Reds Capture Second Game 5-2 To Even Series Score Tiger Hurlers Are Raided As Cincinnatti Piles Up 11 Hits In Power Drive Derringer Proves Excellent Strategy BRIGGS STADIUM, Detroit, Oct., 5.-(A)-The courageous Cincinnati Reds coursed back onto even terms in the 1940 World Series today by muzzling the Detroit Tigers, 5 to 2, on the five-hit pitching of big Paul Derringer. The Reds raided three Detroit pit- chers for 11 hits and were always on the attack, to the amazement of a crowd of 54,093 who turned out for the fourth fracas of the annual au- tumn classic. They kept up a more or less con- stant shower of hits, but the import- ant contribution to the conquest was the strong-arm hurling of Derringer. It was the fifth time the 33-year- old Kentuckian had started in a World Series, once when he was breaking in for the St. Louis Cardin- als and four times with the Reds, and this was his first victory. He went into today'stussie as a bit of surprise strategy on the part of Manager Bill McKechnie and de- termined to stifle the Tiger sluggers. He did it with the same stout-heart- ed elbowing that he has used to pull the National League champions out of many another tight hole. He was wild at the start, but the longer he pitched the tougher he be- came, giving no hits and no walks after the sixth inning. The Reds, in the meantime, had pounced on Paul (Dizzy) Trout for two runs in the first inning and shelled him off the mound before he got anybody out in the third. As usual the bell cow of the Cin- cinnati club was Bill Werber, who went to the plate five times and got (Continued on Page 5) Scaffold Collapse Kills Two Workers N Michigan 's Power Defeats State As Harmon Takes Lead In Attack ---. sz By DON WIUTCHAFTER Michigan's bundle of gridiron dynamite exploded in the Stadium yesterday. Before a crowd of 65,438, the indomitable Wolverines, with All-Amer- ican Tom Harmon playing the leading role, overpowered a Michigan State squad that refused to say die, 21-14. The score hardly tells the story though of yesterday's sun-warmed battle. Fritz Cfisler's charges, in rolling up their third straight victory over the men from Sparta and their 26th in the 35-year history of the gridiron classic, completely out-charged, out-tackled and out-ran their foes from beginning to end. All in all, they marched to 19 first downs while State garnered but five. From scrimmage they gained 312 yards to 49 for the Spartans. The whole affair would have been a complete rout if it were not for one danger- ous flaw in the Wolverine attack-an old enemy that returned to plague the Crisler squad once again-a faulty pass defense. For it was through the air that Charley Bachman's outfit made its bid for victory. After an attack on land had failed to dent the powerful Wol- verine line, the victory-hungry Spartans unleashed a potent aerial offense, and it was there they uncovered the<-- Series Swag DETROIT, Oct. 5.-(AP)-Forty- eight persons will share in the money the Detroit Tigers receive as their end of the World Series pool, the management of the club announced today. Twenty-one players who were with the American League cham- pions all season, Manager Del Baker, Trainer Denny Carroll and Coaches Ralph Kress, Edmund Miller and Mervyn Shea will get full shares. The players voted to give half- shares to Traveling Secretary Clair Berry, Assitant Trainer Richard Blom. prime Michigan weakness. They were quick to take advan- tage of their, discovery, moreover, and in the second period, two well- placed aerial bombs netted their first tally. If ..that were not enough, a barrage of forwards carried State to pay dirt once again late in the final quarter. But aside from a flimsy pass de- fense, the Wolverines had everything yesterday. For one, they had sensa- tional Harmon at his best. He scored all three touchdowns and place- kicked the pigskin between the up- rights on each occasion for the extra- point. The Spartans were sent here with instructions to concentrate on stop- ping Michigan's great back. But like most teams that have tried before them, they found the task a diffi- cult one. If he wasn't running, Harmon was punting, place-kicking or passing. He completed five of 11 tosses yester- day for a total net gain of 50 yards.

P. BLAUSTEIN Painting a dismal picture of what would happen to the United States if Germany defeated England, Prof. James K. Pollock of the political sci- ence department urged more than 150 persons attending an American Soci- ety for Metals dinner at the League last night to "make national defense our major affair and relegate all of our personal matters to a secondary position." "The world must stop the Reich by acting," he declared, "and not by sitting down and claiming that the Nazis can't hurt us. The Germans are the best administrators in the world and we must realize that they are not growing weaker and becom- ing more disorganized as they acquire new territories." Professor Pollock continued by pointing out several examples of Hit- ler's plans which were laughed at in the past and showed how his ideas of getting "living space" for Ger- mans and getting economic control of the world would upset our whole standard of living. In Germany, he pointed out, there is an group known as the Institute of Terror whose activity is devoted to finding out both how to produce and how to control chaos. "Work of this type," he asserted, "resulted and Poland and was one of the major, if not the major, causes of their de- feat." "We are already at war because of our policy of giving aid to Britain," Professor Pollock commented, "and further participation may be expect- ed." He then explained to his audi- ence that he was not trying to get this country into the conflict but re- minded them that going to war as "soon as it was convenient" would do little to change our policy. "Students are definitely not plot- ters of revolution or anything of that kind," he declared, "but are just like the rest of us in believing in the freedom brought to them in our dem- ocracy."

The order applied to the entire organized and fleet reserves of the Navy and Marine Corps. It will swell to 239,281 the number ofd officers and men on' active duty, giving the sea- going forces a strength in personnel they have not possessed since the post-World War period. Shortly before he issued his order, the Naval Secretary saidrunequivo- cally in an address to graduates of the National Police Academy that the Japanese-German-Italian alli- ance "is directed at us," and that the United States would not be "inti- midated." His remarks were widely interpreted as an administration re- ply to yesterday's assertion by Prince Konoye, the Japanese Pre- mier, that any challenge of the Rome-Berlin-Tokyo axis would tum- ns may attempt the long-threatened Oinvasion of England soon-perhaps in the coming week--was based on reports that all was ready for Adolf Hitler's command at the "invasion ports," with Italian planes and fliers in occupied France behind the Nazi forces. Belief the Italians are ready to start a major offensive toward Alex- andria and the Suez was based on reports from Italy of German troops, engineers and specialists passing through the Brenner Pass on the way to the Italian base at Libya. It was believed possible also that Spain, despite assertiorn of her con- tinuing non-belligerency, might try to grab Gibraltar with the help of Italy by sea and air and Germany by land. Berlin and Rome, although hint- ing at an impending knockout swing, still made a mystery of Axis plans. Nazi informants spoke of a blow at an especially "vulnerable spot"--un- named-while talk in Berlin centered on the eastern Mediterranean as a potential decisive battleground. Fascist editorial guns turned on Turkey as a satellite of Britain and the United States, but Virginio Gay- da, Italy's most authoritative edi- torial voice, contented himself with the declaration that "the two Axis powers are resuming their war oper- ations . . . The effect will be seen soon." Whatever "surprises" the Axis may plan, British military sources looked toward the winter, they said, with "reasonable confidence" as the Nazi air siege of London went into its fifth week.
