Indians Win Eight In Row;
Dodgers Downed By Cubs
By CARL LUNDQUIST
NEW YORK, Sept. 12—Ullft-
Those roaring rivals of the spring
exhibition trail—the Indians and
the Giants—could be stretch-run-
ning into a thrilling double come-
from-behind finish that would wind
jut in the biggest and richest World
Veries of all time.
For, should the Indians meet the
Giants, there would be record
crowds and record receipts and a
record pot of money for the play-
ers. That would be automatic since
the Indians with their 80,000 ca-
pacity municipal stadium have the
biggest park in baseball and the
Giants with their 50,000 capacity
bath-tub shaped Polo Grounds have
the biggest in the National League.
Since the World Series is a sell-
out, what a money-melon there
would be to slice if these battlers
came to grips for real chips in-
stead of the marbles they play for
in that traditional spring exhibition
series.
They Edge Closer To Top
Much remains to be accomplish-
ed before such a finish could come
about, but the double-miracle looks
more plausible every day. Thurs-
day, both the Indians and Giants
picked up valuable ground as the
0inal showdown came Vloser and
closer. The Indians now are only
half a game out of the lead and the
Giants are just 3 1-2 games back.
The Indians, sizzling hot, won

their eighth straight game for their
longest streak of the year, 1 to 0,
from the Athletics as Big Bear
Mike Garcia pitched a two-hitter
for his third straight shutout, run-
ning his string of scoreless innings
to 28. Garcia gave up only a pair
of singles to Ferris Fain in achiev-
ing his 20th victory against nine
defeats.
He had to be almost perfect be-
cause loser Harry Byrd gave up
only five hits, one of which was a
winning homer by Bobby Avila.
The victory enabled Cleveland to
pick up a half game over the Yan-
kees who had an open date.
The Giants made it three in a row
over the last place Pirates and
nine victories in the last 11 when
they won a 5 to 4 thriller in which
rookie Hoyt Wilhelm came in to
strike out both Gus Bell and Ralph
Kiner with the bases loaded in the
seventh.
A1 Dark and Sal Yvars homered
and Yvars also delivered two sin-
gles while Bob Elliott came through
with a two-run pinch single that
put the Giants in front for good.
Everything Wrong For Dodgers
The Dodgers had another of
those days when' everything went
wrong and blew a vital 11 to 7 de-
cision to the Cubs, who put on a
seven-run rally in the fourth cli-
maxed by Hank Sauer's 37th hom-
er—tops for both leagues. Billy
Loes, pitching with only two days
of rest, was the victim. Andy Paf-
ko hit a grand slam Dodger homer
in a futile cause while Roy Samlley
also homered for Chicago. The
Dodgers also were shakier than
Jello afield, committing lour er-
rors.
In the only other National League
game, Robin Roberts of the Phils
gained his 24th victory by scatter-
ing nine hits to beat the Cards, 3
to 2.
Elsewhere in the American
League, Walt Dropo delivered two
homers to pace the last place Ti-
gers to their fourth straight victo-
ry, 5 to 4, over the Red Sox, and
the Senators ended a seven-game
losing streak by defeating the
White Sox, 4 to 1, on Walt Mas-
terson's four-hitter. Washington al-
so got only four hits but one was
a big two-run triple by Jim Busby
—enough to insure the victory.
There were no other major
league games scheduled.
Thursday's Star
Muscle man Mike Garcia of the
Indians who pitched his third
straight shutout and his 20th vic-
tory of the year, 1 to 0, over the
Athletics, giving up only two hits.
Arrow in Coble
And Rains Hurt
Snyder Phones
SNYDER, Sept. 12—UP—First a
youngster with William Tell ten-
dencies, then some welcome rain
combined to put 500 Snyder tele-
phones out of service Wednesday.
Southwestern Bell Telephone Co.
said an investigation showed that
an overhead telephone cable at
Snyder was somehow pierced by
an arrow.
