TABOR DAY SETBACK | FORGOTTEN AS THEY PURSUE CARDINALS Still Confident They Can Over- come 81/2 Game Lead St. Louis Holds DIZZY DEAN BEATS BRAVES Giants Maintain Position Blowing Lead, Then Com- ing Through in Tenth by (By the Associated Press) ‘The Pittsburgh Pirates, who have been counted out of the National League pennant race as often as a Britich heavyweight, still must be reckoned with before the flag is awarded. Given a terrific setback by their Labor day double defeat after a 10- game winning streak had begun to arouse hopes for something better than fourth place, the Bucs began a comeback against Brooklyn. Friday they beat the Dodgers 13-0. ‘The Pirates scored in every one of their eight innings at bat while Cy Blanton’ hurled an nine-hit shutout for his 17th victory of the season. Despite this triumph the Bucs re- mained 8% games behind the league leading Cardinals as all three higher- ranking clubs won despite a varied array of difficulties. Stage Late Comeback It took a late combeack behind the expert relief pitching of Dizzy Dean to give St. Louis its third straight vic- tory over the Braves 6-4 and maintain the Cardinal margins of three games over the Giants and 21: games over the Cubs, who remain in third place ‘through a quirk of the percentages. The elder Dean pitched two-hit ball through the last three innings to earn his 24th victory of the season. The Giants, after blowing a five- Tun lead for Hal Schumacher, came through in the tenth with a pair of runs to defeat the Reds 7-5. ‘The Cubs also had to go ten innings to turn back the Phillies 3-2, ‘The St. Louis Browns threatened to abandon their role as cellar champions of the American League when they turned back the Senators twice in the Uay’s only American League games. They won the opener 11-8 and the ven-inning afterpiece 2-1. NATIONAL LEAGUE Pittsburgh—The Pirates got 21 hits as they swamped Brooklyn 13 to 0.

They are marching gingerly toward the Northrup Field gridiron, bronzed and toughened, and fired by hopes of again winning the Big Ten football championship and taking another large slice of national glory. But as they reach Minnesota's training quarters next Tuesday they will find their step slowed by that mournful ditty popularly labeled as the “Bierman Blues.” Minus ranking stars of his great 1934 outfit, Coach Bernie Bierman’s Pessimism is not helped any by re- ports that at least a dozen of his needed replacements are harassed by ineligibility threats. There may be some significance in the fact that while Bierman chants his blues, the folks who do the eheer- ing are clustering about the ticket windows to set a new record in ad- vance purchases. Oakes Grid Prospect Is Viewed as ‘Good’ Oakes, N. D., Sept. 7.—Prospects are viewed as “good” by Coach Nate Cummings whose gridiron warriors will take to the field this fall in newly-purchased equipment. While only three lettermen, Harold Myers, William Deitcher and Donald Willey, returned, there is a group of 18 good prospects to rebuild with, said Cummings. Seeking berths are Harry Boynton, Navin Has $55,000 ~ His Club Wins Flag o__¢ o Detroit, Sept. 7.—(P)—Frank J. Navin h&s $55,000 that says his Detroit Tigers will be in the world series next month, but don’t try to get him to admit that the hustling Bengals have anyhing like a stranglehold on the American League flag. The Tiger club president isn’t willing to bet the $55,000 that his club wins the pennant. But he is “laying that sum on the line,” at the rate of $300 an hour for im- provements to Navin Field neces- sary for the staging of baseball's annual classic. “It's a gamble we have to make, we can't wait any longer,” he said. If the Tigers win the flag (with emphasis on the if) Navin doesn’t care whether they meet St. Louis, New York or Chicago.

BUT TRADITION OF BiG QUARTERBACKS STILL HOLDS TRUE Has 205-Pound Signat Caller to Replace Giants Munjas and Hogan COUNTING ON SOPHOMORES Scotch Mentor Feels Notre Dame Will Be Crucial Test of '35 Season Pittsburgh, Sept. 7.—(#)—If Pitts- burgh has nothing else this year—ex- cept the usual horde of massive foot- ball players and as tough a schedule as there is in the country—the Pan- ther tradition of quarterbacks who look tke overgrown tackles will be maintained. is This year, with only Verne Baxter on one end and Bob Larue at halfback surviving the mighty array that lost only to Minnesota in 1934, the new quarterbacks will be one Arnold Greene, a 205-pound junior from Huntington, Pa., successor to Miller Munjas, and before him Bob Hogan, @ couple of kicking behemoths wha never saw in college the lighter side of 210, Greene is one of the bright lights in a dark world for Dr. Jock Suther- land, the Scotch dental professor who in the past 10 years at Pitt has reeenig teams that won 79 lost 16 and d 8.
