Quite a Record

In the seven years Joe McCarthy has managed the Yankees, none of his teams has finished below second and

three have been pennant winners.

HE fact that Indiana came so close to deadlocking or winning its game at Minnesota Saturday caused Crimson stock to soar as the nation’s grid teams returned to work today. ... The Hoosiers are to celebrate home-coming at Bloomington this week and Illinois will be their opponent. . . . Illini stock also ballooned when Bob Zuppke's warrviors played a scoreless tie with Notre Dame, a situation which is sure to lead football fans to scramble for tickets for the Indiana-Illinois clash. It will be the Big Ten opener for the Illini and Indiana will be the only member of the Hoosier Big Three at home. . . . Purdue is scheduled at Northwestern this week and Notre Dame at Carnegie Tech. » = ® INNESOTA scored a touchdown in the second quarter Saturday and then had a tough time protecting the load as the Hoosiers grew belligerent. . . . Indiana held for downs on ils d-yard line as the first half closed and returned after the intermission to cause many anxious moments on the Minnesota bench. . . . Bo McMillin's men dominated the play throughout the second half and during this time made five first downs to Minnesota's one. It was a marvelous comeback and the Gophers were

backed against their goal line when the tussle ended. ” ”

One Run at a Time Strategy

Under Attack

Extra Power Which the Fans ~ Demand Won for Yanks, In His Opinion.

By JOE WILLIAMS Times Special Writer

NEW YORK, Oct. 1ll.—Another World Series has been turned over to posterity and once again the betier team from the better league won. The Yankees beat the Giants four games to one, The only way they could have done better was to win in’ four straight. This in itself 1s argueable evidence that there is a marked difference in the playing strength of the two leagues. But taken as an individual instance it would not be conclusive, since it is something more than fantasy that unpredictable things do happen in a short series. But they don’t happen year in and year

cut. And the figures show the American League team has won 10 out of the last 15 play offs. I don't see hcw the most lyrical National League follewer can, or shouid even want to try to, get around these figures. They would seem o teil the whole story and with convincing finality.

Popularity Threatened

As supporting testimony it might be pointed out that in this stretch the American League representative —which happened to be the Yankees each time—swept the playoffs on three different occasions without | the loss of a single game, On an- | other occasion, in 1929, the Athletics

result was duplicated. The fact is the decadence of the National League, as illustrated by the records has reached a point where it threatens the continued popularity, if not the continued use- | fulness, of the World Series—on the one hand, as an attraction warranting excessive admission prices; on the other, as a logical medium for deciding baseball supremacy. Under the existing conditions the percentage of success is so strongly in favor of the American Leaguers | from the start, the element of com- | petition is lamentably reduced, and | that's the box office lure. This | series, for example, was supposed to | have had the big town by the ears. | Yet not one of the five games was [a sellout. There were extenuating | circumstances vesterday, The | esiner was miserable. But this couldn't be said of any of the other games. Power Must Be Added

The artistic side of the National Lisagkie must be improved if the illusion of rivalry—a very profitable | and essential illusion, by the way—is to be sustained. The National Leaguers have clung to an outmoded form of baseball. They lean too heavily on the conservative side. They still play one-run baseball, | That went out of vogue when Babe Ruth started hitting home runs. In some quarters surprise is expressed that there are so many sluggers in the Amercian League and so few in the National. The answer is comparatively simple. The American Leaguers go out for this type of player; they concentrate on the extra base hitters; their scouts are constantly combing the brambles for big guys who swing from the hips. This isn't to suggest the National Leaguers will deliberately pass up a long hitter, but since they play a different type of baseball, speaking in the general sense, they are more readily satisfied with a player who vill fit snugly into their one-run-at-a-time formula. This was all right back in the days of the hitless wonders—but how many customers appreciate that kind of baseball today? Power was supposed to be the determining factor in this series. It was—plus pitching. The American Leaguers not only displayed move power, but better pitching.

And in| the series just ended that statistical |

has sighed a two-year contract (o pilot the Cincinnati Reds. There was talk that Donie Bush and Casey Stengel had the best chance. There also was talk about Rabbit Maranville, Gabby Hartnett and Tony Lazzeri.

Friends Doubt Bush Would Accept Offer

Owen (Donie) Bush, mentioned as possible successor to Bill McKechnie as manager of the Boston Bees, has returned to his home in Indianap-

'olis but could not be reached today

for comment, Friends, however, pointing to a lucrative contract he holds with the Minneapolis Millers, - doubted that the Boston club would make an offer sufficiently . attractive for : him to make a change. Donie is known to have been © working on plans to bolster the Millers for next vear's race, His team finished third this year. If Bush does eventually go to Boston it would be his fifth post as a big league manager. He managed the White Sox in 1930 and 1931; the Senators in 1922 and 1923, the Pirates in 1927 to 1929, winning the pennant in his first year with the Pittsburgh club and losing to the yankees in the World Series. In between his career in the big leagues he managed the Indianapolis club of the American Association, from 1924 to 1926, inclusive. He went to Minneapolis in 1932 and returned there in 1934 and has since remained. In his playing days he starred with the Detroit Tigers.

