HAIR - RAISING 5-4 WIN MONDAY BREAK FOR FADING GIANTS Terrymen Will Have Pitching Edge From Now on, to Play in Own Park YANKS ERR STRATEGICALLY Schumacher’s Victory Monday Greatest Exhibition of Courage in Classic New York, Oct. 6.—(7)—Given a lease on life by staggering in with the “hair-raisingest” game of this record- smashing world series, the Giants ‘were in a considerably improved pusi- tion Tuesday as they returned to their own hall yard for the finish, with fat Freddy Fitzsimmons and the great Carl Hubbell on tap for pitching duty. Although still on the brink of elim- ination, with the Yankees out in front three games to two and needing only the clincher to grab the big end of the payoff, the National Leaguers un- coubtedly have a pitching edge from here on, in addition to holding what- ever advantage playing in their own Polo Grounds may be worth. They're throwing Fitzsimmons in victory the weird drama Hal Schu- macher put on Monday to take a cour- ageous 5-4 ten-inning decision. Lefly on Mound Opposing the Giants’ portly knuck- Jer is Lefty (Goofy) Gomez, the crra- tic fireballer, already holder of one decision over the National Leaguers. Yankee batters again, and mates give him enough runs to beat them this time, the whole picture will be changed. : In that event, with the game count @eadlocked at three-all, the stage Would be set for the seventh game, in the Polo Grounds Wednesday, and appearance number three of the great Hubbell. Although he lost Sunday's game to Monte Pearson, Hubbell can’t be regarded as a pushover for any set of batters, and is just as likely to duplicate his opening victory. Highly Improbable If the Giants should achieve what; is still regarded the improbable—pull up to a tie Tuesday and win behind EHubbell’s screwballing Wednesday— they will be the first club since 1925 to accomplish the baseball miracle. ‘The last outfit to come back from a 1-3 deficit in games, and win the last three battles and the title, was the Pittsburgh Pirates, who downed the Washington Senators that way 11 years ago. It was an amazingly wobbly set of , Giants, particularly Schumacher, dmself, who kept the club in the fight before a Monday crowd of 50,024, including former President Herbert Hoover. Although falling far short of the record-shattering mob of 66,669 who turned out Sunday, the series Gate receipts were skyrocketed over the million-dollar mark. Schumacher, knee deep in base diits, errors and bases on balls, con- tributed the greatest show of courage dn the series to date as he pulled out of one tight spot after another. Nears Strikeout Mark Although clubbed solidly for 10 hits, fncluding George Selkirk's second homer of the series, and giving six bases on balls, he atoned for the trem- | endous beating the American League ball killers handed him in the second game by fanning 10—nearing Howard Ehmke’s series high of 13. Two apparent errors in Yankee Strategy, one from the bench and the other on the base-paths, played a| farge part in the Giant win. The first came in the second inning, when “Iron Horse” Gehrig, first up, drove | ® base hit into right field and traveled @li the way to third on Mel Ott’s two- ase muff, one of three errors com- ‘mitted by the Giants. Yanks Bungle yi Dickey, one of the biggest batting . Bisappointments in the series, then rounded along the first base line. Gehrig, instead of holding third or heading for home in a hurry, waited ‘until Schumacher fielded the ball to Mirst before starting for the plate. As @ result, it was no task at all for erry, after putting Dickey out, to fess to Mancuso for a double play ‘The other “bull,” this time from the Yankee dugout, occurred in the finth, after Malone got a surprise Bingle into left field. Malone is a iow motion picture on the bases, and the obvious thing appeared to be for * Manager Joe McCarthy to send in a fen runner.

The Irish mentor, who watched his team give Carnegie a neat 21 to 7 whipping last Saturday, thinks that the blocking of his forwards can be improved. Accordingly, he sent his linemen through a long drill Mon- day on the art of “bowling ‘em over.” He put his backs through a long workout on pass defense, expressing dissatisfaction over Carnegie’s com- pletion of nine out of 18 ae:als, one of which gave the Tartans their seven points. The Irish suffered only one serious casualty blow—Frank Kop- czak, tackle, is in the infirmary with an injured leg. Buckeyes Work Hard Coach Francis Schmidt put his Ohio State Buckeyes through a drill that lasted until dark, concentrating on new plays to be used against Pittsburgh, while Indiana polished up its offense in preparation for Mich- igan’s Wolverines. It was reported that Corby Davis, backfield star, will} not be in shape for action Saturday. At, Michigan, Coach Harry Kipke indicated the fight for regular jobs! is more open than ever as a result of the Wolves’ 21 to 7 defeat by Michi- gan State. One hard scrimmage is planned week before Kipke picks the starters against Indiana. Purdue Meets Wisconsin F; ig Wisconsin Saturday, Pur- due’s Boilermakers started heavy. work in defensive and offensive; scrimmage against freshmen using Badger plays. At Wisconsin, . Coach Harry Stuhldreher sent his charges through a short passing and signal drill. The Badgers lost Allan Mahnke, center, who suffered a severely cut wrist in an automobile accident that} may force him out for the scason. | Coach Ossie Solem juggled his Iowa lineup in a strenuous scrimmage, with Oze Simmons, star back, on the sidelines. Coach Bernie Bierman, who scout-/} ed Nebraska Saturday, worked with; his Minnesota backfield men in prep- aration for the Cornhuskers. The Gopher squad was in good physical shape with the return of Charlie Schultz, hurt in the opener against | the University of Washington.

Morris is scheduled to officiate in |the University of Southern Califor- nia-Stanford game at Palo Alto Oc- tober 24. “The players may feel against Morris,” Masters said, the notion of a ‘strike’ is ridiculous.” He referred to reports the players had notified Coach Claude E. Thornhill they would not agaln accept Morris to do so. Masters announced he was com- municating on the matter with Herb Dane, Pacific Coast Conference foot- ball commissioner, at the suggestion of Dr. Ray Lyman Wilbur, Stanford president. Conference officials here studied motion pictures of a last-minute goal line defense by Weshington State. Three of tie officials, who request- ed their names be withheld, expressed belief the pictures showed that Jake Brigham of Stanford. crossed the Washington line for what would have been a winning touchdown if it had been allowed by Morris. The referee ruled Brigham was stopped short of the line. Morris said at Seattle his decision vas supported by two other officials in the game. He flatly denied the Stanford charge that he «ad advised the Washington State quarterback about plays during the contest.

McLarnin turned the tables on Canzoneri Monday night at Madison Square Garden before a crowd of 11,- 423 cash customers who took time off from the world series arguments to eee the two former titleholders go ten slashing rounds. Last May Tony gave Jimmy a ten-round licking. McLarnin carried off the un- animous decision after left-handing Canzoneri into bloody subjection. Tony survived a three-second knock- down in the second round, when he was flattened by a straight right to the chin. He finished gamely despite gashes around both eyes, his nose and mouth. McLarnin outpointed his rival in every round except the first and tenth, which Tony won, and the fourth, which was even. McLarnin already 1s financially fixed for life, under the guidance of his long-time manager, Pop Foster, but they talked eagerly of the chance to regain the welterweight title from Barney Ross of Chicago. The Garden's energetic promoter, Jimmy Johnson, lost no time starting negotiations for a fourth McLarnin- They waged three outdoor battles for the welterweight crown, splitting two decisions in 1934 and fighting the rubber match in 1935, with Ross the victor. ‘y McLarnin had an eight-pound pull Sports Round-Up By EDDIE BRIETZ New York, Oct. 6.—(7)—Burleigh Grimes, the old pitcher, is the bet- ting favorite to land Cascy Stengel’s job in Brooklyn.
