Dodgers Drop Reds 5-4 Braves Split with Giants
By UNITED PRESS
Thanks to a couple of gritty "old pros" named Carl Furillo and Warren Spahn, the National League pennant race has narrowed down to a two team dogfight Monday to see who gets into the World Series against the New York Yankees—who may clinch the American League flag tonight.
The Cincinnati Redlegs now are virtually out of the N. L. battle as a result of their 5-4 loss to the Brooklyn Dodgers last night on Furillo's dramatic, 10th-inning home run.
Braves Split
That leaves it up to the Dodgers and the Milwaukee Braves, and the Dodgers now lead by one full game—two games in the all-important lost column. The Braves lost ground by dropping the opener of a twi-night bill to the Giants, 7-2, before Spahn avered complete disaster by gaining a 4-1 victory.
The Braves, who lost a half-game in the standings of the day, fell victim to old teammate Johnny Antonelli in their opener. John stopped them last night with six hits, including homers by Bobby Thomson and Johnny Logan, to notch his 17th win. It was the only game won by the Giants in 11 meetings with the Braves at the Polo Grounds this year, and Antonelli couldn't have done it at a more time.
Yank!
The players stay home tonight for the opener of a two-game series against St. Louis while the Braves go to Pittsburgh.
The Yankees will be at Chicago under lights and will send Whitey Ford after the victory that would clinch the Yankees' seventh American League pennant in the last eight years. ___
Faurot May Quit Football
KANSAS CITY, Mo., — (UP) — Don Faurot of Missouri, the inventor of modern split-T football and one of the nation's veteran coaches, apparently is going to call it quits after this season, whether or not his Tigers rise to new heights as expected.
Reports have circulated for almost a year that the greying 54-year-old inventor of the sliding T was going to retire to only one job—that of being athletic director.
Now the word in Big Seven athletic circles is that Faurot plans to announce his retirement from coaching in the near future—maybe as early as this coming Saturday when the Tigers open at home against Oregon State.
Faurou would not comment on the reports. But he said last fall that he would step down as head man if he ever felt he "lost his touch." Last fall, however, he still felt he had it and wanted one more year to prove it.
Faurio doesn't have a contract as a coach although he's been guild-
KU To Alternate Two Full Teams
A controlled scrimage and review session comprised the Kansas football squad's practice yesterday.
Coach Chuck Mather voiced approval of the squad's efforts in last Saturday's full scale scrimmage, but said that the team's talent would be determined in Saturday's season opener with Texas Christian University.
Mather said he plans to send the team through another controlled scrimmage today and then taper off Wednesday and Thursday. He will alternate two full units this season and is busy preparing two teams of about equal ability.
Wally Strauch, starting quarterback last season, is on the doubtful list for the opener. He suffered a knee injury two weeks ago and, although he is working out, will probably not see action against TCU.
Mizzou Team Ready
COLUMBIA—(UP) — Fullback George Cramer, on the strength of his performance in Saturday's scrimmage was in the varsity backfield yesterday as Missouri devoted most of its two-hour drill to ball handling and pass plays.
Indications are that all members of the squad will be ready for the opener with Oregon State Saturday.
Back in uniform for the first time in several days are end Karl Kramer, tackles Bob Lee and Chuck Mehrer and halfback Jerry Curtright.
New Faces For Wildcats
MANHATTAN, — (UP) — Four new faces were in the Kansas State football squad's first team yesterday in the practice session.
Jon Walker moved to right tackle, George Laddish was at right end. Don Martin went to left guard and Tony Weddeo stepped up to right halfback.
The K-Staters meet Oklahoma A. & M. Saturday in their season opener.

Pro's Pace Flag Contenders
Once they gave me the lead, I could afford to take charges."
By United Press
CLEVELAND, O.—(UP)—Cleveland Indians third baseman Al Rosen indicated today that he would drop out of baseball if he were traded, as hinted by Indians general manager Hank Greenberg. Rosen made the statement after Greenberg said yesterday, "Rosen has completely lost his confidence and cannot play baseball in Cleveland."
That was Warren Spahn's explanation today for the manner in which he "blew down" the New York Giants in the last four innings of last night's 4-1 victory that kept the Milwaukee Braves' pennant hopes alive. The Braves had lost the opener of the twi-night double-header to exteammate Johnny Antonelli, 7-2, and would have dropped two full games behind the Brooklyn Dodgers if they lost the nightcap.
But the National League's only active 200-game winner explained he was just "being extra cautious" because of the importance of the game.
Due to an oversight THE JAYHAWK CAFE was left off of the "attendance required" list on the Orientation Week schedule. It is not too late to become acquainted with this tradition filled establishment of Paul, "the students friend" Sinclair, however.

On your first visit to THE HAWK, as it is known among the "older" students, you will probably thing that the waiters, who serve the customers with blinding speed, are speaking in some strange tongue when they call in your order. Well, they are! This language is A JAYHAWK TRADITION. This marvelous language enables the employees of THE HAWK to handle your order with great efficiency and also to completely confuse those who do not master it soon in their collegiate career.
Attention "Frosh"
The mural-lined walls look down on 21 spacious booths where students have enjoyed good food and their favorite beverages for many years.
The food, of course, is excellent. Many students have been known to live for years eating nothing but food from THE HAWK. In fact, some students prefer this food over that served in their organized houses. Perhaps this is because the cost is so low and many of them take advantage of the meal tickets offered at the marvelously high saving of $10\%$.
Here are some of the most often used words and phrases of "Jayhawkese." The phrase "pour one" in Jayhawkese is translated "one cup of black coffee" in English. "Pour a crowd" denotes three cups of coffee, "a bridge," four. "White one" is "one glass of milk." While this is a sketchy introduction it will give you some idea of what you will hear in this eating place.
Perhaps a word about the owner is in order. Paul Sinclair has been in THE HAWK for 11 years and knows what the student want and tries to give it to them. He is called "the student's friend" because he always tried to help the student. You will recognize him by his ancient white buck shoes (a left over from his student days) and his friendly smile as he takes your money at the cash register (he only smiles at the sight of money).
In addition to the fine food and drink, THE HAWK also has magazines, drug and sundry items all priced to save the student money.
THE HAWK is open from 7:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. daily and is very conveniently located at 14th and Ohio, close enough for midmorning snacks or midafternoon refreshment.
We are very sorry that you were not briefed on this establishment as you should have been during orientation week but drop in this afternoon, or tomorrow for sure, and see for yourself what a fine place THE HAWK is . . . and be sure to say "hello" to Paul.

Furillo A Hero
A hum one day, a hero the next,
but for today anyway Carl Furillo
was top man in Brooklyn's pennant
rush.
"I couldn't even get the ball out of the infield in our first game with Cincinnati and tonight looka'm," he said.
"How are you gonna figure this game of baseball?" grinned the jubilant Furillo moments after his 10th inning homer gave the Dodgers a 5-4 victory over the Redlegs last night and lengthened their National League lead to a full game over the Milwaukee Braves.
Furillo drove in three of the Dogers' runs last night, owns a total of 20 homers for the season and now has contributed the winning hit in five of Brooklyn's last eight victories.
