By JUDSON BAILEY BRIGGS STADIUM, DETROIT, Oct. 5. OP) The courageous cinnati Reds coursed back onto even terms to the 1940 World Series today by muzzling the Detroit Tigers. 5jto 2, on the five-hit pitching of big Paul Derringer. The Reds raided three Detroit pitchers for 1 1 hits and were always on the attack, to the amazement of a crowd of 54,093 who turned out for the fourth fracas of the annual autumn classic.

They kept up a more or less constant shower of hits, but the important contribution to the conquest was the strong-arm hurling of Derringer. First Series Win in Five for Derringer It was the fifth time the 33-year-old Kentuckian Aad started In a World Series, once when he was breaking in for the St. Louis Cardinals and four times with the Reds, and this was his first victory. He went into today's tussle as a bit of surprise strategy on the part of Manager Bill McKechnie and determined to stifle the Tiger sluggers. He did It with the same stout-hearted elbowing that he has used to pull the National League champions out of many another tight hole.

He was "wild at the start, but the longer he pitched the tougher he became, giving no hits and no walks after the sixth inning. Reds Pounce on 'Dizzy' Trout The Reds, in the meantime, had pounced on Paul (Dizzy) Trout for two runs in the first inning and shelled him off the mound before he got anybody out in the third. As usual the bell cow of the Cincinnati club was Bill Werber, who went to the plate five times and got on base four with two singles and two walks. He waited out a pass to start the game and after he had been forced the rignt new screen lor a triple. Derringer walked Catcher Billy Sullivan, a left-handed hitter, and Earl Averill, pinch-hitting for Smith, flied out to end the uprising.

The only other hits that Derringer gave up were a single by Higgins with one on and two out in the second and a single by McCosky with none on and one out in the fifth. The big right-handed star, who won 20 games and lost 12 during the regular season, and usually has fine control, caused some alarm in the early frames by allowing six walks, one of them intentional, but he kept as cool as an icebox and received fine support in every crisis. Derringe Has Control In the first inning when he walked McCosky, Second Baseman Eddie Joost started a double play that immediately ended the inning and again in the fifth when McCosky had singled Derringer himself fashioned double killntg. The victim each time was Charley Gehringer. He struck out four batters, each in a different inning, to keep matters under control.

This triumph atoned well for Derringer's defeat in the opening game at Cincinnati and put the Reds in good shape for the remainder of the series, which now is certain to return to Cincinnati and will be the first one to go six games since the New York Giants and Yankees struggled that distance in 1936. Manager Bill McKechnie said after the game he was undecided, whether to start young Gene Thompson tomorrow or come back with Bucky Walters, whose three-hit pitching piloted the Reds to their victory in the second game. Thompson ts. Newsom Today Likely The best judgment here was that Thompson probably would get his chance at last. With the tide even McKechnie can afford to string along with the young fast-baller just as Del Baker did today with Trout.

If Thompson wins, Walters would be available to try for the clincher Monday. If he doesn't, the Reds still would have Walters and Derringer available for the emergency on their own field. Baker expected to start Buck Newsom again' and hoped that the big fellow would repeat his first game success. infield out and scored himself when Pinky Higgins let a grounder by Jimmy Ripple get through him for an error. Trout was touched for two more singles in the second without damage, but in the third Goodman led off with a sizzling single to right center and on the hit and run went to third as Frank (Buck) McCormick singled to right.

Ripple doubled along the left field foul line to score Goodman and put McCormick on third, and send the bespectacled righthander plodding to the showers. Clay Smith, who went to the rescue, squeezed out of the Jam by forcing two players to pop up, purposely passing Billy Myers to fill the bases and then making Derringer lay down an easy -grounder. The Reds kept right on making trouble, however. Werber again walking to open the fourth, going to third as Mike McCormick lined a double into right- and scoring after Goodman had lifted a long fly to Hank Greenberg in left center. Reds Score Run Off McKain in 8th Smith then managed to hold Cincinnati in check for two but was removed for a pinchhitter in the sixth and the Reds went to work on lefty Archie McKain for their final run in the eighth as well as singles in the seventh and ninth.

Two were out in the eighth when Werber needled a 6ingle through the box and went to second on a wild pitch. Mike McCormick came up with another single to bring Werber home. The Tigers' runs came in the third and the other in the sixth and neither touched off an inspired rally such as Detroit produced to win the first and third games of the series. With one out in the second inning Barney McCosky waited out a walk, went to second on an infield out and came racing home as Greenberg hammered a double along the left field foul line. Rudy York walked as Derringer took care to keep good balls away and then Bruce Campbell struck out.

