put the finishing touches on the dowrfall of the Giants, and he not only pitched stellar ball but took part in the batting attack to add to his glory. B B B B B B MUNGO hails from Pagriand. 8. C. Hr Is 23. He was a member of Pageland high school mn* and the Baiey Military Institute.

He was sent against the 80-ton Braves on Sunday, Sept. 7, t*o day’s after leaving Hartford mam mam MUCH to the surprise of everybody the rookie turned loose an assortment of speed that knocked the Braves silly. He gave only two hit* and scored a shutout. 2to 0. Mungo also made himself a double hero by blasting out a triple and two-base hit. driving in both Brooklyn runs. While in the minors he set an odd record for striking out the last seven, batters to face him in a night game against Norfolk. He registered the group of strikeout* on twenty-seven pitched balls. Van Lmgle has invested his baseball earnings in the cotton business. He took part in football as well as baseball wher at military school and 1 also w’on a medal for rifle shooting. And thatu what the New York Giants thought last Saturday. The balls were whistling by them as if shot out of a gun.

Daylight saving time is "off" all over the: country This column conductor in the spring selected the New York Giant* to win the National League pennant. Washington to win the American flag and Columbus to win the American Association honors. Believing that the St. Louis Cardinals are what is known as "hot," we pick the Cardinals to down the Detroit Tigers in the “autumnal classic.” However this column also picked the Indianapolis Indians to finish third. They were third for a lone time, but when the closing bell sounded the Hoosiers were fifth. , . . According to the betting odds sent out of Detroit today the Tigers are 6 to 5 favorites to annex the opening tilt and the Cardinals are 6 to 5 favorites to capture the seties. n n n nan lACK CUDDY of the United Pres* pieked the Cardinals to grab off the National League "hag when he made selections in the spring, but he chose Washington to finish first in the American. However, he was •’close” on Detroit, naming the Tigers second. Avery small few picked the Bengal* to land on top. They finished fifth last year. The climb from fifth to first was a long step and proves that Manager Mickey Cochrane performed more or less of a miracle in his first season as a team pilot. He is entitled to the laurel wreath. The Irish pepper pot succeeded in convincing his players that they were better ball players than the 1933 averages indicated. a - a nun r | A HE weather report out of Detroit today read as follows: ‘Fair but 1 distinctly cool for the first conflict of the championship play tomorrow.

Detroit has a great advantage in club batting, based on the statistics, with a seasons club average of .300 against .288 for St. Louis. The Tigers also have the shade in fielding, with .973 against .972. The big league statisticians have it figured out that the best five Tigers pitchers have a general won and lost average of .671 against .673 for the best quintet of Cardinal hurlers. Due to the fact that the Nalional League pennant hung in the balance until the last day of the season the statisticians were caught napping on the usual pre-series comparative ‘’dope.” All of the advance statistics this year were based on the New York Giant* and Tigers.

CARDINALS ARRIVE AT DETROIT FOR SERIES

Dizzy May Be Mound Choice, Frisch Admits St. Louis Pilot, Nervous ami Undecided. Orders 2*Hour Practice. By i nil' <1 Prrss DETROIT. Oct. 2 —Frankie Frisch, just a little jittery and needing a shave, brought his intrepit St. Louis Cardinals to Detroit today to play the Tigers in the world series which starts at Navin field tomorrow. The Cards came here on an allPullman special which was run as the second section of the regular | overnight Wabash train. Frankie, the New Yorker who was the sparkplug of the Cards in their blistering ' National League pennant drive, was the first of! the train. ‘lt Might Be Dir* "Nope. I don't know a thing about my starting pitcher.” he said. “I don't know who it will be and more than that I don't know who won’t get the job.” Was there a 50-50 chance that it! would be Dizzy Dean? "Os course it might be Diz. But ' I’m on the level. I don't know now and I won't decide until tomorrow and you can bet a week's pay on that. ‘‘l'm putting on a practice at 1:30.” Frisch said. "Yes, probably will last two hours.” Take It in Stride Frankie said that ‘some of the boys” were still a bit tired after their long, hectic drive to the pennant, but that most of them just "took it in their stride.” Frisch seemed drawn and nervous, but he insisted that “I never felt better in my life.” A battery of photographers barricaded the station platform and herded Frankie, Diz and Daf Dean, old Dazzy Vance and some more into a group picture which will be captioned "Cards Wave Greeting to Detroit Fans.” Then the players climbed into cabs and were sirened to their hotel by a brace of motorcycle cops.

