In the American League the Yankees have seen to it that there will be no post-season arguments. Three years ago Joe DiMaggio stated that he wanted to play on two more pennant winning teams to tie a mark set by Babe Ruth.

The Charlottetown football Ab- blcs showed Saturday that they will have to be reckoned with when play-off time rolls around. The Abbles probably were not up against competition of senior cal- ibre but they showed plenty of ag- gressiveness and fiizht. The next football game will likely be played on Tuesday afternoon between Ab- bics and Saints.

The Islanders started off their training grind with a work-out at the Forum over the week-end. Coach Lnmoureux put the boys through their pace: and had them puffing quite heavily at the end of a 30 minute session. Most of the boys thought it was much easier to watch the horse races on they did Saturday night. some of them made more than I fair day's pay too. .

Abbies Score 9 -0 Win Over Shearwater In Football Game Saturday

An aggressive, hard hitting team of Charlottetown Abbie: Saturday

scored a 9-0 win over the Shear- weter Navy team in an exhibition football game played on Memorial Field.

Team Captain Elmer Blanchard led his team to victory with two tries in the first half. Rookie foot- baller Jimmie Flannagan scored the third try on a nice half line run late in the second half.

Abbics showed too much power and too much experience for their

ponents. The Abbie scrum con- trolled lhe ball and the Abbies en- joyed a large territorial advant- age.

Blanchard, the 24-year-old vet- eran of many football wars. put his team ahead 3-0 early in the game when he intercepted a Shear- watcr pass and raced 25 yards in the goal line. Art Perry's convert attempt was short.

The heady little inside half came biick again a few minutes later to score a second time. He look a

They came close to scoring on several occasions but the doughty tars held the fort.

Then like in shot out of the blue the Abbies scored their third try. The score resulted from a two man scrum about the 35-yard line with the ball being heeled back to Bill Ledwell. The big forward tossed a pass to Art Perry on the run and Perry relayed a long throw to "Spy" Ready. Ready passed out to the end man. Jimmie Flannagan. and the stocky youngster raced across from ten yards ut to com- plete the scoring for th day.

The Shearwnier team appeared to be in good condition but their coach Bernard "Spud" Hughes of this city stated most of the boys were Upper Canadian footballers and did not know the rules of the rugby game.

Dodgers In High Glee After Vyory

By RALPH BERNSTEIN

PHILADELPHIA. Sept. 30 - (AP) - "They can't say we choked up after this one even if we lose the playoff to the New York Giants."

A deleriously happy Charley Dressen was talking in the jam- pecked. smoke-filled dressing room after his Brooklyn Dodgers beat Philadelphia Philliea 9-8 and tied the Giants for the National League

pennant. "Let me tell you." Dressen said, "Our great defence carried us

through. They said we were a great hitting team, but the really great thing about this team is its de- fence. Did you see that (Jackie) Robinson make that great catch in the 12th. and how about that (Andy) Pnfko in the outfield?”

Robinson was mobbed by pho- lozraphers. anxious to get a pic- ture of the spunky second base- mnn whose great catch in the 12th inning saved the mum and whose dramatic homerun in the 14th car- ried the Dodgers into ii playoff for the lag.

Asked if his homer was the greatest money hit in his major league career Robinson said: ”The greatest in my entire career, in nnv it-mute anywhere."

Jackie explained what happen- ed to him in the 12th when he fell after nmklnr: :1 sensational fill'lflf.' catch of Eddie Waitkus' line drivc. . "I dove at the ball and spenred it. When I tell. my elbow jammed into my stomach. knocking the wind out of me. I couldift even flllk. I had to point to show the trainer what was wrong.”

The quietest player in the mad- hcusc called a dressint! room was Roy Ctimpaiiella. The Dodger cutcher was weary and in pain from a severe charley horse suf- fered while running out fl fourth inning triple. He could hardly walk without a stabbing pain Pafko. the hard-hitting outfield- er obtained in mid-season from the Chicago Cubs, summed up the club's feelings when he said: "This kind of baseball brings ulcers. but what wonderful ulcers."

