Why did the Dodgers win?
I should answer the question, after my brazen prediction Oct. 1 in this column that those lovable Bums would walk away with all the World Series marbles.
The White Sox were confident they would win the series, and erase the stain of the Black Sox.
The Sox took the Series opener 11-0. Did this break the spirit of the Bums? Not a chance.
"If we lost 2-1, we'd eat our hearts out," said veteran outfielder Duke Snider, who had set a series record by committing two errors in the rout.
Fans and sportswriters said it couldn't be done. "They wondered when the 'luck' would run out.
BUT IT WASN'T luck at all. With the situation as it was, those daffy Dozeers couldn't possibly lose.
CHARLIE NEAL AND Johnny Podres led the Dodgers to a 4-3 second-day victory, and then it was off to sunny southern California.
"But 11-0, heel we just got bead and the best thing to do is grin and bear it," he added.
The White Sox were confident bright sun, they didn't like the infamous left-field screen in the Coliseum, and they didn't like 92,000 howling Californians watching them
They lost two more games before they snapped out of it. The Dodger youngster, Larry Sherry, handcuffed the Sox hitters and the old pro, Gil Hodges, knocked the game-winning homer as the Dodgers took the fourth game 5-4.
The Sox "hung by a thread," according to a Los Angeles headline writer, but they only put off the inevitable for two more days by winning the fifth game 1-0.
WHITE SOX PLAYERS and fans breathed a sigh of relief as they left the "snake pit," better known as the Dodgers' home park.
But the White Sox did too much whining about adverse playing conditions. The Dodgers had to prove once and for all that they are the best team. They made the long trip back to Chicago and administered the last humiliating blow before the die-hard hometown fans. The score was 9-3 and the Sox were never in it.
Was there reason to fear the speed of Aparicio and Landis, the power of Kluszewski, the airtight infield or the tough pitching of the Sox?
No reason at all. The Dodgers didn't sweat it. They went out and played ball. And they won.
The Dodgers may have moved across the country, but they're still the same dizzy Bums of Ebbets Field.
MEL ALLEN GOT a little excited as the final series game ended, and he shouted that the Brooklyn Dodgers had done it again.
It was a perfectly natural mistake. The money may be in California, but the tradition is in Brooklyn, and L.A. has a long way to go to match it.
A word of consolation is in order for the losers. To The Giants, Braves, White Sox and even the Yankees:
Wait till next year.
According to a WRA point system, women participating in intramurals of other sports earn points. House or dormitory teams earning the most points during the school year get the Sweepstakes cup.
Some bowlers think they should be getting points because bowling is a sport and because many KU women compete in bowling tournaments on campus.
"Some houses have several women who bowl well but few women who are good in basketball or other sports in WRA intramurals. If women in the bowling leagues would get WRA points for their houses, they would have a fairer chance to win the cup." Polly Smith, Madison, Wis., senior, said.
Several bowlers in the KU Women's Bowling League think they should receive points toward the Sweepstakes Cup awarded annually by the Women's Recreational Association.
Women Bowlers Request Points For WRA Cup
Jo Anna Challman, Galva, Iowa, graduate student, echoed her statements. "Women should be entitled to a chance to earn points through bowling in some way. If the WRA doesn't give points to women in the leagues, it should set up its own bowling intramurals. Bowling is no different from any other sport."
In the Twilight League, Tom Hampton rolled the high ten and 30 but his team, the Pin Hunters remained stationed in the basement with a 0-8 record.
The Fraternity Star League started its second week of bowling last night with Fred Leport rolling the high ten and Bob Roulier rolling the high 30. Alpha Tau Omega #1 rolled both team highs.

The 4 B's rolled both the team highs, yet Sigma Chi took the league's first place to make it one confused night.
The sleepers sealed up both the Oread league team highs to hold down the first place standing. Roger Tabor, a member of the Keglers, rolled the high ten and 30.
