Spectacular Reli

Pitching By Joe Page Gives N. Y. Victory

By GAYLE TALBOT

NEW YORK. Oct. 6—-(AP)

Spectacular relief pitching by left-

hander Joe Page, who permitted only one Brooklyn Dodger, to reach base in the last flve innings, enabled the Yankees to coast to a 5-3 dowry tcdarln the-event!) and deciding lame of the world series at the Yankee Stadium before 71.548 fans.

Shelled from the mound the

previous day. the Yankees’ ace relief

hurler came back to throttle the scrappy National Leaguera by taking over at the start of the fifth frame with his club holding a precarious 3-2 lead. He faced only 15 batters in slamming the door in the Dodgers‘ faces. s double clay wining out the only man to hit him safely after

one was out in the ninth.

The victory, after seven days of

hectic struggle, gave the Yonkces their 11th world championship in l5 times they had reached the fall classic. All records for attendance I and receipts were broken in the course of the fluctuatng duel be- tween the cross-river rivals.

Sharing honors with Page in the decisive triumph were little Phil RlZZIItO. the Yankees‘ scamperng shortstop. and a pair of youthful utility stars, Bobby Brown and Al Clark, plucked from the bench by manager Bucky Harris at critical moments to throw barbs into the Brooks.

Rizzuto slammed three of New York's SW01! hits off five Brooklyn flsngcrs, drove across one run and scored two more. He had a hand in each of the Yankees‘ first four runs. one way or another. I-Iis final contribution was o brilliant stop and throw of a sharp grounder by catcher Bruce Edwards for .the double play which ended the series,

The City Baseball League wound

up a. successful season Sunday when the Leglonalres copped the title and the trophy donated by Dr. W. J. P. MacMillan, O.B.E. What with the World Series, and local boxing and football events the game was almost overshadow- ed ‘but fans who had followed the destinies of the clubs all season svere oi) hand to see the curtain fall on the final drama of local

baseball.

I I I

It is to the credit of the City League officials, umpires, players. etc.. that baseball hereabouts is definitely on the upgrade. The interest taken by the general pub- lic, which held up so magnificent- ly all season. indicates an ap- preciation of the efforts of all concerned. It is safe to assume that next season will see an even greater interest in the sport with the scene of action being the new Memorial Sports Field recently

opened.

I I I Football will hold the spotlight the next few weeks. Sandwiched between the baseball and hockey season it seldom seems to get much of a break. However there appears to be plenty of activity in the Fall pastime in schools and colleges. There‘ has been no act- ion to have the city ficld a rugby team. but there are plenty of old- limers now that the leaves have begun to fall, who recall the ex- ploits of the old Abbie “pigskin carriers." i I I I

One of the big handicaps, it seems, in having the city repre- sented in any rugby schedule. is the mutter of equipment. and the other necessary time to get in practice. Both these problems might svcll be solved by organiza- tion. Such plans, however. seem to be left until a little too late in the season. ' I

I I I (Since this column was written information has bccn received

that there is a movement afoot to rc-organizc the old Abbie foot- brill club and the, first practice session has been called by man- agcr George Walters for this aft- ernoon at the Memorial Sports Field at 5 o'clock.)

St. Dunstans College rugbyists leave Friday for Fredericton where they will meet U. N. B. in the opener of Intercollegiate play. On Saturday the 18th Mount A. Uni- versity players will be seen in act- ion on tho local college gridiron. A. J. McAdam. the local college coach, reported yesterday that the team might be without the serv- ices of Johnny Bradley who suf- fered an injured ankle in a work- out over the, week-end. Other- wise the team will be much the same as played against Prince of Wales on Saturday.

