Too many injuries already have plagued the Y camp and Eddie is not taking any more chances before Che Wyoming game Here Saturday. .Despite the fact that almost everyone 3 thinking that the Cougara are "pointing for the Utah game a week hence, the team anu the coaching staff are definitely worried about this Cowbov crew. A loss to the Laramfc team would throw the Blue and White out of the championship cham-pionship race so the game is being r taken 1 seriously. . . As was pointed- out yesterday, in the Quarterback Club meetinsr . the CowboyB held1 the Cougars scorless for the first half last year and had a hard hitting team. As thev only io3t three lettermen from 1937, the Wyoming team should be vastly Improved this season and be able o- stage a real battle.

For the Chicago Cubs the one and only Dizzy Dean, the $185,000 beauty, the man with the dead arm who is trying to get by on control -and cunning now that the zip has gone from his fast one. Never Lost One For the New York Yankees Lefty "Goofy" Gomez, the fireball fire-ball flinger from Broadway, the skinny Southpaw who has started five World Series games and never gone to the lockers a loser. The Cubs, outpitched, outhit and outfielded in . yesterday's opener, go into today's game desperately des-perately needing a victory lest this -whole business end abruptly abrupt-ly when twilight closes in on the fourth game in New York. Manager Man-ager Gabby Hartnett flung his best pitcher. Big- Bill Lee, -against the Yankees yesterday and when the last, out was made the Cubs were on the short end of a 3 to 1 score. What the good citi- zens of Chicago want to know ts if Lee can't beat the Yankees, who can ? Gomez Money Pitcher Everybody, including the Cubs, knows what Gomez can do. Sure, he lives up to his nickname of Goofy by doing thinks like pausing paus-ing in the middle of a ball game to watch an airplane fly over the park. But he also is just about the best money pitcher in baseball base-ball whose fast one gets faster when the enemy puts men on the bases and when every pitch is weighted down with cash. But who knows, save Jerome Herman Dean himself, what Dizzy can do, now that muscle and nerve V his long right arm have turned traitor and left him a cripple in what could be the greatest "hour of his life? Who knows what Dizzy is thinking deep tack in his mind? Whp knows whether Ihia (confidence has disappeared with his speed? Well, Gabby Hartnett thinks "he knows.; That is why the Cubs' manager, rolling his words out around a fat cigar, sat in the clubhouse after yesterday's game and said, "Diz, you go tomorrow." tomor-row." This I the Day Diz just nodded and kept on knotting his tie. So this is the day you have been waiting for, the. day when 'Old Diz sends his "no'thing- ball," big as a balloon and alow as cold sorghum, up there to the plate where the most murderous hitters in baseball will be waiting for it. This ,is the day when Phil Wrigley, owner own-er of the Cubs, finds out wheth er lie threw his money , to the winds when he gave the St. Louis Cardinals' $185,000 and' some pretty fair ball players for Old Diz. The Yankees, have a fine contempt con-tempt for Old i Diz .ability to stop them and .enough people share that opinion to bring about lots of .even money bets that he wont be in there today after the fifth inning. But Hartnett is playing 'his own hunches. .He doesn't have to start Dean, for he has a younger, fresher man, Clay . Bryant, feady to go. But Hartnett is an Irishman to ride his' hunches hard and this morning morn-ing he has one that Old Diz will jam the Yankees contemptuous words down their throats. .' Unless the Yankees regain Hhelr batting eyes overnight it shouldn't be such a tough job. They looked like the: "hitless wonders" out; there yesterday, popping puny little singles : over the infield and driving lucky hits through shortstop and-scond. THe walls . and bleachers at Wrigley Field, which -were scheduled. ! to take such, a lhumping, from the Yanks, at 3 still unscarred. .The 44,0OA rs0ns ,whd - saw yesterday's yester-day's game couldn't believe . that .

Joe Gordon a pair of. wraiths who made stabbtab stops, impossible catches and throws standing on their heads. It was one of the greatest World Series fielding exhibitions and if it pro ved anything any-thing it was that the Yankees will win one way if they can't another. Red Ruffing pitched reliable but not brilliant ball for the Yankees. He was in trouble frequently fre-quently and he gave up nine hits, but every time the Cubs rose np to smite him from the box, si gray streak in a Yankee uniform would' come tearing, around second sec-ond base and choke off the rally, it was Gordon's first World Series game and in the fifth in ning he gave them something to remember mm cy. Kipper tjouins blasted one toward second base that had "hit" written all over it. Gordon dived to his right, twisted, his left hand around in some sort of contortionist position posi-tion and came up with the ball to throw Collins out at first by a whisker. i -Lee was defeated- but not jdls- graced. He left the game in the eighth inning for a pinch hitter after he had given up 11 hits, some of them lucky pop flies that the wind carried just away from outstretched Cubs' fingers. If it hadn't been for the legerdemain legerde-main of the twin terrors, Crosetti Cros-etti and Gordon, Lee might have1 been on the long end of the score. Bowling MAJOR LEAGUE W.

He also stated that he would . be glad to win by a single point. Nilsen Improving Reed Niisen, rugged fullback, is improving daily at his position. Reed was shifted from tackle at the beginning of the season and is proving one. the most dangerous danger-ous ball carriers on the 'team.
