Hubbell-Pearson Duel Due Today : Georgeto ALL GANT HOPS . BASED ON LEFTY Carl Favored to Win, but Yankee Slab Selection Is No Sacrifice, BY BURTON HAWKINS, Staft Correspondent of The Star. EW YORK, October 3.—Upon the lean frame of Carl Hub- bell, whose talented left paw propelled the Giants to the National League pennant and their only world series victory, will rest the burden of prolonging the classic tomorrow in the fourth game of Gotham's subway spectacle. Manager Joe McCarthy is expected to counter with Monte Pearson, youth- ful right-hander, who won 19 games for the Yankees during the regular season. Pearson, who received & back injury during the final week of the campaign, has convinced McCarthy he has recov- ered. Warming up today with Joe Glenn, utility catcher, Monte unveiled his complete assortment of heaves, among which is included the scythe of his mound rival—a screw-ball. Almost every mechanical trick of a pitcher is included in Pearson’s repe:- toire and he is labeled a distinct threat to the Giants’ attempt to even the series, especially with the solid smack- Ihng of the larruping Yankees behind im, Hubbell Is Lone Hope. HUBHELh however, effectively throttled the clout-crazy Yankees in the first game, giving up but one run on seven hits, while fanning eight to win, 6 to 1, despite the fact that the dreary, rainy atmosphere was sup- posed to hamper him considerably. With promises of a clear sky and warm weather, Hubbell, a hot-weather pitcher, will reign a 7-to-5 favorite to squelch the batting power that lurks in the wands of the rampaging Italiai: triumvirate, Joe Di Maggio, Frank Crosetti and Tony Lazzeri, plus the remainder of the Yankee line-up, Which reveals few flaws at bat. Manager Bill Terry now has used every pitcher on his staff with the exception of Clydell (Slick) Castleman, who doubtless will be called into serv. ice Monday, with Red Ruffing, Hub- bell's victim in the first fray, probably resuming for the Yankees. Castlemaa will be a distinct gamble, having failed to generate consistent winning form this season. Only the Yankees' happy faculty of concentrating their hits when they mean runs saved them today as the portly Fred Pitzsimmons was nicked for four hits, the winning one, iron- ically enough, bounding off his glove with two down in the eighth inning. 1t allowed Jake Powell to score from third with the pay-off run. Fitz’s Defeat Bitter Dose. FH‘LSIMMONB' defeat was a bitter dose for the Giants, who now must rely on Hubbell to even matters. Bhould Hubbell win, Terry still wil be in an uncomfortable predicament. ‘With the exception of Fitzsimmons and Hubbell and, of course, the un- tried Castleman, his entire curving corps has been greeted by a barrage ©f Yankee base hits. Hubbell will be used tomorrow and perhaps Castleman on Monday, but you can write your own ticket on who will start for the Giants on Tuesday shoula the series travel six games. Fitzsimmons needs more than two days’ rest, so obviously Tuesday's twirler must be plucked from the well- battered quintuplets of that record- breaking 18-4 burial yesterday, Hal 8chumacher, Al Smith, Gabby Gabler, Dick Coffman and Harry Gumbert. The Yankees' slab situation on the other hand appears particularly rosy to followers of the American League |Gy standard bearers. Pearson is not rated a sacrificial lamb against Hub- bell, while Pat Malone, who performed | creditably in his one inning of action today; Ruffing, Johnny Broaca, John- ny Murphy and Gomez, should the series be extended, will be available for duty. Stadium Help to Giants. THI spacious stadium, most expan- 1% sive ball yard with the exception of right fleld, in the majors, may aid the Giant cause, however. Joe Moore twice pulled down lengthy pokes today while backed up against the left-fleld barrier—smashes that easily would have been home runs in the Polo Grounds. The Giants will not suffer in the same respect simply because the National League representatives do not bang the ball on the magnifi- cent scale of their rivals. Ten of their eleven hits today, for instance, were singles. Burgess Whitehead, Giant second sacker, accounted for one of the snap- piest plays of the series when he raced in to scoop up Dickey's slow roller in the seventh inning, throwing under- handed while off balance to Terry to retire the side. ‘Twinkletoes Selkirk irritated the Giants considerably on first base in the eighth inning before Jake Powell walked to shove him up.

