But it was the peculiarity of the incident at the street intersection in Owensboro that marks the spell that baseball lays upon those who are familiar with its power to enchain the multitude watching in person, and that much larger multitude listening in by radio as the games are on, long distances away.

The senior offensive end and defensive line backer is still bothered with a sore back, and did not participate in any of the rough work last week. Approximately 30 members of Red Devil grid team journeyed to Lexington to see the Kentucky-Georgia Tech battle yesterday. Coach Leslie Van Meter and his assistants at Catholic spent a good part of last week working with the reserves and the freshmen gridders. The Aces' coaches took advantage of the off week to give his first stringers a much-needed rest, and to polish up the work of the reserves.

The Aces varsity have only light work outs on Tuesday and Wednesday and had Thursday and Friday off. Johnny Helm, first string wing-back who missed most of the Bowling Green game, is recovering from his injury and will probably be By JACK HICKS Both local high school football teams took life easy early with an open date on their schedule last Friday, but they will start getting ready tomorrow for next Friday's opponents. The Catholic High Aces journey to Morganfield on Friday night, while the Senior High School Red Devils play host to the Valley Vikings at Rash Stadium. The Demons, winners of two out of three games thus far, will try to avenge last year's 20-0 loss to the Valley eleven. Demon Coach Joe Brown scouted the Vikings in their 14-13 win over Fern Creek Friday night.

Coach Brown put his charges through rough fundamental drills on Tuesday and Wednesday to sharpen up the blocking and tackling which looked so bad in the 14-0 victory over Sturgis on September 28. The Red Devil regulars had only a light work out Thursday, while the reserves scrimmaged against the Catholic High second team. A one hour scrimmage, with the first team working half the time on offense and half the time on defense against plays run by the sec- nnH t.pn.m fpnt.nrpH Fririnv's nrnr- I i- tice session. The big news in the Red Devil camp is the return to form of 185 pound guard Russell Estes. The big junior, who played a lot of football for the 1950 Demons, was injured in practice early in the season and missed the opening game against Elizabethtown.

He played a little against Padu-cah, and about half the contest at Sturgis. Coach Brown feels that Estes will be able to go all out in the Valley tilt on Friday. All the Demons seem to be in ready to go against Morganfield on If Friday night. Quarterback Jimmy -f' i i i wno nas aiso Deeii muwcu down with a hip injury, is fully recovered after a week of rest. Coach Van Meter saw the Morganfield eleven lose to Madisonvil-le 33-13 on Friday night and was impressed by the size of the Guerilla team.

Although they have won only one game this season, the Guerillas have scored a lot of points. In addition, Morganfield boasts the best punter in Western Kentucky in Barney Elliott, a former Owensboro boy who holds down the fullback slot. The Aces have beaten Morganfield two years in a row, but Coach Van Meter is expecting a tough battle from the Union Countians on Friday night. Associated Press Wirephoto KENTUCKY-GA. TECH.

Up until Saturday, our own Tom Fillion, who starred with the Owensboro Senior High School football team a few years ago, was in carrying the pigskin by rushing. On 32 plays he registered a net gain of 243 yards, for an average gain of 7.6 yards. The average gain of the Wildcats' backs on rushing is 4.78 yards.

We knew we would find anoth-prospect for assistant sports editor, but we did not expect to so soon after the departure of Bill Rose for new fields to conquer. And we are especially surprised that the first real talent to show up is in the person of our News and Views columnist, W. E. Daniel. He caught a sidelight on the current World Series that would have slipped by a less observant person, and wrote for us as follows: Where two of the main streets in Owensboro intersect a peculiar incident of street traffic was observed while the World Series was being played.

The driver of a car in the intersection must have had his radio going its loudest that he would miss no part of the game. And when he was stopped by the traffic light the blare of the radio drew the attention of people on foot who likewise were pausing for a change of the light overhead. But so absorbed were they by the announcer's voice relaying to them a game being played hundreds of miles away that they stood as if rooted each to his particular spot and the car driver listening failed to see the light change and cars behind stretched more than half way the block of street before the driver of the car with the loud radio was aroused from his listening to drive, ahead. To a non-enthusiast of the No. 1 game that annually grips the attention of many millions, the intense interest is a mystery.

