BROOKLYN CLUB Betting Favors Louis 5-1 ToRetainChampionship Dodgers-Cards Finals Is Wild And Whoopee By JUDSON BAILEY A Sports Writer TN A ROUGH and tumble fight for the National league pennant, there is no club better fitted to i than Brooklyn Dodgers. That's why they're right AYBE GREENVILLE'S BUCKS have shaken the i The Reesemen went out and a ll-inning contest from Clarksdale last night 10-9 in a real battle and it was iheir second win.

Bue it was the great relief pitching of the smiling Dick Drmlhat who came from Greeneville, to hurl for Greenville and did it most effectively. There was all kinds of thrilling events in that game which lasted two hours and 42 minutes. The Bucks had the tilt almost on the hip Hal Grant blasted a double and lied up the contest in the ninth. Rosie Cantrell's double tied it for the Bucks in Ihe tenth and then the finale which Douthat and Reese took part. Tupelo's Gold Wave will be under new coaching next fall when they meet Greenville's Hornets in Andy Reese's home town.

Coach Ralph E. Hinze resigned as athletic director to go to Louisville as head conch, succeeding H. C. Jenkins who went to Clarksdnle. Coach Hinzc has had some good teams in foiatbnll for the Wave and last (all his team proved one of the toughest foes the Hornets have had all season, Tommy Walsh, runner-up to Gene in the stale amateur tournament and Dr.

He had a perfect night at but. Just to show you Pat is a. k. the former Greenwood inficldcr was hit in the face by a bounding ground hall that went tor a double. He returned to his position and took the next high fly hit to him.

Cowboy Jones, gnod-miturcd manager-outfielder from Meudville, said after hist night's same "we are soine to win Thursday night." Cowboy said "just one strike cost us that game last night." He was referring to Kosie Cantrell's long double to center in tile tneth scoring Billy Seal. Lou Bckcza looks pretty good behind the plate. Now that Bobby Snlvosmi is gone Lou's jfb will be that of utility man. He can play the infield and outfield positions, although he says catching Is his real position. Andy Reese used his pitching staff last night in subduing the Clarksdale Red Sox and it was "Alfalfa" Douthat who came through.

The tall Tennesseean has a bright future in baseball, lie has the right altitude. Hard luck has been fastened around his neck here galore, but he is snapping out of That boy Waters who went into the pitcher's box In the eleventh inning: last night, formerly wore the Bucks' uniform.

Their first scrap last February was far from a sensation, yet the mere ract that he lasted the 15 rounds with the Negro champion qualified the South American iron man for an encore.

The betting is 5 to 1 against Godoy lifting the title, yet most experts give him an excellent chance of going the limit again. The build-up for this, Louis's eleventh defense of his crown, has the negro's well known pride in the power of his fist's and his dislike of having an opponent remain erect at the fi- ptl bell. He has without fail knocked out every man he met Die second time, and his followers are convinced he will smash Godoy tonight. He might, at that, but the task promises difficulties. Louis better shape than he was the other time and is in a vengeful frame of mind.

But so is rugged, powerful rival in better condition, and Godoy besides brimming with confidence born their other bout. In size they are about a stand-off. Godujr Unafraid Godoy possibly is the only lighter, barring maybe Schmel- ng and Galento, who has gone in- the ring with Louis the cham- jion totally without fear and confident of winning. That is some- Ihing on his side. Also he has proved to his own satisfaction, least, a can absorb the Louis blasts.

The only thing Arturo appears to lack, in fact, is a genuine punch in his own fists, if Louis didn't hurt him seriously their first fight, then Arturo certainly did not cause the big negro any great distress, except insofar as his crouching and holding tactics got on Joe's nerves. Changing Styles There has been much talk of both men changing their styles loi this engagement: of Godoy straightening up and fighting toe- to-toe in the classic or Louis bending his head down on level with Godoy's and going round the ring i him like eeuple of vice-president's In deep conference.
