The Tiger righthander and a former teammate, George Gill, dueled before a thin crowd of 1.797 in a playoff of yesterday's 5-5 tie, and the decision rested on Greenberg's swat into the left-field pavilion with none on la the eighth.

The homer. Hank's twenty-fifth of the season, broke a 2-2 deadlock and shortly afterward fleet-footed Pete Fox doubled. Trying to steal third and thus getting a big start. Fox raced all the way home when Frank Croucher grounded out to Mark Christman behind second base. BT I.OC1S DCTROlT Ab.

CeiseL Monarty. Rue. Time 1 50. HiAt in 7 1 nrn -fcr i fly-Cs M. GIBBS SOMEONE once reached the decision that it was the little things in life that count.

And so there is the little matter -f a knee cartilage worrying the Yanks in general and Joe DiMaggio in particular. The California Italian is well on his way to being considered one of baseball's greatest players. He can just about do everything required of a standout diamond worker, throw, field, run, hit, hit AND hit, has a good competitive temperament and well he's headed for the supreme heights. At least he was. But now comes the matter of a little knee cartilage that has him worried and threatens to handicap him.

In Boston the other day he slipped the cartilage in his right knee. He had to get out of the game but was able to come back in the second contest after the club trainer had him. Now conies the suspicion that he may have develooed one of those so-called trick knees. A trick knee is one that slips out of joint at times from a slight jerk or twist and needless to say they are a big handicap. These things can develop into a serious condition, sometimes requiring surgical attention.

When a ballplayer's legs reach the point where surgery is necessary his days are usually numbered. All this worry about DiMaggio may be premature but from now on he and the Yanks will be worried about that leg and this isn't going to help him a bit. It is to be hoped that this lad who many consider the greatest player in the game today won't have a brilliant future cut short by one of the little things in life that count. Local Diamond Season Over Today NOTHEK local ball season comes to a close here today and it must be marked down as another disappoint ment to the fans. It was felt that with the acquisition of Rogers Hornsby things might be different To a certain extent they were.

The present club "has been one that has played its best on all occasions, and one in prime physical condition from start to finish. Never has there been a sign of quitting regardless of the score. i I ACK of competent pitching has been the main drawback, and other things well known to the fans cropped up to hamper the outfit's efforts to at least gain a playoff position. Next season there will be an entirely new setup from the front office on through the field leadership. In haddition the team for the first time will be playing on a working agreement basis with a major club.

Any talk of the outlook would be both premature and lacking in real interest at this particular time. Next year is a long ways off. conditions in the world being what they are. Porter Does Swell Job QIVING Dick Porter a cheer for his grand job of piloting the Syracuse club is something you can't help doing. He has kept a club in the first divi sion that had no business being there.

A swell pitching staff has been of great help. But it needed something more than this and whatever it was Dick provided. gASEBALL'S big mystery is why the Red Sox can beat the hide off the Yanks, taking 10 and losing only 5, and one of the latter was that forfeited game the other day when the Sox stalled. This business has the Yanks sore and upset. They have seven more to play with he Sox and will be found straining themselves to take every single one of them.

The Bombers feel their honor is at stake. But if they fail to erase this black mark from their 1939 record it is probable that their hurts may be eased somewhat when they collect their slice of the World Series cake. Such things have a marvelous healing effect, so one hears. Hitting; When They Count pHARLEY KELLER has hit eight homers this season. Only one came with the bases empty.

The records show he has batted in 16 runs with his round-trip pokes. It's getting so that when Charley steps up to bat with men on base the pitchers instinctively turn to look at the distant barriers, and this doesn't aid them a bit. Connie Mack Returns Philadelphia.

01 01 By C. M. GIBBS Jack Tising and Dick Midkiff, prin cipals in the controversial trade with Syracuse some time ago, pitched on opposite sides last night. Tising threw his game away, while Midkiff came through with a swell mound effort, as the Chiefs lost both ends of a double- header to the Birds, 4 to 3 and 6 to 0 and skidded into the second division. Tising was opposed to Harry Ma tuzak in the first game and the hits allowed were six and seven, re spectively.

In the nightcap Midkiff gave up only four hits, while the Birds got six off Mike Meola. Midkiff didn't issue a pass until the ninth, when he walked two men. Up to that time only four men had reached first base, one on an error. Sparkling Plays Shown The games produced some sparkling and interesting baseball in spite of the shower of errors on both sides. Altogether there were 11 misplays during an evening when the large turnout seemed in an unusually happy state of mind.

Between games a performance was given for the entertainment of the fans. In the opening test, started In day light, the Chiefs couldn't do anything with Matuzak in spite of several opportunities where a hit would have turned the tide. The Bird right hander kept the Chiefs hitting the ball into the dirt for the full seven in nings. The Flock counted twice in the first frame on Etten's homer with Sankey on base, after the Chiefs had been presented a run on errors by Sankey and lailJard and a base hit. Gill's Throw Saves Game In the Bird second the contest was decided when a bad throw by Tising gave them two runs and victory as it developed.

Warren opened with a scratch single to third. Tising then took Lillard's soft one, and threw badly to second base, everyone being safe. He then fanned Corbett and Matuzak, but Graham walked and Sankey sent Warren home with a single to left. The ball got away from Taylor and Lillard also scored. That was the ball game, although it took a fine throw to the plate by Gill to save it in the sixth.

