RANKS FIRST IN NATION;
WASHINGTON IS TENTH
COAST LEAGUE
TALKING OVER
SKED CHANGES
(By the Associated Press)
The Pacifc Coast League’s ill fated
200-game experiment enters its final
week tonight with these develop
ments:
1. There is serious talk among the
league directors of trimming next j
year's schedule to 182 games or less
and of reviving the post season
playoffs.
2. Ail figures aren’t in yet, but if
Seattle and Hollywood’s home at
tendance records are any indication,
the clubs are in for a financial
shellacking.
3. The Boston Braves could be
tough to hit in the National League
next season. They now have two of
the PCL’s foremost piteners—Ma..
Surkont from Sacramento and Jn ■
Wilson from Seattle.
The PCL’s board of directors will
meet in Oakland Oct. 19.
Hollywood and Seattle should have
plenty of dismal evidence to present
at the meeting. Hollywood closed out
its home schedule with a turnstile
count of 422,389 paid admissions,
some 80.000 below last year when
the Stars won the pennant.
Attendance was off by about 58.000
in Seattle. The 1950 total of 492.G47
was the first time in several years
that the Rainiers have failed to
draw a half million customers cr
more.
Wilson, the Rainiers’ 24 game
winner, will probably make his last,
PCL appearance at Los Angeles to
night before joining Boston. He will
face Ralph Hamner (12-15).
WELTERWEIGHTS
ARE TOO
MILWAUKEE, Oct, 3—iff)—Joe
Miceli turned back lightweight
champion Ike Williams’ latest ven
ture into the welterweight ranks
last night by left hooking his way
to a unanimous 10-round decision.
Williams, 142 w, staged a furious
rally in the final round of the nen
title bout, but it was too late.
Two judges scored the bout 8-3
and 6-4 for Miceli while the referee
called it 6-5.
A crowd of 4,465 paid $11,853 net.

By MURRAY ROSE
NEW YORK, Oct. 3—,?)—Notre
Dame still is the No. 1 college foot
ball team in the nation but it looks
as if the Irish are going to have to
do a lot more fighting to hold cn to
their cherished laurels this year.
The first Associated Press poll rf
the season fffund Frank Leahy’s lad'
at the top again—just where they
left off last November.
But four other collegiate aggre
gations — Michigan State. Southern
Methodist, Army and Oklahoma—
are bunched right behind them.
The South Benders barely nosed
out North Carolina. 14-7, Saturday.
A total of 190 sports writers and
broadcasters, representing a coast
to coast panel, voted the Irish No.
1, with 1,500 points and 63 first
place nominations.
jrhe University of Washington
rated 10th with 211 points. Michi
gan State, surging to the fore on
the strength of its upset 14-7
triumph over mighty Michi; • u,
gained the No. 2 position with 1,293
joints.
Two points behind came Southern
Methodist whose passing circus ac
counted for a 32-27 triumph over
Ohio State’s Rose Bowl kings.
Army’s Black Knights, who beat
Colgate 28-0, were voted fourth place
with 1,290 points. Oklahoma’s re
built Sooners gained the fifth rank
ing with 1,025 points.
Unbeaten U.C.L.A. was 13th.
NEW YORK. Oct. 3—.T—Ea e
ball’s brain trust—the major league
managers — today lined up about
three to one behind the New York
Yankees to win the World Series.
But Philadelphia’s Phillies found
strong support in the National
League’s 1°50 “Bride’s Maids” —
Brooklyn Burt Shotton and Leo
Dur cher of the New York Giants.
Shotton and Durocher both pre
dicted the Phillies’ tlght-squeak
finish would provide a psychological
lift that would propel them past the
confident Yankees.
’•In seven games,” said Burt.
Eight of the managers, heading
for the opening game tomorrow in
Philadelphia or relaxing at home,
said the New York Yankees had
too much sock and savvy for Bob
Carpenter’s youngsters.
Three—the Phillies’ Eddie Sawyer
naturally joining Shotton and Du
rocher—picked the National League
champs.
