C. Team Explained CLINTON, Sept.

30 Coach Lon-nle McMillian of Presbyterian college's football team, is gettiiiff fed up on being heralded the "favorite" airainst such gridiron powers as the Rose Bowl Georgia Bulldogs and the Clemson Tigers. "It's pretty silly," McMillian says, "for P. C. to be rated ahead of the nation's once mighty machines Just because we happen to have nine seniors on the squad. The truth is that only four of those boys ever plaved varsity football before, Our team, like those of other institutions which can use only regular students, is made up largely of high school boys." Lonnie said it was "ridiculous" to read stories out of Athens before the Georgia game about P.

C. being a sure winner. "We knew ahead of time," he said, "that Georgia had a really tough team. Some of their men had played freshmen and varsity football at other colleges. They weren't Just 17-year-olds at all.

They had transfers from colleges Your pencil packin' farmer has been attending these annual Ball Harvests ever since Hank Gowdy was in a pup tent in 1918, but somehow I've never gained equilibrium after George Stallings' miracle Boston Braves upset me and A Connie Mack's Philadelphia Athletics in 1914. Of course, I suffered something of a minor jolt, as did all other feeble forecasters, when the Cardinals won four out of five from the Yankees last fall. Surprising was not that the Cards won but the manner in which they de-' throned the Yankee dynasty. But I keep going back to the World Series year after year hoping that some day I can ftr.feii nnt. rniv t.hp rpsnit hut, how each run will be scored.

White who shut the Yankees out 3 to 0 last year in the world series has been bothered with a sore arm all season and it is doubtful if he will get a turn in the World Series this year.

Louis Cardinals and New York Yankees by trying to figure out what they don't have, rather than what they have. Most oi the comparisons are positive comparisons, based on their current lineups. This is negative, or at least not positive, by any means. Anyway, it is based on what each I team Is missing from the 1942 in Africa. As I'm in North Africa temporarily wouia nice to see him.

"They had mostly inexperienced boys, and it was a toss-up between us," he said. "Clemson, you know, is the only other college in the state except P. C. which is getting along on what Is left. Both institutions have army cadets but they are ineligible.

POLICY "The college policy, however, has never been to seek deferment for its students, but rather to speed up education so as to get students as quickly prepared as possible for the service." Dr. Jacobs explained. "The decision of a number of seniors to finish their education before service is a tribute to the popularity of the college and Its efficient R. O. T.

c. unit and also to the accelerated prourpm of the college. "It is remarkable that a relatively small college, with limited enrollment and without the use of its Armv Air Cadets is able to produce out of the handful of R. O. T.

C. students remaining a team which can defeat Clemson, play the University of Georgia such a strong game and overwhelm a heavier soldier team from Fon Jackson, while most other small colleges have abandoned inter-collegiate competition or are depending upon V-12 sailors. "It is a tribute to the spirit of the college and to the sr.gacitv of Coach Lonnie McMillian." NEWBERRY'S V-12 TEAM However, the greatest test Is vet ahead for scrappy little P. C. The first great test will come Friday night at Clinton, when under the llRhts of Ballev stadium the tackle the navy V-12 boys of Newberry college, followed the next week bv a same with the navy boys at the University of South Carolina.

If P. C. can cross these two difficult hurdles and thus claim uncontested possession of the state champion-shin, then indeed will their accomplishment be startling. Thcv have a tough lob ahead, however, and Coach McMillian knows It only too well. It would be more reasonable to expect the Newborn Sailors to be too strong.

Nevertheless with P. spectacular passing game and the old Blue Stock-Indian rivalry and with the Army Air Corps and Navv candidate boys, and their bands added to the two student cheering sections.

Sept.

30. (P) Aside from the return of some of their stars from the Army or Navy the best break the New York Yankees rould have received from the World Series was to have Lefty Marius Russo regain his pitching form. This Is exactly what has happened and the Yankees now have not only the best rlghthanded mound corps in baseball ready ior ine si. Louis Cardinals, but also can count on one of the best southpaws either for starting duty or for relicr. When Russo is right he is tough to beat In any kind of competition.

In both 1940 and 1941 he won. 14 games for the Yankees and in the latter year he pitched a four-hit 2 to 1 victory over the Brooklyn Dodgers in the World Series. Last year Russo's arm became strangely lame. Most of the time he couldn't throw hard enough to play bean bag, but a few times the soreness let up and he appeared in nine games, winning four and losing one. This year the Yankees hired a new trainer, Eddie Froelich, who had been a kid in the Chicago clubhouse when Joe McCarthy managed the Cubs and who later became the trainer of the Chicago Blackhawks hockey team.

Froelich made Russo his special ward and today pronounced him ripe for the scries if McCarthy wants him. "Russo's trouble," he explained. "we found out was caused by sinus, When we cleared that up the toxic condition which had settled in his pitching arm disappeared." lexas Has Dozen Ten Second Men COLLEGE STATION, Scut. 30.

NEXT DOOR TO YOU IN A FRIENDLY sort of way: Just when he thought he was well on his way to recovery from an operation in a Texas Army Air Base hospital, Wayne Johnson has had to expose his anatomy to the surgeons again.

This time the former pitcher is in Ward S-l, Armv Hospital, Army Air Base. Salt Lake City, Utah, and would likp to hear from his Greenville county cronies Simosonville's Little Yankees, a nickname we tagged on the team about seven vears aeo when iiuact for this year's competition, you might iigure the outcome would oe the same, always taking into consideration the improvement or deterioration that might be shown by youthful or aging players. Oi those who played major roles in last year's series and who are missing this year, five are Yankees and lour are Cardinals. The Yankees lost all four of their series' hitters Phil Rizzuto .381, Red RolTc .353, Joe DiMaggio and Buddy Hassett .333 and their only winning pitcher, Red Hulling. CARDS LOST SPEED The Cardinal losses primarily were in speed, as they included kind of speed.

Brown was the only .300 hitter for the Red Birds last year, and he Just made it. Beazlev won two of the four games. Johnny I Hopp was a series regular for the Cards last year, but inasmuch as he can't be considered a loss. Some of the losses you might say neutralize each other more or ess, DiMaggio and Moore, the rival center Holders, for instance On their play in last year's series there was little to choose between them, although DiMaggio's batting a vt'i ityc "A as ocuer. Brown and cither Rolfc or Rizzuto might also cancel each other, and the same might be said of Ruffing and Beazley.

Whether the loss of Hassett would oflset the loss of Slaughter is open to question. Hassett, playing in only three games, had the better batting average last year, but Slaughter's arm probably won one game for the Cards, and personally if we had our choice of which man we'd want on our side in a series it would be Salughter. Summing up, the Yankees lost one more man and over-all better hitting, The Cardinals lost speed and daring on the ba.ses. Each team lost its top series pitcher. Naturally, this is all iusL rnnnino the clock backwards so you can't tell what time it is.
