Reynolds and Black By GAYLE TALBOT NEW YORK (P)—The pitchless wonders of Brooklyn have put it squarely up to their wonderful rookie reliever, Joe Black, to get them off on the right foot against the favored Yankees in the world series opener tomorrow at Ebbets field. Never before in big league history has a manager been forced to take such a desperate gamble. Other rookies have been called upon in the important first game, and there have been bullpen specialists before. But the combination of the two, out there trying to turn back the Bombers before the eyes of the nation will be unprecedented. Manager Chuck Dressen took a calculated risk when he nominated the '28-year-old Negro freshman to duel with the Yanks' mighty Allie Reynolds, as great a money pitcher as there is in the game today. Plays It Bold He could have held his relief ace lack and been assured of late-inning insurance as long as the big playoff lasts. He chose to play it bold to stake his hopes of a world championship on one throw of the cubes. If Black, an unperturable control specialist, pitches up to his brilliant form of the regular campaign, he will give Reynolds a mighty battle tomorrow. If he turns back the Yankees, the '8-to-5 odds in favor of the American leaguers will take an abrupt dip and it could turn out to be a riproaring World Series. Should the gamble fail and Black take a shellacking, the National leaguers are in bad trouble, stripped temporarily of the relief pitching which held their shaky mound staff together all season. The rookie phenom appeared in 56 games, and though he was credited with only 15 victories, his contributions easily ensured those of Gazet Mol Meyers Trailers (3)—Ed Robinson 429, Chet Borgstrom 291, Fred Nadon 462, C.

LOS ANGELES (UP)—Southern California's Trojans could reel off a string of injured players today but Coach Jess Hill said he believed most of them would be ready to engage Army in Memorial Coliseum Saturday. Halfbacks Jim Sears and Al Carmichael were included in the list bruised up in the Trojans' triumph over Northwestern. They should be ready, said Hill and so will Addison Hawthorne, who has yet to play this season. Hill said Hawthorne will be used primarily at fullback. NEW YORK (UP)—The Wood Memorial, major eastern prep for the Kentucky Derby, will be doubled in value from $50,000 to $100,-000 next spring, directors of Jamica race track announced today. Michigan State Places First in Football Poll NEW YORK (UP)—Resourceful Michigan State was a solid choice as the No.1 college football teams in the country today in The Associated Press first weekly poll. Sports writers and broadcasters, who in a pre-season sampling of opinion named the Spartans as the best bet to win the national championship, apparently were further convinced by State's 27-13 comeback victory over Michigan last Saturday. They gave the Spartans 52 of the $3 first place votes cast and an impressive total of 752 points, nearly twice that of the No.2 team, Illinois. Point totals are arrived at by awarding 10 for a first place vote, nine-for second, etc. No other team got more than seven No.1 votes, this number going to Maryland's Sugar Bowl championships. California lost one of its finest anglers and sportsmen in the passing of Jack B. Schneider of San Jose recently in Montana. Jack died of a heart attack at the end of a wonderful summer of fishing and photographing wildlife in the west Yellowstone area. He had planned to finish his work there and return to California in a few days when he was stricken. Sharp Tongue A little man, with a sharp tongue that covered a great big heart, Jack was a pilot during the last world war and there developed the condition which finally caused his death. But he had the kind of courage that never let him quit and he died just as he set up his motion picture outfit to photograph an exceptional bird scene he had discovered. Both Jack and his wife, Tillie, were excellent photographers and the colored slides they made delighted friends and audiences for years. This year Jack had planned a colored movie which would show trout fishing at its best in the Yellowstone country. Watched by Wardens Jack was an excellent fisherman, both for trout and black bass. In fact, a year or so ago at Wade lake, game wardens watched him to see if he was using some illegal tackie; he caught too many big trout—most of which were returned to the water. He rated the equal of any fisherman in the nation with a bass bug or popper. He was one of the finest accuracy tournament casters in the nation, and a good fly tier, developing the now famous "Fledermouse" trout fly and the "Tuleclimber series