PAGE TWELVE THE DAILY TIMES-GAZEYTE TUESDAY, OCTOBER 3, 1950 Robin Roberts and Vic Raschi - Most Likely Starting Hurlers For First Game World Series Manager Sawyer Has Faith In His Young Ace and Robin Says He's Ready -- Raschi Is Logical Choice for Yankees, Been Their Best All Season : By JACK HAND * Philadelphia, Oct. 3 (AP)--Young Ran Roberts, Philadelphia Phils' life-saver in the pennant-clincher, probably will be Manager Eddie Sawyer's choice to face New York Yankees' Vic Raschi tomorrow in the World Series opener at Shibe Park. ' Sawyer may decide to go with veteran Ken Heintzelman, his grey- thatched lefty, but most of the "experts" figure Roberts a must. A definite ' announcement was , to be made today, during the Phils' final Jre-suries, workout in this eball-mad city. | ce ny a strong-armed 24-year- old, pitched 10 tiring innings Sun- day. But he worked with only two days rest some eight times during the season. Last week he started Wednesday, Thursday and Sunday, going 22 innings in five days. His last was his, best, a classic job to rank with the mast- ers ih which he beat Brooklyn 4-1 to win the National League pen- i rts works better with two days rest than ke Sos Wi three, Sawyer ' yesterday. sue ape ts oady To Go "I'm ready and I can go, sald B their first 20-game Grover Clevsiand xander in 1917, the youthfu Phils know they hav a stopper. They know they don't need too many runs to win. And they haven't been geting 100 many runs ut it mildly. at a take care of it- self," is Sawyers likely motto in this best-of-seven series against Yankee bosses. Sy nile listened to Scout, George | Earnshaw's report on the Yanks | yesterday in their own locker room while the Yanks limbered up brief- ly at the Yankee Stadium in New York. Earnshaw followed the Yanks through the west on their last western tour. He has an extensive "hook" on each New York hitter itcher. . ad ss of them sare fast-ball hit- ters," Earnshaw told the kids who know little about Joe 'DiMaggio, Yogi Berra and Phil Rizzuto ex- cept what they have read in the S. Pe ust because they wear the Yankee uniforms don't think they are. better than anyone else," Saw- yer told his men, still flushed with the glory of their exciting win over Brooklyn. : Not Overwhelmed : The pla; did not appear over- whe i prospect of playing New York. They rooted for the yanks to win the pennant so they could slice a larger series melon. Now they are confident of victory and hoot at the top-heavy odds favoring New York. Stengel wasted little time in picking Raschi (21-8) for the open- er. He said Allie Reynolds (16-12) will pitch the second game with Ed Lopat (18-8) ready for the third. "Raschi is my man," said Casey. "vic has been my big pitcher all year. He deserves 'the shot." Raschi pulled up with a sore shoulder in Chicago two weeks ago but came back to beat Boston Red Sox in a vital game five days lat- er. He was shelled hard by the Philadelphia A's in his last outing Thursday. The Yanks' right-handed ace definitely will have an edge in experience over Sawyer's choice. Raschi has pitched in four World Series games in 1947 and 1949. Used only in relief in '47, he started two last fall, losing 1-0 to Preacher Roe and winning the last game over Brooklyn, 10-6, although he wasn't there at the finish. He has appeared in three All-Star games. Phillies Stengel spoke with respect of the Phillies, scoffing at the odds. "That's a good ball club over in Philadelphia," he said. "It had to be good to beat a red-hot Brooklyn team in the biggest game of the year for both clubs. "Of course I think well win but they've got some tough pitch- ers. That's the only way they can win--if they get great pitching. I don't think they'll outslug us." The city of Philadelphia, after a riotous welcome home to the Phils Sunday night, has gone on a ticket-steking rampage. Scalpers are reported asking as high as $150 for a pair of tickets with face values of $13 or $17.50. There is no doubt that a bulging capacity crowd of some 34,000 will jam Shibe Park tomorrow long be- fore the 1:00 pam. (EST) starting me. oberts.

