12 OP) It is highly improbable that any team ever went into the end of a World Series with as many crippling injuries as the St. Louis Cardinals have today as they prepare to meet the Boston Red Sox in the sixth and what may be the final game of the current classic. At least six regular members of the team Enoa (Country) Slaughter, Terry Moore, Howie Pollet, Marty Marion, Al Schoendienst and Whitey Kurowski are on the semi-Invalid list. Probably the most serious Injury Ken Kessinger, Augie halfback, was snapped here crashing through for six-yard gain In the second period before he was downed by Pclelo of the Morningside Maroons. Also shown are Twedel) (33).

Oct. 12 (IP) The North Dakota Agricultural college Bison were hard-pressed today in a 6-0 homecoming victory over South Dakota State's Jackrabbits, enabling the herd to maintain its position as a leading contender in the North Central conference football race. The lone touchdown came In the second period, Charles Basch climaxing a 43-yard march to score. It was a game In which defensive play dominated, both teams being able to check the other effectively.

The Bison didn't allow the Jack-rabbits in their territory, except for recovery of two fumbles and an interception until late in the third after the South Dakotans had registered their initial first down of three they made during the afternoon. The Bison made seven. Small Dudley was the S. D. State backfield star, with George Midchill at efid and 3111 Melody at center the forward wall standouts.

A big Jackrabbit line surprised the herd with its aggressive play, but defensively the Bison were good, especially Center Cliff Roth-rock, who was in on many tackles while he was playing. S. D. Cross Country Entries Reach 40 Pierre, Oct. 12 (iP) Forty entries have been received In the state high school cross-country run at Brookings October 19 and more are expected before the Monday nijht deadline, Executive Secretary R.

M. Walseth of the State High School Athletic association said today. DRAMA was rampant on the state's prep gridirons this week as John Cobb and Co. almost dumped the ragged Aberdeen Eagles, Huron snagged two Washington hiRh passes to make the score look bad against a team that had fought them evenly throughout and the Cathedral Irish ended a long tale of woe with a surprising 32-6 rout of a tough Milbank eleven. One of the most tense situations developed at Yankton's Arirkara Day where the Burks kept their unbeaten homecoming status which has extended over nine years.

The Madison Bulldogs, however, almost tripped that apple cart. WITH the score 12-7 and time running out the Bulldogs were pressing toward paydlrt, In fact a Madison back was on his way on the six-yard line when the timer shot the gun. A penalty against Yankton on the play gave the Madison eleven one more play according to the rules, regardless of the fart that time Lad actually stopped. The Yankton crowd heaved sigh of relief as a pass by Emery was batted down on the goal line That's the first Instance we have heard this year of so much depending on one play, one which actually wasn't part of the ball game. AN OHIO STATE situation sim-liar to the Bixler-Widdoes shift in coaching is operating at Mil-bank.

George Messner was a successful coach at Milbank who took another job last summer. The school board hired "Woody" Greeno, assistant at State college last year, as the replacement. Then the housing deal fell through for Messner asking for something back at Milbank where he had a house to live in, he was rehired. So now Messner runs the team, which plaved at Watertown Friday while Greeno has the A squad, which faced Cathedral. SWEATING out the plays from the press box as spotters Friday night were Edward Lues-chow, Milbank, and Paul McGinty, Cathedral lineman who sat this one out with a broken beezer re- ceived In an auto accident Jast week.

Hottest thing at the Augustana-Morningside game was the coffee concession.

Well it'a do-or-die for 'us and the pore underdog St Louis Cardinals today, Over Indians Rossi, Case Are Right Lefties as Bruins Aim at Rose Bowl By BILL BECKER Los Angeles, Oct. 12 (JP) The Dazzling, hard-hitting Bruins of the University of California at Los Angeles, displaying balanced power tn all departments, rolled over the scrappy Stanford Indians, 26-6, to day before 90,803 shirt-sleeved fans in Memorial coliseum.

Cal Rossi and Ernie Case, a pair of spectacular southpaws, did almost everything right in leading the Bruins to their third straight Pacific Coast conference win and reasserting their claim as the west's foremost candidate for the Rose Bowl. March 70 at Klckoff UCLA steamrollered the Indians for 20 points In the first half to settle the Issue beyond doubt, but Stanford fought back on even terms In the final quarter. The aggressive Bruins took the opening kickoff and marched 70 yards to a touchdown in seven plays, with fleet Left Half Ernie Johnson cutting off tackle for eight yards for the tally in the first five minu-tes of play. After two other drives were stymied on the Stanford 11 and nine yard lines, the Bruins chalked up another quick score early in the second period. Case pitched eight yards to Baldwin, who ran 10 and flipped a lateral to Sub Roy Kur rasch, who lugged it the final 17 yards to complete the 35-yard thrust.