He led with his hitting, his fielding and his dashing play that stood out in every game, “Poosh ‘em up Tony” is at his best around second base and at the plate when the blue chips are on the line and the ball game's on the fire, and he stood on the peaks today, one of the most glamorous and valuable players of all time, Lazzeri and his teammates col: lected approximately $5836 apiece for winning their second straight “subway” series, while the Giants each pocketed the losers’ share of approximately $3891. The players’ pool of $417,305.97, based on the receipts for the first four games, was the third largest in Series history. The 238,146 fans who watched the five-game series saw the Yanks walk away with the first three contests by scores of 8-1, 8-1 and 5-1, only to be stopped dead in the fourti Saturday by Carl Hubbell, veteran Giants’ southpaw, who pitched his mates to a 7-3 victory. Lefty Gomez, the goofey one, who

The | Giants rapped Gomez for 10 hits, but | tiey could not score in the clutches. The only way they ever got a man around was when Mel Ott hit the only Giants’ homer of the Series with Dick Bartell on base in the third inning to tie the score,

Lefty Gets a Laugh

That was only drama for Gomez. Fidgeting out there on the muddy hill (it rained all night before), he never for one minute looked like he was afraid of any of the Giants. When an airplane flew overhead, he gazed up at it. When Johnny (Grandma) Murphy, Yanks’ money-in-the-bank relief pitcher, ‘started warming up in the bullpen, Gomez looked way out there and chuckled. When arguments raged about a catcher’s interference with a hitters’ bats, Lefty only laughed. Every time the Giants threatened, | Gomez slammed that fireball of his down the alley. And when things got really serious there was old Tony scampering around second base saving the ball game. The Giants had a man on in the fifth ready to start a rally when Lazzeri scooped up a grounder to retire the side. They had two men on in the sixth when Lazzeri gobbled up Burgess Whitehead’s grounder to end the inning. In the seventh they put two men on again. when Lazzeri smothered Ripples roller and threw him out at first. The run which won the title, decided the Series and kept the Yanks on baseball's pinnacle was scored by Lazzeri, He swung with all his might at one of Cliff Melton's pitches in the fifth inning. He met the ball solidly and it took wings Hank Leiber and Jimmy Ripple chased it all the way to the right field bleachers, approximately 450 feet from home plate—one of the longest drives in World Series annals. Gomez Comes Through

Tony pulled up at third. Bill Terry, manager of the Giants, called the infield in on the grass to try to catch Tony, at the plate. Gomez, a .200 hitter who swings like a wash woman, was up there. a hot drive toward Whitehead.

United Press Staff Correspondent 11.—Age before beauty, they always say. so today Tony Lazzeri, a homely. wrinkled hombre of 34 years, emerged as the

ball caromed off the Giants’ second baseman's glove and Lazzeri scored the winning run. The Yanks added another which they didn't need but which helped Gomez in the clutches, when Lou Gehrig doubled Lefty home. Two home runs, one by Myril Hoag in

Maggio in the third, were the opening blasts that greeted Mountain Music Melton when he stepped out to duplicate Hubbell’s Saturday triumph. Melton was replaced by a pinch hitter in the fifth, and Al Smith and Don Brennan finished for the Giants. The Yanks played errorless ball throughout the series—the first team in history not to make at least one bobble. The Giants finished with nine errors, distributed through the first, third and fourth games. Will He Come Back Lazzeri, who sparkled in the field and at bat, wiped out the last stubborn stain of the 1926 series when he was the goat, a rookie whom the great Grover Cleveland Alexander struck out with the bases loaded in the hig moment of the seventh and deciding game. ! He walked off the field yesterday after one of the greatest performances under fire in the World Series history. He led every one in batting with an average of 400 in a fivegame series where every pitcher bears down all the way. In the field he played flawlessly, handling 27 chances without a bobble. He raced over to second and made plays, he skipped over near first and gobbled up grounders. He trapped pop flies. He swung a dangerous, damaging bat. Tony is packing his duds, the togls of his trade, and going home. He's through he says, hanging up his glove, never to come back to the majors again unless he gets a job as a major league manager. But there are some who say that after he looks at the record, he'll be back in there when the Yanks open their 1936 campaign.

NATIONAL PLAYS OLD-TIME GAME, JOE SAY

Through four World Series games, fans vainly waited for Joe Die Maggio of the Yankees to crack out one or more home runs.

But it was fifth and final game that Joe came
