WV PAOK S~ THE MICHIGAN DAILY SUNDAYOMTOBR8, 193(O Yanks Champions Again After World Series Sweep Ford Throttles Phillies, 5-2 Berra Ignites N.Y. Power * * * * * * * * * ilini, Spa tans Go ^ Down TO' * * *r By The Associated Press NEW YORK-New York Yankee pitching and Yankee power sent the unhappy Whiz Kids from Phil- adelphia reeling to defeat, 5 to 2, in the World Series today before 68,098 roaring spectators. The fourth straight victdry gave the Yankees their 13th World Cham- pionship in 17 attempts. But for an error by outfielder Gene Woodling with two out in the ninth inning, Whitey Ford, a 21- year-old freshman marvel from the sidewalks of New York, would have plastered the National League champs with their second shut- out of the one-sided playoff. * * * THE WONDERFUL kid had to, be taken out when the next PhilI singled, and the veteran Allie Reynolds went in to strike out a pinch-hitter, Stan Lopata, for the final out of the series. But the greatest cheer that rocked the arena all day accompanied the lit-E tMe southpaw as he strolled to theE dugout.r For eight and two-thirds in-1 nings he had out-pitched three5 Philly hurlers, including Jim C Konstanty, and had struck outt seven with an amazing. assort- ment of stuff. By all availablet records, Ford is the youngestt pitcher ever to start a Worldr Series game, much less win it.( t'.ialt......:b}°'°,{.,f ................ a: YOGI BERRA .. . blasts homer S * * gle to left to open the inning. Nor even when Del Ennis, the next man, was struck on the right leg by a Ford fast ball. The cool youngster had been pitching out of worse scrapes than that all af- ternoon. Dick Sisler, the batting bust of the series, followed with a hopper to Gerry Coleman, on which En- nis was forced at second, and then Granny Hamner went down swing- ing at a third strike. It appeared to be all over when Woodling trotted over near the left barrier and got under Seminick's tower- ing fly. But, as the crowd gasped in amazement, the outfielder let it drop tb the grass two runs dashed across. Seminick, Badgers Win Close Contest In Rain, 7-6 CHAMPAIGN -(P)-- Fullback Bob Radcliffe sloshed 31 yards in a heavy downpour with a pass in- terception for a touchdown and John Coatta booted the point for a Wisconsin 7-6 win over Illinois yesterday in a Big Ten football' opener for both teams. The ill-fated Illini pass by quar- terback Fred Major was filched by Radcliffe in the second period, to erase a 6-0 Illini lead. * * * THAT WAS THE ball game, and a , drenched Memorial Stadium crowd of 54,230 sat through a scoreless second half that had both teams slipping fruitlessly along the gridiron as though it were a waxed ballroom.I Illinois, a ore-touchdown fa- vorite and a highly regarded Conference title threat, scored in the opening quarter as though it meant business. Thed Iini counted with an 87 yard drive capped by Dick Raklovits' one foot touchdown plunge. But on the Illini extra point try the pass from center from Bill Vohaska was poor and place kick-- er Sam Rebecca had no choice except to pick the errant ball and try to run across. He was nailed on the Wisconsin four. While Whitey was standing the Phillies on their collective heads, his teammates burst loose for the first time in the four series games with something resembling the power for which they are famous. S * LED By catcher Yogi Berra, who got a, home run and a single to drive in two of their runs, the Bombers rocked the Phil starter, Bob Miller, for two runs before he could retire the second Yank in the first inning. Konstanty, making his third appearance in three days, was pounded for three more in the sixth, which Berra led off with a drive into the right field stands. These runs turned out to have been needed, but until Woodling made his unfortunate muff of a fly from Andy Semi- nick's bat at the end the Yanks appeared to be home so safely and easily that the contest was en the dull side. There was no reason to suppose that Ford was headed for trouble in the ninth when Willie