Bob Porter homered in the Chief third, and in the sixth both Dean and Hall singled. Sankey came up with a bad throw oi TLsing's rap and Dean scored, Hall reaching third. Kahny hit a fly to Gill and Hall was out at th plate trying to score after the catch. Graham won the second game with a three-run homer in the second inning. Hits by Etten and Corbett, mixed up with two walks and an error, added two more in the third.

Sankey scored the final run when he was hit by the pitcher, moved to sec ond on an out, stole third and kept on home on Bottarini a bad heave. The season here closes with a single fame tonight. SlRACt'SE ORIOLES Ab.R.H.O.A., Ab.R.H.O.A. Kahny 4 10 2 1 fJraham ef 1 PorLr.rf.. 4 1110 Sankry.3b.

The victory stretched their advan tage over the Cards to five full games and should have a great moral effect on Bill McKechnie's outfit as they come down the stretch. Many followers were ready to count the Cardinals out if they lost today's contest replay of a 6-6tie Monday.

Hero of the game was veteran Bucky Walters, who held the Cards to seven hits then stepped up in the tenth inning with the score tied and drove a sizzling single to center field to score Frenchy Bordagaray from second base with the winning run. The Reds then scored another run to clinch it. Walters Is Hero Bordagaray's part in the rally was greater than the score sheet indicates. The little speedster he played with the Cards when they were famed far spectacular base running smashed hard single to short center, but raced on to second and was safe when Lynn King juggled the balL Scoring Chances Nipped-The Reds scored in the first inning on Eddie Joost's triple and Ival Goodman's single.

5 Rookie Hugh Casey, pitching with only two days' rest, handcuffed the Boston Bees with six hits today to lead the Dodgers to a 6-to-2 victory over the Hub City club. He and Lou Fette hooked up in a tight pitching duel for three innings, but Dolph Camilli's twenty-fourth homer of the year, with a mate aboard in the fourth inning, broke it up. After that the Brooklyns were never headed as Casey chalked up his eleventh victory of the 6eason. Clinched In Fifth Another two-run splurge in the fifth, started by Casey's double, clinched the game. stom nnooKLY.v Ab.tt.ll.n.A! Ab.R.H.O.A an a it a ri.M.1 ok a l.

It swings quickly to this point: If Ken Strong, of the Giants, isn't the greatest all-around football player in the game's history, who is? This covers a large flow of territory Willie Heston Jim Thorpe Ernie Nevers Dutch Clark Eddie Mahan Red Grange Walter Eckersall Frank Hinkey Bronko Nagurski we could write on for half an hour. Which brings us back to Ken Strong, who after more than fifteen years of service was still good enough to score two-thirds of the points rolled up against the pick and pride of the collegians. An All-American Team Years ago three well-known college coaches sent me wires to this effect 'No one has to bother about picking an All-America team this falL His name is Ken Strong." Their teams had played against him. "We'll now take you back to one of Ken Strong's last college games. It was the day Chick Median's N.

Y. U. faced a team from Carnegie Tech that had wrecked Notre Dame one of Rocknc's good teams. It was the day Al Lassman was injured beyond repair. Judge Walter Steffcn was coaching the Tartans.

One of the smartest cf all coaches and Dlavers the coach K.nute Rockne always feared Steffen had seen or had played against Heston, Thorpe and most of the star headline. That night after the game we sat together for several hours. One Man Wrecks Team ''This is the first time in mv career. he told me, "that one man was good enough to run over and completely wrecK an exceptionally good team.

If you ever knew the late Wally Steffcn, you had to respect his opinion. Ask Alonzo Stagg, his Chicago coach, who has also been around since 1888, a matter of fifty-one years. Ken Strong was upsetting strong college teams around 15 years ago. He became far better after Steffen saw him. Pro Career Phenomenal His pro career has been phenomenal He was probably no better ball carrier than Willie Heston, who was never called on to kick or throw a pass.

He was no better in many ways than Jim Thorpe or Ernie Nevers. Pop Warner, who picked Nevers over Thorpe, told me the reason for this pick. "Thorpe at his best." Pop said. "But Jim played when he felt like playing. Ernie Nevers always gave out everything he had." Pop only saw Strong when he was riding a stable of charley horses and couldn't walk much less run against Oregon State.

Started As Blocker Strong had one great break. He started out as a blocking back. Here he wvas an expert He then turned into a great running back. To this he added kicking and passing. Weighing over 200 pounds he had unusual speed and a driving force in his legs that few backs ever knew.

Ask Bull Karcis, who played against him. Another outstanding factor has been his stamina over the years. Naturally he hasn't the drive and speed he once carried. You don't keep packing this around after ten years of pro football, piled up on top of your college years. When you consider the number of great football players who have given all they had to the game for over 60 years I mean the thousandsi you risk the end of a limb when you say one man was the best.

Trio At Top Considering the test of both college and pro football I'd say the battle of the swift and the strong was among Ken Strong. Jim Thorpe and Ernie Nevers, with Bronko Nagurski close up. Strong and Thorpe had greater variety. This gives them the edge. 1 mean everything that belongs to foot ball running, blocking, tackling, pass ing and every type of kicking.

There will be a parade of great football players in tomorrow night's game. And there will be a doubly interesting angle when Jock Sutherland tosses in his Panthers for at least a brief test Of course, no brief test can mean anything important But it can be in teresting. It can lead to- arguments and debates, which are always a big part of sport Homer Beats Bisons Montreal.
