Cardinals Intend To Upset Favored Yankees

ST. LOUIS UPI— Hot-shot Ray Sadecki and old pro Whitey Ford match left-handed pitching strength today when the St. Louis Cardinals set out to prove that upsetting the New York Yankees in the World Series could be easier than winning the National League pennant. With scalpers getting $50 for tickets priced at $8. a capacity crowd of 31.000 will turn out at tiny, antiquated Busch Stadium to see the teams with the best World Series records of all major league teams face each other for the fifth time. The Yankees are 20-8 in overall series competition, the Cardinals are 63 and they stand 2-2 against each other. The odds remained stable, favoring the Yankees at 13-10 in the first game and 17-10 in the series, with the weatherman promising cool, crisp weather for the 2 p. m., EDT. starting time. The possibility that the momentum that carried the Cardinals to the pennant may still be favoring them was suggested in late developments Tuesday when it became official that slugging third-baseman Ken Boyer and slick-fielding second baseman Julian Javier will be in today's starting lineup while shortstop Tony Kubek will be lost to the Yankees for the series. Kubek. who had a lack-lustre season although he is regarded as a key man in the smooth-functioning Yankee infield, will be replaced by carefree Phil Linz, a .250-hit-ter who is capable at many positions. Manager Johnny Kean spoke for all the Cardinals when he refused to predict an outright series victory but dismissed the thought that the Redbirds might find the pressure of the classic too much for them.

• The pressure has been heavy and we've gone through it,” said Keane, referring to the tense ordeal of the final days of the National League race. "It did us a world of good. I'm sure it prepared the players. I know it prepared me. “I though there was pressure hurting us last week,” he continued. "And we felt it mount until the middle of the last game. Then, when the big Philadelphia scores began to go up on the scoreboard against Cincinnati, we relaxed right away Were pretty loose and we're going into this in real good shape.”

their findings and recommendations to the board.” Paul presented the officers of three other cities, figures on the club's finances and attendance, and promises and committments for the city of Cleveland.

Cleveland Gets 10-Day Reprieve CLEVELAND. Ohio UPI— The city of Cleveland has received a 10-day reprieve on the decision whether the Indiana baseball franchise will remain here. Gabe Paul, president and general manager of the Indians, said after a four-hour closed meeting Tuesday that the board of directors will wait until Oct. 16 to see the results of an advance season ticket sales drive for 1965. "The board recognizes the Indians cannot contiue to operate on the same basis as in 1963 and 1964,” he said in a statement. "However, they feel that Cleveland officials and civic groups should be given a opportunity to stimulate sufficient support to enable the club to remain here. "The board, therefore, voted unanimously to postpone action pending further study, investigation and consideration and direct the officers to report

Still Wants To Move Athletics CHICAGO UPI — Charles O. Finley apparently is preparing another request to move his Athletics from Kansas City to a more profitable locale. The A s owner said he has summoned his board of directors for a meeting to discuss the past four years of operations in Kansas City. Finley's announcement came after the Cleveland Indians’ directors huddled to discuss possible transfer of the francise and was obviously intended to pave the way for the Athletics' third request to move this year. Finley said major stockholders and board members would gather in his Chicago insurance office at noon Friday.

KOKOMO, UPI—Dr. Milton Boyer is going to forget about dentistry the rest of this week —and perhaps part of next— to cheer for his two brothers in the World Series. But he indicated he ll be , squirming in his seat when i brother Ken of the St. Louis Cardinals opposes brother jCletis of the New York Yankees when the series opens in St. Louis Wednesday. Both are third basemen and key members of their respective teams. The Boyers—all seven brothers—will hold a family reunion at the Series. Six of them have been in organized baseball including "Doc” Boyer, who with his wife. Lois, will catch a plane from Indianapolis to St. Louis in time for the opener. Boyer, a dentist here five years, said he made his reservations to attend the New York portion of the series two weeks

ago.

"I wasn't so sure about the Cardinals,” he said. ‘T've seen all five World Series that Clete's been in and I was in Cincinnati two weeks ago to see the Cards play and I really didn't think they could win it then.” But when they did—on the last day of the regular season Sunday—"Doc” prepared to close shop and head for St. Louis. Pressed to predict outcome of the Series. Boyer allowed, “Well, I'd like to see Kenny von a World Series ring.” "I guess "I'm pulling for the Cardinals to win in seven games. Clete said he hoped it would only go four and I imagine Kenny feels the same way.” Boyer and his brothers got

