State . 0 0 0 Early Marker Sends Spartans, Down to Defeat Mississippi State Goes 85 Yards To Win, 6-0 By The Associated Press EAST LANSING, Mich., Oct. 12-A hard-running Mississippi State Col- lege elevn took the opening kickoff and marched 85 yards for the lone touchdown of the day as it edged Michigan State 6 to 0 today. A crowd of 22,125 wet, chilled spec- tators saw halfbacks Larry Matu- lich and Tom "Shorty" McWilliams spark the scoring drive which saw Matulich plunge over from the four- yard line on the 14th running play of the game.. The winners then survived a pair of Spartan drives to the five-yard line in the second and third periods to post their first win over Michigan State. MSC's Second Defeat Failure to match Mississippi State's double first-string line cost Coach Charley Bachman's team its second successive defeat against a single vic- tory over Wayne University. The Spartans made two drives via the air- ways, but each time lost the ball on downs after failing to push over for the scpre. Meanwhile, Mississippi State was ripping big holes in the Spartans' line to hold the Michigan State ground attack to a mere 21 yard net. The Maroons, with Matulich, McWilliams and Capt. Billy "Shook" Murphy car- rying the attack, picked up 182 yards rushing and added 23 on one complet- ed pass. Drive 57 Yards The Southern eleven opened the fourth period with a 57-yard drive that ended on the one-yard line after Murphy had hammered away at the center of the Michigan State line for three plays. The Spartans perked up after halting that threat and came back to their own 37, but were forced to punt on fourth down. Series Slants St. Louis, Oct. 12 - (A)- Only the speed and the cunning in the left arm of Harry (The Cat) Bre- cheen stands tonight between the Cardinals and sudden death in the 1946 World Series. Tailing two games to three to the revived Boston Red Sox in the big autumn play-off, the National League champions must win here tomorrow behind their acrobatic little south- paw star or accept second money. Seldom in series history has there been a more dramatic build-up for one of the final, crucial contests. For, opposing Brecheen, will be the burly Dave (Boo) Ferriss, the 25-game win- ner, out to throttle the Cards for the second time and bring the Red Sox their first championship since 1918. Both pitched shutouts in their previous series starts. Brecheen, the little fellow with the big screw- ball, baffled the Sox sluggers in the second game, setting them down with four widely spaced hits to square the play-off at a victory a piece. Ferriss, not to be outdone, came right back in the third game at Bos- ton to handcuff the Red Birds with six blows and again put the Ameri- can Leaguers out in front. The meet- ing of the two shutout artists at Sportsman's Park tomorrow is a nat- ural. Yesterday's sensational four-hit triumph by Joe Dobson, one of Bos- ton's junior varsity flingers, came as manna to Cronin, who had about run out of pitchersiafter Thursday's holocaust in which the Cards bat- tered six of his hirelings for 20 hits. Dobson struck out eight, including Whitey Kurowski and Terry Moore twice each, and he did not walk a man until the ninth inning. Perhaps the most amazing fea- ture of the play-off up to this point has been the impunity-one might almost say the impudence- with which the Cardinals have pitched to Ted Williams. EN ROUTE TO ST. LOUIS, Oct. 12-1P)-It is highly improbable that and team ever went into the end of a- World Series with as many crip- pling injuries as the St. Louis Cardi- nals have today as they prepare to meet the Boston Red Sox in the sixth and what may be the final game of the current classic. At least six regular members of the team-Ends (Country) Slaugh- ter, Terry Moore, Howie Pollet, Marty Marion, Al Schoendienst and Whitey Kuroaski-are on the semi- invalid list. Probably the most serious injury is the 9ne suffered by Slaughter, the rightfielder, who has been finding the range of late with his booming bat. Slaughter was forced to retire from yesterday's game when hit on the right elbow by an errant pitch by Joe Dobson, and both he and manager Eddie Dyer were pessimistic about his return to the lineup tomorrow. The loss of Slaughter might be f a- tal to the Cards. In addition to his superior fielding and trmendous throwing arm, Country leads all the series hitters with 12 total bases and is the only Cardinal to hit a home. run. It is fairly certain that Pollet, who tried courageously to stem the Boston bats despite an extremely painful back ailment in yesterday's 6-3 defeat, will not throw another ball in this series. A source who should know but refused to be iden- tified, said: "His back and side are in awful shape. How that boy can throw at all is a miracle to me." Moore's playing status has been in doubt due to a damaged right knee. Marion's aching back has been act- ing up again as a result of the train rides from St. Louis to Brooklyn to St. Louis to Boston and back to St. Louis within two weeks. The Cardinals of today may not be the quality of the gas house gang of a decade ago in ability, but they are just as game. Rumored Iarclay Going to Harvard Atiletic Director H. O. (Fritz) Crisler was noncommittal last night on a report that Bill Bar- clay, Michigan golf coach and as- sistant basketball coach, would be named to the Harvard University coaching staff as head basketball coach. Barclay who also scouts for the Wolverine football team was at Northwestern to look over the Wildcats yesterday and could not be reached for comment. William J. Bingham, Harvard's athletic di- rector, could not be reached at his Cambridge, Mass., home for con- firmation of the possible Harvard offer. Barclay joined the Michigan coaching staff in 1942 as an assist- ant in football and basketball. A year ago Barclay was made head golf coach.

WE DELIVER By ALYS GEORGE Every week, while thousands of fanatic gridiron fans are cheering their heros on to greater heights, there is a small group of men who battle their way into crowded foot- ball stadiums, struggle into their seats among the confused multitude in or- der to see games they can never en- joy. This is the plight of a football scout, a group to which Ernie McCoy of the Michigan football coaching staff can claim membership since 1925. McCoy Returned from Navy During the war years Head Coach "Fritz" Crisler lost the services of McCoy when the Michigan scout en- tered the Navy to work in the aviation physical training program. This year in addition to his scouting duties, McCoy is helping Wally Weber coach the "B" team. According to McCoy, whether a scout diagrams the plays of only one rival eleven or several during the sea- son, depends on how late in the grid- iron campaign that opponent is met. This fall McCoy will be scouting Michigan State in two of the Spar- tan's games, and he will also take stock of the fighting Illini in one of their contests. In other sections of the country one school can send as many scouts to cover an opponent's game as they please, but Western Conference mem- bers, by agreement, send only one scout to each gridiron clash. Scouts Watch Play McCoy declared that besides the general offensive and defensive abil- ity of the team, the scout must take note of such details as the exact po- sition and spacing of the players in each offensive and defensive forma- tion. A scout must also look for the dif- ferent defenses that are used in par- ticular situations, depending upon the yardage needed by the opposing team. "Not only team ability but also in- dividuals," said McCoy, "come under the scrutiny of a football scout." Whether a certain player is a fast or slow charger, a good or bad blocker or if he reveals any defects that can be taken advantage of, are of vital con- cern to a team in preparing a success- ful attack and defense. McCoy Debunks Player's Tips Although some story-book writers would have us believe that one player can tip of f the opposition as to the next offensive 'play by some peculiar habit, McCoy stated that never in his experience as a scout has a major eleven tipped its hand so completely by such a cue that it lost the game. -- - - --- --- ... ... .... ... - .... ... . . {> F f L.