of weedless bass bugs." San Francisco two years ago. Jack won the professional dry fly accuracy title with a perfect 100 that year and cast a 99 in the wet fly event to take the professional accuracy championship. But, he had time from his own efforts to watch a junior caster who showed promise. Jack invited him home and gave him lessons. The boy returned later and again this summer. Then he went to the national tournament in Peoria, and came home a champion of champions. Helped Hundreds The boy was Freddie Mathis of Pasadena, who set a new world record by casting perfect scores in both wet and dry fly competitions. But there are hundreds of others, not so proficient as Freddie, who Jack taught to cast and helped with their fishing problems. Because he was a veteran himself and knew their feelings, Jack never turned down an invitation to help entertain wounded and disabled service men, devoting many evenings each winter to casting exhibitions and to lectures with colored slides at the various armied service hospitals in the bay area. Jack's personal friends and angling companions are scattered over the nation. They include the angling greats, and a lot of dubs like me. All of us, and the sport of angling, have lost a friend. They gave the Spartans 52 of the 83 first place votes cast and an impressive total of 752 points, nearly twice that of the No. 2 team, Illinois. Point totals are arrived at by awarding 10 for a first place vote, nine for second, etc. No other team got more than seven No. 1 votes, this number going to Maryland's Sugar Bowl champions, who gained third place on close-squeak triumphs over Missouri and Auburn. California was named fourth, without a single first-place vote but with strong runnerup support, and Texas, winner over Louisiana State and North Carolina, was fifth with only five votes for top. Completing the top 10, in order, were Georgia Tech, Southern California, Wisconsin, Kansas and Duke. It is interesting that, in addition to Michigan State on top of the pile, five other teams picked in the pre-season poll pulled down places on the first weekly show of strength. These were Maryland, Georgia Tech, Illinois, Wisconsin and California. The top 10 in The Associated Press' first football poll, points based on 10 for first, nine for second, etc., with first-place votes in parentheses: 1. Michigan State (52) 752 2. Illinois (4) 435 3.

Oklahoma 35 LOS ANGELES (P)-Tailback Paul Cameron still is a question mark for outstanding duty on the UCLA football team as the Bruins get down to hard work for the clash with Washington at Seattle Saturday. Cameron still favors a sprained right ankle and may see only limited action. Ready Teddy Narleski, who has been shouldering the tailback duties in the Bruins' two wins, is fit and ready to roll, however, according to Coach Red Sanders. NEW YORK (P)-With Joe Black named to open the World Series for Brooklyn, the Cuban Winter league can take a bow for its contribution to baseball. "Look at the pitching that came out of that league last winter," said Billy Herman, a Brooklyn coach today. "Black was 15-4. Heyt Wilhelm of the Giants was 15-3. Eddie Tulah of the Cardinals was 12-2. And Johnny Rutherford of the Dodgers was 7-7." Jack's personal friends and angling companions are scattered over the nation. They include the angling greats, and a lot of dubs like me. All of us, and the sport of angling, have lost a friend. MICKY MANTLE (Outstanding Player) SPORTS MIRROR By The Associated Press TODAY A YEAR AGO-Jackie Robinson hit a 14th-inning homer for the Brooklyn Dodgers to beat the Phillies and maintain the National league tie, forcing a post-season playoff with the Giants. FIVE YEARS AGO - The Yankis took the first game of the World Series from the St. Louis Cardinals, 7-4, as Spud Chandler and Red Buffalo combined to hold the Cards to seven hits. TWENTY YEARS AGO-Virginia Van Winkle and Glenn Collett Vage entered finals of the Women's golf championship. and Black Will Meet in Series Opened Mental Lift agle which Dressen untook into serious considhanding Black the blazwas the mental lift to from winning the openuld the rookie win over the Yankees' best, other owed members of the taff might easily be inpitch slightly above their ight in the ensuing games. no surprise that Dressen carl Erskine, a 14-6 perfer the year, to face big hi, 16-6, in Thursday's game at Ebbets Field, nor nominated Preacher Roe, an southpaw, to match shots with Ed Lopat in contest at Yankee stadiment. Both Rested Both teams were rested and in robust health. The only question was whether Gene Woodling, the Yanks' leading clubber, would be ready to start