Pep Talk
Taken Up
By Yanks
By BILL GRIMSLEY
NEW YORK, Oct. 9—:*>—Cagey
Casey Stengel doesn't go In much
for pulsating pep talks. Before
yesterday’s game he called the Yan
kees together and told them: "None j
of us has been doing worth a darn,
including me. Now let's go." They j
went.
Sal Maglle, whose 23 victories j
made him the star of the Giants j
in their unbelievable Nationalj
League comeback, hasn't been able j
to hit his stride in the post-season I
playoffs. He had to be rescued in
the decisive playoff game with
Brooklyn and then yesterday bowed
to the Yankees. But he takes some
sort of prize for magnanimity:
"If somebody had to hit a homer
off me I’m glad it was Joe DiMag
gio," he said. "He's a great guy
and he's had to take a lot of
abuse.”
Pretty soon Phil Rizzuto is going
to get the notion somebody on the
Giants doesn't particularly like him.
Saturday Eddie Stanky kicked the
ball out of his glove on the famous
"field goal” play and Jim Hearn
banged him with a pitched ball
that put a knot on his right wrist
and a bruise on his chest. Yester
day Stanky bounced a ball off the
back of Phil’s head on a rundown
play in the seventh.
Rizzuto kept his sense of humor
with the remark: "It was a soccer
play. I can play soccer, too."
Best crack of the series to date:
Leo Durocher has kissed so many
of his Giants during the past few
days it must be hard for him to
get used to Laraine again.”

among the also-rans with only
three points.

Matthews Knocks
Butcher Out
In Firs! Round
SAN FRANCISCO. Oct. 9—UP)—
Harry Matthews’ stock as a con
tender for Joey Maxim’s light
heavyweight boxing title was at a
peak today after a sensational first
round knockout of San Francisco’s
Grant Butcher.
The Seattle bomber floored the
heavier Butcher after only two
minutes 13 seconds of a scheduled
ten-rounder last night. Matthews
weighed 176, Butcher, 183.
A right to the jaw ended the
fight — immediately after Butcher
had been dropped for a five count
with a left hook to the chin.
Last month in Seattle, Matthews
scored a four-round technical
knockout over Butcher. But Butcher
wanted another match, claiming
the referee had acted too hastily
in stopping the fight.

DiMaggio
Is Pleased
Wilh Self
NEW YORK, Oct. 9—;<?)—"I think
I'll sleep tonight.”
The big fellow relaxed on his
stool, his mobile face split by a
contented, toothy grin. He looked
like the happy guy he was—at peace
with himself.
"It's a terrifying feeling, going
day ‘after day, not able to do any
thing right at the plate.”
Joe DiMaggio spoke softly after
the Yanks 6-2 victory over the
Giants yesterday. "It was not so
much that I wasn't getting any hits.
It’s that I didn’t even know what
! 1 was doing wrong. It was as if
! I had completely lost the strike
I zone.
‘“I got to thinking horrible
thoughts. Like I was going to go
through the entire World Series
without getting a single hit. It
couldn’t be possible, I thought. But
there I was—heading for just sucii
a thing. It wasn't possible, but it
was happening—to me."
But it had been a most profitable
afternoon for Joe. A pathetic fig
ure in the first three series games,
the Yankee Clipper snapped out of
his batting slump with a two-run
homer and a single.
Ho warmed up for his screeching
circuit clout in his first turn at
bat, connecting for several slash
ing fouls, one of them a tremendous
whack close to home run territory,
before striking out.
“I did things differently today,”
Joe said.