In the sixth stanza two were out before Campbell singled sharply to Werber 3b 3 2 2 2 1 M. McCormick cf 5 1 2 3 0 Goodman rf 5 2 2 1 0 F.

The Steel City boys climbed on their horses in the third period and in 12 plays rode roughshod through the Harrisburg opposition for 76 yards and the winning touchdown. Three fumbles by Achey and one by Wichot, all of them recovered by John Harris proved valuable to them in more ways than one. The first set up the Red and White's touchdowns and the rest pulled them out of tight spots.

John Harris lost no time in piling up their seven points in the first three minutes of the game when a fumble by Achey on the second play after the kickoff was recovered by C. Siler on Bethlehem's 18-yard line. Three plays by Hummel, Rollin and Pletz netted Harrisburg a first down on Bethlehem's 8-yard line. Hummel and Pletz in the next three plays carried the ball to the Bethlehem one where Bethlehem was penalized half the distance to the goal for off sides. Pletz on the next play bucked the line, taking the ball into paydirt.

His placement was good. Play for the rest of the quarter was confined to the center of the field. Taking the ball on their 20-yard line early in the second quarter after Achey kicked over the goal, Pletz and Hummel lost four. Isaac on the next play blocked Pletz's kick, the ball going up in the air and back over the goal line where it was caught by Mann, scoring Continued on Page 14, Column 7 Bethlehem High's Soccer Team Wins Coach Bill Stark's Bethlehem High soccer team won from Reading Hieh. champions of Berks county, by the score of 2 to 1.

5. C4 Little La fayette college forgot the sacrificial role it was supposed to play in a major eastern football battle today and so mighty New York University was the victim of a stunning upset today bowing 9-7 before 12.000 amazed fans. The Leopards, as tough and tenacious as their nickname, didn't give the big town kids a chance to get in the game until midway in the fourth period and by then it was way too late. Hooks Mylin's talented proteges didn't let the ushers clear the aisles before they were out in front by 6-0. On the first play from scrimmage, Jimmy Farrell skipped 66 yards to a score and N.

Y. U. never recovered from the shock. The conversion failed. The Leopards made their margin a winning one in the third period when Charley Nagle skipped 69 yards through the entire Violet team to the 11 on the fanciest bit of running of the game.

Three plays lost four yards but then Walt Zirinsky. the day's brightest star, split the uprights from the 15 for three points and a 9-0 lead. The Violets got violent in the fourth period after Vinnie Rietano stole a Lafavette fumble on the Leopards' 40. They pushed the ball over the last stripe in five plays, with jimmy ligne cracking the center from the one-yard line. Bill Galu converted.

But the underdogs weren't through, even then. And when the final gun sounded, the little Leopards were on the N. Y. 10. That last splurge was due to Far-rell's interception of an N.

Y. U. pass plus a lateral to Zirinsky, who lugged the ball almost home before he was brought down. The gun barked before they could get in another play. The Leopards gained 189 yards to 116 for the Violets but were sadly deficient in the air, failing to complete a pass in seven attempts, while N.

Y. U. was making 118 yards in eight completions. The lineups: Foa. l.faTU l) NYC 7 Xi.E.

Coach Al Julian's Cardinal and Gray warriors, seeking their first triumph of the season, seemed headed in that direction in the first period when Cowboy Jimmy BYanklin sent his team out front with a 33-yard field goal and a 3-0 lead, but the Lions came back in the second period to score a touchdown and then added another in the final session for good measure. On several other occasions the Lions were deep in Muhlenberg territory, once surrendering the ball on the 20-yard line when a pass grounded in the end zone, and again giving up the ball on the two-yard line late in the game when Muhlenberg held for downs. Despite the score, the ball game was anything but one-sided, as the statistics show that Albright tallied nine first downs while Muhlenberg registered one less. But Albright displayed a fine passing attack, Killiany to Kolkolus and Killiany to Petrucks, which spelled defeat for Muhlenberg. Bud BoBsick.

Muhlenberg's sharp-shooting forward passing star, was thrown for losses on at least a half dozen occasions during the game, simply because the inexperienced Muhlenberg forward wall couldn't prevent the Albright line from charging in on top of him before he could get rid of the ball. Bossick was injured late in the first ialf and had to be assisted off the field, but gallantly came back to play pr.actically the entire second half. Johnny Harayda. Muhlenberg guard, played through practically the whole game despite a broken thumb received in practice during the week, while Lindley Yerg, Bossick and Mmlfri went into the game with injuries and Joe Podany and Pete Gorgone were so badly injured in practice during the week that they were not even in uniform. One of the most spectacular plays of the game came at the start of the second half.

