A world series in Provo wouldn't have near the attraction this week that the Brigham Young-Utah football game scheduled in Salt Lake City Saturday commands. Everything points for a natural. Sport enthusiasts throughout the intennountain area hail the game as the year's classic. Brigham Young remains one of the three Utah teams to stay in the "Big-7" title chase as the season sea-son goes into its third week. The Cougars are the only tried team in the conference, having got by two tough opponents. Utah holds a victory over Mon- tanar"State in a non-conference game. That's as far as their games have gone so far. The game with B. Y. U. will be the Redskins' first conference competition. Aggies Surprises U. A.

Coach Dick. Romney's fighting youngsters travel to Denver this week in an effort to make it two straight wins in as many starts. Denver, still smarting from the jB. Y. U. upset, is pointing for the Aggies much more than it did for I the Cougars. ' Although out of the title chase, the Pioneers can do a great deal in helping shape the final outcome Gf the newly formed Mountain States conference. A win over U, A. C. would practically put that ball club out of the top flight. It would give the winner of the Utah-B. Y. U. fracas a more than even chance at the title. Injuries Avoided Brigham Young came out of the Wyoming tussle with some much needed seasoning. It was the first contest in which the Cougars haven t last a regular or two with injuries. Word from Coach Eddie Kimball Kim-ball and the boys this morning indicates in-dicates the "Y" outfit will be at their strongest against the Redskins Red-skins Saturday. Charlie Roberts Jack Christensen's double, is com ing along fast since his injury in the Arizona opener. Roberts should be ready to play a good deal of the game in Salt Lake. , Christensen Sparks Attack Most of the Utah team scouted the "Y-Wydmlng" game Saturday. Satur-day. Their biggest worry seemed to be the consistency of "slippery" Jack Christensen. The Salt Lake outfit will undoubtedly spend most of their scrimmaging this week trying to work up some sort of defense to bottle up the "Y" sensation, Christensen's performance was not the only one to please Cougar Cou-gar supporters. The way in which Ken Soffe kicked the extra points and then a field goal in the closing clos-ing minutes of the game Indicates B. Y. U. has a ball club which can come through in the pinches. Kimball Quizzed By Quarterbackers Coach Eddie Kimball, the strategy strat-egy expert behind the Cougar's drive for the 'Big-7" football title, was guest today of the Salt Lake City Quarterback club. Kimball, along with Coach Ike Armstrong of Utah,, was asked questions from the gallery concerning con-cerning Brigham Young's chances against the Redskins Saturday.

World Cubs Series, No Contest; Hopelessly Outclassed T. ununv ll.I VHfAW United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Oct. 10 (TJ.P)--1 Howdy sucker! I mean you and you and you and you and all of the other 200,833 easy marks who paid genuine money to see four baseball base-ball games which were advertised Sport is not sport unless- it is a contest. To make a contest you must have two good teams or two bad teams. David and Goliath works out only in the Bible. On the best day the Chicago Chi-cago Cubs ever saw (and I'll bet you even money they never saw a best day) they couldn't carry the news to Jake Ruppert that his Yankees haa KnocKed their heads off. Tough Gang Remember all the brave statements state-ments the Cubs made before the series? Remember how Hartnett said 'this Is a tough gfnp that cafn't be stopped? In his heart Hartnett must have known that his team would be lucky to" lead by one run in one inning. I sort of. think Hartnett and his boys were taking you guys for suckers.

T.orv. ingr at it man for man. as I dH several weeks ago when I said that the series would not be worth 15 cents of anvbody'f monev, the Cubs are children an1 th Ysnks are men. Let us start ' with the catchers. Hartnett versus Dickey. Hartnett, the great leader, benched himself after three gmaes and gave up. Difkev was the best player on the field through the four eames. At fiTst base we had Collins versus Gehrig. Geh-rig. Mrs. Collins is the only one who would choose the former. At second base a hogfat Herman was grateful to walk on the same ground Gordon did. At third base nd third base alone were the Cubs superior. Hack was a tremendous tre-mendous player, Rolfe only a so-so so-so one- Let us pass over the Cub outfield as qutcKiy as we can, especially gentlemen named Demaree and Reynolds.

Of the four games played yesterday, yes-terday, three were distinct upsets. The biggest surprise was when the Chicago Bears, leaders of the western division, lost their first game of the season to the Cleveland Rams, 14-7. The Bears still remained in the lead but right in back of them were the Detroit Lions who contributed an upset by licking the Green Bay Packers 17-7. They moved into second place and Green Bay dropped to third. Cleveland is fourth while fifth-place Chicago's Cardinals did not play. The Washington Redskins, also undefeated, lost undisputed pos session of the eastern lead by dropping a 10-7 decision to the New York Giants. The up and coming Brooklyn Dodgers, paced by ace Parker, moved into a tie Pittsburgh 17-7. Dodgers Release Burleigh Grimes NEW YORK, Oct. 10 (IIP) The Brooklyn Dodgers announced today that Burleigh Grimes would not manage the team., in 1939 and said his successor had not yet been selected. . Larry MacPhail, general man ager of the. club, said In a formal statement that the decision "was reached with great reluctance "The Dodgers win have a new manager," MacPhail's 1 statement maid.

