The “four-out” inning which enabled the New Yorks to win a 7-4 victory over the hard-luck Bums was the only subject of conversation in Flatbush today, and it would take a Dodger Sweep of the series to displace that final play as an item for table talk.

Police Interfere With the Dodgers leading by a score of 4-3 in the first-half of the ninth, Henrich came to the plate with two out and fanned. On the third strike, the Brook- lyn fans came rushing out of the stands and the police swarmed around the plate to protect the Dodgers from their wild admir- ers. But the game wasn’t over. Owen had dropped Casey’s pitch, and as he scrambled through the ranks of the police after the ball, Henrich galloped to first in safe- ty. Joe DiMaggio, who shauldn't| haye been able to take another cut at a baseball until today,! dingled- sharply to left, advancing Henrich to third and providing fieq a real threat out of what the/ Brooklyns had looked upon as a} comic ending of their second vietory of the series. Again Casey worked his way to two strikes, this time against Charley Keller, and then Keller drove a long double against the right field fence, scoring both Henrich and DiMaggio. Casey walked Bill Dickey, blew two strikes past Joe Gordon, and then saw another of his offerings sail out to the fence for a dou- ble, bringing in two more runs. That was as far as the Yankees 1 WORLD CHAMPIONS (Continued from Page One) I Third Inning YANKEES — Rolfe walked | Henrich flied out to center. Di-! Maggio went down swinging and | first. Tors.