But not to followers of the sport, many of whom spend several dollars and drive hundred of miles just to have a ringside seat when the game is begun. Whatever the cost entailed it is paid gladly by those who must travel long distances by highway, rail or by air to sit in when giants of the diamond lock energies and test their skill and do other things that belong in the game of baseball. And the spectacle seen at a street intersection in Owensboro probably was duplicated many times over in other parts of the nation where drivers halted and balked at starting because of their absorption in the game being played states away from the scene of interest witnessed here. Baseball is a game in which men invest huge sums in the building and equipping of places to play and their investments are repaid by income from spectators who never inquire the price of tickets when in the mood to buy, and that mood is not hard to arouse in those to whom the game appeals. Vacations are planned ahead to coincide with the date of the World legal protest after last Monday night.

6. Kentucky gambled for one yard in the final period today, but lost the football and then the game to Georgia Tech. 13-7. Leading 7-6, Kentucky needed the one yard for a first down. Halfback Larry Jones failed to make them on his fourth-down plunge, and Tech took over on the Kentucky 35.

From there, a mixture of short gains and penalties put the ball on the Kentucky one, and Tech Quar- OFFICIALS LEAVE FIELD WITH POLICE ESCORT LEXINGTON, Oct. 6. Officials who worked the Kentucky-Georgia Tech football game here today left the field with a state police escort in a move termed precautionary. A couple of fans ran onto the field after the game to protest decisions and a university official said he asked' the police to go to the dressing room with the officials "as a precautionary move." The school official said "One fellow gofpretty nasty." There was no further commotion. Kentucky was penalized 138 yards to 20 for Georgia Tech in the rough contest.

Five of the penalties against Kentucky were 15 yards each for personal fouls. Kentucky was charged seven times with delaying the game. Tech had three for the same reason. One of the penalties against Kentucky was for offside and gave Tech the ball a half yard away from the Kentucky goal after Kentucky had recovered a fumble at that point. The winning touchdown followed on the next play.

terback Darrell Crawford sneaked over for the winning touchdown. The crowd of 35,000 fans saw Kentucky, sticking to the ground, march the opening kickoff to a tally in less than four minutes. Halfback Emory Clark made the touchdown. Kentucky suffered severely from a string of penalties that added up to 138 yards. Many of the penalties, stemming mostly from roughness infractions, took the steam out of Kentucky drives, and one of them set up Tech's winning touchdown.

Another nullified Kentucky's recovery of a fumble that would have halted Tech's second touchdown. Tech, still undefeated this season, got its first touchdown in the third period as Fullback Glenn Turner bowled across from the three. A 68-yard run through the center by Johnny Hicks set up the play. Kentucky almost recovered twice after its gamble backfired. Turner started the Tech drive with a nine-yard advance and George Maloof got a first down on the Kentucky 24.

A series of plays and penalties set Tech back to the Kentucky 31 with third down and 17 yards to go. Then misfortune struek the Ken-tuckians again. A pass was incomplete on the Kentucky 20, but a roughness penalty carried the ball to the Kentucky 11, with fourth down and two yards to go for a first down. Crawford, surrounded by Ken-tuckians and seemingly trapped for a loss, pitched out to Pete Ferris on the one. Then a Tech fumble was recovered by Kentucky, but there was an offside penalty to nullify the advantage the Sugar Bowl champions would have gained.

Crawford scored from the one and that ended the ball game insofar as scoring was concerned. Kentucky scored immediately after the kickoff, driving 62 yards in eight plays. Harry Jones lugged the kickoff to the Kentucky 38 and he and Emory Clark moved it to the Tech 45. Babe Parilli passed 24 yards to Ed Hamilton and Jones and Clark lugged It to the three, from where Clark scored. Jones converted and it was 7-0.

Tech, with only two first-half journeys into Kentucky territory, found its punch in the third period. Taking the ball at their own 17, two plays gained eight and little Hicks, a 170-pound sophomore, burst through the middle of the line and streaked down the sidelines to the 10, where Clark caught him from behind. Maloof and Turner made the final advances. Tech's principle threat in the first half, a 38-yard pass from Crawford to Davis, advanced the ball to the Kentucky 16, but a tight defense threw the unbeaten Georgians back to the 24. Kentucky appeared headed for a touchdown at the opening of the second half as John Ignarski recovered a fumble by Dick Goudy at the Tech 28.