Connie Mack, as an American
Leaguer and a Philadelphian, deftly
straddled the fence.
“I’m neutral.” he said.
The four other skippers were in
transit somewhere and not available
for comment.
Lou Boudreau of Cleveland and
Zack Taylor of the St. Louis Browns
said flatly New York would win in
five games. Others hedged about.
Here’s how some of the managers
see the series:
Zack Taylor, Browns: “I pick the
Yankees in five games. They have
the best pitching and more power.

By JACK HAND
PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 3 — i/PI —
Y< ung Robin Roberts, the Phila
delphia Phils’ life saver in the pen
nant clincher, probably will be Man
ager Eddie Sawyer’s pick to face
the New York Yankees' Vic Raschi
tomorrow in the World Series opener
at Sliibe Park.
Sawyer may decide to go with
veteran Ken Helntzclman, his grey
ihatched lefty,,but most of the "cx
I rids" figure Robert: a must. A def
i ute announcement was to be made
‘ today, during the Phils' final pre
erie work out In this baseball-mad
city.
Roberts, a strong-armed 24-year
old kid, pitched 10 tiring innings
Sunday. But he worked with only
two days rest, some eight times this
season. Last week he started Wed
nesday. Thursday and Sunday going
22 innings in five days.
“Roberts works better with two
days rest than lie does with three,”
aid Sawyer yesterday.
“I’m ready and I can go,” said
J Roberts. .
j No other pitcher on the staff, no
I matter how brilliant, could possibly
j live the 13 to 5 underdog Whiz Kids
j a lilt like Roberts (20-11) after Sun
I day's thrilling performance.
Phil’s 29 Game Winner
I In Roberts, their fir-t 20-game
j winner since Grover Cleveland
j Alexander in 1917. the youthful
' Phils know they haw a stopper,
j They know they don’t need too many
} runs to win. And they haven’t been
' getting too many runs lately, to put,
1 it mildly.
The Phils listened to Scout George
Earnshaw's report on the Yanks yes
terday in their own locker room
while the Yankees limbered up
briefly at the Yankee Stadium in
New York.
; Earnshaw followed the Yanks
' through the West on their last
Western tour. He has an extensive
“book” on each New York hitter and
pitcher.
_ - - *—"-y
“Most ot them are fast ball hit
' ters." Earnshaw told the Kids who
, know little about Joe DiMaggio, Yogi
Berra and Phil Rizzuto except what
they have read in the papers.
The players did not appear over
whelmed at the prospect of playing
New York. They rooted for the
Yanks to win the pennant so they
could slice n larger series melon.
Now they are confident of victory
and hoot nt the topheavy odds fav
oring New York.
It tschi Has Series Experience
Stengel wasted little time In pick
ing Ha .chi (21-8) for the opener.
He aid Allie Reynolds (Hi-12) will
pitch the second game with Ed Lo
pat (!8-8i ready for the third.
' rtaschi is my man." said Casey.
Vic has been my big pitcher all
, o , r. He deserves the shot."
R.nsehi pulled up with a sore
boulder in Chicago two weeks ago
but came back to beat the Boston
Red Sox in a vital game five day.,
later. He was shelled hard by the
| Philadelphia A\s in hi.; last outing
Thursday.
The Yanks’ righthande 1 are def
initely will have an edge in ex- |
perience over Sawyer's choice.
Rttfchi pitched in four World Series
games in 1047 to 1049.
Stengel poke with respect of the
Phillies, scoffing at the odds.
' rhat's a good ball club over in
Philadelphia," he said. "It had to be
id to beat a ‘red hot Brooklyn
am in the biggest game of the year
for both clubs.
“Of course I think we’ll win but
they've got some tough pitchers.
That's the only way they can win—
if they get great pitching I don’t
think they'll outslug us."
There is no doubt that a bulging
cep:' ity crowd of some 34,000 Will
jam Shibe Park tomorrow long be
fore the 10:00 a m. PST starting