Jones, the Phil third baseman, pumped a sin- 7 1 1 l BIG TEN HIGHLIGHTS: Indiana Victors, 20-7,OvrFoedI w Ovr av~or Iow By The Associated Press BLOOMINGTON -Stubby Lou D'Achille, pass-pitching and end- running sophomore, quarterback- ed Indiana University to a 20-7 upset victory over Iowa yesterday and cracked a five-year-old West- ern Conference record in the pro- cess. One of D'Achille's two scoring passes, to Bobby Robertson, cover- ed 91 yards, including Robertson's 66-yard run after he caught it. * * * THE OLD 1ECORD on a Big Ten scoring play was 76 yards, a pass from Bill Butkovich of Illinois to Ray Cisczeh on Nov. 18, 1944, al- so against Iowa. Iowa's Hawkeyes had set them- selves up as a Big Ten title threat with a 20-14 victory over South- ern California last week. D'Achille was the priceless in- gredient added to the Indiana squad which won only one game last year and failed to take a West- ern Conference contest. Robert- son's running and pass-catching helped. So did some superior de- fensive playing by guard Bill Smith. But the five-foot eight- inch D'Achille was the boy for 26,000 Hoosier homecoming fans. Iowa, mainly through the hard running of fullback Bill Reitch- ardt and halfback Jerry Faske, outgained Indiana on the ground, 346 yards to 310. It had 18 first downs against Indiana's 7. Against that, D'Achille complet- ed 8 of the 14 passes for a total of 214 yards. Glen Drahn, Iowa's passing star, completed only 9 of 20 passes for 110 yards and had three inter- cepted. None of D'Achilles passes were hauled down by the Hawk- eyes. Indiana got all of its touchdowns in the first half, before Iowa scor- ed. A 23-yard pass from D'Achille to Robertson set up Robertson's 6-yard scoring plunge after less than five minutes of play. * * * Buckeyes Romp< game and Pittsburgh was unable to move against ,any of them un- til the last two, minutes when they staged an 86-yard scoring march with quarterback Bob Bestwick . completing. f o u r straight passes for the touch- down. Janowicz starte d his big pitch- ing spree with a nine-yard touch- down to right haliback Ray Ham- ilton after Bestwick fumbled and tackle Dick Logan recovered for Ohio State. In the same petriod he hit end Tom Watson with a 47-yard scor- ing toss and just before the period closed he pitched a six-yard touch- down pass to end $herwin Gandee. * * * NU Sinks Navy BALTIMORE - Navy was tor- pedoed by the smashing of Rich Athan and bombrarded by Dick Flowers' passing in a 22-0 shel- lacking dealt out by Northwestern before 12,000 spectators yesterday. Athan ripped through for two touchdowns after teaming with Dick Alban to tear the Navy line apart. Quarterback Flowers f lip- ped atouchdown pass to end Don Stonesifer and Bob Burson kicked a field goal for the rout. * * * NORTHWESTERN'S supremacy in its second straight triumph was never in doubt after the first few minutes when Navyis best offen- sive punch petered sout. The Middies, in absorbing their second consecutive licking, had. only two scoring opportunities all afternoon and the second was late in the contest against Northwest- ern subs. Coach Bob Voights start- ed pulling out his regulars in the fourth period with a 16-0 lead. The busy and tireless Athan took the ball 25 times through Navy's line to gain 140 yards;. Alban went 12 times for 44. Flowews completed 12 out of 22 passes for 121 yards. In addition to bottlng up Navy's ground attack, the :northwestern defense gave quarterback Bob Zas- trow a hard time. He completed only nine out of 26 passing at- tempts. )efeat MSC Beaten By Maryland In 34=7_Rout TerrapinsW With Late Surge EAST LANSING-()-A I a t e- ral-happy Maryland football team, sparked by its sensational sopho- more quarterback John Scarbath,i free-wheeled its way past favoredl Michigan State yesterday, 34 to 7,' in a major upset before 39,376 fans. The tricky play of the under- rated Maryland Terrapins com-' pletely outpowered and outpassedl the bufuddled MSC Spartans, who. only last week upset mighty Michi- gan, 14 to 