Where Third, Fourth and Fifth Games Will Be Played

Fear of New *.Deanitis * Malady Seizes Detroit Apprehension Rises as Dreaded Dizzy-Daffy Epidemic Descends on Auto City: Tiger Fans Preferred N. Y.

ll Y JOE WILLIAMS Times Special Sports Writer DETROIT, Oct. 2.—The good people out here are openly disappointed afid not a little aoprenhensive -at the sudden turn in events which send their beloved Tigers into the world scries tomorrow against the Cards instead of the Giants. *

Typical of the mental attitude of outlanders, the good people felt it would have been a much greater civic triumph to have won from a New York club than any other club in the league. This of course stems from the familiar psychology of embarrassing the city slicker. It won’-; be so much fun beating the Cards from St. Louis, because after all, St. Louis is just another homey city, devoid of wickedness, smugness and brassy sophistication. Practically a brother city, when you come right down to it. And another thing, the good people out here feel ihc Giants would have been much easier to beat. It is actually shocking to discover what little respect Mr. Bill Terry's used-to-be chamnions commanded on the banks of Lake Erie. They would have to be lucky to win one game, everybody said. an ft BUT now that the Cards are to furnish the opposition there has been a change in sentiment. Outwardly there is the same confidence that Mr. Mickey Cochrane’s young men will win. no matter what, but this is what you might call courtesy confidence. It won’t stand a close chemical analysis. Actually the good people are none too sure, and neither are the Tigers themselves. For weeks they have been planning and preparing to meet the Giants; they have devised defensive measures and fashioned offensive drives; they have played and replayed the series on a theoretical diamond against a what-might-happen background. And then suddenly they look up and an entirely different person is sitting in the opposite corner. To picture their emotions, try to imagine a heavyweight fighter, say Steve Hamas, who has trained for weeks to meet Art Lasky, stepping into the ring on the night of the fight and finding Max Baer there waiting for him. It might readily be somewhat confusing. tt n n A STRANGE virgulent epidemic which has been diagnosed as Deanitis appears to be sweeping over the city too. This is a pitching malady that strikes twice in the same place. Eminent medics haven't j yet been able to determine whether ! the original attack is worse than the relapse or vice-versa. All agree that I one way or another it is a pretty j terrible thing to inflict on man or beast. Until the two Dean brothers. Dizzy and Daffy, took personal charge of l the Cards’ pennant situation, and. between them, pitched an unsettled, unharmonious club into the world series, the good people out here were convinced that Mr. Schoolboy Rowe represented the last ultimate phrase in throwing a baseball past the hitter. But now—well, they aren’t so sure about that, either. In academic circles the odds are always against a schoolboy when he faces a Dean. It may be just twice as discouraging on the diamond when a schoolboy has to face a pair of Deans. There has been so much in the newspapers about the Deans the last week or so that the good people out here are about ready to believe that every player in the National League is named Dean. It has gotten so that when one of the locals bumps into a stranger on the street he shies away and says, ‘pardon me. , Mr. Dean.” . n a a IT is difficult to refrain from exaggeration and lurid speech in ] discussing the Deans, The Deans ! are a living, breathing, pulsating re- | futation to the gloomy cry of the j baseball Tories that the Olympian era of the game has long since passed. Consider them, for a moment as pitchers and personalities; they won a pennant for Frankie FTisch this year. They may very j easily go further and win a world j championship. From the artistic and dramatic i side the series has been improved 50 per cent by the fact that the

amazing Cards have replaced the mechanical Giants with their egotistic, sullen manager and his yesMr. Terry puppets. And, of course, the Cards are amazing only because of the Dean Brothers—Dizzy and Daffy. Blue Devils Gird for Irish Fracas Nipper Reduces Squad to Minimum. Intensive workouts are on the daily menu of the Shortridge football team as coach Bop Nipper grooms his warriors for the game with Cathedral at the Butler bowl Friday afternoon. Coach Nipper held a dummy scrimmage at the north side field yesterday, and glossed over errors that occurred in the Jefferson tilt.

Oct. 2.—The New Orleans Pelicans needed a victory today to clinch their Dixie series with Galveston. Manager Larry Gilbert was expected to send Dennis Galehouse, powerful young right - hander, against the Bucs today. The latter team was to use veteran Jimmy Walkup. Galveston stayed in the series yesterday by winning, 11 to 9, in a contest that saw thirty-two safeties driven to all parts of the park. New Orleans has won three games and Galveston two.

