THE MICHIGAN DAILY W1~flNF'~flAV XVXULX#Aa. cosO Angeles Whips Braves, 6-5, To Take Pennant .0' Y (Continued from Page 1) League history that ever moved from seventh place at the close of one season to win the pennant the next year. Dodgers Have Least Victories The Dodgers also clinched the championship with the fewest vic- tories of any other National League club, only 88 counting the two playoff triumphs. It wasn't an American League mark, however, for the 1945 Detroit''Tigers also won with 88." Roger Craig (11-5), the Dodgers' hottest pitcher in the stretch drive, was due to work the third playoff game if one was needed. Instead, he will open the World Series against the White Sox. His oppon- ent probably will be 22-game win- ner Early Wynn. With the Dodger triumph, the Series schedule now is set defi- nitely. Two games in Chicago Thursday and Friday will be fol- lowed by one off day Saturday for travel. They will resume at Los Angeles Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, if necessary. If they have to play the sixth and seventh there will be another one-day travel be- fore they resume at Comiskey Park. This was almost a routine game for eight innings, but the Dodgers let lose in the ninth to knot the score, 5-5. Each went quietly in the 10th inning although the Dodgers had a man on when Mantilla fumbled Moon's grounder. The 11th was enough to drive strong men to drink. Milwaukee loaded the bases on three walks before pinch hitter Joe Adcock bounced into a force out. Litle Time To Recover Alston's men hardly had time to recover from that scare before they too were involved in a rally. Jay hit Joe Pignataho in the ribs and Furillo got a single on a bunt that rolled past the charging Mat- hews. Jay got Wills and Fairly but Haney took him out after he loaded the bases by walking Gil- liam on four straight pitches. Bob Rush, last Brave pitcher and the loser, made Neal roll out on the first pitch but he couldn't escape when his defense collapsed in the 12th. Almost overlooked in the con- fusion was Mathew's 46th homer with nobody on in the fifth. It gave him the National League ,home run, title over Chicago's Ernie Banks who finished the sea- son Sunday with 45. In the clubhouse, Haney tried to ease the pain of Mantilla who sat in front of his locker with his head bowed and tears in his eyes. Made a Good Play "The kid made a good play," said his manager, "He just threw it bad. It was one of those things." In the jubilant Dodger club- house, Hodgeswho normally is a very quiet man, appeared to be the happiest of them all. "It's the biggest run I ever scored in my life," he said. "I had no idea of scoring. I actually stop- ped after rounding third base when Reese (coach Pee Wee Reese) yelled to go on. I took one look and just was able to see the ball bounce past Torre and hit (Greg) Mulleavy (the Dodger first base coach) on the shoulder and bounce away."

By CLIFF MARKS Michigan's gridders continued preparation for this Saturday's big game with arch-rival Michigan State by having the longest work- out of the season yesterday. The Wolverines, in getting ready for the first sellout crowd here in two years, practiced mainly on set- ting up a defense against MSU plays. "We're trying to correct those mistakes," said Coach Bump El- liott. "The ones we made last Sat- urday were hard, honest mistakes, but we still must eliminate them." The squad worked eagerly at minimizing its errors, despite the disheartening defeat suffered Sat- urday in the last two seconds. "Our spirit is fine, and our big job now is to get ready for State. We'll simply play them one at a time, forgetting the ones behind," said Elliott. This last remark also referred to the results of Saturday's Big Ten games involving future Michi- gan opponents. Northwestern's smashing of Oklahoma, and In- diana's decisive win over Illinois were two big surprises last week. At the same time, however, Ohio State and Wisconsin narrowly squeaked out victories, while Mi- ". " w" .'s. r v r.w, ^ "crv isyr" x dy w nesota was thrashed by Nebraska, and Michigan State dropped a thriller to Texas A&M. Although Elliott said that the Wolverines will play these op- ponents as they come, Saturday's games indicate that as far as 'M' opponents go, they all weren't im- pressive in the first week of action. There is one alment on the team which, attracted considerable at- tention yesterday, and that was Bennie McRae's toothache. He had a tooth pulled yesterday morning, and relaxed at practice. He will be ready to go today or tomorrow, and hopes are high that he will flash the same form he did in the open- er. COEDS Our flattering, casual, easy-to-do-hairstyles for fall will enhance You!

Tickets at BOB MARSHALL'S-DISC SHOP UP AND OVER-With less than three minutes to play and Michigan trailing the Missouri Tigers by two points, Wolverine end John Halstead (insert) was called on to put the toe to his first collegiate field goal. His successful attempt (circled) gave Michigan a 15-14 lead that they were unable to protect as they fell, 20-15 in the last two seconds of play.

When the Tigers' Bob Haas plunged over the Wolverine goal line with but two seconds remain- ing in the game and rolled the score to 20-15, he robbed Michigan end John Halstead of a moment of glory. Halstead, who had never before kicked a ball in college play, had been called upon less than three minutes before to attempt the field goal that would give the Wolver- ines the lead and probably the ball game. He came through with a low boot that traveled 32 yards on an angle from the left side of the field. But, instead of being the hero of the game, Halstead only man- aged to set the stage for one of the most exciting (and most dis- appointing for local rooters) fin- ishes ever seen on the grass of the Michigan Stadium. Although second-string quarter- back Haas snatched away Hal- stead's first chance at headlines this year with his colorful 76 yard drive and touchdown, the, husky blond is no stranger to the news- paper of Ann Arbor or his native Bay City. The blond flanker played his first football at Bay City Central under coach Elmer Engle. Engle, who' once played at the University of Illinois, and has been one of the most successful prep coaches in the state of Michigan seldom sees his Central Wolves out of the top 10 rankings. Halstead's tenure at Central was no exception to this. In fact, his junior and senior years each saw the Bay City squad among the top three class A teams in the state. In his senior year, Central went into its last game undefeated only to lose the mythical state title on a field goal (a relative rarity in high school ball). This Wolf-turned-Wolverine. Is not the only player that Engle has sent on to the college wars. From the players that were his team- mates at Central, Halstead can count seven others that are now playing across the' country from Michigan State to Alma to the University of Detroit to Arizona State. Not the least among these is his teammate at both Central and Michigan, Dick Syring. Top Ten The top ten, with total points based on 19 for a first place vote, 9 for second, etc. (First place votes in parenthesis): The twQ, Halstead and Syring, decided together to come to Michi- gan after having been approached by four Big Ten teams. Although he had kicked extra points in high school, Halstead had never had occasion to tally a three- pointer until the Missouri contest. With, the regular kicker, Daryl Harper, out of the game, Coach, Bump Elliott chose to go with Hal- stead and Bay City's burly blond cane through with the kick that made him A hero-almost. no experience necessary to join Call Morley or Chuck NO 23-24-1 Drysdale Podres Churn Koufax Labine williams (w, 5-5) x-Burdette y-McMahon Spahn Jay Rush (1, 5-6) x-Faced 3 batte y-Faced 1 batte IP H RER 41/3 6 4 3 2% 3 0 0 11/3 1 1 1 % 0 0 0 Y3 0 0 0 3 0 0 0 S 10 5 5 0 1 0 0 2% 1 0 0 1 2 1 0 9th. 9th.

This early in the season it is dif- ficult to predict games as most of the teams are unknown quantities, or else they are surprising, with the supposedly good ones playing bad ball and vice versa. There are enough new teams thrown in this week to make the contest for two free passes to the Michigan Theatre extremely in- teresting.
