THE COSHOCTON TRIBUNE SUNDAY MOWflNO, OCTOBER IWi. PACING RECORD Yank Powerhouse Swamps Redlegs Paul Derringer Named As Last Chance to Halt American Loop Champs Bronx Bombers Blast Four Homers Out of Games Total of Five Hits i By GEORGE KIRKSEY CROSLEY FIELD, Cincinnati--Yankee siege guns wa Saturday and the relently American league hampions, with an amazing demonstration of base-hit economy, badly outclassed Cincinnati teds, 7-3, for their third straight World Series triumph. i With a highly-partisan home town crowd of 32.723 in the stands in almost complete silence after the Irst few innings, the Bronx Bombers shelled Gene Thomson, "baby" of the Reds club and one of the young" st pitchers ever to start a World Series game, from the Wolverines Edge Traditional Rival nound with a murderous home run Blasting away with four f-rs, the Yankees charged on to iteir eighth straight World series Ictory in the past three years and 're now within one game of their conseuitive world's cham- in four straight games. Long armed, swarthy skinned Keller, the of Maryland oy who is playing his first year dih the Yanks, set off the Yankees' devastating attack 'in the jtst few minutes of the game. Al-lost before the crowd realized ftiat was happening Keller put le Yanks ahead 2-0.

The 22-year-old Thompson, only year away from Class league Jnh, walked Frankie Crosetti, zst man to face him. Red Rolfe 'ras retired at first. Then Keller smacked one of "Thompson's curves into the right leld bleachers about 375 feet from 'ae plate. That drive hit the right between the eyes, and them stunned by the sudden- ess which the Yankee powerhouse struck. The rabid Cincinnati fans could "iarcely believe their eyes and the moment Keller's drive his bat there was scarcely a iurmur from the throng.

If jjere was one Yankee fan in the fathering, he must have been -Iraid to make a peep because leller crossed the plate in com- jete silence. Keller's drive set the tempo of game, played on a hot, bticky ay. Along came Joe DiMaggio ad Billy Dickey to clout another air of homers, and Keller got Imself another one in the fifth fining. Paul Derringer and Bucky Wal- are kept the Yankee power pretty rell shackled in the two games -layed in New York. Gene Thomp- JD, Grissom and Whitey loore held the Yanks to a mere eve hits today, the fewest the league champions have lade thus far in the series, but five hits were packed with jore dynamite than all the 15 hits ae Bombers made in the first two Seven runs on five hits--the 'anks weren't exactly in a waste- ol mood.

At the end of the third ming they had a 4-3 lead, and ad made only two hits--both wo-run homers. Keller's first home run put the ANN ARBOR, MICH. Thc University of Michigan football team, displaying a crushing offensive in the first half, downed Michigan State college, 26 to 13, Saturday, but was forced to rush its regulars into action in the final period to stave off an explosive Spartan rally before 68.618. Fritz Crisler, Michigan coach, sent most of his reserves into action late in the second quarter, when his starting eleven had rolled out ahead, but plans to test the replacements had to be called off when the traditional opening day rivals refused to stay licked. Tom Harmon and Paul Kromer and Bob Westfall, juggernaut sophomore fullback find, led Michigan's first half attack, which rolled unchecked up the field for four scores in as many drives.

With the game barely sever, minutes old, Weslfall plunged 21 yards to State's 44, Harmon reached the three yard line on Kromer's pass, and Kromer scored on a reverse to give Michigan the lead it didn't surrender. Har- mc-n added the point, and led the the run to set the stage for 19 points in the next period. Haimon, as surely a star as he was a jittery sophomore in last year's State game, scored on the next play, and then awaited the breaks with his teammates, shooting two touchdowns to Forest Evashevski, burly Michigan blocking back, when those breaks came in the form of interceptions. Bill Melzow. rookie guard from Flint, came in with the first wave of reserves to kick Michigan's final point.

C. SWAOGABO, President Hobnui County Conservation Leagve, Mfltersbmx. Ohio. DYCHE STADIUM, EVANSTON, rugged Oklahoma team bottled up Northwestern's highly-advertised taackfield power Saturday and flashed an offensive of their own that rolled to a 23 to 0 upset victory in the Big Six champions' invasion of the Big Ten. Bill DP Correvont.

bearing the biggest ballyhoo a sophomore bark ever had, lived up to his advance billing with a sensational exhibition of broken field running. But the scoring summary named only comparative unknowns--a fullback named Bill Seymour and a couple of halfbacks named Dick Favor and John Martin. It was Seymour who bucked over the Northwestern line from th one-yard stripe in the first and third periods it was Martin who intercepted a Northwestern forward pass on his 46-yard line in the closing minutes of the game and ran untouched 54 yards for Oklahoma's third touchdown; it was Favor who booted a field goal from the 24-yard mark in the opening period. The Big Six champs wasted no time showing their ability to win. John Shirk, 6 foot 4, Oklahoma end, reached high for a bobbing fumble from Ollie Hahnenstein's arms and was felled on Northwestern's 6-yard line.

