of Fat Freddy Fitzimmons Allows Only Four Hits, but Is Beaten When He Fumbles Crosetti's Grounder By Charles P. Ward NEW YORK, Oct. 3 Nobody loves a fat man including Lady Luck. Witness Freddy Fitzsimmons, the rotund right bander who pitches for young Horace Stoneham's baseball corporation, the New Vork Giants. They told Freddy when the current World Series began that nobody could stop the Yankee clouters, with the possible exception of Carl Hubbell, the greatest hurler in baseball.

"Nutz," said fat Freddy Fitzsimmons. Yesterday the Yankees made necessary the revision of the record books when, with their Italian battalion from San Francisco showing the way, they pounded five Giant pitchers as no pitchers ever were pounded in a World Series game. Fat Freddy sat on the Giants' bench and watched with a cold, unbelieving eye as first Hal Schumacher, rAgett Winds Up Victory with 82-Yard Dash; Bachman Squad Proves Superiority i ft By Tod Rockwell i "ANN ARBOR, Oct. 3 It's three in a row for the Spartans of Michigan State 1 A relentless State line that had morale and power, and one that was in perfect harmony with shifty backs, quashed completely all University of Michigan comeback hopes, 21 to 7, in the Stadium here this afternoon. Most impressive was the Spartan third successive triumph over the Wolverines.

State swept aside the highly regarded Wolverine sophomores and the new morale that was supposed to have been at Ann Arbor. The Spartans, after a startling display of speed and deception, power and stamina, spirit and morale, won going away. It was a State parade, so audacious and certain that Michigan was groggy and helpless at the end. The largest crowd that ever witnessed a State-Michigan contest, 55,000 spectators, watched the Spar- 'N 1 r. i'-'-A Vo 'iXy -15 V.4: sXZ Act No.

All spectators were certain that the State men are the best foot ball men. Among them were Frank Gaines, end; Johnny Pingel, quite a young runner and a punter and the best fotball player on the field; Al Agett, left halfback with many, many football virtues. Frankie and Johnny and Al scored the Spartan touchdowns. Michigan's fullback, Cedric Sweet, chalked up the Wolverines lone counter. Frankie got his touchdown in the first couple minutes of play.

It was an end around affair, that all Wolverines know by heart, for 26 yards. Its effect on Michigan was awful at that stage in the game. And then Sweet evened up the count in the final moments of the Fumbles Are Costly It was Sweet's one-yard dash over a Spartan guard that netted the Michigan score. Then Sophomore Pingel cut back through a Wolverine tackle for 12 yards to put State out in front In the third period and the great Agett sewed the game up completely in the final period when he jaunted, un touched, for 82 sensational yards to his touchdown. A couple of Wolverine fumbles and Stato was in scoring position early in the game.

Two plays later and State had a touchdown. It was Brandstatter, fullback, up through center for nine and then Gaines scampered his 26 yards for the score. About the only bitter tlmo of the game followed for State. Spartan penalties, Bob Cooper's returning of punts and the plunging Smithers ana Sweet pushed the ball up to a touchdown pass position. Smith- era tossed and Cooper was to have received.

But in his defensive zeal Fred Ziegcl, State back, interfered with Cooper on the five-yard line. On the third successive plunge Sweet scored. Hopes High at Half Tim Thus the half ended in a 7 to 7 deadlock. Because the young Wol vermes had overcome a lead piled up by the powerful Spartan vet eians, there were many at this stage of the game who opined that Michigan was coming back. But Coach Charles Bachman, of State, had plenty up his sleeve for just such an occasion.

Bachman sent in some sophomores at the be-gining of the second half. There was John Pingel, George Kovacich and Jack Coolidge, all young backs, How they did run! And because they ran behind a Spartan line that outcharged the Wolverines because the State guards were blazing a blocking trail for them far down the field, and because the State sophomores appeared to understand their duties much better than the Michigan men, the East Lansing eleven soon was out In front.

Oct. 3-(A.

Archie San Romani, twenty-four-year-old Kansan, outraced the great Jack Lovelock on the home stretch of Palmer Stadium today to win the fourth running of the Princeton Invitation Mile by eight yards in 4:09 and account for one of the major track surprises of the year. The time was 2.3 seconds slower that the world record set at Princeton In 1934 by Glenn Cunningham but it was one of the fastest outdoor miles ever run and nearly five seconds faster than the blackhaired San Itomani's best previous time. Cunningham, who bad been expected to battle Lovelock, the slender New Zealander, who set a world mark of 3:48.8 while winning the Olympic this year, finished a poor third, 20 yards back. Glen Dawson, of the Tulsa Skelly Club was fourth, another 20 yards back, and the fifth starter, Don Lash, of the University of Indiana, dropped out. San Romani also was ahead at the 1.500-meter post.

He was timed in 3:58.2 at that point, with Lovelock a tenth of a second behind. San Ttomanl took the lead on the west straightaway and both Lovelock and Cunningham followed him past Dawson, the early pace setter.

W.l. I "It can't be done," the people said, after that demonstration of power. "The Yankees are a cinch to win this series. Hubbell may beat them twice, but that would be all the Giants will win. They may not even win that many." "Nuts," said fat Freddy Fitzsimmons.

