THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 4, 1940 | PAGE THREE: Cincinnati Reds Climb Back Into World Series Running hy Winning From "Schoolboy" Rowe Bucky Walters Walks First Two Batters and Gives Up 2 Runs in First In- ning But Then Holds Reds Under Control TIGERS' RELIEF HURLER SHINES Victory Puts Reds Right Back in Running and Leaves "Experts" Guess- ing at Results of Detroit Games Crosley Field, Cincinnati, Oct. 4-- Cincinnati's rebellious Reds, who were counted out Wednesday, were counted balk into the 1940 world series yesterday with a 5-3 triumpn over Detroit Tigers on the supero three-hit hurling of "Lucky Bucky" Walters. The warm, happy, Cincinnati fans, 30,640 of them, cheered their her- oes' every move as the willowy right-hander redeemed a wild start and his supposedly weak-hitting team-mates raided Schoolboy Rowe for all their runs in the first four innings. The itde of battle turned a com- pléte somersault as Walters, after walking the first two men he faced and giving up two runs in the first inning, settled down to retire the Tigers in order in five of the re- maining eight frames. The only hits he gave up were a single to Charley Gehringer in the first, a double to Pinky Higgins in the fifth, and another two-bagger to Hank Greenberg in the sixth. In contrast, the Reds pelted Rowe, who lost three games and won six- teen during the regular campaign, for all their runs and eight of their nine hits before he was relieved by Rookie John Gorsica with one out in the fourth. The Reds were set down in suc- cession in the first, but bunched BUCKY WALTERS four singles in the second, a single and a home run by Jim Ripple in the third, and successive doubles in the fourth. Gorsica, a right-hander who had been expected to be held in reserve as a starter for the fourth game, allowed only one scratch single in the eighth inning, and let no other runners reach first base in the four and two-thirds innings he worked. But his matchless performance came too late. First for Nats Since 1937 The National League champions, who pulled Walters out of his open- ing jam-with a minimum of damage by means of a fast double play, put up. a tight defense thereafter and never were in danger of being over- ' taken. It was the first time that a club representing the senior circuit in baszball"s big autumn classic won a game from the American League since the New York Giants took the fourth game of the 1937 series from the Yankecs. These seme Yankees last year belted Bucky for nine hits and mcpped up the Reds easily in the seccnd session of their series. His fast, low pitching was thoughu to be considerably to the liking of the hylking sluggers of the American League. ' But Thursday his only fault was thet first unfathomable wildness. His very first pitch sailed past Catcher Jimmy Wilson like a shot, and he passed the first two batters, Dick Bartell and Barney McCoskey, on ten pitches. Then Gehringer smacked a single far into fizhtfield to score Bartell, and young Gene Thompson went (Advertisement) Oshawa Boy Shines at Home --Dad Gladly Pays You've got to take your hat off to this boy He'll go places. Why? Because already he knows what it means to make and save money. He likes to earn his weekly allowance and he planned the way to do it--Yes sir---made a gentle= man's agreement with Dad that nets him his pocket money every week, How? He keeps Dad's shoes spic and span -- every day with a touch of Nugget Shoe Polish and a brisk rub-up. They're & great team Billy and Dad. And both agree that Nugget is a grand shoe polish! - into action in the Reds' bull pen. But before he could get ready Bill Werber grabbed Greenberg's groun- der for a double play, on which Mc- Cosky scored, and Walters found himself to strike out bulging Rudy York on four pitches. Hank Belts a Couple From {hat point on, Walters never gave the fans or his team- mates a worry. He pitched carefully to the biggest guns of the Tigers, working the corners and keeping the ball low when he came in with his fast one. Though he walked Greenberg in the sixth, it was be- cause he preferred making them look at ban pitches rather than hit a good one. He struck out four batters, includ- ing York again in the ninth, and the two Detroit pitchers. The run Walters allowed in the sixth started by walking McCosky, who was forced at second by Geh- ringer in what was almost a double play. Then Greenberg looked over five corner-cutters to a count of 3-2 and belted the fast one for a double that rolled right up against the big black scoreboard in left centre, some 380 feet from the plate. Gehringer scored from first. Big Hank also hit a tremendous fly to the same spot to lead off the ninth. But in general, Detroit's mighty bats were muffled to virtual silence and except for three hits, only seven balls went to the out- field. World Series Facts, Figures THE STANDING Detroit (AL.