By the Associated Press. . OLUMBUS, Ohio, October 3.— C New York University felt s nine-touchdown sting of the “Scarlet Scourge” today as Ohio State beat the Violets, 60 to 0. A crowd of 72,948, the greatest opening-day attendance in Ohio his- tory, saw Coach Prancis A. Schmidt's Buckeyes run wild. They scored two touchdowns in the first, second and fourth periods and three in the third. “Jumping Joe” Williams and Nick Wasylik, who come from New York University’s own back yard at Astoria, Long Island, led the scoring parade with two touchdowns each. New York's attempt to emulate Ohio’s wide-open and unorthodox style of play back-fired at the start. Strategy Goes Wrong. TAKING the kick-off, the Violets tried a forward pass on their own 21-yard ljpe. McDonald, Ohio full- back, plucked the ball from the air and raced for Ohio's first 6 points & few seconds after play started. From then on it was all Ohio, The | visitors failed to threaten until the last few seconds, when Buckeye sub- stitutes flooded the field. . ‘The Ohioans piled up 14 first downs to 7 for the Violets, completed 11 of 23 passes for 193 yards while the visitors were completing 5 of 17 for 59 yards, and gained 169 yards from rushing while the invaders made 87. On rushing, passing and penalties the Bucks made 410 yards to 191 for the Violets. Line-ups and Summary. 0. N. York U. (0).

Princeton Indicates Another Power House Eleven by Taking Measure of Williams, 27 to 7 By the Associated Press. RINCETON, N. J., October 3.— Princeton’s foot ball team sounded an ominous warning to tuture opponents today as it started off its 1936 campaign with an impressive 27-to-7 victory over Wil- liams before s Palmer Stadium crowd of 40,000. Undefeated since it was beaten by Yale in 1034 the Tiger indicated it has another power house that will be a strong contender for title honors. Its attack worked smoothly, especially when the first-string outfit was on the fleld, and its defense was sound on all occasions except that Williams caught it napping with a forward- lateral play that was turned into & touchdown. Princeton scored in each period, Chick Kaufman, West Haven, Conn., | veteran crossing the line twice and Dean Hill, Bronxville, N. Y., senior, | X and Dick White, Lebanon, N. Y., | Woodros sophomore, each tallying once. Ken Sandbach, a senior, of Maplewood, N. J., kicked three extra points out of | Tapy four tries. Betters 1935 Score. RINCETON, held to a 14-to-7 score last year by Willlams, reg- istered its first points six minutes after the opening whistle. Starting on its own 38-yard line, it marched steadily by line plays to the Williams’ 37. Kaufman cut through tackle for 20 yards, made four on the next play and then went 13 for a touchdown. The second score came early in the second period, with the drive begin- ning this timg at midfield. Bill Lynch, sophomore from Birmingham, Mich., dashed 20 yards; s guard-around play | brought 19 more and White made up ‘Nve | the remainder in two tries.

BY PAUL MICKELSON, Associated Press Sports Writer, EW YORK, October 3.—May- be ihere is a broken heart for every shining light on old Broadway, but the big- gest fellow with the biggest heart- ache of them all tonight was Freddie Fitzsimmons, hard-luck pitcher for the New York Giants. ‘Toppled from the very pinnacle of world series fame by a ball that squirted out of his gloved hand to rob him of a victory he justly de- served, the big fellow had to fight another great battle in the Giant dressing room to keep back the soothing tes “I dunno,” he muttered, “seems like I can't do anything right enough.