Symour went over on the fourth play but Favor failed to convert. Northwestern Coach Lynn Waldorf then sent in his sophomore ace DeCorrevont and the Oklahoma line tossed Bill for successive losses of 7 and 4 yards. Jack Jacobs, Jennings and Stevenson soon collaborated on a forward-lateral good for 17 which set up Favor's field goal from Northwestern's 24. The second period went scoreless but a blue print copy of Hahnenstein's first period fumble --this time on Northwestern's 5 and recovered by Clif Speegle. the Oklahoma center-resulted in a second touchdown in the third psriod.

This time Favor converted. That was the moment Waldorf chose to send in De Correvont for the second time. For 10 minutes the farmer high school scoring wonder raced across the a d-stripes --skipping among red-trousered tacklcrs like a ghost with his shroud on fire. But it was an individual effort and in the end the ball went over to Oklahoma on Duggan's interception of Clawson's fumble on Oklahoma's 30. DeCcrrevont made one more 29-yard dash but he came up from under tacklers so badly battered he had to be taken out.

The lines were drooping fast in mid-summer heat and the fourth period was sensational only for aerial fireworks. Hahn- cnstein and Paul Eoper fired passes wildly and sometime? suc- Oklahoma held twice within its own 10 mid then came back for a third touchdown. Johnny Martin, a substitute halfback, intercepted a pass on 46-vnrd line and raced untouch- Reserve Proves too Much For Big Sk Team Under Sweltering Sun Saturday By JIM EMERSON COLUMBUS--A high-spirited Ohio State football team struck twice thru the air and once thru the line Saturday to open its season with a 19 to 0 victory over Missouri before a crowd of 58,165. Ohio State displayed unexpected power in the inaugural of Francis Schmidt's sixth season as Ohio coach. Ohio State took the opening kickoff and marched 71 yards without interruption for their first touchdown.

Don Scott, junior quarterback from Canton, sailed a 15-yard pass to Frank Clair, end from Hamilton, for the score. Scott converted the extra point. -o Blue Spartans Lead Central Results of the three Central Ohio league games Friday nlgrht stiU left the Coshocton perfect defensive machine with mathematical chance of sweeping thru to the football championship. Altho both the Redskins and Lancaster are yet without a victory, their scoreless battle in the league opener Friday night left them, along- with Zanesville, with thc undefeated records. However, the Zanesville Blue Devils took a big lead In the young race Friday night when, they trounced Newark, 13-0 for their second straight victory.

Marietta, victims of the Blue Devils a week ago, tcok second place in the standings by blanking Cambridge, 7 to 0, Friday night. Ram Defeated By Alabama NEW YORK--Another great Alabama football team turned up in New York Saturday and defeated a hard-fighting Fordnam eleven, 7-6, thanks to a conversion by Haywocd (Sandy) Sanford, the who booted Alabama into the Rose Bcwl two years ago. The Crimson Tide dominated play completely in the first half, putting their touchdown over 7 minutes after the game started and the Ram attack dead until midway of the final period when a blocked kick gave Fordham its onlv scoring op- Roland Orf portunity. The Tide's march to a touch- oucheck down began on Fordham's 40 after Pickctt After a poor first half during which they penetrated past midfield only once, Missouri fought back in the third quarter and held the Bucks scoreless. An 18-yard pass from John Simione, reserve quarterback, to Charley Anderson, sophomore end from Massillon, notched the second touchdown early 1 in the last period and Scott added the final score with a 34-yard jaunt with only a few minutes left to play.

Ohio State completed eight of 23 attempted passes for total gains of 147 yards. Missouri completed five out of 14 for 102 yards. Ohio State intercepted five of the visitor's aerial thrusts, one of them leading to the second touchdown. A thrilling 88-yard sideline dash over the goal line by Jim Strausbaugh, Ohio halfback, on the opening kickoff was nullified by a clipping offense by a Buckeye lineman. Missouri was offside on the play so the kickoff was repeated.

Superior Ohio State reserve strength overpowered Missouri in the second half. Schmidt sent in 48 men while Coach Don Faurot used 28. Ohio piled up 362 yards from scrimmage and passing while Missouri had only 124. The stage was set for the first Ohio touchdown by several neat running gains by Strausbaugh and Fullback Jim Langhurst which shoved the pigskin to the Missouri 6 before a penalty pushed it back to the 16. Langhurst picked up a yard and then Scott threw a pass to Clair who snared it in the end zone.