Giants Hiqhlv Pleased With 3-2 Victory

By Bill King BOSTON. Sept. 30 - (AP) -

New York Girints bizbiblcd like vintage chamvpagno when thcyl rtormcd their dressing room to- day after their 3-2 win over Boston Braves.

"What a pitcher you are whatf a game you gave us. I knew you? had it for us", manager Leo Dur- nclzrr yDll':(1 as he embraced; Larry Jansen after the Giants; pitclun: victor entered the

steamy room. "Thank.-'. skip". Jansrn re- plied modestly. "And thank you. Monte". he added whrn left field- er Monte lrvln handed him the

ball that Willard Marshall. a former Giant. flied out to end the game.

The deliriou.-iv happy Duroch- er then turned to lrvin. the Negro star he halls as "Big Monte." "You bcaut. you." Leo hnliered. "What a hit you gave us for our winning run."

"As I've been saying all season, it's a team victory. 21 25-man job." Durocher told sports writers.

”l knew it would be this way from the start and so did Lhc players. even when we were in last place in May. I told them then and I kept repeating every day after, ithe only way we can miss the pennant is by running out of gamcsf "We never feared anybody. Never expected any help from anybody. We played every game to win and that's the way it was", he glozitcd.

"Yes. I was happy then. too." he explained. "But not as much.

New York Giants Face Playoff With Dodgers ' In Hot Pennant Race

(By The Auoolnucl Pi-out

The miraculous New York Giants forced the National League buc- ball race into a playoff sundly with the staggering Brooklyn Dodgers. saved at the brink of de- fent by Jackie Robinson's l4th- lnning home run.

The Giants accomplished one of the greatest of all sports come- backs by defeating Boston Braves. 3-2. -Then the Dodgers. trailing Philadelphia Phillies 8-5. pulled even and under the lights :1: Phil- adelphia squeezed out 3 9-8 vict- ory.

This gave the Giants and Dodg- ers identical records of 96 victories and 58 defeats (.6231 for the reg- ular season. They will meet Mon- day at Ebbets Field, Brooklyn, in the opener of D. best-of-three aer- les to determine which goes on to oppose the New York Yankees in the World Series.

The Dodgers, once leading the league by 13”; games, owed every- thing to Robinson. Jackie made a diving catch of Eddie Waitkur liner with the bases loaded and two out in the 12th and although injured went on to deliver the pay-off homer - his 18th of the season.

For the Giants it meant a spec- tacular rise from the depths to which on ll-game losing streak at the start of the season had aunk them. At one time their percent- age was only .143.

Theoretically the National League playoff could end Tuesday with one team "winning two straight, and the World Series could start on schedule on Wednesday in Yankee Stadium.

However the new commissioner of baseball, Ford Frick. probably will postpone the start of the Series to give the National Lehszue winner a. chance to catch breath.

After the first game of the play- off. the struggle between the two rivals moves to the Polo Grounds for the second game. and third if needed.

The tight National League fin- lsh maintained a tradition of the scnior circuit. which this year gel- cbrated its 75th anniversary.

In 1946 St. Louis Cardinals and the Dodgers wound up in B tie and the Cardinals won the playoff, two games to none.

In 1949 the Dodgers beat the Phillles 9-7 on the last day of the season to clinch the pennant. and last year the Phillies accomplish- ed the same trick. downing the Dodgers 4-1.

Sunday was a day of vindicn- tion for Leo Durocher, the iaunty. garrulous. flashy manager of New York Giants. who all season long said he had faith in his club. that it was "my kind of A team." and that no one should count the Giants out of the pennant race.

It was a day of mixed emotions for Charlie Dresen. manager of the once high-flying Dodgers. Drcssen all but made his World Series plans in mid-season. and almost all baseball people agreed with him that his club was un- heritable. Dressen was only saved from humiliation by his team's lnnc-drawn-out victory.

World Series talk was suspend- ed while the Dodgers and Giants- bitter and old metropolitan rivals

I- squared off for their grudge

panics. Through the season the Dodgers held ll 13-9 margin over the Giants. but so irresistible have