With the opening of the Na- tional Hockey League season a little more than a week sway there is s ripple of activity on the local front. Reportedly sort- ing through their duffle bags prior to departure for North Syd- ney are Cec. Dowling, Allie Car- ver and Wally shepherd. The trio performed with the Leglonaires. Maritime Intermediate Champions for two seasons. Their places will not be easy to fill. I I I Buck Whitiock has already left for Moncton where he will team up with Bud Mclilachern when the Hawks hit the ice lanes for prac- tice. Cliff Jackson who played at New Glasgow and Moncton. is rumored again interested in offers from that team. Joey LeClair

before he was relegated to the sidelines with a broken ankle, miry also play for New Glasgow this season. ' I I I I Maurice "Mousie" Dowling and Bucko ‘rrainor, two well-known Island hockey players who per- formed iast season with-the Mari- time champion Moncton Hawks. are reported from Lake Placid. N.

iFive Standouts In This Year's Series

YANKEE STADIUM. Oct. 6- (CPl-There are nine guys on a baseball team no matter what arithmetic you use and the 1047 World Series showed that New York Yankees, over seven games, fielded a better ball club than Brooklyn Dodgers. ,

Although there was a great deal of talk about individual heroes. the Yankees were stronger in most positions and proved it today by blasting the Bums 5-2 in the final game.

Actually, five men outs:

Joe DiMaggio, who loped around centre field yanking down Dodger hits and banging in a home run that won a game.

Hugh Casey, who pitched relief in six of the seven games and who was credited with a Brooklyn victory in the fourth game .al- though he threw only one ball. But that was a curve ball to Tommy I-Ienrich which made the Yankee fielder hit into a retiring double play.

Casey's opposite number. re- llefer Joe Page of the Yanks who tossed five innings of the last game and allowed only one hit and no walks.

Cookie Lavagetto, the Brooklyn pinch-hitter who drove in two runs with a last inning double in the fourth game to pull the Dodgers even at two games each.

‘were stand-

Al Gl0llffiddll_ the utility Dodger who pulled down Joe DiMaggids potential three-run

lomer in the sixth game to help the Dodgers win.

In the happy Yankee dressing room after the game today team- work was emphasized again and again by the ‘winners.

Maybe Joe DiMaggio was the guy who got most handshakes but that's old stuff to the Jolter and he took it all casually.

Henrich an amiable veteran. was asked how it felt this time. ‘This is the fifth World Series for me and it gets better all the time," Tommy said. "This was the toughest one; the hardest foughi 0118."

Allie Reynolds, who won the second game, allowed it was mighty nice to be with a pennant winner.

George McQuinn, the Yank first packer who played brilliantly afield, was unhappy about his poor show at bat.

Floyd (Bill) Bevens the un- lucky young man who pitched a ro-hitter up until the last third of the ninth in the fourth game— when Lavagetto doubled in the Dodgers’ winning runs-was still sad-but still a team player.

"We won; that's more important than one guy's victories," he said.

Dodgers Shed iio Tears After Final flame

(By Austin Beaimear)

YANKEE STADIUM New York. Oct. 6 - (AP) -— The Brooklyn Dodgers dressed and went home after today's final game of the World Series.

That's all there was left for them in do. And it was as simple and matter of fact as that.

There was no weeping. wailing or gnashing of teeth after their 5-2 defeat by New York Yankees in the payoff battle.

Although the defeated athletes didn't say much, you could tell they felt they had given the Yanks a run for their money.

"I have no regrets." said Burt Shotton, the silver-thatched pilot of‘ the Dodgers, "The Dodgers are a great team, and they'll be great- er next year. We did all we could. We tried. but we couldn't quite make it.

“We'll beat the Yanks more times in the next 10 years than they'll beat us."

Dodger president Branch Rickey accompanied Shotton on the long walk from dugout to clubhouse. his arm draped around Burt's shoulders.

Tight-lipped and sad-faced. they entered the visitors’ dressing room deep under Yankee Stadium. For 10 minutes the door remained locked while the two men com- forted their hirelings in privacy.

"We got beat by a darn good team," said Rickey as he emerged. "Any team with Henrich and Di- Maggio on it has got to be great. No, put DiMaggio first."

One of the last Dodgers to come from the shower room was Eddie Stanky, the scrappy little second baseman. Stanky said the Yanks won today because of their strength down the middle.

“Stirnweiss, Rizzuto Page and (Aaron) Robinson won for them," he declared. “If Robinson had been catching from the start, the series never would have gone sev- en g/mes."

“When you're playing Bucky Harris, you're battling a great. guy," Shotton said later. "I can't

get through the crowd to con- gratulate him hut I want you fel- lows to do it for me in the pap- ers."
