Show V 'Wait 'Till Next Year' , ; Is Cry of Flatbushers 1 ,1 I: i By CARL LUNDQUIST United Press S porta Writer NEW YORK, Oct 4 ' (U. Brooklyn's cup of grief Over- There were a fiw faithful will ins to rally around the traditional Flatbush cry of "Wait 'til next year," but there were ever to many more who Just couldn't understand why Howie Schultz couldn't have smacked that homer with the bases loaded yesterday in the dylnf momenta of a dying cause. It would have been a baseball miracle to be sure, but Dodger fans had come to expect the Im possible in this year of years for Flatbush The fact that Relief Pitcher Harry (The Cat) Bre-cheen Bre-cheen came in to tsrike out Eddie Stanky and Schultz to end the game and five the. St. Louis Cards an 8 to 4 victory which put them into the world series was what filled that cup ol grief. For here were the Dodgers, ioo to 1 longshots to win in even the most conservative book, trying try-ing to win a ball game in which they had started the ninth inning behind, 8 to 1. They hadn't gotten a hit since the first inning off skinny Murry Dickson, and only one player had managed to hit a ball into the outfield. out-field. Up came Augie Galan, a world series veteran and a master at, disregarding past performances. Like the others, he had been unable to touch Dickson's slinky curve, but now he stepped into a nitrh he liked and sent it to right center for a double. Tbe 31.437 fans sent up a rtppie ox polite applause, glad tor tne gesture at least against the Invincible In-vincible Dickson. Dixie Walker, the Dodger clutch man didn't help matters when he sent a toy fly to Terry Moore, but rookie first baseman Ed Stevens stirred a few hearts when he trlppled to deep center to score Galan. Carl Furillo aroused a few more with a single which scored Stevens. Then it became apparent that Dickson was no superman after all. He was just a good pitcher working the greatest game of his career and tiring pretty fast be- Seals Cop Opener From Oaks, 5-2 OAKLAND. Cal., Oct 4 (U.R : Th San Francisco Seals were one up on Oakland in the Pacific Coast league final playoff series today, and all Manager Left-CDoul Left-CDoul wanted was another pitching performance like Al Lien s and a Utile more oz Slugger Slug-ger Hugh Luby's batting art It was a S to z margin by which the Seals won last night's; opener, and one of the Oakland! scores was virtually a ninth-in-l ning gift as Southpaw Lien lim-i ited them to an over-all supply of seven safe hits and one base on balls. Four of the Seal s runs were the personal doing of Luby, the one-time Oaks player, all batted in by the walloping infielder ini the first two frames. In the opening stanza Luby smacked a 340-foot homer and brought Don Trower in ahead of him. cause of a bad cold. He was rattled when he uncorked a wild pitch that sent Furillo to second ana no even upset ua rains i Manager Man-ager Eddie Dyer a little when he walked Peewee Reese. Dyer, unwilling to surrender a pennant won innings ago, called on Brecheen and "The Cat started start-ed out shakily by letting rookie Bruce Edwards score Furillo with a single that sent Reese to third. Cookie Lavagetto, pinch-hitting for kid-pitcher Harry Taylor, walked to fill the bases and then Brecheen cut out the foolishness. The next two batters were Stanky and Schultz, each representing the tying run at the plate. The left hander from Broken Bow, Okla., left the Dodgers broken and bowed by giving those two batters all he had. It was only a dream anyway, but a1 nice one while it lasted. Through; and chowder houses folks kept brincini uo the fact that Schultz had hit a homer in the first play-j off game at St. Louis "so why couldn't he do it again in Brooklyn?" Brook-lyn?" For the Cardinals, there were renewed hopes that they would go into the world series against the Boston Red Sox at the peak of their efficiency, playing the kind of ball that had been expected of them when they left the post last spring as the shortest priced pennant favorite in major league history. Of most importance was the fact that they were hitting again and that they were smacking the ball for extra bases. They collected col-lected four triples and two doubles and made 25 hits in all in the two unprecedented playoff play-off games against Brooklyn. Stan Musial got a double yesterday yes-terday and a triple in the first game at St. Louis. Erv Dusak, Dickson, and Enos Slaughter smashed triples yesterday while Terry Moore lashed a ground rules double that would have been good for a homer in most major league parks. The Cardinals know that the Red Sox are relaxed and ready. They have been on anything but a joy-ride in their hectic drive to subdue the embattled '"Bums" but Manager Dyer thinks they are going into the first game of the series Sunday "definitely on edge." It might be quite a battle at that. I PAGE 4 WlbvO. UTAH COUNTY.