With Albright kicking off, Bossick took the ball on his own five, went up to the 20, and there lateralled to Gus Minifri. The latter galloped over along the sidelines, and went 67 yards up to Albright's 15-yard line before he was forced out of bounds. It looked as though Minifri was off for a sure touchdown, and if he had it may have changed the whole complexion of the ball game, since the Lions only held a 7-3 marein at that stage. Later In the game Muhlenbenr. u-ith Jimmy Franklin heaving and Pete Schneider catching, opened up with a series of long passes, and on one of these netted 47 yards.

On this particular play Franklin was ittanriinir back of his own goal line in the game, when he threw a 17-yard forward to Schneider, who lateralerl to Sweatlock, who went up to the 47-yard line before he was forced out of bounds.

Whitehall tallied the first touchdown in the first quarter after a march of 73 yards. A reverse, Klinger to Saeger, was the scoring play. McNeil, who was one of the outstanding players on the field, contributed a 20-yard run to that march.

Nazareth came back strong in the second quarter and marked up its first six-pointer after a 65-yard push. Granda sliced off tackle five yards for the score.

G4) Navy's gridiron warriors, hard as a bride's first biscuit defensively but "cream-puffish" offensively with nay dirt ahead, beat a lighter University of Cincinnati eleven, 14 to 0 today, in a dull contest witnessed by 18,000 fans. The Sailors, using reserves most of the way, ripped the light Bearcat line at will in midfield but had a hard struggle pushing over their touchdowns in the first ard third quarters. uniy twice could Cincinnati penetrate Navy territory, once at the end of the half when they registered their lone first down on the Tar 46, and later on a short Navy kick. A flrst period break gave the Mid dies a scoring opportunity with the game less than 5 minutes old. Malloy Dixon, Cincinnati safety man, butter-fingered a punt on his 6-yard line and Dick Chewning and acting Captain Ken Steen recovered.

Sherwood Werner hauled the pig skin over on the third try and Vito Wild Bill" Vitucci split the uprights from placement. Twice in the second quarter the Tar attack bogged down in pay dirt. Not until the third did the Sailors get up enough steam to tally. Taking the ball on their 36, the Middies marched 64 yards In eight plays for the final score. Morton Topples Central, 6-0, In Jr.

High Loop Coach Ben Greene's Harrison-Morton grid warriors opened the Junior High school campaign yesterday morning with a victory over Central's Red nd White, 6 to 0.

Clair A.A. of Easton and the Heller-town A.C., respectively, in the past two weeks. At the end of the final practice of the week. Thursday night, coach "Slim" Schiavitto was pleased with the progress the team is making their drills and signal practices and he expressed his belief that the entire team will see action today because ev eryone of the 22 men on the team showed up excellently in the practices this week.

That will mean that "Larry Kelly'' Yaindl will start at left end with Watt on the right wying, Myers and Mocse at tackles. DeLong and Schmidt at guard post tions and "Blubber" Winkle at cen ter. Bausch will call signals with Gentile and Bennis at left and right halts, respectively, and Hutter at full back.

5. OP) Notre Dame, perennial contender for the National football championship, swept over Amos Alonzo Stagg's little College of the Pacific team today, 25 to 7, opening the 1940 campaign with an impressive display of power and deception. Stagg, beginning his 51st year as a coach, put a courageous and smart eleven on the field, but was overpowered by the abundant talent of the fighting Irish. A crowd of 30,000 spectators, thrilled to the first quarter scoring drive of Stagg's underdog machine, but it soon became evident that the invaders were overmatched. Alternating a rmooth passing attack directed by Dale Halbert with a tricky ground game, the Golden Tigers drove bo yards against the Irish regulars in the opening period.

Dwayne Mears scored the touchdown on a center plunge from the one and Emil Seifert place-kicked the point. This lead stood up for the stubborn visitors until midway of the second quarter. Bob Saggau tossed a pass to Steve Juzwlk for a 40 yard gain to the Pacific 25. After an incomplete pass big Milt Piepul drove to the seven and then Juzwik faked a reverse and skirted left end for the tally. Piepul tied the score with a perfect placement.

Wearing down the undermanned Stagg men. Notre Dame moved into high gear in the third, Fred Kvans and Bernie Crimmins leading the attack. Crimmins sent the Irish ahead with a 16 yard end jaunt, but Joe Laibers placement was blocked. The Irish muffed several other scoring opportunities in the third but easily clinched the decision in the fourth, scoring two touchdowns in one minute. i Sekela's place kick for the point was blocked, but Jones picked up the pigskin and bounded over the goal.
