Saturdays liaine

By Gayle Talbot

BROOKLYN, Oct. 5 -(AP) _. Frank (Spec) Shea, brilliant fresh- man pitcher. and the great Joe DiMaggio combined their talents Saturday to give New York Yank- ees a 2-1 victory over Brooklyn in n"? 111111 Home of the Worldiseries at Ebbets Field and move the Bronx Bombers within one victory of their 11th world champions-hip.

Cookie Lavageito, the Dodger piinchthitter who bounced a game- winning double off the fence in the ninth inning to win Friday's thriller for the Flatbushers. went down swinging for the final out Saturday with the tying run on second base. It was too mucth to expect Cookie to do it, twice in a row.

Yankees To Send Series To Final

Island sport fans had a big week-end ahead of them when baseball, football and boxing ev- ents attracted huge crowds.

t - t

Of outstanding interest was the Wadsworth - McCloskey scheduled i2-round championship for the Canadian middleweight title. The fight drew a record crowd that saw two willing mittslingers trade right and left hand punches all the any. with both leather-push- ers showing an ability to absorb punishment that placed them well in the forefront of the class in which they are fighting.

e . t

The bout ended after 52 seconds of the eighth round when referee Bobby Bcaton of Steliarton, N. S., stepped in to disqualify McCloskey for contixfual low hitting after re- peated earlier warnings.

l i O

It was a disappointing end to an action-filled contest which had the large crowd keyed-up to fever pitch excitement from the open- ing gong. The crowd for the mos: part took the decision of the ref- eree philosophically, but the more arden supporters of McC1oskey strongly protested the action. The fans wose appetite had been whetted by ding-don duels in the preliminaries an semi-final event, was tense for the title scrap to follow. They were not disap. pointed.

The challenger who gave away height to the champion did mus! of the forcing 111 the early rounds and had the crowd on its collect- Ive toes as he aggressively sought to solve Wads\vorth's defence. The tall, tangy champion. however. wielded a right which was always dangerous and had McCioskey. after the first five rounds. crouch- 111g ioiv and wariiy sparring witn his left. It was in the close in- fighting while in a crouch that the challenger drew warnings from the referee for firing low.

O l t

It was just less than a minute in the eighth round of the sched- uled twelve 3-minute round boutl that the referee called finis to! the fray.

one

There was no doubt about it‘ but that referee Bobby Beatons decision was timely. Throughout the sixth and seventh rounds Mc- Closkey had taken the play away from the champion but several of his punches were landing low.

I I O

Terrllicaiiy disappointed after the fight McCioskey nevertheless was still looking for a return bout. Wadsworth himself is reported wiilin! to meet the Maritime middleweight champion again and. not satisfied in the way Saturday nlBhtls bout was ended. was wiii- ing to again stake his title against the slashing’ fists of the challenger.

Carson cooper, ‘Ole Shovel-Shot‘. chief scout of Detroit Red Wings, is being publicly applauded up Detroit way, says Ivan Miller in the Hamilton Spectator, because of his success in uncovering em- bryo N. I-LL. stars for the Red Wings’ organization.

e - o

_In this day and age. when hoc- key scouts are almost to the stage where they're getting advance in- formation frqm the stork, so they can be first in line to sign up prospects. a scours job is out o! this world. It's getting so a guy must have a bit of radar in his maize-up to be able to smell out anything that looks like a hockey player. for the competition is tougher _than a‘ boarding-house steak. ’

“Coop? however. has come up with s flock of rookies. A bunch of them are being dumped into Windsor because the Red Wings are sponsoring the amateur Spit- ' fires. a Junior club in that city and the youngsters must go through the graduating class be- fore they can hope to achieve N. I-LL. rating. ' I O

However, some of the young- sters will fit into minor league clubs controlled by the Detroit organisation. and, out of the 20 or more prospects uncovered by Cooper. the Wings ‘-' get three or four, at least, for the big club. ' ‘

When it was intimated that Jack Adams would retire as coach of the Wings. to become general manager. it was thought a lure thing that cooper would be named to lead the Wi s in place of the rely-poly tut-k. ‘fermerr

Pushing three runs over in the last of the eighth inning after the first man had been retired. Had McInnis' Legionaires Yesterday afternoon captured the City Base- ball League title and the Dr. W.J.P. McMillan ‘trophy, when they de- feated the favored Rover squad 6-5 in a sudden death encounter played at the Victoria Park diamond.

Rovers, on the strength of three sngles and an error, scored two runs in the first half of the first inning only to have the Legion come back wit-h an equal number n‘. tallies in the bottom half of the some inning to tie the count at two-all.

In the-top half of the Second inning a single, a fieider’s choice, damaging infield error, gave the Rovers two additional runs for a 4-2 lead, and in the top of the third Rovers increased it to 5-2 as with the first man retired on strikes. Whitiock reached frst on an error; stealing second, the Rov- ers‘ powenhouse scored as Vernon Larter came through with a double to make the count 5-2.

Lefty MacAleer. pitching superb ball and gOttIng stronger as the game progressed. kept Rover run- ners away from the plate through- out the remaning five innings of the game. whTe his team-mates were accountng for a run in the last half of the fifth.

Bc-th teams went scoreless ‘tn the sixth and seventh, with the Leg‘on coming thrc-uph with it three-run outbreak In the last half o5 the egthlh that meant their vctary.

Strain, the first batter, grounded out to first base; Goodwin singled to put d man on; the next hitter

It was the final score of the half as play raged around the midstripe for the last. five ‘min- utes of play.

Prince of Wales. showing more aggressiveness and at times some smart ball handling. kept the Saints on the defensive for the first half of the second haifitwioe being within l0 yards of a touch- down only to have Saints dribble out of danger on one occasio and have a penalty kick relieve the pressure in the other. .

Playing a kicking game for the first three quarters of the game, Saints suddenly switched to a running attack in the closing stages and the change in ‘tactic: paid dividends.
