Simla Dlavera will have nothina By HENRT United Frees NEW YORK, Oct. 6 (UP) St Nope, that isn't Scandinavlar college yell or some mysterious c If you'll just read it backward' you'll have my world series selections selec-tions the Yankees in six games.

I have made it a rule to always walk these married men unless the bases were loaded. Increases Hpeed Marriage also inspires the fielding field-ing and running of its uh, uh victims. It has been proved time and again that a shortstop whose wife has her eyes on a home in the suburbs can cover twice as much territory as a single shortstop with no family responsibilities. In the third place, i like the Yankees Yan-kees because their strategy is so simple, that of the Giants so Involved. In-volved. Th Yankee Just bust th ball and run. Th Giants have made baseball actually a game as simple as the mechanism of a wheelbarrowvery wheel-barrowvery Involved. So, It' th Yankees in six gam, with the Yanks taking the first one today by belting Hubbell out of there Inside of six innings. |