Why, I've gone over much farther than and sang as they beat a tattoo on Bump Hadley's back. “What a ball game and what a finish!” shouted Coach Earl Combs. “They can’t stop us now. We club ‘em to death one day and outfoot them the next. Breaks? They got as many as we did with some of their fluke hits. We cashed in with the one we got.” Hadley was so excited and flus- tered he could hardly speak. “I've been in this big show for 10 years now,” he puffed, “and T've pitched against all of them— Ruth and the rest—but I never was as excited as I was today. I Famous Jack Lovelock Bows to “Dark Horse” was jumpy all the way through and I'm glad Malone (Pat Malone) went in there to pitch that last inning. I didn't have a good curve all day.

A‘l’l.AN'K'A1 October 3.—Georgia Tech’s golden-shirted engineers uncovered a measure of their highly publicized “razzle-dazzle” but relied mostly on orthodox passing and run- ning to roll up a 58-to-0 victory over Sewanee before 7,500 fans. ‘The easily maneuvered triumph gave a further boost to hopes of an- other great Golden Tornado team, yet the gamely fighting Sewanee gridders offered little in the way of compari- son despite several flashes of fine play and the excallent performance of Half- back Sonny Montgomery. Georgia Tech crossed the Sewanee goal line in every period, thrice in the second and third frames. Sewanee failed to approach within striking dis- tance, but midway the fourth period Montgomery almost got away as he took a kick-off on his 6-yard line and raced back 63 yards to the En- gineers’ 31. “And Pat” he told Malone, “great work.” Boss Joe, chewing a big wad of gum, cracked jokes as a Yankee trio—Malone and Coaches Filet- cher and Schulte—sang “It Had to Be You” in their best bar room tenor voices. A “ghost writer” finally worked his way into McCarthy's presence. “What'll I say for you tonight?” he asked. “Tell your paper,” said Marse Joe, “that Pearson will pitch to- morrow and tell them to watch the Communists while we watch the Giants.” 7 | march after taking Delaware's open- HOYAS HOLD FOE 10 37-YARD GAIN Victors Get 322 Yards hy Ground Attack—Keating Starts Scoring. | BY BILL DISMER, Jr. EVEN THOUSAND grid fans took a liking to Georgetown's new foot ball team within the first five minutes of its opening game at Grifith Stadium yesterday, and two hours later were wondering it its 39-0 rout of Delaware was sym- bolic of the reincarnation of Hilitop grid fame of former years. With its first team smashing to three touchdowns before being re- ‘moved at the end of the first quarter, and a subsequent mixture of regulars and reserves crossing the enemy goal once each in the second, third and fourth periods, G. U. supporters’ only concern was that the visitors did not offer what might be termed a suffi- clent test. But eveh then, followers of George- town teams rarely had seen a G. U. defense so rigid that the opposition had been unable to fcore a single first down, make no more than 37 yards by rushing nor complete a single forward pass. Vet that was what the Hill- toppers did yesterday to Delaware, whose offense was confined to its own territory except for one instance when it recovered a Georgetown fumble on the Hoyas’ 25-yard line. A lateral on the next play carried Delaware to Georgetown’s 20-yard stripe, but that Wwas the nearest the visitors got to G. U.’s goal all afternoon. Hoya Ground Attack Strong. TH! punch of the game was found, of course, in Georgetown's ground attack which netted 322 yards from scrimmage and rarely was interrupted until the ball had been planted behind Delaware’s goal. With Quarterback Keating, a for- mer Georgetown Prep student, and Bob Ferrara carrying the ball, George- | town gave an inkling of what was to | come in the first few minutes of play | when they led a 65-yard sustained ing kick-off. With the Blue and Gray linemen opening gaping holes, both alternated in carrying the ball to the 8-yard line, from where Keating tore | through right tackle for the first score of the year. Ferrara collaborated by converting from placement. John Frank became the first of the staunch G. U. line to gain individual | notice when he blocked a Delaware