THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 3, 1940 PAGE THREE Tigers Roar Into Big Lead In Hectic -Second-Inning Rally 5-Run Splurge in 2nd Puts Detroit Away 'Out 'in Front in First Game. of World Series--Derringer is Shelled From Mound-- Newsom Wins His Start Cincinnati, Oct. 3.--The power- house of 'Detrpit Tigers swi ped on a shocking five-run rally aga! Paul Derringer Wednesday, aps crushed Cincinnati Reds, 7-2, in the first game. of the 1940 world series before a crowd of 31,7€3. The ease with which the Tiger sluggers swept over the National League right-hander with five 'bunched &ingles in the second in- ning took all the sparkle out of the remainder of the game. The crowd was hardly awed by the triple and home-run that Rudy York and Bruce Campbell hit in succession in the fifth inning. Buck Newsom, the giant right- hander, who set the pace for the Tigers in their prowl to the Amer- ican League championship, backed up the hitting of his teammates with an eight-hit pitching job that kept the feeble Reds shut out ex- cept in the fourth and eighth in- nings. In the big second Tigers went to bat as inning ten Derringer Cormick's grounder and scored easily on Goodman's line single. Cincinnati managed to get run- ners on base in all but two of the other frames, but were held help- less just the same as Newsom snuffed out little rays of hope one by one.

TIGERS CELEBRATE Cincinnati, Oct. 3.--The victorious Tigers, from Bob Newsom down, held a sneaking suspicion last night that they have the Indian sign on Cincinnati Reds and will win the sure. Newsom, individually, was the only Tiger brave enough to make the prediction that they might. win four straight. "If we hit as we did today, we | may win it in four straight," said Newsom, "I don't think we'll come back to this ball park after we troit." There was an absence of explosive atmosphere in the Tigers' dressing- | room. They took their victory merely ping and back-slapping was due possibly to the fact that they went through all that when they finally conquered Cleveland for the Ameri. can League championship. Del Baker, Tiger manager, smiling and happy. "Nice going, fellows," he cried. "That's the big one and we want three more." ; "Those old men of mine sertainly did hit, didn't they?'" Baker added. "That's what we've got to do. If we can hit, we can win." There was a silent but firm air of "tomorrow is another day" in the beaten Reds' club house.

With regard to man and his needs, the reports of insect damage are sometimes unusual. For example, a package of biscuits left at a summer cottage at Quyon, Que., during the past season was severely damaged by adult wasps Although the package was enclosed in cellophane, the wasps easily worked their way through it and devoured irregular sections of the biscuits. Recently a beetle (Monochamus) was brought to the office of the Division in Ottawa by a local supply firm which reported that the speci- men in question had damaged a lead conduit cable by gnawing en- tirely through' the . outer lead sheathing of the cable while the cable was wound on the usual wooden drum.