A 46-yard march later in the period culminated in Fullback Jerry Shipkey's three-yard plunge over guard for a third touchdown. Case kicked goal after both second-quar-ter scores to make the half time count 20-0. Indians Scored Fourth Stanford roared back in the third quarter, only to be stopped by Rossi's great defensive play, The stocky Bruin right half intercepted Buck Brownson's pass on the UCLA seven and tackled Fullback Lloyd Merriman, the Indians' ace, at the same point after a 43-yard run to avert two threats. The Indians finally broke through in the fourth frame, driving 60 yards with Merriman circling left end for the final five yards. The Bruins bounced back 69 yards for their final tally, with Rossi circling end for gains of 28 and 11 yards and Kurrasch making his second score by taking Johnson's 17-yard pass on the goal line.

14 8:30 P. M. is the one suffered by Slaughter, the rightfielder, who has been finding the range of late with his booming bat. Slaughter was forced to retire from yesterday's game when hit on the right elbow by an errant pitch by Joe Dobson, and both he and Manager Eddie Dyer were pessimistic about his return to the lineup tomorrow, Pollet Out for Sure Slaughter's Injury' is similar to the one suffered by Ted Williams of the Red Sox shortly before the series. "This is the first time I have been out of the lineup for a single inning this moaned Slaughter.

"I can't lift my right arm at all right now, but unless it Is broken, I'll try to be in there tomorrow." Dyer said that if Slaughter was not in shape to play tomorrow he would start either Erv pusak or Pick Sisler in left field. "Dusak, a right handed batter, hits well against lefties and will play if Mickey Harris starts for the Red Sox," said Dyer. It is fairly certain that Ppllet, who tried courageously tp stem the Boston bats despite an extremely pain ful back ailment in yesterday's 6-3 defeat, will not throw another ball in this series, A source who should know but refused to be identified, said that "unless Pollet gives his bad back a six-month rest, he may never pitch again," "His back and side are in awful shape. How that boy can throw at all is a miracle to me." Moore's playing status has been in doubt each day until the morn? ing of the game. Troubled by a damaged right knee all season, the flashy center fielder doesn't know whether he'll be able to play until he works out the kinks each morning.

Cards Still Old Gang Marion's aching back has been acting up again as a result of the train rides from St. Louis to Brooklyn to St. Louis to Boston and back to St. Louis within two weeks. He cannot lie flat on his back because of the jerking and swaying of the moving trains and Is forced to sleep in a semi-sitting position.

Schoendienst, the 150-pound second baseman, has shed 15 pounds during the season and looks and acts tired. In addition, he has been bothered by a strained muscle in his back and has been taking treatments from Dr. Harrison Weaver, club trainer.

Augustana's falling Vikings played in their own back yard for most of the four periods against the Morn-ingside Maroons at the Augle stadium here last night and all things considered were probably lucky to come out with only a 13-0 loss. In dropping their second North Central conference game and third this year after an opening tie, the Blue and Gold had punts blocked three times which the opportunity grabbing Maroons fell upon for threatening positions near the goal line. It was the first win for the lowans this year.

Passing was the big deciding factor In the Morningside victory as the accurate and muscular throwing arm of Connie Callahan was responsible for most of the 174 yards collected through the air by Coach Les Davis' charges. By contrast the Vikings accounted for only 12 yards by passing. i Ground on Even On the ground the two grid machines were on a more even keel as the Augustanans went 80 yards overland and the Maroons rolled for 88. The Maroon aerial yardage came on eight completions In 21 attempts while the Augustanans were grabbing only one hi nine. The first downs read seven for the winners and four for the losers.

In the second half the luckless Vikings failed to get beyond their own 45. In the second period the home team came the closest to hitting paydlrt as It moved to within the 15-yard stripe, but a pass lntercep tion by the ever-present Callahan stopped the threat, Morningside scored first in the second period when a pass from Cal lahan to Stan Newman gained 33 yards to the Viking seven and Cal lahan followed with another flip of seven yards for the counter. Julius Shkurensky kicked the entra point. The second Maroon touchdown came in the third period on a reversal of the first long gain as Newman heaved a long one over the Viking safety man's head to Callahan on the 20. He ran over untouched to complete a gain of 42 yards; the longest of the contest.

Hhkurensky boot was low ana outside. The half ended with the Ma roons In front 7-0 after Connie Callahan heaved a long loping pass to Stan Newman which netted 33 yards and put the ball on the Viking's seven. On the next play Callahan flipped another short toss to Paul Engle THAT WINS Dog Equipment Shipment of dog leases, collars, chokers, bones, and whistles Just received. VP SPORTS EQUIPMENT Adm.
