i jg. August 25, 943 Morton Cooper in 18th Win Braves Bow in lth; Musials Three-Bagger Assures Cardinals Ace Of 3th White Washing BOSTON, Aug. 24 UP). Mort Cooper kept 11 hits, including a pair of two-baggers, well scattered today while gaining his 18th1 victory of the season for the St. Louis Cardinals with 10-lnnlng 1-0 shutout over the Boston Braves.

The Cardinals ace righthander ace Tigers Nip Yanks 3-1. AfterBowing in Opener To, Spud Chandler 2-1 DETROIT, Aug. 24 W. The New York Yankees hopes of talking their 12th consecutive series were shaken Somewhat today bs the Detroit Tigers divided a closely-contested double-header and remained in front of the Yanks three games to two with another double bill coming up tomorrow. Chic Superlative pitching kept the big midweek turnout of 18,769 paying fans engrossed in both games as Spurgeon (Spud) Chandler captured the fir.

2 to 1 with four-hit hurling and Virgil (Fire) Trucks retaliated with a three-hit performance to snare the nightcap, 3 to 1. A fifth-inning home run by Nick Etten, his 13th, averted a shutout for the Yanks in the afterpiece and temporarily tied the score. But in the seventh Inning big Ernie Bonham cracked to give the Tigers the two runs that furnished theii margin of victory. Doc Cramer singled for one of the tallies and Bonham, noted for his control, walked Dick Wakefield with the bases loaded to force in the other. Detroit scored in the second on two singles and an infield out.

Chandler had little trouble earning his 16th victory against three defeats in the first game. Bill Johnson put hm ahead with a double in the first inning and knocked in what proved to be the deciding run with a long fly in the fifth after Chandler himself had doubled and gone to third on Roy Weatherlys safe bunt. Two singles and a fly by Rudy York gave Detroit its lone run in the sixth.

Joe Lawler and his New Cumberland clouters did more than buy a set of musical instruments for their buddies from Tobyhanna Air Base.

As the gals at the Spinsters Center used to say: "They won themselves a home. Also a wealth of admiration from the good neighbors assembled at the Stadium the evening Lawlers competent candidates for the national military title put on a 16-1 bombing display here. Normally a score of this size would indicate an uninteresting stay. The Cumberland boys were a pleasant contrast. Thanks to their hustle, wholesome energy and general endeavor or (yes he was with the squad), if Few pro teams, and this m-li eludes Nemo Leibolds ever digging Miners, have excelled the Lawlerites in the manner of 'giving honest to goodness service.

Thus they were running out everything even when the count stood 8-1 in the ninth, and exposing their star, Pat Mullin, to possible injury by stretching c.n ordinary single into a double via a daring slide. The onlookers would have to be blase to depart without expressing their gratitude. Fact is, theyve been going it ever since. Also asking a few questions. Such as "How would the New Cumberland boys do in the Eastern League? The answer 1 is easy.

Sgt. Lawlers crowd would hold their own in a good year; certainly, finish no lower than second or third this year. Yes possibly capture the pen! nant. Of course this is merely one nans opinion. But a most sin-cere one.

While were in a generous mood, and willing to climb far out on the limb, how about listening to our hunch of the Governors Cup line-up three weeing hence. From this seat the order of finish will be Scranton, Elmira, Albany and Binghamton. Although the lat-3 ter duo could conveniently ex- change places on a few minutes notice. Theyre that evenly matched at this writing. The Miners should get by the Z.

semi-finals of the playoffs in good shape, regardless of the opposition. But if Elmira lands in the deciding round and the Pionneers are still intact, look for a repetition of last years torrid series with the Trips. 1 The teams are gaited that way. Yes I know the Barons are among the missing. We counted v- em out nearly two months ago, hoping all the while that we were wrong and that by some miracle Tony Lazzeris gang would land among the first quartet.

Now it looks as if theyll do well to stay above Z. Hartford which mustnt be en- ytirely overlooked in any con- at fi nn 'pideration. Truett Sewell Credited With 19th Decision Dodgers Bow, 9-6, In Twilight Game Halted in Sixth BROOKLYN, Aug. 24 UP). Truett (Rip) Sewell attained his 19th victory against five defeats today as the Pittsburgh Pirates beat the Brooklyn Dodgers 9 to 6 in a twilight game that was halted by darkness, after six inryngs.

Sewell failed to finish in the face of a 16-hit attack by the Dodgers- and three errors by his teammates, but the Pirates, who made 13 safeties off Curt Davis and two other hurlers, scored in every inning and clinched the game with four runs in the fifth.