When water from rain Tuesday
night and Wednesday seeped into
the pierced cable and penetrated
insulation, Snyder telephones be-
ggu going dead a few at a time.
At one time, 500 phones were use-
less.
Truman Black, Snyder manager
for Southwestern Bell, said service
war rapidly restored, but at the
he. ut of the telephone blackout
the hospital and sheriff's office
were temporarily without phones.
Police and fire department com-
munications were not disrupted,
however.
'Unloaded Gun' Kills
REYNOSA, Mex., Sept. 12 UP—
Benito Martinez, 23, placed his .38
caliber pistol against his chest, told
his girl friend, "See, it has no bul-
lets in it," pulled the trigger and
fell over dead. Police said the bul-
let pierced his heart.
Adieson Sap GOP
Policy, Prescription
For Foreign Disaster
KANSAS CITY, Sept. 12—UP—
Secretary of State Dean Acheson
jumped into the national political
campaign Friday after accusing
the Republican party of offering
the nation a "prescription for dis-
aster" in foreign affairs.
The Secretary of State, himself
often attacked from within and
without his party, made a speech
billed as "non-political" before the
national convention of the Interna-
tional Association of Machinists at
Kansas City Thursday night.
But in a major foreign policy ad-
dress, Acheson hotly defended the
Democratic foreign policy and in-
directly swung on Republican pres-
idential candidate Dwight D. Eisen-
hower, Sen. Robert A. Taft of Ohio,
former President Herbert Hoover
and the GOP in general.
The Republican party, Acheson
accused, has tried to hamper the
Democratic administration's own
anti-Communist moves abroad,
while simultaneously urging "dy-
namic, positive and affirmative"
action.
"They have their hands on the
horn and their feet on the brakes,"
he said.
"Our coattails are ragged from
the hands of those who thought
that we showed too much of these
'dynamic' qualities when Greek,
Turkish aid, the Marshall Plan, the
Berlin airlift and other measures
were adopted."
in view of this conflict, Acheson
said, it is hard to understand what
the Republican mean in their "glit-
tering adjectives" on foreign poli-
cy.
But if the GOP means liberation
of enslaved nations by force, Ache-
son said, "this advice would be
neither realistic nor responsible.
"If this is what is meant by being
more 'positive' " he said, "then it
is, in fact, a positive prescription
lor disaster."
It was an obvious jibe at Eisen-
hower for his promise to the recent
American Legion convention that
the U. S. never would reft until
Iron Curtain countries are freed.
Acheson also attacked, without
naming, them, Taft, Hoover and
others who have urged reduction of
land forces in order to concentrate
on defensive air power, citing the
"fallacy of relying solely on re-
talitatory striking power."
State Payroll 43,500
DALLAS, Sept. 12—UP—The Bu-
reau of Census reported that Texas
had 43,500 persons working for the
state government in April, 1952,
with monthly payroll of $8,946,000.
The April, 1952, figures varied
little from the same month last
year, when there were 43,000 state
employes and a monthly pay roll
of $8,643,000

Attorney For Reds
May Be Disbarred
HONOLULU, Sept. 12—UP—At-
torney Richard Gladstein, convict-
ed of contempt for his defense of
the nation's 11 top Communists in
New York last year, faced possible
disbarment or suspension.
Federal Judge J. Frank Mc-
Laughlin Wednesday issued an or-
der against the San Francisco law-
yer, who is scheduled to be re-
leased from Texarkana, Tex., fed-
eral prison Sept. 23 upon comple-
tion of a six-months sentence.
Gladstein was counsel for four of
seven alleged Hawaii Communist
leaders who have been ordered to
trial Sept. 29, on charges of advo-
cating overthrow of the govern-
ment.
McLaughlin's order said Glad-
stein must appear within 20 days
after his release from prison to
show cause why he should not be
disbarred or suspended from prac-
tice in Hawaii because of his con-
viction.