Purdue, Notre Dame Face Opening Football Tests Triumph of Irish and Boilermaker Teams Would Make State Grid Start Highly Successful. BY DICK MILLER Hoosier college football, off to a great start, swings into high gear this week with Purdue and Notre Dame getting their first competitive action. If the other tw ; o members of Hoosierdom's big three begin as successfully as Indiana did last week-end, the start of the pigskin season will be a howling success in this state. .

Indiana, pepped up to high hopes, worked hard this week for its invasion of Ohio State Saturday. Coach Bo McMillin and his charges exceeded all expectations when they trounced the Ohio University eleven, 27-0, in the opening game. At Lafayette and South Bend a pair of Texas elevens will be tested by Purdue and Notre Dame. Rice Institute, boasting two of the greatest half backs in the country, will meet Purdue. Rice has a victory and tie to its credit, defeating Loyola of New Orleans, 12-2, and tying Louisiana State, 9-9. When Texas and Notre Dame collide in the Irish stadium the game will have side attractions. Jack Chevigney, former Notre Dame star half back and later assistant to Knute Rocknd*and Hunk Anderson, is mentor of the Texas eleven, a position he assumed this fall. The game also will mark inauguration of Notre Dame's new coaching under Elmer Layden, former Four Horseman. Despite the fact the southerners have had experience, it is our guess that Hoosierdom's reputation will not suffer in either contest. Franklin Coming Here The Franklin-Butler clash here Friday night in the north side bowl will be between teams which emerged victorious in their opening skirmishes. The Bulldogs took Ball State, 13-4, while the Grizzlies trounced Rose Poly, 18-6. Butler's new gild coaches, Tony Hinkle and Wally Middlesworth, found room for improvement of their eleven and sent the Bulldogs through long and hard scrimmages while the errors were fresh in their minds. Roy Tillotson’s veteran eleven, most of which figured in Franklin's 16-2 victory over Butler last year, is further strengthened by the return of Isselhart, big tackle of the 1932 team. Oakland City entertains a tough foe. Eastern Illinois Normal, after losing to De Pauw Saturday. Central Normal and Ball State renew their rivalry at Muncie. The outcome is a toss up. Tigers to Defend Record De Pauw, undefeated, untied and unscored on in eight games, seven of j them last season, entertains Coach Bill Slvker's Evansville Aces at | Greencastle. The Aces suffered a | 20-0 setback at The hands of Indi--1 ana State in their opener. Wabash, smarting under a 6-0 de- | feat at the Viands of Hanover, will |be hard to get along with. Their I opponents, Manchester, should be , equally so, due to their 28-12 win over Bluffton (O.) college last week. Hanover looks like a winner in its home game with Earlham. and Rose Poly should take St. Joseph college into camp at Rensselaer. The game at Terre Haute between Indiana State and Valparaiso should be one of the best secondary games of the day. Both teams have great ball carriers and experienced lines. The Uhlans last week-end defeated Illinois Normal, 15-0, for their twenty-third victory in twenty-five starts. trac7cox>oo much FOR TOMMY CORBETT By United Press CHICAGO. Oct. 2.—Tracy Cox. 140. Indianapolis, scored a technical knockout over Tommy Corbett, 140. Omaha, in the sixth round of a scheduled ten-round bout here last night.

Perry Begins Play in Pacific Tourney Menzel Withdraws Because of Ankle Injury. By United Press BERKELEY. Cal., Oct. 2. Fred Perry, seeded No. 1 and world’s outstanding amateur, was to make his initial appearance today in the Pacific coast tennis championships. Perry's' opponent in a secondround match was Edmund Levy Jr. The favorite drew a bye in the first round when Robert Braly, Los Angeles, defaulted. The first surprise of the tournament came with the withdrawal of Roderick Menzel, the Czechoslovakian net star, who injured his ankle while practicing. 'X-ray pictures showed the foreign ace had suffered a severe sprain. Foxx Signs 3-Year Contract to Catch By l nitcet Press PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 2.—Jimmy Foxx. slugging first baseman, has signed a three-year contract with the Athletics, Connie Mack, veteran manager of the. team, announced. Foxx will captain the Athletics in 1935 from the catcher’s box, instead of his present position at first base. BURTON ADDS TO RECORD By I nited Press MIAMI. Fla..