They will be supported by Paul Mitchell of Minnesota, Joe Wolff of North Carolina, Bob Zimny of Indiana and other rank-in stars. The Redskins, led by their incomparable Slinging Sammy Baugh, will be seeking to avenge their, defeat of 1938, which marked the last victory in the series for the All-Stars. As long as Baugh is able to throw his electrifying passes he will be a threat to the All-Stars hopes. The Redskjns have a starting lineup experienced in power and team play, and which stands as a barrier the All-Stars must penetrate before they can prove their potential greatness. 3 0 0 0 3 2 110 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 10 0 0 0 0 0 cDal'sdro 0 0 0 0 0 Jurges.3b Chase, -Feldman, Hubbeli.p Adams, zManruzd zzElaat Al'en, 0 0 0 0 Hack, 3b ry.cf,2b Mcrullo.a McCugh.e Blttiom.p Wamek.p 0 0 0 0 0 Novkf.U 1 1 1 0 0 5 1110 4 3 3 8 1 3 12 3 0 9 12 4 0 3 0 13 2 9 0 115 4 112 1 2 0 0 0 0 Total.

V- Como Cotelle Claims Hes Oldest, Easterner Some boys, and a few ladies, take a year off their age each year after attaining a certain stage of maturity. Particularly is this true among the baseball set. Yet heres Como Costelle, the midget Hartforder, take his hair down to confess Im probably the oldest regular 'in 2 the League. i Hie rare statement started the historians searching their files and at last reports Costelle was still leading. Principally because quite a few competitors 2 have various ages to suit cer- tain situations.

Such as the draft board; insurance examiner, the ball club owner. Thus 2 one Is astonished to learn Jack Kimball of Utica Is only 38; Chet Covington 28 and Tony Lazzeri less than 40. Yes Diogenes you can stop at Cotelles locker. Hes your man, beyond the slightest ques- tion of doubt. Just to keep the records straight (try it sometime, pal) there never has been a grand slam at the Stadium That is.

a home run with the bases loaded. And if youre still insistent very few indeed, with two aboard let along a trio. Try and name one two-on, incident. I honestly cannot. The supreme in thrills, however, keeps happening elsewhere.

As a matter of accurate reporting it has occured in four Eastern League com-. munities this year. Fat Pat Seerey got a base cleanser at Albany; Woody Fair in Utica; Frank Doljack in Elmira and Don Manno via the Hartford fence. Only Fair and Manno had the advantage of familiar home surroundings, although there was nothing familiar about the pitches they belted out of the enclosure. Mannos came off Charley Haag who came back with a no-hitter for the Trips and then yielded two sparse safeties in 14 innings.

So that being the victim of a grand slam could also have its advantages. Incidentally Butch Nieman has already deUvered more reund-trippers in a few weeks than be registered in all of 42 In the Eastern. Could be bigger rl- In the Tommy Richard-t domain.

24 UP). A capacity crowd of 50,000 will witness the opening game of a nationally war-geared football season tomorrow night with the Washington Redskins, national professional champions, meeting the College All-Stars in the 10th battle of the contest will be played in flood lighted Dyche Stadium, Northwestern University football field, with the All-Stars, rated as one of the best squads ever as-, sembled for the event, seeking to end a four year victory of the National Football League champions. The kickoff will signal the start of one of the strangest years iiv football history. To date 236 schools have canceled their gridiron schedules, and the colleges carrying on have been forced to adjust their programs to meet manpower shrinkage and oilier problems raised by war. The All-Stars, thoroughly, prepared by a coaching staff headed by Harry Stuhldreher of the University of Wisconsin, probably will take the field as a slight favorite.

The college team has By ROMNEY WHEELER ATLANTA, Aug. 24 UP). Ditch that dirge for Dixie football. The patient may be a little weak from manpower anemia, but most of the big name schools will be doing business at the same old stand, come Autumn. True, a dozen schools in the Southern and Southeastern Conferences have suspended football for the duration, including big-leaguers like Tennessee, Vanderbilt, Auburn, Mississippi State, Mississippi, William and Mary, and Virginia 1 Tech.

But at least 16 major colleges are carrying on, along with wan-born service schools like the Georgia and North Carolina Navy Pre-Flights, and the Memphis Naval Air Technical Training Center. In addition, some schools which previously abandoned football have indicated intention of a come-back, including the University of the South (Sewanee), Howard, -George Washington, and the University of Miami at Coral Gables, Fla. Miami played last season, but later expressed doubt it could operate in 1943. More than 70 major football games will be played by southern WHOS MISSING LEGS?
