By UNITED PRESS Evald Pyle pitched Toledo into the American *association playoff finals last night with a one-hit victory over Milwaukee. : The Hens will meet Columbus, who qualified by beating Kansas] City, 4 to 3, in 13 innings in the deciding game of the upper bracket.

The winner of the Toledo~ Columbus series will meet the Internationial league champion in the “little world series.” Pyle engaged Eddie Hanyzewskl in a pitching duel and bested the youthful Milwaukee hurler when Toledo scored in the ninth to gain a 1 to 0 decision. Hanyzewski allowed Toledo only four hits. The victory gave the Mud Hens the lower bracket series, four games to two. Columbus came from behind in the late innings to’ tie Kansas City and then scored in the thirteenth inning to win, 4 to 3. The Blues scored in the first, fourth and sixth innings to give Pitcher Chuck Wensloff a 3 to 0 lead, but the Red Birds scored once in the seventh and twice in the eighth to send the game into extra innings. The Red Birds outhit Kansas City, 11 to 10, but played below championship form in committing four errors. ii

Jersey City Whips Newark

By UNITED PRESS The Jersey City Giants rested in the finals of the International league governor’s cup playoffs today waiting to see whether it would be Syracuse or Montreal they will meet for the trdbhy. The Little Giants finished one of the best comebacks in playoff history yesterday when they scored their fourth straight triumph over Newark, 6-2, to e ate the championship Bears in the semi-final round. Montreal meanwhile halted Syracuse, 4-2, after losing three in a row in this semi-final bracket. Dave Koslo went the route in the Little Giants’ victory, spacing nine hits as his mates collected 10 off six Bower tossers. Jersey City, which dropped the first two games, won through a big third inning in which it scored four runs. George Washburn gave up three walks, forcing one man home, and singles by Joe Orengo and Hugh Poland accounted for three more. Poland connected off Milo Candini, who succeeded Washburn on the hill Schoolboy Rowe, recently sent to Montreal by the parent Brooklyn Dodgers, scattered seven hits to give the Royals their first victory in four playoff games against the Chiefs.

A Different Brooklyn Club Blasts Six Pirate Pitchers To Keep Pace With Cardinals

NEW YORK, Sept. 17 (U. P.).—The Brooklyn Dodgers were their old battling, brawling selves today as they went against the dazed Pittsburgh Pirates—praying that the pace-setting St. Louis Cardinals :

victory of the year. A pre-game box seat brawl, which could have happened only in Brooklyn, touched off the fireworks. Three spectators battled with and routed ushers and then, unwisely, heckled Mickey Owen and Walker. The two players went into the stands and won a handy decision before police carried off the trio. Enos Slaughter paced the Cards to victory with his 13th homer of the year in the third and a single in a big sixth inning as the Red Birds bunched five of their nine safeties off Jim Tobin for four runs. Ernie White scattered nine hits, allowing two runs on Ernie Lombardi’s 10th homer of the season with Nanny Fernandez on board. Chicago split with the Phils to replace the Pirates in fifth place. The Cubs dropped the first, 3-1, but took the second, 4-1.

Derringer Stops Giants

Johnny Podgajny bested Claude Passeau in the opener, Benny Warren winning it for him with a tworun homer in the fifth. Hiram Bithorn handcuffed the Phils in the nightcap. Paul Derringer topped Bill Lohrman in a tight duel as the Reds stopped the Giants, 3-1.

Eastern All-Army Football Squad Beats Dodgers, 13-7

BALTIMORE, Sept. 17 (U. P.).—The eastern all-army football team, undefeated in two starts, headed toward a meeting with the bruising Chicago Bears with just a little less confidence today after battling from behind to defeat the fighting Brooklyn Dodgers. Superior firing power, with the weight of its 55-man squad telling in the waning moments, allowed the army relief squadron to. overwhelm the professionals, 13-7, before a crowd of 50,000 last night. ut as long as they were able to give and take on an equal footing, the Dodgers showed themselves niore than a match for Col. Bob Neyland’s charges. Undaunted by the fact that the soldiers had thumped the New York Giants badly in their first start, the Dodgers held a 7-0 lead going into the final period. It was then that the constant hammering of the boys in the red, white and blue uniforms paid

off. Pingel Passing

Brooklyn took the lead early in the second period when Pug Manders plunged over right tackle fromthe 1-yard line to culminate a 75-yard march that took but 14 plays. Dean McAdams, former Washington university star, paced the Brooklyn drive with his running and passing. Merlyn Condit converted.. : Army made its first threat in the third period, driving from its own 40 to the Dodger 13. Feature of this drive was a 29-yard pass from Capt. Johnny Pingel, former Michigan State all-America and ranking officer of the squad, to Pvt. Jack Russell of Baylor. But Russell dropped a goal line pass a few moments later and the pros took over. Dodgers on the Run

The Dodgers kicked out to the soldiers, only to have Pingel's passes

To the Air

With the initial contest of the season only two days away, the Butler Bulldogs polished up their passing attack in scrimmage yesterday, as Coach Frank “Pop” Hedden hopes to bombard the Xavier ModelT with aerials. Norman Williams, George Mingle and Gordon Tanner all took turns at slinging the leather.\ At the end of yesterday's workout, twe more Blue and White gridders were added to the already bulging

injury list. Andy Williams, refurn-

ing letter man, pulled some leg muscles and will probably not be at his end position for the opening tilt. Mingle was also forced to the sidelines when he injured his neck in the late stages of practice. Earlier in the day the backfield drilled on tackling ball carriers. The linemen went through their block-

ing and tackling duties.
