Phillies Win First Flag In 35 Years
New York, Oct. 2.—(U,P)—T he fuzzy-cheeked Philadelphia Phillies, winners of their team's first National league championship after 35 barren years, were 2 to 1 betting underdogs in their impending World series with the venerable New York Yankees.
But these Phils were used to having the odds, and the fates, against them.
Leading the league by 7½ games at the start of last week's play, they agonized as this margin was slowly chopped down. Then, in the final game of the season Sunday, needing to win to stave off a pennant tie, they suddenly rose from their defeat-nocked depths.
They battled the more experienced Brooklyn Dodgers for nine undeci-sive innings, then won the game, 4 to 1, in the 10th inning when Dick Sisler hit a home run with two men on base.
The Phillies may be underdogs when the big show opens in Shibe Park at Philadelphia on Wednesday, but Manager Eddie Sawyer says, "I have to laugh off those odds because think of what they were against us when we started this pennant race back in April."
In that glorious 10-inning, 4 to 1 triumph over the Brooklyn Dodgers—which was achieved yesterday on Sisler's three-run hero, Robin Roberts' five-hit pitching with the clutch touch, and Richie Ashburn's "out-of-this-world" throw from centerfield to home plate—the Phillies proved once again they can go with the best when the battle is joined.
They had to win to keep the National league flag race from winding up in a two-way tie for first place and necessitating a three-game pennant playoff.
Had they lost Sunday, the Dodgers would have been odds-on favorites sweep through the playoff series. Sawyer's kids, who saw just in

time that their greatest opportunity was skidding away, played as never before.
WOLFSON'S 743 Mass.
Looked on as just another team in the rejuvenated National Football league, the jarring Giants from New York pulled one of the professional game's greatest upsets Sunday by stopping the Browns, 6 to 0, at Cleveland. It was the first time in the five-year history of the Cleveland club that it had been held scoreless.
Hall of Fame occupant, George Sisler, the old Brownie first baseman. Father watched son at this moment with mixed emotion, because the elder Sisler is head of the vast Dodger scouting enterprises.
Roberts, pitching in his third game in five days, and winding up with a brilliant five-hitter that gave him his 20th triumph of the season, was almost tired enough to drop when he stepped to the plate to start the 10th. But he shot a single to center and Eddie Waitkus followed with another. Ashburn's bunt attempt went awry and Roberts was forced at third, but his contribution already had been made. Up to the plate stepped Sisler, a son of a baseball
Smashing the ball to the opposite field, the left handed Philly outfielder landed a home run into the left field stands that for all practical purposes ended a great pitching battle between Roberts and Dodger Don Newcombe. The three-run homer broke a 1-all tie, but had it not been for Ashburn's great throw a few moments earlier, Sisler never would have been batting.
Schnellbacher Helps Giants To Upset Cleveland, 6 To O
New York, Oct. 2—(U.P.)—Coach Paul Brown admitted today "it could have been worse" as he summed up the defeat of his razzledazzle Cleveland Browns by the slow-footed but stubborn New York Giants.
Otto Schnellbacher and Tom Landry, who played for the New York Yankees of the A.A.C. last year, were the men handed most of the credit for stopping Ollo Graham, the Brown's ace passer. Roaming the Giants' defensive backfield, they knocked down pass after pass and also did a good job of bottling up the Brown's famed pass-snatching end, Mac Speedie.
Los Angeles Rams dumped the San Francisco Forty-niners, 35 to 14.
A crowd of 25,008 looked on in anguish at Washington as the Steelers upended the Redskins by the simple expedient of stopping their pass-pitching duo of Sammy Baugh and Harry Gilmer. Between them, Baugh and Gilmer completed only nine out of 26 aerials against the defense-minded Steelers.
The Packers' victory, turned in before 24,893 happy fans at Green Bay, was their first over the Bears since 1947. Behind 7 to 3 at half-time, the Packers turned on the steam in the second half and all but ran the Bears right off the field. A 93-yard runback of a kickoff by Vitamin Smith for a Los Angeles touchdown highlighted the Rams' victory over the Forty-niners at San Francisco. Smith's scamper broke a 14-14 deadlock in the third period and the Rams went on from there to rout their West Coast rivals.
It was "upset day" elsewhere around the league Sunday as the Pittsburgh Steelers surprised the Washington Redskins, 26 to 7, and the "new" Green Bay Packers slammed the Chicago Bears, 31 to 21. In the only "form" game, the
