CUBS BEAT TIGERS
DETROIT—The underdog Chi
cago Cubs brought extra base bats
to the first game of the world
series and shelled the feared Hal
Newhouser from the mound for
three innings and galloped to a
nine to nothing victory over the
Tigers.
In biting 45-degree weather, be
fore a jam packed sell-out crowd
adept National League champions
made a shambles of the Tigers
top-twirling thirteen hit attack
stood off the American League
sluggers all the way.
Borowy, right hander, whom
the Cubs bought for a hundred
thousand from the Yankees in mid
season came up with a wobbly
control early in the inning, but
was helped some by the spectacu
lar fielding and survived all threats
so well that only one Tiger got
as far as third base. This was Doc
Cramer, center fielder, who sin-!
gled in the first inning. Walks by
QUEEN OF THE SEAS
AGAIN RETIRES
The S.S. Victoria, the oldest
iron vessel in active duty, is again
being retired after more than 75
years.
Alaska Steamship officials an
nounced that “Her war job is
done, but if she’s needed again
we’ll put her back to work.” The
old “Vic” was built in 1870 at
Dumbarton, Scotland, and plied
the Atlantic Ocean, and as the
pride of the Cunard Line, made
many record crossings to and from
European ports before the turn of
the century. Since 1900, the ves
sel, then known as the Parthia,
has been sailing out of Seattle, as i
the “gold ship,” bringing miners
and their supplies to Alaska.
In 1903, the Alaska Steamship,
Company purchased the Parthia,;
remodeled and renamed her the
Victoria.
Many tales are told about the'
famed ship, which has piled up |
records and long, faithful service, j
The old “Vic” once .made the
trip from Nome to Seattle in
slightly over six days, a distance
of about 2600 miles. The old vet
eran has service ribbons from four
wars, serving as troopship and
cargo carrier.
The more dishwater a wedding
ring sees the longer it seems to