punt within the shadow of the vis- itors’ goal a moment later, George- town recovering the crasily-bouncing ball on the 25-yard line. Elmer Mou- lin, an unsung sophomore, who gave definite signs of promise, did his first bit toward the point compilation at this point, when he slung a touch- down pass to Ferrara, who was stand- ing over the goal line. More Georgetown Sooring. MOULIN shortly afterward set the stage for Georgetown's third 6- pointer of the period when his quick kick sailed to Delaware’s 15-yard stripe, where End Bob Snyder drop- ped the visitors' safety man in his tracks. Hammel's return kick sailed only a few yards and, taking the ball on Delaware’s 25, Moulin, Jim Dooley and Charley Wychaunas negotiated the remaining distance in three plays. That 21-0 advantage gave Coach Jack Hagerty a much-desired oppor- tunity to see every man on his squad, but one (who was injured), in action, And while the offense was cut in third in the later three periods, the regular line of Snyder, Clem Stralks, Frank, Harry Hardy, Lew Shuker, Al Vac- caro and John Fleming almost was metched in defense play by their subs. Tony Barabas, brother of a former Barabas, who starred for Georgetown, upheld the honor of the family name in traditional style. He knocked down several long Delaware passes, but un- fortunately, had a beautiful 20-yard end run nullified by holding.

Associated Press Staff Writer. RINCETON, N. J,, October 3.— Archie 8an Romani, 24-year- old Kansan, outraced the great Jack Lovelock on the home stretch of Palmer Stadium today to win the fourth running of the Prince- ton invitation mile by 8 yards in| 4 minutes 9 seconds and account for | one of the major track surprises of the year. The time was 2.3 seconds slower than the world record set here in 1934 by Glenn Curningham, but it was one of the fastest outdoor miles ever run and nearly 5 seconds faster than the black-haired San Romani’s best previous time for the distance. Cunningham, who had been ex- pected to battle Lovelock, the slender New Zealander who set a world mark of 3:488 in winning the Olympic 1,500 meters this year, for first place, finished & poor third, 20 yards to the rear. 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 Ahead at 1,500. SAN ROMANI of Kansas State ‘Teachers’ College also was ahead at the 1,500-meter post. He was timed in 3:53.2 at that point, with Lovelock & tenth of a second behind. Dawson, placed in the pole position, shot into the lead at the starting gun, with Lash, Lovelock, Cunningham and S8an Romani pulling in behind him in that order. Lash, who set a world 2-mile record here in .June, dropped out on the first lap with a pulled muscle. Dawson still was ahead at the quarter-mile mark and at the half, with Lovelock second, San Romant | third and Cunningham in the rear at both points. Dawson ran a 62-second first quarter and was timed at 2:07.2 for the half. 8an Romani, fourth in the Olympic 1,500 meters, took the lead on the west straightaway and both Lovelock and | Cunningham followed him past Daw- son. They were in that order when | they passed the three-quarter pole, where San Romani was timed at 3:12.2. Lovelock Makes Game Bid. THE pace was stepped up as they entered fhe final quarter. San Romani was the first to pull away but | Lovelock. the favorite, was close be- hind. Cunningham, lacking the beau- tiful last-quarter drive which has marked many of his triumphs, gradu- ally dropped behind and never was in position again to threaten the speeding leaders. San Romani and the blond New Zealander poured on more steam as they circled the final turn and Love- lock made a game bid for the lead as they tore down the home straightaway. He pulled up even with about 50 yards to go, but San Romani picked up more speed and stamina from somewhere and pulled away. Lovelock was beaten there and San Romani increased his margin all the way to the tape. San Romani's previous best time for the mile was 4:149. Lovelock, who has a 4:07.6 mile to his credit, was clocked in 4:10.1 today and Cunning- ham was timed at 4:13. The race was run between the halves of the Williams-Princeton foot ball game and was viewed by a crowd of 40,000.
