It was that first game that! Manager Bill McKechnie wanted.

When it as In the bag, thanks to i Myers' big blow and some stout hearted pitching by the freshman star, Gene Thompson, Bill relaxed and took a flyer on the nightcap. In the second inning of the opener, Mers, with Ernie Lorn bardi and Harry Craft on base, caught one of Curt Davis' fast ones on the nose and bounced it ov the left field wall. That was the ball game. It probably was a painful anti rlimax for the howling crowd of .14,194 who paid their way into Crosley Field expecting the Reds to mop up and close the race, when Bill nominated Lefty Lee Grissom to pitch the second game. The Cards knocked Grissom from the hill In the first inning, scored four runs off him and his immediate successor.

Red Barrett, and ruined the game right there. But It didn't bother Bill. He had saved his ace, Bucky Walters, for today, and he expects Bucky to administer the knockout. If the Cards had won the first tilt. McKechnie had Intended to threw his over worked star Into the second.

The combination of Derringer and Walters is the best bet the National league has had In a decade better even than Ole Diz and Paul Dean of the Cardinals in 1934.

Derringer and Walters already have nailed 51 victories against 17 loses and have worked 57 complete games more than a third of entire campaign. Will McKechnie has given no hint as to which would start the first series struggle. Most fans lean to Walters, who In fact may be the most valuable player in the National league this year, but Derringer has the best curve in the circuit and the advantage of experience In the 1931 World Series with the Cardinals. While McKechnie Is choosing be tween two aces, Manager Joe Mc 1 Carthy of the Yanks must play jwith one ace and a handful of kings. Charley (Rufus the Red) Ruff ing, with 21 victories and seven defeats in his 15th season in the majors, will start the first game tthis year just as he did last October and in 1936.
