It’s Time to Sing a Song
Of Praise
for Cards’
Spirited Jimmy Brown
St. Louis Is Still on Reds’ Heels Today Mainly Because of Fiery Shortstop’s Timely Swat in Ninth; Derringer Hangs Up 23d Victory.
NEW YORK, Sept. 22 U. P.).—Now seems the proper time to sing a song of praise for Jimmy Brown, scrappy little infielder of the St. Louis
Cardinals.
Long overlooked because of the ballyhoo for Joe Medwick and Johnny

Brown. The hustling St. Louis shortstop started the winning rally yesterday in the ninth which enabled the Cards to pull a victory out of the fire against the Dodgers and maintain their 2';-game margin behind
the Reds. 9-4. He had only to get Brown | out. But getting Brown out in aj] clutch is one of baseball's toughest jobs. Little Jimmy slashed out a single, and before Hamlin could put | out the fire he was licked. Lynn Myers ran for Brown. Gutteridge | looped a single to short center, and | Myers sped to third. Slaughter | beat cut a slow roller to Camilli] and Myers ran home with the tying | run, Then Medwick doubled to left, scoring Gutteridge with the! winning taily. Reds Have 12 to Play
The Cards’ victory was a highly important one. If they had lost, they would have been 3!: games behind the Reds. a gap almost too large to bridge at this stage of the race. The Reds have 12 games left (eight with Pittsburgh and four
with St. Louis), and the Cards have 10 (six with Chicago and four with| Cincinnati). The Reds made it 11 victories in| their last 15 games when they beat | the Phillies, 8-3. Paul Derringer | hung up victory No. 23 to score his| eighth straight this season and his 11th triumph over the Phils in two straight years. He hasn't lost a game to them in that time. Lonnie Frey hit his second homer in two days with a mate on base, while] Myers and McCormick collected) three hits each in the Reds’ 13-hit| attack on Pearson and Kerksieck.

The Red Sox won from the Browns, 6-2, on Denny Galehouse's seven-hitter. Rudy York's single with the bases loaded in the ninth gave the Tigers a 7-6 win over the Athletics. A six-run rally in the
eighth enabled Cleveland to trim
Washington, 6-3.

Smile Is a Dead G
He Has 11 Lettermen Back And He’s Changing His System Some.
By TOM OCHILTREE Times Staff Writer GREENCASTLE, Ind. Sept. 22.— DePauw's Tigers have become avid innovators this year, and while the following dispatch can't reveal any official secrets, the fact that Coach Raymond R. (Gaumy) Neal is trying new stuff is a tipoff that there is some “football gold in them Putnam County hills.” For you can paste this in your hat as a general rule that holds good. When a coach is fretting about his material and wondering if nervous indigestion will catch up with him before the first snow flies, he doesn’t go in for anything fancy. The old simple, tried formula that has gotten him through lean years in the past has to be good enough in such a situation. But things aren't like that at old Asbury. As a service to his many friends it is a pleasure to report that Gaumy is the picture of sparkling health. His eyes are alight, his jowls full and there is a spring in his walk. It's No Soft Job Remember, too, that coaching football at DePauw isn't generally
classed as one of life's cozier spots. To steal a phrase from the New,
