Donovan Relieves
Wynn was yanked by manager
Al Lopez, who knew that his No.
1 workhorse was through for the
day. Dick Donovan, hero of Tues-
day's skin-close 1-0 victory that
made this sixth game possible, was
brought in.
But his sliders were no my tery

neatly cleared the bases with a
375-foot wallop into the 10th row
of the right-centerfield stands.
Donovan was out before he
could retire a man. Turk Lown
and a White Sox procession of
three other relievers followed to
game's conclusion. They yielded
only one more run, but the dam-
age had been done.
Unlikely Hero
When the Series first started
there was considerable specula-
tion whether Wynn, Donovan, Bob
Shaw, Podres, Don Drysdale, or
Roger Craig would be the Series'
outstanding hurler. The name of
Larry Sherry was little known,
let alone being mentioned with the
above.
Yet Sherry, a lanky 24-year-old
righthander, was the Dodgers' hero
yesterday as he had been in three
previous games. In the four games
in which he saw action, Sherry
won two and was credited with

Podres had smooth sailing in
the first 3Y3 frames he pitched.
He had been touched only by Jim
Landis' bloop single in the first
which rolled .15 feet to the left of
home plate and stopped.
Podres Loses Control
Going after his second Series
win, Podres suddenly fell apart.
He beaned Landis, who was pro-
tected by his plastic helmet. A
walk to Sherm Lollar set the stage
for Ted Kluszewski's record-
smashing home run, his third of
the playoff. A mighty poke, it
bounced out of the first row in the
upper rightfield stands.
The giant first baseman thus
established a new Series record of
10 runs batted in, breaking the old
mark held jointly by Bob Meusell
and Billy Martin, both, with the
Yankees.
After walking Al Smith, man-
ager Walt Alston sent Podres to
the locker room and motioned for
Sherry, who wasn't even good
enough to make the team at the
beginning of the year.
Sherry's skill at first left some-
thing to be desired. Bubba Phillips
greeted him with a single. He got
pinch-hitter Billy Goodman on
strikes, but then walked Earl Tor-
geson, batting for Lown.
With the bases loaded, Sherry
immediately became the money
pitcher he had been in other
Series efforts. Luis Aparicio pop-
ped up, ending the last serious
White Sox challenge.
Another rookie, Chuck Essegian,
finished out the day's and the
Series scoring in the ninth inning
with a homer off Ray Moore's first
pitch.

CHICAGO - Seldom does an
event find so many persons out of
character as does a World Series.
Maybe its because celebrities there
are a dime a dozen and for once
they aren't in the center ring.
They are the spectators (usually
self-paying, commissioner's or-
ders) not the stars.
For example, did you ever ex-
pect to see Casey Dillon Stengel,
manager of the New York Yankees
during a regular season, at the
business end of penand paper? In
a way, he is luckier than most
scribes who have covered previous
World Series, for he's never had
to decipher his own quotes into.

But despite his new role as cor-
respondent for a national maga-

- Bleacherite
CHICAGO-All Comiskey Park's a stage and all the men and
women in it merely players. And most of them not of the baseball
variety, either.
There were the clebrities for whom it is de rigeur to show up
around World Series time in minks and Cadallics. Maybe its their
appearance (presumably infrequent, during the mundane 154-game
season), that gives the post-season classic the glamour that few
other sporting spectacles can claim.
There were more than 600 newsmen providing coverage for
every corner of the world by lurking in every corner of the park, to
snare that "exclusive" story.
But the only group whose presence makes you certain that you're
still at a ball game and not at a Hollywood sneak preview or the
coronation of a king is the bleacherite.
For the bleacherite is the celebrity with mink removed and with
'49 Ford, not '59 Cadillac. He might have the ten bucks for a box,
seat, but most of his breed wouldn't budge from the section located
415 feet away from home plate at its shortest distance.
But question his_ devotion to, or knowledge of baseball, and
brother-you're in for a real pier-five hassle!
BUT IF HE SPENDS the previous night in line (as many did
Wednesday evening) it becomes a vigil worthwhile when the ticket
windows open at 8:20 a.m. and $2.05 are replaced with one admit-
tance. in 20 minutes close to a thousand pasteboards were snapped
up yesterday, and at the rate of only one to a customer.
And if one believes that, the four hours remaining before game
time in which the bleacherite is forced to stay in his seat (or lose
it) is 240 wasted minutes, he most certainly has never spent even a
minute in the outer reaches of the baseball world.
A battle-weary woman concessioner shouts in approved hard-sell
manner, "Get your White-Sot pennant, victory pins." Wanna wait
another forty years?" You'll all be dead! Get 'em now!
The parade of the vendors begins, not exactly in step to the
roving four-man band that is "serenading" the early arrivals. Quzz-
ling of brewed liquid refreshments and gorging of red-hots begins at
9:30. This is a going concern until the final out is made at 4:32. And
a hawker reveals the secret behind his intense devotion to the White
Sox: "Hope they win today; I want to work tomorrow."
Horns blow, firecrackers explode and punches are swung. A
woman bedecked with Sox charms and pins, red beanie and foot-high
feather, obviously the queen of the bleacherites, dances in the aisle
as the band strikes up "Chicago."
Is there any other way to see a series?