Missouri was held deep in its own territory the times she got the ball until, just before the first half ended, Paul Christman fired a loping pass from the Missouri 12 to Clay Cooler xvho was downed on the Ohio 33 as the gun sounded. Lineups IRISH BARELY TRIUMPH OVER GEORGIA TECH SOUTH BEND, Notre Dame, completely outfought the last half, held off a furious fourth period drive by Georgia Tech's underpowered Engineers today and hung on just long enough to score their second victory of the season, 17 to 14. For one brief flurry in the second period, Notre Dame possessed all the power of old. The Irish came from behind with a two-touchdown burst that ran their lead to 17 to 7 and apparently had crippled Georgia Tech for the rest of the day. But back came the Yellow Jackets, led by twisting, pass- tossing Johnny Bosch, a.

140- pound halfback half as high as the tallest Irish line man. They played Notre Dame to a standstill during the scoreless third period, drove 61 yards in seven plays--three of them passes--across Notre Dame's goal line and thundered back again with only three minutes of the game remaining. As 33,000 Notre Dame fans stood breathless, Bosch rifled what might have been the win- Position Ohio State Boosters to Meet Future activities of the newly formed Coshocton Booster club will be discussed at a meeting, open to all members, at 7:30 next Tuesday night at Salvation Army citadel, it was announced by President Sanford Heiser.

John Dillard Timed in Ryan Grattan's 2:0314 Fastest of Meet Weetamoe, Miss Voici Split Honors in '17 Trot; Climax Is Thriller By HOWDY HOUSE In a whirlwind climax, Ryan Grattan and John Dillard--a pair of snper-speed pacers--blazed the fastest heats of the county fair harness racing meet and possibly a new national half-mile track record yesterday afternoon.

Ryan Grattan, great Canadian purse-winner owned and driven by W. L. Fraser of Forest, Ontario, went the quickest mile of the four-day Just a quarter of a second under the local track pacing record, the brown gelding set the low mark while sweeping the second division of the 2:14 pace, copping the Kroger grocery trophy. But the most stunning performance was turned in by John Dillard in the three-year-old and under pace when he stepped the last mile in 2:04, which harness experts believe is a new 1939 speed mark for the young- Asters' class.

Early in the first period, Fullback 'Howard Ector of Tech fumbled on his 25-yard line and after the line had yielded five yards, Halfback Harry Stevenson dropped back to the 28 and booted what proved to be the whining field goal. A break in the second period produced Georgia Tech's first touchdown. Aderhold blocked Bob Saggau's fourth-down punt and the ball squired down to Notre Dame's 14-yard line where Saggau recovered but possession reverted to the Yellow Jackets on downs. Bob Ison made 12 on an' end around play on the left sidej and Ector went over on the nextj play. Roy Goree converted from, placement and Georgia Tech led 7 to 3.

Here the Irish mobilized all their power. With Saggau running and passing to Lou Zon- tini. they moved the ball to Tech's 30. Joe Thesing sliced thru left tackle for 34 yards and Saggau scored from the six-yard line. Zontitin placement.

M. Desback of Chalmers, and driven by Harry Short, overshadowed that mark by winning the opener in the first division in 2:05 12. Gunning for the event's Kroger grocery trophy, Fraser gave his Canadian steed the reins in the last mile and the gelding ran away from the field to hang up the week's record. Ryan Grattan went the first half-mile in 59 1-4 seconds--something of a local track record. The blistering pace also gave Fraser the Buckeye clothing store trophy, offered for the fastest mile of the meet.

Passport was favored to carry off the meet's speed honors after his brilliant performance in the first heat of the first division. The Indiana horse got off to a flying start in the second mile and, after leading the field to the three-quarter post, broke his stride and fell back to fifth. Betty entered by Saunders Mills of Toledo with Roy Line'in the sulky, rushed home to win the second heat in 2:06. The crowd of nearly 2,000, including many of the nation's leading harness racing experts, saw John Dillard lead the three-year- olds under the wire in the mediocre time of 2:11 in each' of the first two heats. A better mark was hardly expected in the final trip.

It was Little Nell's Niece from A. J. Wonham's stables of Bourbon, put ths pressure on John Dillard for the great climax. Racing neck-and-neck, the two rivals covered the last quarter of a mile in 28 seconds--which, at that rate, would produce a mark of 1:52 for a mile. The 2:17 trot, also split in two divisions, was swept by Weetamoe in the top end.