Packing welterweight poundage for the first time in his 2'2-year | reign, Armstrong rules a one-sided favorite to dispose of the bid of the youngest to five Pittsburgh brothers who have been in the business for | years. Having learned regretfully in Henry's knockout of Lightweight Champion Lew Jenkins some weeks back that it doesn't pay to. gO | against the little negro in any tight, | this corner strings along with | Hennery to take care of the situs. tion. We pick Armstrong to stop Fearless Fritzie 'n about the tenth round of the scheduled 15-round route. i ------ FEEDER CATTLE SITUATION The confidence of cattle feeders in the future market situation is fairly well demonstrated by the fact that purchases of stocker and feeder cattle on the Toronto stock yards for shipment to the country for fur- ther finishing totalled over 35,000 head for the first 36 weeks of this year, as compared with 23,000 head in the corresponding period of 1939, The same condition holds true in the case of the Winnipeg. stock yards, where shipments to the coun- try were increased from 19,000 head in the first 36 weeks of 1939 to 28,- 000 in the corresponding period of 1940. This situation also applies to other stock yards in the West, the total inward movement to feedlots in Canada for the period mentioned accounting for 89,000 cattle, as against 64,000 in 1939. In 1939 motion picture houses in Canada were patronized by 138,497,- 043 persons, who paid ga total of $34,010,115 for general admission, ex- clusive of amusement taxes. Steel ingot production in Canada during the eight months ended August totalled 1251942 tons against 783,509 tons in the corre- sponding period of 1939, and Tebbetts; | - | time of the two protests and Formerly luxurious privately-owned yachts, HM.C. S. Reindeer, TOP, and H.M.C.S. Husky, BOTTOM, have been completely reconstructed and converted into anti- submarine patrol vessels for duty along the Canadian coasts, from Canada. AND NEWS ALONG THE LAKE FRONT The fourth race of the "C" series, over which so much d sion has arisen, and whic! have been settled last "protest court", will be Sunday afternoon immediately after the "frost bite" race is finished. Judges Disagree The three skippers, with their crews, involved, were: Floyd Med- land with Eric Patterson as crew Howard, Kane with Gordon Loft- house, and Tom Monaghan with Pa Wiley as crew. Each skipper stated the positions of the boats at the the manoeuvres leading up to them. The crews were also asked to state thei: version. Finally the skippers were called back to defend their pre- vious statements and to be quest foned. Toy boats were used to depict | the approximate distances between boats and buoys in the actual race The judges, J. W. McClellan, vice- | commodore of power; R. L. Scho- field, rear commodore of sail, and E Sharp, vice commodore of sailing withdrew to arrive at a decision in regard to the two protests. After de- liberating half an hour, they return. ed and Spokesman McClellan stated that the judges could not come to an unanimous decision. Their re- commendation was, looking at tae | case from a sporting angle and also as the winner of the Kinloch tro- | phy was at stake, that the race be re-sailed, the date to be fixed by | the chairman of the sailing com- mittee, R. L. Schofield. Continue Navigation Course Decision was made last night a! | the regular monthly meeting, to] continue the course in navigation, | commenced last winter under the instruction of Dr. Edwin Smith, ! Lieutenant R.C.N.V.R. 1916-19. Var- ied opinion arose as to the length of the course and what the syllabus | should comprise. Many felt the | course should be lengthened to fif- teen weeks over last year's ten. The | matter of fees, which will be higher | this year if Dr. Smith continues to be the instructor, also entered into | the discussion. A committee consist- | ing of Earl Sharp, Harry Huff and | Ernie Broome was appointed to thoroughly investigate the circum- stances and to bring in a complete | report at meeting specially called for October 17 at which those inter- ested in the course will attend. It is | expected that the first lecture will | be given the first week in Novem- | ber. It is anticipated that an ad- vanced course will be given to those | who tried = the examinations last spring. Several of the members are hoping that the course in navigation will prove of benefit to them when they are called to the Canadian Navy for active service. Talbot Treasurer Pro Tem Allan G. Talbot was appointed treasurer for the balance of the year to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Wm. O.

' Warm Garments Needed A final paragraph in the Red Shield newsletter reads as follows: "Winter will soon be upon us and warm garments of all kinds will be urgently required for the boys over= seas as well as those in Iceland. We must all do our part in this great work! We are also appealing for blankets and warm clothing of 'all descriptions for the evacuees. The distress and want in England on ac- count of the bombing creates a need for renewed effort in this connec- tion and we are depending upon our comrades all over the territory com- ing to our assistance. Mrs, General Carpenter writes full of appreciation of the wonderful clothing which has already reached the Old Land from Canada and she hopes we can cone tinue our efforts during these dis- tressing days."
