THE NEWS-HERALD, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 1, 1932. PACK STJfc MAJOR FOOTBALL Bruins Hope to Find a PS tetter wit Ei Control In Big Comeback Effort Mrs. Vare Plays Miss Van Wie for Amateur Crown "BOY BMIDIT" OF GOTHAM CLICKING IN BOXING GAME them into a single run. The Oubs have outhit the Yankees in the two game, 119 hits to 18, but they have squandered their blows and left enough runners to win bol.h games stranded ou the base paths. The Cubs have had IS men left on bases, 11 In the first game, and 7 in the second game.

The Yanks have had only 9 men left on base, five In the first game and four in the second. Thus the cubs have tossed away their opportunities by the wildness of their pitchers and the fuilure of their batsmen to come through with runners on base. That kind of baseball is exactly the opposite of the brand the Cubs played to wiu the pennant under Charlie Jrlmin. They made every hit count and realized the maximum from their pitchers in their dash down the National League stretch. So it's all very strange Cub fans why the Chicago machine should suddenly fall apart, the pitchers go wild and the hitters hit without men on base and go blind in a pinch.

Improvements: Frame dwelling house. Anything Less Than Complete Recovery of Lost Punch Will Be Useless in Cubs' Rally For Third Came of Series. COOD WEATHER IS FORECAST By GEORGE KIRKSEY, t'nited Press Staff Correspondent. CHICAGO. Oct.

1. 'Dawning of another baseball day found the Chicago null rnllvincr from two smashing de- 1 feats for a back-to-the-wall stand against the mighty New York Yankees, in the third game of the world oeries today. Threadbare of thrills in the two ereat zames at New York, the series i toi.k on a new aspect with its transfer to Wrigley Field, one of the most radical baseball strongholds in all the land. Before a friendly crowd and on a familiar field, the Cubs hope to And a pitcher with control, throw up an impregnable defense and rediscover their lost punch in a pinch. Anything less than that isn't likely to do the National League champions any good at all they must make a complete comeback, and make it quick, or the World Series will 'be over and the championship pennant will flutter from a flagpole in Yankee stadium.

With two easily-won victories in their grasp, the Y'ankees have set their goal for another grand slam and they need onlv two more triumphs to achieve it. The Yankees haven't lost a World Series game since 1926, and have won 10 in a row four in 1827, four in 1028 and two in the present series. Capacity Crowd Expected. A forecast of clear, warm weather promised to bring out a capacity crowd of 51.700 persons, and give Chicago a decision over New York in the stands if not on the ball field. The first game at Yankee stadium drew 41.459 and the second 50,709.

The rival pitchers selected for the third game were Charlie Root, Cubs, and George Pipgras, Yankees. The similarity between these two right-handers is remarkable. Each is 33. Pipgras weighs 190 and Root the same. Pipgras pitched in 217 innings the past season, winning 16 games and losing 9.

Root pitched 216 innings, winning 15 games and losing 10. Each has seen eight years of major league service. But the similarity ends when their World Series records are compared. Pipgras has a perfect record against National League clubs, having beat the Pirates. 6-2, in 1927.

and the Cardinals, 9-3, in 1928. Root pitched two games against the Athletics in 1929. losing the first 3-1, and being knocked out of the box in the 7th inning of the other one after he had an eight run lead. The Cubs are banking on Root because he ha9 control and is not likely to be frightened into losing it by the mere sight of the Yankees crowding over the plate with their menacing maces. And if it's anything the Cubs need at this point in the series more than anything else it's a pitcher with control.

The Cubs' pitchers walked 10 Yankees in the first two zames, and nine of them scored. In the first game the Yankees winning margin was six runs and those six runs were the result of walks. The winning margin in the second game was three runs, and they were the outgrowth of bases on balls. In contrast the Oubs obtained seven walks, and haven't transformed ON THE AIR TONIGHT.

UP The University of Duquesne football team, after a poor start, rallied and scored 20 points in the second half to defeat Grove City College 26 to 0 under the flood lights here last night. The Dukes, in scoring tfheir four-touchdown victory, were unimpressive against the smaller Grove City squad. They fumbled at the Grovers' goal line and their tackling and blocking was sloppy. Coach Elmer Layden started the shock troops and after they pushed over a touchdown sent in the regulars. But Grove City stopped their play.

The second half started with a rush when Jim McDonald, Dukes' star sophomore halfback, raced 57 yards and then 19 yards around the Dukes' right end to score two touchdowns. A 42-yard forward pass from Al Deluca to Johnny Sepsi gave the Dukes their last goal. The Grovers' passing attack from Mike Kouia, fullback, to Buck Tom-ko, right end, put the Dukes in a dangerous position several times. Tomko starred for Grove City, stopping all plays around his end, getting dow under punts and recovering several fumbles. TECH AND GENEVA TO PLAY AT PITT STADIUM PITTSBPRiGH.

By FRANK MURPHY, United Press Staff Correspondent. 'PKAHODY, Oct. 1. For the third time in five years Mrs. Glenna Colk'tt Vare, of Philadelphia, and Virginia Van Wie," of Chicago, met today in the final 30-hole battle for the women's national amuteur golf championship.