Freddy Stop 'em But Lonej So today fat Freddy went out to prove the truth of his contention. And 64.8-C2 persons a record crowd for a World Series game jammed the Yankee Stadium to see If he could stop the Yanks or if the Yanks would -knock him groggy with base hits as they did the quivering quintet that faced them Friday. Well, they saw no humiliation of Fat Freddy, for the big righthander whoso chief assets are a knuckle ball, superb fielding skill and one of the stoutest hearts that ever beat under a baseball uniform, stopped them cold. The team that looked so powerful Friday, could get only four hits off Fat Freddy, and one of these was a scratchy affair that should have resulted In a putout. But it didn't, and the Yankees won tho game.

2 to 1. The Yankees won the ball game and went one up on tho Giants in the series, but they did not deserve to win. Their two pitchers, Bump Maaicy and I'at "Whale Meat Malone were pounded for il hits, but the only runner the Giants were able to put across the plate scored on a home run. They left nine men stranded thereby making Fat Freddy fight tho Yanks practically single handed. That Lady Again But deHpite the disparity In the hitting, the Yankees had to call on the girl friend of champions, me green-eyed Lady Luck, to gain their victory.

And the fickle hag enabled them to win, not by means of a home run, their usual method, but by making Fat Freddy, the bent fielding pitcher in baseball, conquer himself just bv his own skill. The break came in the eighth inning and it was no wonder that Fat Freddy sailed his glove awav and let out an indignant snort as he stamped into the Giants' dugout at the end of the Inning. The score was tied at 1-1 when the inning began. Lou Gehrie hit a nome run ott Fat Freddy after Freddy had got him in a hole in the second. He mur dered a curve and sent the ball sailing Into the bleachers In isf right center like a comet to disappear among the excited citi-zens of the Bronx, Harlem, Hoboken and New Rochelle.

"That is the heeinnine of the barrage." said fitzsimmons the fans to each other as the Iron Horse trotted around the sacks with a derisive smile on his fnce. But the way Fat Freddy swaggered ai-cund on the mound told you he via? saying, "Nutz," once more. Fat Freddy went through the inning without further trouble. And he went through the next six, strlkln gout C'tosetU and Laz.cil, two of the members of the dan-gorout Italian triumvirate and three other fellows besides. And Fat Freddy got right back In the ball game when Jimmy Ripple hit one of Bump Hadley's offerings into the right field bleachers in the fifth.

That made the score 1-1 and it remained that way until the eighth began. The Giants made their most menacing gestures in their half of the eighth. Dick Bartell opened with a single, but was forced at second when Bill Terry, one of the best hitters in baseball, laid down a bunt. That cost a run, for Mel Ott singled to center, Terry stopping at second when he saw the Signor, Jon DiMaggio, cock his rifle like arm. It required an infield out to get Terry to third base and that, was as far as he got, for Gus Mancuao ended the inning by flying to Jake Powell.

The 1936 Fighting Irish of Notre Dame, featuring a surprisingly robust running attack, went on parade for the first time today and marched through Carnegie Tech to a sparkling '21-7 triumph, before 35.000 spectators.

The Easterners, with a mixture of veterans and brilliant sophomores, were figured to give the Irish a terrific battle hut. were unable to cope with with the array of powerhouse ball carriers Elmer Layden turned loose against them. The Notre Dame machine had a little trouble getting up a full head of steam, blowing a scoring chance in the first quarter, but once under way, it hit a high penk of efficiency in the second and third periods. Behind a line that operated beautifully on the offense and showed few signs of weakness against the Tartans defensively, Notre Dame's backs jammed through for a touchdown and pounded over two more in the third. Battle Throughout Carnegie Tech, back in the grid-Iron wars under Judge Walter P.

Steffen, was beaten decisively, but fortified with a fine passing attack, made a battle of it all the way. Notre Dame's first touchdown drive started early In the second period when Joe Rcutz. a South Bend boy, intercepted a forward pass on Carnegie Tech 33-yard line. Jack McCarthy tossed one of three successful Notre Dame forwards to Bill Glcason for 133 yards and came right back to run the ball to Tech's nine. Miller burst through the middle of the line for the touchdown.

Joe Bcmor, a sophomore tackle, placckickcd for the point. The Tartans Immediately bounced back. A fumble by Wilke gave Tech the ball on the Irish 4fi-yard mark. Matclan passed to Steve Miklaicic for 19 yards, and a for ward lateral was good for 18 more Captain' Kick Ties It Mat elan dropped bark and fired a bullet-like shot to Carnelly who stood in the corner of the end zone Captain Nestor Henrlon placekickcd to tie the score. Danbom, a 190-pounder from Calumet in Upper Michigan's Cop per Country, which sent Notre Dame its immortal George Gipp, scored the second touchdown on the prize play of the day.

Fat Freddie, pitching his arm off and his heart out. held the cannonading Yankees to four hits while his Giant mates wore hammering Rump Hadley and Pat Malone. for 11 blows, but it was Fitz and his Giants who finally took the Yankee dust, beaten 2 to 1, down the stretch. Before paid admissions, with over 10,000 human pigeons clinging to surrounding roofs and ramparts, the Yankees hiipped through on the decisive game of the Series. This broke the old paid admission record of 1928 by over a thousand souls.

The tremendous mass of humanity saw Fat Freddie put the silencer on Yankee bats the greater part of the route while the Giants were ripping and clawing away at Had-ley's hide for 10 safe hits. The Giants outhlt the Yankees by the wide margin of 11 hits to 4. but at the crucial moment in the eighth inning with the score knotted at 1 and 1, Crosetti's sharp smash through the box bounded away from Fitzsimmons' waiting glove as Jake Powell came across with the big tally of the day.