the opener and hit in the cleanup spot. He has had a pain in his groin lately, but said it felt much improved. If Gene decides to sit it out, Stengel will have to move catcher Yogi Berra up from fifth to fourth in his batting order. Finished Strong Over the season, Erskine was a rather uncertain quantity, as were most of his mound majes, and for a spell he was plagued by a sore arm. But he came strongly toward the end of the race and turned in a number of tightly pitched victories when the Dodgers needed them the most. While Roe posted an impressive-looking 11-2 record, this was not one of his better years. For long stretches he could not finish a game, but now and then he found all his old stuff, plus control, and produced a brilliant effort. He like Lopat, depends heavily upon his outfielders to roam far and wide to haul down the long files. For that reason both will be held out for the great open spaces at the stadium, where homers are not easily come by unless the ball is pulled sharply. There was never any doubt that Casey Stengel would throw his big three at the Brooks in fast succession, and little question that Reynolds, his only 20-game winner, would be out there firing bullets in the opener. The Oklahoma Indian never looked greater than in his recent appearance while the Yankees were clinching their fourth straight flag against Cleveland's determined strut run. Trouble-Shooter The old professor said duthe Yankees' workout yesterday so that he might, if an emergarose, bring him back in the field game. Also, Reynolds will be able for relief duty, though Sgel nominated Johnny Sain as his No. 1 trouble-shooter and premier right handed pinch-hitter—quite a distinction for a fille who was waived out of the national league last year. The two standard bearers scheduled to take their final winnings today at the stadium. Dodgers, returning a courtesy vited the Yanks to tune up their batting eyes at Ebbets field, the American leaguers declare with thanks, saying they knew place well from past World Series and exhibition games. No Prediction While Stengel staunchly refuto predict the outcome of the play off, Dressen continued to brew fire and defiance in his talks with newsmen, possibly to bolster morale of his athletes. "I've told them there's no more DiMaggios and Henrichs on the Yankees to scare you like they used to be," said the voluble leader. "They're only the one in the American league — no great club. I'm not worried about their pitching after facing fellow like Robin Roberts and Sal Mize in the National league." Ideal Setup Duke Snider is the only leftfielder in the starting lineup nounced by Dressen. This would appear to be an ideal setup such violent righthand throwers Reynolds and Roschi in the games at Ebbets field. There British Speed Ace, John Cobb, Dies in Record-Breaking Attempt Writer Selects Mickey Mantle As Series Star BY JOE REICHLER NEW YORK (AP)—Who will be the outstanding star in the 1953 World Series? Jackie Robinson? Peewee Reese? Joe Black? Phil Rizzuto? Yogi Berra? Allie Reynolds? The writer's selection is Mickey Mantle, the ever-improving New York Yankee sophomore star who has done a fine job filling the shoes of the great Joe DiMaggio in centerfield. Monopoly The Yankees have had a monopoly on world series stars the past few years. Rizzuto was acclaimed the series' outstanding star last October for his sterling work at short stop. Gerry Coleman, the Yankees' fine second baseman, won the honors in 1950 for his brilliant defensive play and timely hitting. Reynolds was chosen in '49 for his superb work on the mound. Fourth Straight Mantle may become the fourth straight Yankee to win the honor. The Oklahoma strong boy has improved at such rapid pace during the summer that he developed into one of the most feared basemen in the American League. During the September stretch drive Mantle was a one-man destruction gang, clubbing at a 375 pace to bring his batting average up to .311. No other Yankee hit so well except Gene Woodling, who also averaged .311. Switch Hitter LOCH NESS, Scotland c—The jet-proelled speedboat Crusader blew to pieces in a cloud of smoke and spray on Loch Ness yesterday, carrying British speed ace John Rhodes Cobb to death at a three-miles-a-minute clip. Cobb, out to break the world hydroplane speed record, was traveling at 206.89 miles an hour—a faster than man had ever traveled before on water—when the speedboat disappeared in a flurry of spray and was scattered in pieces about storied Loch Ness, home of the horny-headed "Monster." Wife Watches Cobb's wife saw her 32-year-old speed demon husband race to his death. She hid her hands in