A KEY PLAY -- Yankees' Elston Howard is nipped at second as Dodgers' second sacker, Dick Tracewski stretches to make the force play, Shortstop Maury Wills made a brilliant stab on Yanks' Clete Boyer, to fire to Tracew- ski in time to get Howard. Action took place in the fifth inning, of the fourth and final game World Series. --(AP Wirephoto) of this year's Dodgers Sweep Series In Four When Koufax Is Again , Magnitic LOS ANGELES (AP) -- The Los Angeles Dodgers' incredible four-game World Series sweep over the New York Yankees could be the start of a new) dynasty and the end of an old one. The world champion Dodgers, loaded with youth, speed, confi- dence, pep and pitching, could rule the National League for years to come. The ability to draw upwards of two million annually in this ever-growing area and their spacious new stadium is bound to pour additional millions of dollars into already bulging treasury and 'enable the front office to pay handsome bonuses to promising youngsters. The humiliating four - game downfall not only is a loss to but is bound to entourage the rest of the Americah League clubs which have acted as puppets on Yankee strings for many, many ears. Sandy Koufax' brilliant work| Sunday in the 2-1 Dodger hay- maker proved again what the Dodgers had shown during the entire Series--that strong pitch- ing can beat good hitting, even such power-hitting teams as the Yankees. SLUGGERS STIFLED The three Dodger starters-- Johnny Podres, Don Drysdale and Koufax, with a one-inning assist from relief ace Ron Perranoski, stifled the Yankee sluggers with only 22 hits, an) average of under six per game.| Koufax, who started the sweep with a 5-2 victory over Whitey the Yankees' pride and prestige Ford in the opener, permitted Pepitone Skowron A Goat! A Hero! Price Of Trade? LOA ANGELES (AP) -- "There's no substitute for ex- perience." Thus commented wise, old Casey Stengel last Wednesday only minutes before the first ball was thrown in Yankee Sta- dium to begin the Los Angeles Dodgers' four-game sweep over the Yanks. | Stengel was comparing Bill (Moose) Skowron, longtime Yankee hero who was traded to the Dodgers during the win- ter to make room for 22-year- old Joe Pepitone at first base. Today, amidst the ashes of the series, the veteran Skow- ron emerges as one of the Dodgers' heroes. Pepitone, wi*h one of the most costly errors in basball history, is the goat. "§.. O-- B---," cursed the slender, likable Italian youth from Brooklyn. "You play gvod all season and then blow the big game. It has to happen to} somebody and I guess it might} as well be me." LIKE MAUSOLEUM | As Pepitone tossed off his/ secks Sunday in the Yankee dréssing room--a place that re-| sembled the main mausoleum) at Forest Lawn in many ways,| he added: "Clete's throw was good. I lost it in the crowd, I just saw! a white spot. It hit my wrist, then forearm and finally my} chest -- everyplace but my) glove." Clet Boyer, going three feet in the air like a graceful bird, made a sensational stop of Jim! Gilliam's hard smash down the} third baseline in the seventh with the score tied 1-1. | Boyer, with one of the surest| arms in baseball made a per-| fect throw. But it sailed past| | Pepitone and rolled toward the stands. By the time Pepitone| retrieved the ball, Gilliam was} on third base on what should) have been an out. Then Willie Davis drove a long fly to Mickey Mantle in| centre. The Mick threw a strike) to home plate but Gilliam could) have crawled the last 20 feet/ and still have scored. MOOSE HIT .385 Skowron, who batted only; .203 during the regular season, } hit .385 for the' series--even' with a hitless day in three! times up in the final game. | He had five hits in 13 times} at bat, including one homer, and drove in three runs. | In the Dodgers' dressing, boom, Skowron's teammates ily sang a parody on Walt Disney's Mousketeers song--but the Dodger version, i fo one of the happier trades the year, was called '"Mickey| Moose." Over in the solemn Yankee dressing room, no one sang-- or even smiled, And Pepitone, curly-haired, handsome and a _ powerfully- buily 185-pounder, grabbed a towel, uttered another curse and then walked to the show- ers, His hand went up to his eye and brushed away a tear. Then he looked sheepishly at his teammates, hoping they hadn't only six hits Sunday and lost his shutout when Mickey Mantle homered in the seventh. The Yankees scored only four|counted the most, That's the| runs in four games. "The Dodgers' great pitching beat us, nothing else," said Yankee Manager Ralph Houk, who accepted the defeat, his first in three World Series, philosophically, "We simply couldn't score enough runs." I've never seen such tre- mendous pitching all around in my. 10 years with the Dodgers," said Los Angeles manager Wal- ter Alston, who also had led Dodger teams to world cham- pionships in 1955 and 1959. BEAT GREAT TEAM "This was the most gratifying victory of all. We beat a great team, one which has been called by some of the greatest Yankee team of them all." The Dodgers didn't exactly knock down any fences them- selves. They had only 25 hits, 'Difference In Take Home Pay About $4,000 LOS ANGELES (AP) --Each winning Los Angeles Dodger may take home about $12,900 and each losing New York Yan- kee cam console himself with about $8,100 from the World Se- ries player pot. Both will be records, No official figures can be re- leased until commissioner Ford Frick's office has checked the figures. That probably won't be finished for several days. Frick's office also comes up with the pay cheques for the players on the second, third, fourth and fifth place clubs, all o: whom probably will receive record slices. The player pool of $1,017,- 546.43 was a record, bypassing the old mark of $893,301.40 for the Dodger-Chicago White Sox series in 1959. When the Dodgers closed out the Yankees im four straight, the club owners and the two leagues missed out on a pos- sible $1,000,000. The players get the lion's share of the money in the first four games, but af- 'or that the money is divided fou: 'vays among the two par- ticipating club owners and the two leagues after taxes and the commissioner's 15 per cent are deducted.