Mrs. Vare, the "Bobby Jones" of women golfers, sought her sixth American title In 11 years, while Miss Van Wie sought her first against the Nemesis who humbled her in the 1928 and 1930 wlndups and tieat her in the semi-finals a year ago. By their victories In the semi-finals at Salem 'Country club yesterday, Mrs. Vare and Mlsa Van Wie eliminated the final foreign threat to the championship and the "dark horse of the tournament. The veteran easterner, after a poor start, defeated Ada Mackenzie, of Toronto, Canada, three times champion of the Dominion, 6 and 4.

Miss Van Wie played almost perfect golf to score a 4 and 3 victory over Charlotte Glutting, of South Orange, N. J. Based on the week's showings, Miss Van Wie appeared to have a fair chance of claiming the championship which Helen Hicks, of Long Island, held until an S9 disqualified her on Monday. TVmY'SSPORTS PARADE By HENRY McLEMORE, United Press Staff Correspondent. NEW YORK, Oct, 1.

VP Putting the sports shots here and there Billy Herman just about the best second baseman in the National League this year, has been the goat of the World Series thus far. It was the kid's Insistence on playing out of position that handed the Yanks three hits on silver platters in the second game. And it so happened that those three won the ball game. A few days ago we rated the Cubs' refusal to cut Hornsby in on the World Series swag as the shabbiest trick of the year we were wrong. Since then we have learned that the Cubs voted Mark Koenig only half a share.

and only last Tuesday, as we walked from the Commodore to the Roosevelt, Charlie Grimm told us that it was 3Iark Koenig more than anybody else who brought the pennant to Chicago. No wonder Babe Ruth yelled "chialers!" in the direction of the Chicago dug-out every time he came to bat. The Tony Canzonerl that stopped Lou Kirsch at Queensboro Thursday night could have whipped any man in the world between the poundage of 135 and 145 and that goes for Billy Petrolle, as much as we like the old Fargo Express. was so rough with Kirsch that even Edward G. Little Caesar Robinson, who was at the ringside, turned his head those experts who though the eighth round of the Schmeling-Walker affair a needless slaughter should have seen the New York edition of the Petrolle-Battalino scrap.

That was slaughter. Andy Cohen, once the pride of all Newark, gets a rousing round of boos when he comes the plate these days. Haylbe the fact he's up there swinging for the hated Minneapolis-ers is the reason. Bob Lassate of Yale will be the east's best bet for an all-America berth at the end of the season. If Lassiter, who spent most of his time on the bench last season, wasn't a better back than Albie Booth, we're the Baroness Levi.

Babe Ruth broke down and cried when his teammates up and presented him with a silver humidor before the first game of the series. Columbia's football team will be out for revenge when it meets Lehigh today the last time the two teams met Lehigh won '51-6 that was in 1SS9, 43 years ago. Lou Gehrig and Riggs "Old Hoss" Stephenson are running true to form famed for their work in the "clutches," as baseball men call crucial points in a game, Lou and Riggs are leading the series hitters with five safeties each. What is more important, Stephenson has driven in -four of the eight Chicago runs, and Lou has chased home three. The real name of Miss June O'Dea, who will marry Senor Lefty Gomez, in a week or so, is Schwartz.

The Yankees will win today and the score will be 7 to 4 you're welcome. Ex-Champion Billy Hicks is the best dressed of the women golfers.

Similey. iiOseo-eatlt Jimmy Johnston, From Liverpool, Gaining Fame as Promoter After Two Big Battles. STARTED AS FOUNDRY HAND By WTM.IAM R.BUTHER. NEA Sports Writer. It tias'bron a little more thnn a year since James Joy Johnston, who came to America as an iron-moulder from Liverpool, moved into Tex Bick-ard's old office in Madison Square Garden to become matchmaker.

There was much speculation as to whether the Boy Bandit, as Broadway knows him. would click. But it was TrtKctnn knew definitely Known umi his cauliflower trade and 11 weU-Made 'Em Like It. Fighting is in the doldrums for everybody but Mr. Johnston.

During the year before. Madison Square Gar-. i kn, ihn aea nan irau ui-i" and Yankee Stadium in an effort to corner the market on outdoor flg-hts. The Boy Bandit had gone over to Eb- belts Field and promoted one success after another, including the Camera-Redmond fight that spoiled the night's sleep of 40,000 people. His aeeompr.snments mi the-way ball field brought the millionaires of (Madison Square Garden to his terms, which, by the way, included 10.000 shares of stock.

Laughs at Depression. There is no longer any reasonable Toom for speculation about the Boy Bandit clicking. In the very slough of an economic depression, he prevailed upon the Garden to build an arena at Long Island City for the promotion the Schmeling-Sharkey championship affair. And 70,000 people paid $500,000 for the honor of sitting in on the somewhat disappointing pugilistic christening of the big saucer. He followed right up -with the slam-bang Schmeling-Walker battle which brought nearly $200,000 more into the bos office.

Clicking? Why the old Boy Bandit is clicking like a Big Bertha. Kid From Liverpool. Who is James J. Johnston? He is a British-born citizen, 37 years old, with black hair and pieroing black eyes to match. He is the father of 11 children, the eldest S3 years old.