her face and turned away as the boat exploded. Cobb was picked out of the water still alive, but died a few moments later. The Crusader was roaring down the course toward the end of its first measured mile. The 31-foot speedboat, latest of Cobb's many racing vehicles, was skipping up and down over the surface. Disintegrates "Suddenly," said G. E. Nicholson, a hotel manager who witnessed the accident, "it disappeared in a flurry of spray and disintegrated." Mrs. Cobb was standing about 50 yards from me, watching." Nicholson continued, "She put up her hands to hide her face, and turned away..." If the Crusader had not completed its mile, it must have been traveling about 200 miles per hour. World's Fastest Cobb, the six-foot-two speed specialist who piloted an automobile over the Utah Flats at baker than 403 miles an hour in 1950—the fastest man ever travelled on land—had his speedboat built for the attempt at the world's water speed record. The engine was similar to the one which propel Britain's jet-engine Comet airliners. At top speed, Crusader would just skim water on her undersection and two floats. The boat cost 15,000 pounds ($42,000) to build. A combination of plywood and aluminum alloys were used in its construction; give it top strength, plus lightness. DALLAS (AP)—You can depend on the Lone Star staters do things a little bigger than anybody else. The Texas Longhorns have not one but three captains and they have not one but two telephones from the press box on the bench—one telephone for each platoon. SANTA CLARA (AP)—Coach Dana Gallagher says his Santa Claire football Broncos go into the Sanford opener wiith Stanford in go shape. The squad held an all-out drill yesterday without injury. Stanford outs, according to Gallagher, we tackle Bill Olson and guard Ral Salazar. Mantle may become the fourth straight Yankee to win the honor. The Oklahoma strong boy has improved at such rapid pace during the summer that he developed into one of the most feared basemen in the American league. During the September stretch drive Mantle was a one-man destruction gang, clubbing at a 375 pace to bring his batting average up to 311. No other Yankee hit so well except Gene Woodling, who also averaged 311. Switch Hitter The fleet youngster paced the Bronx Bombers in hits, total bases, extra base hits and was second only to Berra in home runs and runs batted in. A switch hitter, Mickey possesses equal power from both sides of the plate. He hit 12 homers left handed and 11 righthanded. The Switcher, as he is called by his teammates, also has developed into a good defensive player. Moved to the outfield from shortstop last year, Mantle has picked up the finer points of outfielding so rapidly he is rated as one of the best defensive center fielders in the league. His blinding speed and his strong right arm have been big factors in overcoming his inexperience at a strange position. This will be Mantle's second World Series. A rookie last year he appeared in two games, collecting one hit in five times before suffering a knee injury. CONQUER YOUR CONSTIPATION A remarkable medical discovery is offered in McCoy Norm Tabs.

This would be to be an ideal setup for violent righthand throwers as kids and Raschi in the two at Ebbets field.

NO GOOD—A Missouri pass intended for Jim Jennings, end, didn't get into his outstretched hands because the lad in the dark jersey, Ed Michelsen, California half, knocked the ball down. This action came during the first period of the game at Berkeley, Saturday. California won 28-14. Sammy Baugh Tossed Out of Football Game CHICAGO (UP)—The Washington Redskins' 38-year-old player coach Sammy Baugh was tossed Sammy Baugh Tossed Out of Football Game CHICAGO (UP)—The Washington Redskins’ 38-year-old player coach, Sammy Baugh, was tossed out of the game last night — but not before he had completed 11 consecutive passes to inspire his team to a 23-7 National Football league victory over the Chicago Cardinals. The upset win, before 17,800 fans in Comiskey park, opened league play for both teams. Washington lost five exhibition games. Baugh and Don Joyce, 250-pound second year tackle from Tulane, exchanged blows after a pile-up in the fourth period. Both were ejected. It was the first time in the pro career of the usually calm Baugh—starting his 16th season with the Redskins—that he had been banished. Two Baugh passes went for touchdowns. The string of passes gave Baugh a total of 1700 completions for his pro career, plus 187 touchdown tosses. Washington, taking a 17-0 half time lead that was never threatened, spoiled the professional coaching debut in the league of Joe Kuharich.
