Chi-caco, Pittsburgh and Philadelphia. The gimmick lies ir what's left of the schedule plus an odd similarity of records to date and the weather in Philadelphia and Milwaukee. You can toss in Brooklyn weather, too. Rain postponed the Dodgers' game with the New York Giants last night, the only contest scheduled in the NL. Milwaukee and Cincinnati each have two games left with Brooklyn, all four at Ebbets Field, while meeting each other once, at that more or less leaves the winning of the pennant up to the games L1 Dan Sullivan Allan Kraning Allyn Burt stop.

It will be the 18th doubleheader Season Tonight Football In Winona gets off with a bang tonight with both of the cities high school football teams opening their seasons. The Winona Winhawks will be playing at home against the Mankato High School Scarlets in a game that is not only their 1956 season opener, but also the first of the Big Nine Conference season.

The Ramblers will travel to Arcadia, Wis. to meet the Arcadia High School Red Raiders in a non-conference affair. Both teams have their work cut out for them. The Hawks will be running into a team that compiled a 7-1 conference record last season, and although minus many of their stars, the Scarlets will be tough with two big tackles to stop orange and black threats. The Ramblers, on the other hand, will run into a team that went through the entire season last year undefeated.

The Red Raiders from Arcadia had an 8-0 record and outscored their opponents 229-43 an impressive record that is predicted to be upheld this season. Both teams named captains Thursday to lead them into battle tonight. The Winhawks elected Allyn (Buster) Burt and Allan Kraning as co-captains, and Danny Sullivan was elected captain of the Ramblers. Burt playing at a fullback position, saw a considerable amount of action for the Winhawks last season and is recognized for his hard running and tremendous blocking ability. Kraning was a regular through most of last season when Coach Gordy Paschka switched his starting guards to the tackle positions.

Kraning has been the sparkplug for the Winhawk line in practice sessions the past two weeks. Sullivan is the only returning let-terman at Cotter with more than one letter to his credit. The stocky fullback has won two major awards in the sport and was regular fullback on the Rambler squad of last season. A little bundle of dynamite, the Cotter captain will lead the Ramblers from his fullback position. Both games will get under way at 8 p.m., and for the local fans the Winona High School marching band will perform before the game and at the halftime at Jefferson Field, A pep fest to gain steam for the Hawk clash was slated for 3 p.m.

Go Rambler! Go Winhawks! Nine Letlermen Back ai Peterson PETERSON, Minn. Although bolstered by nine returning letter-men, Coach Bernie Benson of Peterson High School still is skeptical about his 1956 football campaign. Benson said lack of speed will slow up his lightning attack. He thinks Elgin will repeat as league champions with Eyota as a strong contender.