Evansville, Ball State Take Early Lead In ICC Offensive

There seems to be no place for the slow of foot or the weak of arm in this year's Indiana Collegiate Conference football derby. Experiencing its wildest scoring binge in recent years, the loop in two weeks has produced 258 points in six games, a spread of 21.5 points per team per game. Over the same stretch last year the same number of games went into the books at a very normal, unspectacular rate of 10.5 points per club. Ball State, Evansville and Indiana State, all undefeated, are, of course, the big contributors to the burgeoning average*. Evansville, dormant and at the bottom for two years, has hammered DePauw and St. Joseph's. 35-6 and 42-0; Ball State has swelled the average with 28-14 and 23-20 verdicts over Butler and DePauw; and

Indiana State has cooled off Valparaiso, 35-6. A pair of teams with but one loop game on the books is leading this week’s team statistics. Indiana State in its sole date with Valparaiso propelled itself to the top in Total Offense (354.0 yards); Rushing Offense (283.91; and total Defense (151.0). Butler, though losing to Ball State, came up with 173 passing yards to claim this department, 25 yards ahead of Valparaiso. Two-game winner Evansville is second in Total Offense I3290> and Total Defense (166.0), and Ball State is just behind Indiana State in Rushing Offense (278.91. Ball State's all-conference back Merv Rettenmund and Valpo's ICC MV Back. Dave Lass, resumed leadership in individual departments they won last fall. Rettenmund is tops in rush-

ing with 214 yards in 23 carries, and Lass paces total offense with 315 yards and passing offense with 297 yards. Evansville's bombardier, Kim DeVault, rides second behind Lass in total offense and passing and actually carries a per day average that outdistances Lass, 10.2 yards to 4.5 yards. DeVault’s teammates. Bob Glaser, is literally out running the field in the pass receiving department with six catches for a total of 177 yards. Valparaiso's Jim Konard and Fred Miller have seven catches apiece, but for less yardage— 102 and 91. A real race is developing in the kicking category where three punters are knocking at the 40-yard club. Butler s Van Bailey and Ball State’s Nickey Baker are tied with a 39.2 average. and Dick Raddatz of Valparaiso is only a bounce back at 39.1.

Twenty-eight points in two games have pushed fullback Dave Reeves of Ball State to the top spot in scoring. His closest competition comes from Evansville's Glaser with 24 and Glaser’s backfield teammate, Mike Madriaga, who has 21. Ball State this weekend will have a chance to fatten its lead in the standings, entertaining' St. Joseph's in a homecoming , tilt at Muncie. Down south, meanwhile, highflying Indiana State and Evansville collide in a suspenseful Dad's night game, not only pitting perfect ICC slates, but also unblemished season rec-

ords.

Butler (0-1) and DePauw (0-21 will mix up in Indianapolis in a "must” game for both clubs, and Valparaiso takes the weekend off, facing Washington of Missouri in St. Louis.

« DESPITE the most relentless Health controls, epidemic outbreaks of diseases still occur. The city of Houston, Tex., hats been the unfortunate victim of an epidemic of encephalitis

(or sleeping sickness), even though its health controls are of the high-

est order.

This epidemic serves to emp h a s i z e that there can be no Dn. Coleman letup in the vigilance against the causes of disease. Viral encephalitis was concentcated in Houston, but also was reported in isolated cases in Florida, Illinois and Arizona, Spread By Insects This particular type of sleeping sickness or brain fever, one of the many varieties of encephalitis, is spread from animals to man by insects. The Culex, or common mosquito, was the offender in this epidemic. Humsm beings are not ordinarily prone to insect-bom encephalitis as are birds and small animals. The disease, therefone, can be considered a so-called "accident,” from the point of view of public health. Traced To Virus The outbreak in Texas has been traced to a specific virus referred to as the “St. Louis” type. The name derives from the fact that it had produced a severe outbreak of sleeping sickness in that city in 1933. At the present time, there is no known, vaccine for immunizatioa agdiiLL all types of en-

cephalitis. It is important, therefore, that the disease be prevented by scrupulous cleanliness and eradication of these places where insects can pick up the virus. Force Of Experts A bulwark of defense a gainst communicable disease exists in Atlanta, Ga. Here, the United States Public Health Service houses a concentrated force of experts on epidemics. When the call came out from Houston, this center in Atlanta sent out an army of health experts to battle and destroy every stagnant ditch and breeding place where the Culex mosquito might be flourishing. Thousands of gallons of Diesel oil blanketed the stagnant areas to destroy the potential earners of this dread disease. Emphasizes Control Meosnes The unfortunate victims have highlighted the importance of never-ending watchfulness of every area where the virus of this type of encephalitis may breed. Concentrated control measures are being established so that even occasional mild epidemics can be prevented. At the same time, vaccines against sleeping sickness are being prepared, with more and more success.