By OSCAR FRALEY United Press Sports Writer ENROUTE TO ST. LOUIS. Oct. 4 (U FO The crowd had been quiet, almost sullen, all day and now it was roaring with all the bloodthirsty blood-thirsty ferocity of ancient Romans Ro-mans watching the kill. It was a home crowd, such as you see only at Ebbets Field. They come in all shapes, sizes and nationalities there, for it isn't very far from where the boats dock and people new to a land settle down. They are as primitive there as you'll find them anywhere. They love a manager who storms out on the diamond as if to tear an umpire limb from limb. They adore the wacky and the truculent trucu-lent as long as it is matched by courage and skill. It is a wild, frightening place to a stranger. Harry Brecheen. fortunately fortun-ately for him and the St. Louis Cardinals, was no stranger, he admitted as he was riding home today. He had been there before In this strange, almost unbelievable spot and had heard the roar as from the throats ef a thousand wolves. i i "But it felt like being under aj microscope with a million horns blowing in your ears," he recalled.! ti- that fooling ! . . w it.afc kins Divine Takes Credit For Louis Punch NEW YORK, Od 4 (U.R) Father Divine took credit for the punching power behind Heavyweight Champion Joe Louis' fists today, and warned the champ not to be critical of this claim "because if he does, he will lose out." Divine, in a sermon in his paper The New Day, said: "When he (Joe Louis) was born, the transmission of the spirit of by prophecy and declaration was reincarnated in him for the world for which he was predestined to reign as king in ... he did not know anything about it; his parents did not know anything any-thing about it." Divine said he got the idea of creating, another Negro heavyweight champion when Jack Johnson lost the title "and it was declared that another so-and-so would never nev-er ascend to the ring, would never become to be the world's heavyweight champion.". cham-pion.". He warned: "Now I hope Mr. Louis will not be critical when he hears what I said! (I never released this to the public before) because be-cause if he does, he will lose out: If he is critical of God, he will lose out! I gave him his energy, and I gave him his gift." thin-faced man from Missouri, as he walked to the mound in the ninth inning at Ebbets Field yesterday. yes-terday. Plodded out there, he did. without any emotion on his face but with a storm raging in his heart. It was a long walk from the bull pen out In left field. More than 80,000 pairs of eyes were glued on him and most of them were bitterly hostile and hopefully hope-fully cruel. They burned in from all tides, and two of those still-hopeful still-hopeful Dodgers were glued on the bases. Small wonder that his curve hung in the air and Bruce Edwards Ed-wards rifled it into left field for a hit that scored a run and still left two aboard. These were the Dodgers, a battling ball club which never gave up, always came through with the unexpected unexpect-ed and now was threatening to come from behind again and once more shatter Cardinal dreams. There was pressure and gold and glory riding on his arm now and Brecheen served them up again. Once more that lump in the throat choked his control and now the bases were loaded and coming up was the man who had drawn more bases on balls than any man in the league, chunky Eddie Stanky. They call Brecheen "The Cat." He looked It, too. as he uncnrled a fast ball that blew down little Eddie. And now there was one out to go. Only this was a big man. Howie Sehaltt, and he looked far larger to Brecheen than his six feet, six inches. This was the guy, the giant at the plate, who hit a nerve-tingling homer two days before. This time a home run would tie it up and give the Dodgers the chance they sought. They didn't get it, those battling bat-tling Brooklyns, because of Harry (The Cat) Brecheen. Schultz went down swinging vainly and furiously furi-ously at a third strike and St. Louis had won its ninth National league pennant in the closest race in basebal history. The guy from Missouri had shown them and the wolves went home hungry. Plastic film, the new fabric, is really a sheet of plastic. It is not woven and cannot fray. WANed ALL KINDS OF HIDES!

Coffered Denver Opens Title Defense Against BYU Tonight By STAN OPOTOW8KT UnlteS Press Sports Writer DENVER, Oct 4 (U.& Still battered, bat-tered, still bruised but still defending de-fending champion, Denver today ruled a slight favorite to down Brigham Young here tonight In the Big Seven conference's opening open-ing game. On the good tide of the ledger waa the apparent solution of the quarterback vacancy, thanks to some sparkling practice play by 1942 veteran Jack Girtln. Too, several of the Denver injuries suffered in last week's Kansas game were disappearing. Brigham Young, with one victory vic-tory and one defeat under its belt, obviously was pointing for tonight's game with the defending defend-ing champs. Coach Eddie Kimball quit using the traditional crying towel long enough to admit frankly that last week's one-point one-point loss to Montana State bothers him not at all. He figures that with Dick Chatterton, one of the best fullbacks full-backs in the conference, ready for action, the Cougars rate at least an even chance of victory.

This may prove to be Mother Reunited With Son After Nine Years Apart CHICAGO, Oct. 4 (U.R) A mother who is a stranger to her 10-year-old son began teaching him English today, while he talked talk-ed in Oreek about the wonders of American plumbing. Antonio Paras, reunited with his parents after being marooned in Europe for six years by the war, ran happily about their home. He pointed to the bath tub and running water faucets. "You must be rich," said Tony. "It was not like this in Greece." "No," protested his father, Louis, 33. a truck driver. "No, we aren't rich." his mother, Irene, 27, agreed. "But we have an automobile. You will learn to drive it, too. Here you can have everything ice cream, cake, fruit, vegetables." Until last night his mother had not seen Tony since he was a year old. She came to America In 1937. Her husband followed three years later. Tony stayed with relatives. He was to follow as soon as papers could be arranged, ar-ranged, but the war broke out. Throughout the war his distraught dis-traught parents sought in vain for word of Tony. Not until the war ended did they leirn that he was alive in famine-stricken Greece. They joyfully arranged passage and Tony arrived last night after a sea-sick boat trip and a long train ride spent eating eat-ing chocolate bars and pressing his nose against the coach window. the closest battle of the week, what with both clubs being very much on the rebound. But the number one team on the rebound parade is Colorado, which faces Utah State in another an-other conference game. The Buffs still smart and hurt from the walloping handed them by Texas last week, and they'll be out 'for blood.
