LOLLAR OUT RUNNING, L.A. WINS DETROIT FREE PRESS Saturday. Oct. 3. 1959 1 Go-G own to Sox 4 They now are tied at one victory with the come-from-behind Dodgers, who spotted them two cheap first-inning runs, bombarded them with three homers two by inf ielder Charlie Neal and then delightedly saw the Chicagoans kill their own rally.

The rally-killer came in the eighth with a ridiculous display of over-enthusiasm for the speed of slow-footed Sherman Lollar. The Sox trailed, 4-2, in the eighth following a three-run seventh-inning outburst by the Dodgers on a pinch-hit homer by Chuck Essegian plus Neal's second blast of the game, a two-run job deep into the centerfield bullpen. BY LYAIX SMITH Fre Press Sports Editor CHICAGO If you hear something often enough, you believe it. That's the way it was with the White Sox. All year as they successfully pursued the pennant, they were called the "Go-Go Sox." It was a tribute to their fleet-footed tactics on the bases and in the field.

They had reason to accept it as a truth. But it backfired on them here Friday as they lost the second game of the World Series, 4-3, and now head for sunny Los Angeles, where the next three games will be played in an unhappy mood. f- With Larry Sherry, reliefer to winner Johnny Podres on the mound, big Ted Kluszewski lined a single to center. Lollar followed with a scorcher that bounced away from third baseman Jim Gilliam for an infield hit. Manager Al Lopez then sent in agile Earl Torgeson to run for the ponderous Kluszewski at second.

But he neglected to put in speedier feet for Lollar, definitely no gazelle, who was on first base. Outfielder Al Smith promptly delivered a line-drive double to the leftf'eld fence. Torgeson coasted home in a breeze. Lollar came into third, was given the go-ahcad sign by coach Tony Cuccinello. and lumbered for home with the tying run.

But Lollar was a dead-duck jas the relay from Wally Moon (to Maury Wills to the catcher icut him down with yardage to 'spare. It was not even close lenough for Lollar to bother to slide. MSU, Still Big At Gate 100,000 Watch State Rivals THERE WAS no excuse for sending him in. A faster runner might have made it. He definitely would've made it closer.

So instead of trailing by one run with runners on third and second with nobody out. the Sox had one out and Smith on third.

The sophomore look will be prominent on both sides. Michigan State has 14 on a road squad of 38, and the Wolverines have 16 on their first three teams, seven of them on the injury and i that was Kentucky in this a third-period arm never returned.

I think you'll see two clubs playing normal baseball. Seldom have two World Series contenders been forced to limit their resources in the final days of the season. We clinched it in our 15lst game with only three left. The Dodgers had to go two extra games after the scheduled 154 to beat out the Braves. SO WE BOTH were under terrific strain.

I'm sure both teams will settle down into their true pattern from now on that you'll be seeing some of the most stilling action in World Series history. Boh Shaw pitched a real good game and we had hopes he would give us a "J-0 lead going into Los Angeles. He Is a hear-dpwn athlete and he felt badly after losing. Bob knew that Charley Neal is a high-ball hitter. Both of his pitches came into that range.

With control of the line play, the visitors tried only eight passes and these mostly out of curiosity. The passes netted only 51 yards while 64 runs Titan football dreams. The 47,368 fans felt right at home with the score that tight that's the kind of games the Sox had been in all season. But they squirmed uneasily when, with two outs in the seventh Essegian stepped up to hit for Podres, the pitcher. The reserve outfielder, possessor of just one.

Detroit was not in Kentucky's league on this night and there was little reason to believe it would be otherwise in IT ISN'T really polite to mention that U-D had one of the best rushing defense records in the nation. Only 61 yards were yielded on the ground in the two earlier games.

While Kentucky was piling up its total of 395 yards and 21 first downs, Detroit managed just 14 yards. There was not an inch of profit from passes and 51 of the rushing yards came on Maher's TD ef HUGHES HATCHER-HARRY SUFFRIN FABULOUS CONSOLIDATION SALE! i second unit. MOST PROMINENT among them perhaps is Michigan's Ben-nie McRae. Elliott isn't starting him, but McRae scored both touchdowns in last Saturday's 20-15 loss to Missouri.

The Wildcats, who had lost both previous starts to nationally ranked teams by small margins, used straight power and not much else in rolling across five touchdowns. There might have been more if the Wildcats actually have a better pass attack than re sissippi in its first two, which says plenty for the latter two outfits.

The witnesses at U-D Stadium could best compare this with the opening game, only in reverse. The Titans roamed at will over George Washington, 38-6, and this was the same sort of story told the other way. ONCE THE Wildcats found that they could gain consistently on the ground. and this news arrived very quickly. they showed interest in little else.

Saturday's prime Big Ten game sends Northwestern to Iowa in a clash that should produce one of the title favorites. Indiana also goes after a second league victory at Minnesota.

Other games have Notre Dame at Purdue, Marquette at Wisconsin, and Army at Illinois. Kentucky had two TDs before Detroit earned even a first down. Kentucky had all five TDs before Bruce Maher's spectacular fourth period run for the lone Titan marker. It was sorrowful viewing for 20,460 fans, the largest home crowd in five years end the second largest in the last 10 years. There may be more weeping later.

Count yo'jrse't in en them row CHICAGO IN A SERIES WHERE THE PITCHING was expected to be a strong point for both teams, and in Comiskey Park where a home run must travel at least 352 feet to reach the seats, the home run suddenly became a dominant factor. Only three players have hit any but they have collected five. Ted Kluszewski belted two into the right-field seats in the 11-0 opener for the Sox as he drove in five runs. And then Charlie Neal, Dodger second baseman, got into the act in Los Angeles 4-3 triumph here Friday as he hit two one to left and the other into the deep-center-field bullpen.

That put both men into an elite class. Onlv two other players Tony Lazzeri and Bill Dickey, both Yankees ever hit two homers in one series game. The fifth was the contribution of Chuck Essegian, who became the seventh man to hit a pinch homer in Series competition. No two players are more different in physical style than Kluszewski and Neal. Big Ted is a gigantic guy with such muscular arms that when Dizzy Dean was broadcasting one day, he took a look at Ted coming to bat and had this to say: "There's something wrong, folks.

Here comes a man up to the plate and he has his legs sticking out of his shirt sleeves." Klu's arms are awesome things. They look like miniature telephone poles with muscles. Neal is a lean 170, as compared to Ted's 230. He has a quick snap of the bat and he speaks with authority at the plate. WHEN NEAL'S FIRST HOMER broke the ice for Los Angeles in the fifth inning after two were out, it marked the end of a scoring drouth for the Dodgers that extended through 22 2 consecutive Series innings, dating back to the seventh game of the 1956 classic against the Yankees.

They ere blanked in that one, were held to nine goose-eggs here Thursday by Early Wynn and were hurting until they finally got to Bob Shaw for their victory Friday. Johnny Podres, the winner, is a man of distinction for the Dodgers. He is the only man to win three Series games in that uniform although the Dodgers now are in their 10th classic and have played a total of 59 games.