Getaber 7. 1963 a ae Leftwingers Are Big Scorers In | All-Star Gam TORONTO (CP)--Who is the greatest leftwinger in the Na- tional Hockey League? Paste pictures of Frank Ma- hovlich and Bobby Hull on op- posite sides of a coin and flip-- it's that close. \ Mahovlich scored two goals and earned an assist Saturday night to help the defending Stanley Cup champion Toronto Maple Leafs tie the NHL All- Stars 3-3. Hull, strongboy of the! W: Chicago Black Hawks, scored the most spectacular goal of the night. They proved they should share the All-Star left wing spot for quite a few years. And the coming season will be their personal tie-breaker. Hull was the first-team left- winger four years ago, Mahov- lich succeeded him the follow- ing season, Hull won the spot again two years ago and Ma- hovlich was the top man last year. Veteran Eddie Litzenberger scored the other Leaf goal be- fore 14,004 fans at Toronto. Henri Richard of the Mont- real Canadiens and defenceman Ht tg er ar were Star marksmen, a The teams were tied 2-2 after one period and each once in the final period, Stars overcoming three leads.

We never hit much but we won the key games, and got the key hit when we needed it. Ford, who lost the first and fourth games, pitched brilliently ing duel with a 450-foot home run in the fifth inning. The winning run was un- earned. It came in the botiom of the seventh after the Yan- kees had evened the score on Mantle's 15th Series home run, which tied Babe Ruth's record for most homers in Series play. Jim Gilliam opened the Dod- gers' seventh with a_ high bouncer to third. Clete Boyer made a leaping stop and good throw to first but Joe Pepitone let the ball go through him. By the time the first baseman had retrieved the bounding ball, YANKEE 'VOICE' LOST IN NINTH LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Veteran sportscaster Mel Allen, the Voice of the New York Yankees for many years, suffered one of broadcasting's most unfor- tunate fates Sunday. He lost his voice in the tension-packed ninth inning as the Yankees made a fi- nal bid to catch the Dodg- ers. Vin Scully, the Voice of the Dodgers who shared tel- evision duties for the series, noticed. His teammates missed it be- cause most of them were crying| inside. It's easy to cry when} you're out 4,000 or so--the dif-| ference between winning and} losing the World Series. And the Yankees don't lose. often. said Allen "just lost his voice and we figured he'd better rest his throat for perhaps an inning." "It was just a laryngitis attack," said Tom Gallery, NBC sports director. Gilliam was on third. He scored on Willie Davis' sacrifice fly to Mantle in deep right centre, "T lost the ball in the sun and in the white shirts of the grandstands," Pepitone said in disgust. 'It hit my wrist, then my forearm, then my chest, All I could see was shirts." Pep's misplay was the only Yankee error of the Series. "It was not bad defensive play that cost us the Series," said Houk, "It was good pitch- ing by the Dodgers. No team can win without scoring runs." It marked the, first time « National League team had been able to sweep the Yankees in four straight. The New York Giants of 1922 beat the Yankees in four but. there was a 3-3 tie during the Series, Koufax, the Series hero with two victories, fanned eight Sun- day to boost his two-game total |23, a record for a Series of |seven games or less, A Message From Oshawa's Fire Chief...
