Calm in the midst of the car- nage. Munger, who two months ago was sweating it out with the army of occupation in Germany, mowed the Sox hitting array down with nine scattered hits and ermltted only one earned run as e mode certain the play-off would return to St. Innis.

The lone honest tally made. off the big righthander was knocked in. naturally by Rudy York, who slapped a double into right-centre fi-eld in the fourth inning after Ted Williams had lined o. single.

Mungefls unexpectedly brilliant performance "set up" the Car- dinal hurling staff and made it certain the Boston: would have to look once again at both Howie Pallet and Harry Brecheen. the two crack lefthanders who ‘gave them so much trouble in the games at St. Louis.

Manager Dyer said Pallet, who lost the opener at St. Inuis on Rudy York's 10th inning nomer. would hurl again tomorrow. Either Mickey Harris. who was beaten by Brecheen in the second me, or Joe Dobson was expected o I0 for the Red Box, though Manager Joe Cronin. still somewhat dazed by what he had just seen, was none too certain about anything.