Major League Manager Pick Yanks 3-to-1 _y WILL GRIMSLEY New York, Oct. 3 -- (AP)--Base- ball's brain trust -- the Major- League Managers -- today lined up about three to one behind the New York Yankees to win the World Series. But Philadelphia's Phillies found strong support in the National League's 1950 "bridesmaids" Brooklyn's Burt Shotton and Leo Durocher of the New York Giants, who finished second and third, re- spectively, Shotton and Durocher both pre- dicted that the Phillies' tight- squeak finish will provide a psycho- logical lift to propel them past the confident Yankees, "In seven games," said Burt. Eight of the managers, heading for the opening game tomorrow in Philadelphia or relaxing at home, said the New Yorkers have too much sock and savvy for Bob Car- penter's youngsters. Three the Phillies' Eddie Sawyer naturally joining Chotton and Durocher -- picked the Na- tional League champs. Connie Is Neutral Connie Mack, as an American Leaguer and a Philadelphian, deft- ly straddled the fence. "I'm neutral," he said. The four other skippers were in transit somewhere and. not avail- able for comment. They were Eddie Dyer of St. Louis Cardinals, Red Corriden of Chicago White Sox, Frankie Prisch of Chicago Cubs and Red Rolfe of Detroit Tigers. Lou. Boudreau of Cleveland and Zack Taylor of St. Louis Browns said flatly New York would win in five games. Others hedged a bit. Here's how the managers see the series: Zack Taylor, Browns: "I pick the Yankees in five games. They have the best pitching and more power. Sawyer lost a lot of pitching when he lost Curt Simmons." Leo Durocher, Giants: "The Phil- lies are a fighting, hustling pall club and I think if Robin Roberts is not too tired they'll take it. I expect them to bound back." O'Neill Picks Yanks Steve O'Neill, Red Sox: "As to how many games it will go I don't know. The Yankees definitely will win the series." Billy Meyer, pirates: "The Yanks have a big edge but you can't count Sawyer's boys eut. Those kids can siich fire as fast as they cooled Casey Stengel, Yankees: turally we're confident of winning but Philadelphia has sufficiently good pitching and a hustling young club to make it a whale of a series." Connie Mack, Athletics: "I be- Seve AL i be a toss-up. I'm for e American League gh gue and Phillies Billy Southworth, Braves: « Yankees have the edge."

Krause, manager of concessions at Philadelphia's Shibe Park, probably suffered more through the last week of the base- ball season than any rabid Phillies' fans. Krause ordered 40,000 World Series programs printed six weeks ago when the Phillies appeared a cinch. He also ordered 35,000 rolls, an equal number of hot dogs, 18,- 000 cups of ice cream and from 35,000 to 40,000 bottles of soda pop. He really sighed with relief when the Phils won the National League flag at Brooklyn on the last day of the season. On the way to the train station Sunday after beating Brooklyn: 4-1 in the pennant-clinching game, Phillies' Pitcher Russ Meyer sat next to a bus window and asked pedestrians, "How did the Dodgers do today?" When they naturally answered, "They lost," Meyer re- torted, "Ain't that tough." A. Philadelphia used-car sales- man was talking to a prospect and listening to the fina] Phillies- Brooklyn game at the same time. When Dick Sisler hit his pennant- winning homer, the salesman got 80 excited he handed the keys to the car to the prospective custom- er and shouted, "Take it lady, the car is yours" A television manufacturing com- pany offered Mayor Bernard Sam- uels television sets for all Philadel- phia city parks during the series. The mayor accepted for several lo- cations . , . several large depart- ment stores will have batteries of Tv sets placed in their show win- ows , . The Phillies will be cheered on by their wives. The ladies are at- tending the series in a group. And incidentally, the wives will add plenty of glamour to the Shibe Park scene. yThey're a pretty group of fillies. The local papers are busy sign- ing up new writers to cover the series. The Inquirer has Del Ennis and Jim Konstanty penning col- umns on each game of the series. The Bulletin has Manager Eddie Sawyer contributing deft prose on the whys and wherefores of the scrap. Phil Rizzuto is scribbling for the New York Journal Amer- ican. At last reports, Yankee Main- ager Casey Stengel was still avail- able for an offer, Historic Mann Cup Valued at $2,500.00 Once again this year it is east- ern Canada's turn to be the locale for the annual Mann Cup lacrosse championship. The Mann Cup is emblematic of senior lacrosse su- periority and was donated in 1910 by Sir Donald Mann, one of the biulders of the Canadian National Railways. The cup itself is of solid gold and valued at $2,500.00, one of the most valuable in sport. Until 1925 the cup was for ama- teur lacrosse and awarded only on a challenge basis. But in 1925 the Canadian Lacrosse Association was formed and the cup was put up for annual competition, the finals be- ing played one year in the west and the next in the east. - Since that time the west has won the cup seven times and the east 17 times. Last year the Mann Cup was won by the Vancouver Burrards in a series played in British Columbia and the year before by the Hamil- ton Tigers, in a thrilling series at Maple Leaf Gardens, That has been the way the cup has shuffled back and forth since 1942; first the east winning then the west, the location of the games seeming to decide the winner. By that token it is the east's turn to win again this year. The big teams in the east at this writing are Owen Sound Cres- cents and St. Catharines Athletics. Owen Sound led the league all sea- son but St. Kitts are coming on strongly and are favored to be the eastern representatives. The Mann Cup finals will bring another sports first to Toronto. The best of seven series starts at the Gardens Oct. 8, a Sunday. It will mark the first time the Gar- aens will be used for a Sunday la- crosse game, or any kind of a game for that matter.

ONSERVATION ORNER --for 0. .door Sportsmen London, Ont, Oct. 3 -- (CP) -- The Qntario Federation of Anglers and Hunters is going to ask the Ontario Department of Game and Fisheries to seek from United States authorities control of Muskelonge fishing in Lake St. Clair, . Delegates to the third annual con- vention held here during the week- end passed this resolution which will be forwarded through their national executive. The moticn arose from the con- dition that exists in this interna- tional body of water where Ameri- cans can fish muskelonge unhinder- ed by law while for Canadians it is a closed season. Members felt some adjustment of regulations should be made. Harold Franklin of Dunnville was elected chairman. George Mc- Garvin of Chatham was chosen first vice president, John J. Girling of Hamilton second vice president and Walter F. Wilson of Kitchener sec- retary treasurer. The convention also will ask the Fisheries department to abolish family non-resident fishing license. Members argued that no age limit was given on this type of license and any number of Americans could fish in various parts of Can- ada with little chance of any check on their catch. They also asked for more signs in game reserves and regulated hunting areas to protect hunters who/may shoot unknowing- ly in forbidden areas. Members of the executive commit- tee elected were: W. Symington, Hagersville; E, J. Seigner, Strat- ford; W. Peacock, Tobermory; W. W. Lindamond, Guelph; D. A. Mes- sechar, Waterford; Dr. H, W. Cham- berlain, Scotland; Charles Sales, Windsor; N. C.

Columbus Leads Little "Serious" By 2-7 Margin Baltimore, Oct. 3 (AP)--Colum- bus Red Birds are in the driver's seat today with a 2-1 lead in the Little World Series and the Balti- more Orioles out of pitchers. As the series moves into Colum- bus for the remaining games, Oriole Manager Nick Cullop faces a tough decision in naming a starting pitch- er for tonight's fray. Should he put his ace southpaw, Bill Kennedy, on the hill or try to corse back with righthander Tommy Fine, who was clubbed out of last night's game in Baltimore in the first inning? Kennedy, International League all-star lefty, also was cu#ied around by the Red Birds in dropping the series opener Saturday night, 6-1. Cullop used five pitchers in the contest last night in which the | American Association representa- | tives beat the Orioles at their own | home-run game to win 8-5. He even put in big Karl Drews, who | Sunday hurled Beltimore's only | triumph, an 8-1 six-hitter. Harry (The Hat) Walker led the homer parade with a pair while] Larry Miggins and Vern Benson | each socked one for Columbus. Russ Kerns got the only round-tripper for the Orioles, who had moved | through the International League! playoffs on the strength of their long-ball hitting.
