annmnnn IFsa DD(iDdlgno Dodgers Face Real Test In Home Stand Against West By HARRY KECK, SPORTS EDITOR Manager Leo Durocher and hU Brooklyn Dodger face the most crucial two weeks of their battle for the National League pennant beginning today, when the Western teams open tneir nnai invasion 01 ine t.asi. The Dodgers are only a half-game ahead of the Cardinals, and they must stand off the pressure of three of the four power teams of the league and also Chicago and then move into a series with the Giants, who can be tough when they're playing anything that's ri' I I 1 4 0 MAKES A TICKET SALE speuea o-r-o-o-K-i-y-n. The Pirates smack the Dodgers first, and it's been only three weeks since they took the Brooklyns four out of five at Forbes Field to slow them down. This time they meet for four Then the Brooks take Chicago for three games and i LEO DIROCHER then games. on four and wind up with two against the Reds, while the Cardinals hope they'll be lapping up some gravy in three games Boston, three in Philadelphia and two in New York, in addition to the four sockdologers with the Dodgers.

Of course, the schedule will even up later, when the WHO WANTS A $1.65 TICKET SiMiTeleilphgijort AUGUST 18. 1941 BEST FOR SPORTS PAGE FIFTEEN Cards will have to finish up against the Western clubs while the Dodgers will be tangling with the Phillies, Giants and Braves, but the pardon may come too late. The Brooklyns can be knocked out in the next two weeks. If they can hold their own during that time they figure to be the team to cop the pennant. The Pirates, by reason of their slump of the past week, during which they won only two games out of seven, apparently have lost whatever chance they had to make a seri-ous bid for the flag and will be fighting it out with the Reds for third place.

Only 34,292 fans saw the Pirates and Cards in their ballyhooed doubleheader yesterday, whereas it was expected more than 40,000 would be on hand. This was due, of course, to the sellout buildup. Fans who couldn't buy reserved seat tickets refused to go for scalpers' prices or get in line four hours before game time for the doubtful privilege of obtaining standing room. It was a plain case of a big day being oversold in advance. It's better to undersell the drawing powers of an attraction than to oversell it.

It's always better to turn 'em away than to scare 'em away. Promoter Jake Mintz has a similar situation in connection with his return bout between Irish Jimmy Webb and Mose Brown at Hickey Park tonight For almost a week the fans have been told that all of the reserved seats have been sold. Now it develops that the dawn of the day of the battle finds some 800 still remaining in the box office if anybody wants 'em. The Brown and Webb Return Bout This Webb and Brown battle is one of national importance because the winner of it will be in the running A f'." i i is I 1 1 I 1 i An Even Cut YESTERDAY'S FIRST OAMK I ST.

Webb was set to fight Gus Les-nevich in the final bout of an elimination tournament in New York to determine the successor to the retired Billy Conn when he boxed Mose in the Millvale ring three weeks ago and was knocked out in the second round, an upset that echoed throughout the fistic world. As a result, Webb has been dropped from the eliminations and Tami Mauriello has been substituted against Lesnevich. If Webb redeems himself here he will get the winner of the New York bout.

If he loses again, McKeesport's Mose naturally will rate the title match. NEAR FORBES FIELD With Cards SCORES SBCONP HAMJI ST. IXJCIH AH. R. H.

DOYLE Staff Correspondent BROOKLYN, Aug. 18. Far from the Forbes Field tumult and shouting of yesterday, Frankie Frisch'a Fighting Pirates were set today for a four-game test with the Dodgers, who took over first place in the National League yesterday. Tonight's bout may be as thrilling as their first meeting. Both can punch and there is the possibility of knockout either way.

Webb, boxing more cautiously, may get keen revenge. Brown may prove he has the Indian sign on the Irishman and. having beaten him once, is SUIT Correspondent BROOKLYN, Aug. 18. capable of doing it again any On the other hand, return be the most awful duds, with You never can tell.

Up to now. it's been a little of this and a little of that in Ford fiesta, and some of the boys got a ham sandwich and some came up with a Juicy steak. The Brooklyn Dodgers found a choice tld bit yesterday in the Boston Braves and are resting, at the moment, at the head of the table by a half game.

The St.j Louis Cardinals picked a tough order of beef in the Pittsburgh Pirates and sank out of first place with a doubleheader split. As usual, the Yanks are going to have their American League duties done up early and will have plenty of time to rest up and prepare a proper greeting for the lucky fellows from the senior circuit. The Bronx Dandies mowed down Connie Mack's Athletics yesterday, 2-1. and 4-3, to push their league lead up to 17 games, with only 35 to go. It's all downhill now.

especially since Cleveland 'has dropped out of second place. MASI SPOIXS IT i Brooklyn's front-line fiingers performed yesterday. First Kirby Higbe served up a five-hitter to scalp the Braves, 5-1. Then Whltey Wyatt went out there and for eight and one-third innings he had the first perfect game in nearly 20 years. But, with one gone in the ninth, Phil Masi, a fearful batsman with an average currently soaring in the poked a pitch over second base for a single.

Wyatt wound up with a one-hitter for a 3-0 whitewash job. The Cards, meanwhile, sailed into Pittsburgh in the first game as though they owned the Bucs, Sparked by a four-run first-in ning rally, they coasted to a 7-1 decision behind Mort Cooper's seven-hit throwing. In the nightcap, the Pirates piled up an 8-2 edge, largely through a six run second-inning party. Long Lon Warneke was belted out of the box for the third straight time. The Phllllles drew 6.587 to Shibe Park their biggest crowd since June 6 to watch the local boys larrup Bill Terry's humpty dumpty Giants twice, 6-2 and 18-2.

The Dodgers will battle behind Freddie Fltzsimmons, who owns 13 wins In a row over the Pittsburghers. A dual bill is slated tomorrow. Despite their big hospital list, the Pirates were in a fine mood as they landed here. They gave an amateurish performance in losing to the Cardinals, 7-1, at home yesterday, but they came back on the field swinging their punches and made it two out of three in the hot series by giving the Redbirds a convincing trouncing in the nightcap. 8-2.

The setback knocked the Cards off the top perch. CROWD BOOS, CHEERS A crowd of 34,292 saw the Pirates fold up in the first inning of the first game, and Bronx cheers rent the air as the Bucs foozled over a flock of Redblrd runs. But the same fans remained to cheer as they won behind Rip Sewell's de luxe Ditching In the second game. Rip held the classy Cards to five hits. By splitting the bill, the Pirates were able to stay In a third place deadlock with the Reds, who divided their doubleheader with the Cubs.

Arky Vaughan, Bob Klinger and Lee Handley were the principal Pirate casualties as the Bucs swung Into the East on their fourth and last Seaboard tour. Vaughan scarcely could talk and was suffering considerably after giving up an impacted wis-rinm tooth.