But a penalty stopped the drive and in four Kentucky tries netted just one yard. Penalties beset Kentucky on numerous occasions, a total of 138Vi yards being assessed in the rough game against the Wildcats. Tech was set back only 20 yards. Kentucky, sorely needing a victory to regain some of its lost prestige, suffered its third defeat in a row. This Is the first time such disaster has struck Kentucky since 1948.

"We lost to a good team, well balanced, well prepared as all (Coach Bobby) Dodd's (of Tech) teams are," commented Coach Paul Bryant of Kentucky. "Our own team showed a lot of improvement over last week." "It was a marvelous victory and a great exhibition of courage by our boys," said Dodd. "It was a rough game on both sides and we received several Injuries." Young Tom Fillion, Owensboro and neard the voice of the an-: nouncer were followers of baseball. And to many who were parts of the phenomenon there was i awakened a higher regard for the game that may be played on town lots, in open fields, on vacant spots convenient to schools, where boys and youths test their strength, and where grown men Joust in friendly rivalry in the game that stops traffic and keeps radio lis-places. It happened in Owensboro teners glued to their stopping on Thursday afternoon.

YANKEES ACCUSE STANKY OF USING FOOTBALL TACTICS IN WORLD SERIES WILL GRIMSLEY NEW YORK, Oct. 6. IP) The usally complacent Yankees, fuming and fretting in their dressing room, accused the Giants' Eddie Stanky of using football tactics today in the Giants' 6-2 third game victory in the World Series. "I've never been kicked so hard in my life," complained Phil Rizzuto, the Yankes' stellar shortstop who also was hit by a pitched ball in the eighth. "I'm black and blue all over.

I've played football but I never took the punishment I took Stanky's kick, described by crusty Manager Casey Stengel as a "field goal good for 40 yards," was the turning point, of this vital third game and perhaps of the entire series. The Giants now lead, 2-1, with their ace pitchers coming up. Here's what happened: Stanky, second man up in the fifth, walked and on a pitch to Alvin Dark shot down to second. The Yankees' Yogi Berra rifled the ball to Rizzuto and apparently had Stanky out by a mile. But suddenly the ball shot out of the air into centerfield and Stanky streaked for third, while the Yankees stormed onto the field in protest.

Before the inning was over, the Giants had five runs, giving them a 6-0 lead and there was no longer a tight pitching battle between Hearn and the Yankees' Vic Ras-chi. "We weren't complaining to Bill Summers) about Stanky kicking the ball," said Stengel. "Everybody who saw the play. Including Rizzuto and Gene Woodling in left field, insisted Stanky didn't touch the base." Rizzuto said Stanky got his season's mixed up on the play, but added: "It was a smart play. That little cuss has pulled a lot of smart plays on us in this series." "I don't think he should have gotten away with kicking the ball out of my hand because it was obviously on purpose but you've got to give the guy credit.

That's hard baseball." Rizzuto said Umpire Summers insisted Stanky not only touched the base but also kicked the ball in a slide into the bag. "I don't think Summers was in a position to see it," Rizzuto added. Stanky scored on Al Dark's single. Hank Thompson followed with a single that sent Dark to third and Dark scored when the Yanks' catcher Yogi Berra dropped the ball on a force play at the plate. Whitey Lockman completed the scoring with a home ruq.

Except for Stanky's piece of knavery, Raschi may well have got out of the inning without permitting a run. KEENELAND OPENS FULL MEETING TUESDAY LEXINGTON, Oct. 6. M- Keneland opens its fall racing season Tuesday and the 10-day meeting features the breeders' futurity, the race that starts Bluegrass hard-boots to talking about next year's Kentucky Derby. The noted Juvenile Stakes already is estimated at more than $45,000, a record sum, and might be worth $50,000 this year.

The 2-year-old test, slated for closing day, Oct. 20, attracts some of the top juveniles in the country each year. Two of its winners in recent years, Whirlaway and Johnstown, went on to capture the Derby the following spring at Churchill Downs. Among the Futurity eligibles this year are Cousin, Tom Fool, Hill Gale, Sub Fleet, War Fable, and Ed's Pride. Tom Fool, by the way, was reared on Duval Headley's Manchester farm which adjoins the track.