"BITE THE HAND"
Edmund Burke first noted
that some men will bite
"the hand that fed them".
But Mark Twain, in
'Pudd'nhead Wilson",
refined the observation and
made it biting;
"if you pick up a starving
dog and make him prosper-
ous, he will not bite you. This
is the principal difference
between a dog and a man."

Next door to Alaric's hog-floggery was an almond grove owned
by a girl named Chimera Emrick. Chimera was pink and white
and marvelously hinged, and Alaric was instantly in love. Each
day he came to the almond groye to woo Chimera, but she, alas,
stayed cool.
Then one day Alaric got a brilliant idea. It was the day be-
fore the annual Omaha Almond Festival. On this day, as every-
one knows, all the almond growers in Omaha enter floats in the
big parade. These floats always consist of large cardboard al-
monds hanging from large cardboard almond trees.
Alaric's inspiration was to stitch pieces of pigskin together
and inflate them until they looked like big, plump almonds.
"These sure beat skinny old cardboard almonds," said Alaric
to himself. "Tomorrow they will surely take first prize for
Chimera and she will be mine !"
Early the next morning Alaric carried his lovely inflated pig-
skin almonds over to Chimera, but she, alas, had run off during
the night with Walter T. Severidge, her broker. Alaric flew into
such a rage that he started kicking his pigskin almonds all over
the place. And who should be walking by that very instant but
Abner Doubleday!

"PRAISE THE LORD AND ETC."
Perhaps the most popular remark to come out
of World War ii is this exhortation made at
Pearl Harbor by Lt. Comm. Howell M. Forgy,
a Navy chaplain:
"Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition."
"IGNORANCE IS BLISS"
It was Thomas Gray who coined this comforting
generalization in behalf of all "D" students.
See his "On a Distant Prospect of Eton College":
"...where ignorance is bliss,
'Tis folly to be wise."

such fields as: magnetohydrodynamics; space medicine; ocea-
nography; sonics; propulsion and exotic fuels; metallurgy;
advanced systems research; manned space vehicles; reconnais-
sance; optics and infrared; electromagnetic wave propagation
and radiation; electronics; physics; chemistry; mathematics;
computer design; aero and thermo dynamics; test; design and
operations research and analysis.
PROJECTS- Current major projects include the Navy
POLARIS Fleet Ballistic Missile; the DISCOVERER program;
MIDAS and SAMOS; Air Force Q-5 and X-7 and the Army
KINGFISHER. PROJECT MIDAS is an early warning infra-
red system against ballistic missile attacks, based on the use of
satellites. PROJECT SAMOS is designed for the development
of an advanced satellite reconnaissance system. DISCOVERER,
MIDAS and SAMOS are programs of the Advanced Research
Projects Agency under the direction of the Air Force Ballistic
Missile Division with Lockheed as systems manager.

ENGINEERING AND
PHYSICAL SCIENCE
MAJORS
LOCATIONS -You have a selection of two of the choicest
living areas in the country at Lockheed. Headquarters for the