For the goat, the box --score gives you Billy Herman, a weak sister at bat all' through .the series and a blunderer afield who made costly errors when the blue chips were down. The Issues, to a laree ' extent. was won and lost on the men who cover second base for the Yankees and Cubs.- Gordon, who. by all odds should have been shaking with the liters because it was hi first year in the big leagues' and his first world series, was a bail of fire at bat and a brilliant streak afield. He had a batting average of ! .400 He knocked in six runs. . He hit two doubles and one home run, among other things. He was in volved in two double plays. He stole a base. He made two errors but he made them the way good ball players commit errorsi by going after stuff and trying for throws that the average second baseman would not stab at. One stop he made close to second base in the first game was one of the great plays of any world series. Gordon dived to his right, got his glove hand twisted around In front of his body in some way and came up w 'Ji a ball that was labeled "single." Weak Hitting As for Herman well, let's look at the record. He batted a puny .188 and time after time he came to bat with Hack who was no slouch in this series on base and was unable to do anything about it. His hitting consisted of three anemic singles In four games. He struck out four times. He made two errros and one of them was a heart-breaker for Big Bill Lee and the Cubs. It was in the second inning of the first game. Lee was blowing the Yankees down and seemed to be on his way to great things. George Selkirk hit a trickier be tween first and second base and Herman charged the ball. On an ordinary day Herman would have gobbled it. But last Wednesday another dav and he handled the ball like a first-class juggler on theold Orpheum circuit. Geh rig scored and that was the turn ing point of the ball game. Yanks Ride Crest So today the Yankees are rid ing the crest of baseball and the bad news is for the seven other American league clubs and the eight in the National league that they are likely to be riding it for years to come. Manager Joe McCarthy said in the clubhouse after yesterday's game that he would stand pat next year. Why shouldn't he, for. with the exception of farst base and a couple of pitchers, ne nas a young, ambitious team that even yet may not have risen to the peak of its power. Many more will bloom where Joe Gordon came from. Kansas City in the Amer ican association and Newark in the International league have just finisher playing for the "little world championship' The Yankees own them both, two teams that are the class of the minor leagues and are - bulging with brdliant young ball players who are going to play . their hearts out for a chance at the big leagues and the money: the Yankees can pay. The Yankee farm system is so well organized that next year a young man named killer from Newark probably will knock one of the current New York- outfield ers out of a Job. Rest assured that whether It's PowelL Selkirk or Hoag who goes, there will be a dozen other major league clubs waiting to grab the man discarded. discard-ed. That's bow good the Yankees are. Dizzy Knocked Out There's not much that can be said for the Cubs in this series. A good ban club was beaten by a great one, and the scores vieU the. story. Gabby Hartnett fought YoutWilh O PHONE (2 unta .the last man was out, but In baseball they pay off on runs, not on spirit. Big BUI Lee, a first class pitcher, deserved a better fate- in both games he started. - - - - Next spring wai give up the answer to the question of whether this series wrote the tend of the Saea of Dizzy Dean. . He was knocked out of the box in Chi cago yesterday, with the bases loaded at Yankee stadium, he came slouching through the shad ows ana was mastered for a double. If this is the end of Diz In baseball and it may be he at least will have plenty of com- pany down the long, long trail to obscur.'ty. It will be a melancholy melan-choly gang of men who made the terrible mistake of shaking thelr fists at the forked lightning called the New York Yankees. The Yanks took the last game 8 to 3. Diz was not the only pathetic Cub out there at Yankee stadium where Hartnett used his every resource, mustered every ounce of his team's strength in an effort to stave off the inevitable for one more day. Lee was pitching his heart out and was doing a good job too up to the second inning, when, much as had happened in the first game, an error of a teammate made his efforts useless. The offender this time time was Jurges. He threw away a batted grounder. The .Yanks capitalized on it for -three runs. Unearned Run The Cubs got an unearned run in the fourth without making a hit, thanks to an error by Gordon-Lee Gordon-Lee was jerked in this frame for a pinch hitter and the aged Charlie Char-lie Root succeeded him. He was jerked m the seventh for the same reason and Vance Page took up the burden. Then came the eighth and a revival re-vival of cup hopes, promptly snuffed snuf-fed out when the Yanks got their turn at bat. Cavarretta doubled and Catcher O'Dea, whom Hartnett Hart-nett had sent in benching himself, drove a homer into the stands, bringing the Cubs up to one run behind the Yanks. This set the Yanks off and in their half, they rained safeties all nvot ttiA nlana Pflno urnt tn I the showers. Larry. French sue- ceded him. Then came Tex Carle- ton who was plenty wild. After he had uncorked two wild pitches Dizzy was called to the rescue. He allowed a double and two more runs before he retired the sl'ie. In the ninth. Hartnett sent Reynolds in to bat for Dizzy. He still believed in miracles for Jurges had opened the inning with a single. But Big Red Ruf fing, as strong as he had been at the start, mowed down Reyn olds, Hack grounded out, and Ruffing Ruf-fing himsel grabbed Herman's bounder for the la3t out, the ball game, and the series. Baseball Mourns Death of Lane SAN DIEGO, Calif, Oct. 10 EE Pac-"ic Coast league base- ban men today mourned the death of Bill Lane. 78-year-old owner of the San Diego ball club. He died yesterday of a heart attack induced by the excitement last August of seeing his team win a 16-inning game. Lane entered baseball 30 years ago in the old Union Association, a Rocky mountain circuit. In 1915 he took control of the Salt Lake club, then a member of the Coast League. He sent Tony Lazzeri to the New York Yankees from Salt Lake. Later Lane moved the team to Hollywood, then to San Diego. Lane was born in Baton Rouge. La. In early life he was a news paperman and a lawyer. He made a fortune gold-mining in South Africa, Korea and Alaska. Last 2 (1-- Days! - City of tittle Men".