As a lad of 11 he took steamer from Liverpool. At 14 he was toiling in a foundry for a stipend of something like a day. The Boy Bandit -was a success at the foundry trade, too, raising his status to foremanship at $4 a day before he was 20. He fought a little at 104 pounds. His fight career ended -when they wanted to match him with Terry McGovern at $25 for the evening.

Gypsies and Chinks. So he decided to become a manager, arranging for somebody else to take it on the chin. That he was a great manager you don't have to be told. He had a way of rigging his robots in romantic robes. Gypsy Daniels was no gypsy, but Johnston sent out to a 10-cent store for a bandana and earrings and made Daniels wear 'em.

George Cuneo was one of Mr. Johnston's Chinese fighters, born in Italy, and Johnston sold him to all Chinatown as "Ah Wong, the Canton Killer." He had some great fighters, too. Among these were Harry Greb, Ted "Kid" Lewis and Johnny Dundee. The Big Push. Trying to find a man to fisht Demp-sey he advertised in the New York newspapers for "young men between 18 and 25, to become heavyweight champion of the world experience Some o.OCO replied to the ads, and the Boy Bandit set them to slugging one another in scores of Gotham gyms.

His greatest mistakes have been the turning down of Jess Willard, who wanted to fight for him, and the man agement of Phil Scott. But he even had the folks believing for a time that Scott was somebody. BOWLING AT THE GRAND. Bowling schedule for Merchants Wyae: Monday. October 3.

UP Dale Alexander of the Boston Red Sox won the mythical batting championship of the major leagues for the 1932 season with an average of .367. Final unofficial figures, released today, show that Boston's sturdy first baseman nosed out Jimmy Foxx of the Philadelphia Athletics by three points for the American League honors, and finished one point ahead of Frank "Lefty" O'Doul of Brooklyn, who topped the National batters with .366. However, Foxx had a walk-away for major league home run honors, finishing a sensational campaign with a total of S8 four-haggers, just two less than Babe Ruth's all time record of 00. established in 1927.

(Hank) Day. makes his debut as a college football coach when he sends his Washington and Jefferson football team against West Virsinia Wesleyan here today. Wesleyan comes here with a veteran team but minus the services of the great Gyp Battles, star triple threat halfback.

The quality of W. and J. 1932 team is unknown although Coach Day inherited some fine playing material from Bill Amos when he took up the duties of coach.

K. SMITH days too late. "Man after man was approached, only to have them show the committee a copy of their contract with Franklin. There was just one exception. Dr.

Roller, one of the greatest football players of his day, who had played for Oil City on quite a few occasions and was not approached by Mr. Printz. and he was the only player of note they could get. Oh, what a howl was raised when this committee reported back to Oil City. Meeting after meeting was held and efforts made to get together a team that could hold its own with Franklin.

I was told at the time they had offered Boiler $1,500 if he would get together a team that would beat Franks lin. After being told who we had, he replied, "Make it $15,000 and I couldn't do it. It Just can't be done. If they have the men you claim, not a team in the country will be able to stop them. Then Oil City asked for and received their money back and it was necessary to play a schedule that did not include Oil City for the first time in lo, these many years.

The team played 10 games, scoring 452 points to none for their opponents. They went to Madison Square Garden, New York, where they played for the championship of the world, beating East Orange, T. 12 to and disposing of Watertown, N. by the same score. As shown above, the team was never scored against and only once did their opponents ever cross the center of the field with the ball in their possession.

That trick was turned by Wier, right end for Syracuse University who, on the first triple pass I ever saw, went around our right end for a run that looked good for a touchdown, but was stopped by Jack Hayden on the 33-yard line, after a rnn of 45 yards.

M. VOORHIF1S Sheriff. By WILLIAM Almost from the beginning of time there has been, athletically speaking, great rivalry between Franklin and Oil City. Both towns were filled with dead-game sports, always willing to back their favorites. Only once, during my career as a lover of sports, have I known either town to back down, and it's this tale I am about to unfold, continuing until I have given in detail the work of the greatest football team ever organized, the Franklin world champions of 1903.

For years previous, teams representing the two places in football had been playing a series of games, fortune camping first on the trail of the one and then, like a fickle young lady, switching to the other. Early In the above season, the fans of the two cities got together for the purpose of arranging a series of four games, each team to put up a forfeit of $1,000 to guarantee completing the schedule. In the meantime, Dave Printz, who had been elected manager, had been in communication with a hunch of the best known college players in the country and immediately after thi3 first meeting he hot footed it to the meeting places and had their names placed on the dotted lines, offering enough money inducement to get their signatures without much trouble. I have never been able to learn just what the cost of this great team was, but know that the playing for six weeks cost close to the $10,000 mark, if not more. It was money well spent, however, for enough money was made to let every man go home with his pockets full of the coin of the realm, and still the books of the team -were not "in the red." Now here, for the first time in history, Oil City laid down and played dead.

After the posting of the Dr. Fry, Bill Vann Ausdall and one or two other Oil City sports went after their players. They were just a few Their Concern.