7, and went into the game ranked as the nation's no. 2 team. BESIDES the, fancy ball hand- ling and running of Scarbath, who scored one of Maryland's touch- downs on a line plunge, the:victor's stars included Ed (Mighty Mo) Modzelewski and Bob (Shoo-Shoo) Shemonski. Modzelewski scored once each in the first and second periods on line plunges and Shemonski capped his sparkling line slants by a 37-yard touchdown run late in the fourth period. The only consolation Michiganj State had was the 67-yard touch- down run by Spartan halfback (Sonny) Grandelius early in the third quarter. MARYLAND, getting stronger as the game wore on, poured on; three touchdowns in the final per-- iod to turn it into startling run- away after Michigan State had I been rated behind only Notre Dame in the Associated Press poll. Scarbath got one of the last period markers. Center Pete'La- dygo made- another-on a'28-yard run with an intercepted pas and Shemonski ran 37 yards..on a reverse for the final touchdown. Maryland racked up 14 first downs to Michigan State's eight and peeled 204 yards with its smashing ground game against the Spartans' 140. The big, fast Maryland line,{ headed by standout guard Bobby Ward, continually rushed the Spartan passers while the defen- sive Maryland backfield smothered receivers almost completely. Mich- igan State completed only three passes for 39 yards. -} Good-Bye Baseball, -Daily-Carlisle Marshall PUTICH LEAPS FOR AERIAL FROM PETERSON.

I MINNEAPOLIS - Nebraska's Cornhuskers, sparked by speedy and elusive halfback. Bob Rey- nolds, upset a favored Minnesota footbal lteam wit ha 32 to 26 tri- umph today. Reynolds crossed Minnesota's goal line twice-once on a fancy 67-yard exhibition of tricky run- nig. He also contributed import- ant yardage in ground plays, help- ed out in the tossing department of Nebraska's aerial game, and kicked two points after touch- down. Reynolds was outscored but not outshown, by Minnesota's half back Ron. (Skip) Engcl. Engel cel- ebrated his 20th birthiday by scor- ing three of the flour Gopher touchdowns. He took passes for two of them and plunged over for the other. WEST POINT-(R)-Sparked by Bobby Blaik's flashy passing, the 1950 Army football team began to look like its mighty predecessors yesterday as it handed Penn State a 41 to 7 trimming in jam-packed Michie Stadium. Uncertain on offense at the out- set and hampered by numerous penalties Army caught fire and turned in two sensational scoring plays at the finish to turn a tough game into a rout. . *w*" * BUT UNTIL those last few min- utes, it looked to the 26,252 fans as if Army didn't have much more than Blaik's throwing arm and a cast iron defense. The defense twice stopped the white-clad Nittany Lions from Pennsylvania close to the goal in the first quarter and coach Earl Blaik's talented son threw two touchdown passes to captain Dan Foldberg inrthesecond period. It was a hard, game up to that point. Army rolled up two more touch- downs in the third quarter with Gil Stephenson and Gene Filip- ski scoring, but its attack still wasn't consistent. * * * WHILE THE Cadets got togeth- er for two long marches, the sec- ond featured by Al Pollard's 34- yard run, they were turned back near the goal on another occasion and kept getting in trouble through repeated rules infractions. They virtually gave Penn State - I its touchdown, drawing two 15- yard penalties after a fumbled punt had given State the ball at midfield. Bill Mathers recovered when Walter Walker dropped Vince O'Bara's kick. The 'two penalties for roughness and one completed pass put the ball on the two yard line and Tony Or- sini charged over. In the remaining minutes, Army scored as if it was running signal practice. Carl Guess ran the kick- off back 31 yards, Stephenson went 20 and Jack Martin swung around end and traveled the last 40 on a beautiful run. Shortly afterward Penn State kicked to the Army forty and a pass from Gibby Reich to Vic Pol- lock ; carried the ball right back sixty yards for the final score.