Greentree farm bought the youngster as a yearling. Cousin was sold as a yearling at the Keeneland sales for $20,000 by i Coldstream Stud to Alfred Vander- bilt.

Matchmaker Scotty Williams said that the loss would probably not be charged to Lester, as he had a TED SMITS NEW YORK, Oct. 6. Ml The ninnts dressing room buzzed in vic- i tory today but not as might be expected with talk of Whitey lock-man's three run homer, nor of Jim Hearn's pitching nor Sheldon Jones' relief work.

It was Eddie Stanky, the magnificent little brat, that everyone talked about. "That Stanky," said Leo Durocher. "At 1 o'clock he started playing baseball and he just doesn't stop." Leo, of course, referred to the spectacular play that started things rolling in the fifth inning of the third World Series game. With one out, Stanky on first thanks to a base on balls, and Alvin Dark at bat, Stanky streaked for second and Dark threw his bat in an effort to hit the ball. He missed and Yogi Berra's peg apparently had Stanky caught.

The next thing anyone knew the ball was rolling into center field and Stanky was pulling up at third. "Gentlemen, you can't tag Stanky with the ball in your gloved hand nice and easy," said "Stanky must have hit him in the wrist. JOjo White did that to me in the 1934 World Series (Cardinals and Detroit). The ball went one way and my glove went the other. Ever since that I made a practice of holding the ball in my bare hand and making a fast tag.

"What a play it was of Stanky. It was the big play." From then on the Giants rolled. Conceivably things might have been different if Stanky had been out. But ask Stanky what happened and he says: "Look at Hearn's pitching. Look at Lockman's homer.

I didn't do anything." But he grinned in a self-satisfied sort of way. Durocher cleared up one mystery that had everyone baffled his huddle with the umpires in the second inning. It seems Durocher wasn't protesting. anything at all. On the contrary, Umpire Bill Summers was expressing concern at the little group of groundkeepers sitting on chairs just outside the foul line against the walls.

"I reminded him that when we discussed ground rules this morning we explained the keepers always sit there, and he said that now he remembered it, and that was all." Durocher said he asked Hearn two questions in the eighth when he took him out. PLANTATION DRIVE-IN LIQUORS Come In nd tee Whiskey, Wines, Gins. Beer and Mixed Drinks.

Racing TOM FOOL WINS By JOHN CHANDLER NEW YORK, Oct. 6. OP) 0 Fool, flying the famed pink and black silks of the Greentree stable, laid top claim to the 1951 two-year-old championship today by winning the $111,410 Futrity stakes at Belmont Park, just as his daddy Menow did in 1937. With Toronto's Ted Atkinson in the saddle, Tom Fool soundly trounced nine of the finest juvenile colts in the land.

He hit the finish after six and one-half furlongs a length and three-quarters ahead of the second horse, Star-mount stable's Primate. Another length back came the Maine Chance farm's Jet's Date, for third money by a head over Calumet farm's Hill Gail, the Calumet farm colt went off the 9 to 5 favorite by the crowd of 35,700. It was the second Futurity victory for the Greentree stable of John Hay Whitney and his sister, Mrs. Charles Shipman Payson, as well as the second for Atkinson and Trainer John Gaver. The stable won this richest juvenile race in the world with Guillotine in 1949; with Atkinson riding.

Time of the race, run against a stiff breeze blowing up the Widener straightaway course, was 1:17 1-5. Tom Fool, which never started racing until August at Saratoga, picked up $86,710 for his socialite owners and made the Greentree stable the second leading money winning outfit of 1951 with Only Calumet, with $603,505, tops Greentree. The winner was fourth choice in 'the betting and paid $13.50, $6.50 and $4.60. Hill Gail got fourth place by a neck from the Marlboro stud's speedy Jet Master which tired after leading until just before the eighth pole. Atkinson was watching Eddie Arcaro abroad Jet Master and when the Marlboro colt began to tire, Teddy hit Tom Fool a couple of licks with his whip and the colt pulled clear.

Duke Fanelli was sixth, followed by Eternal Moon, Cousin winner over Tom Fool in the Hopeful stakes and Giorgetti, ninth and last. Tom Fool, now winner of four races in six starts and $120,685, was bred in Kentucky by Duval Headley, and sold privately to Greentree for a reported $20,000.
