It was the city's biggest celebration since V-J Day. The few impartial observers around said it put to shame a similar celebration in Brooklyn two years ago.
They nearly tore the airport apart when Manager Fred Haney, pitching hero Lew Burdette and the other Yankee killers brought back Milwaukee's first world series championship.

920 had started and won three games in the same series and Burette's two-runs-in-27 innings, apped by $ 24_{1/3} $ consecutive scoreless frames, rivaled anything ineries competition since Christy lathwateon pitched three shutouts against the Philadelphia athletics in 1905.
Second-guessers there were, of course. What happened to Stengel's opposed magic touch? And what opened to the famed Yankee dease? The players who never are opposed to tighten up committed tree official errors and three others
of commission in the defensive seventh game.

The 7-5 Milwaukee victory in the fourth game was the turning point.
This was the game Eddie Mathews won with his 2-run 10th-inning homer and it was Mathews who struck the 2-run double Thursday that put the Braves on the glory road to stay. It kayoed Don (perfect game) Larsen and gave Manager Fred Haney what both managers were striving desperately for in the decisive game—the lead.

Big 8 Squads Should Win 4
OU-Texas Contest Heads Non-Conference Schedule
With KU and Iowa State squaring off in the only conference game this weekend, a look around the circuit finds Big Eight squads favored in four of six games.
Bud Wilkinson said the ball has bounced great for his squad the last four years and he won't cry if they lose to Texas Saturday. Only a Texan could predict a loss for the Sooners. Unless Wilkinson forgets to take the team down South there's little doubt or the outcome of the game at the Cotton Bowl at Dallas.
This will be the 52nd meeting of the two teams. This time Wilkinson will be facing one of his former pupils, Darrrell Royal, the new Texas coach. Royal was field general for Wilkinson's all victorious 1949 squad which won in the Sugar Bowl, 35-0. The Texas Steers come into this game sporting a 2-1 record.
Kansas State will be heading for the Sunshine state this weekend to play College of Pacific of Stockton, Calif., in what should be a real battle. The grid guessers give Bus Mertes' Wildcats the edge over COP.
The game should be quite a test for the Wildcats who have a 2-1 record. The Tigers have soundly defeated all three opponents they've met this season.
Wildcats To Get Test
Last week's Jayhawker foe, Colorado, will play host to the Arizona Wildcats. The Golden Buffs are expected to climb back into the win column in this game. Coach Dal Ward has been giving his squad heavy defensive workouts in an attempt to solve their main problem.
The Cowboys have gained almost as many yards through the air as on the ground. Oklahoma State has a 2-1 record, while Tulsa has lost all three of its games.
Arizona has a 1-1 record while Colorado has a 1-1-1 mark. The Buffs will rely on the Big Eight's two top ground gainers, Bob Stransky and Eddie Dove.
The Big Eight's newest member, Oklahoma State, is favored to win from their arch rival. Tulsa, in the 39th clash of these two teams at Stillwater. A Parents' Day crowd of more than 20,000 is anticipated.
SMU Favored Over Tigers The Cotton Bowl is the scene of the Missouri-SMU game at Dallas Friday night. SMU is favored to defeat the Tigers. A victory would boost their season record to 2-1. Missouri now has a 1-1-1 mark.
This year marks the debut for both team's coaches, Frank Broyles for Missouri and Bill Meek for the Mustangs. Meek is a former K-State grid coach.
Nebraska is rated undredrog to the Pittsburgh Panthers. This is no surprise considering that midweek found the Nebraskans with half their team out with injuries and flu. Head coach Bill Jennings may be faced with the same problem that Chuck Mather was faced with last Saturday at Boulder, having only two quarterbacks to rely on.
Coach Bud Wilkinson's career record is now 90 victories, seven defeats and three ties in regular season play for a .927 percentage.
In national competition the Big Seven conference won two firsts, two seconds, two thirds and a fourth in one school year.
KU Runners Seek No.28
Kansas' cross country squad meets Missouri for the 22nd time at 10 a.m. Saturday in Lawrence. The Jayhawkers will be trying to run their string of consecutive conference dual victories to 28.
KU will be far from top strength as two members of the squad are on the disabled list. Tom Skutka, a sophomore who upset captain Jerry McNeal in the first time trials is still recovering from the flu. His winning time in the trials was 14:51.8—a new course record.
Coach Bill Easton thinks his charges will win, but still points out that "Missouri is Missouri and there is always a chance for an upset."
Missouri will be led by Jim Sanders. Easton has high words of praise for Sanders. However, little else is known of the team. Their team is Sanders, Wayne Shiveley, Bill Crum, Ben Cooper, John Graham, Jack Breeden, and Cecil Long
Easton's seven runners will be McNeal, Barry Crawford, Bob Harrison, Clig Cushman, Don Greenlee, Verlyn Schmidt and Brian Travis.
The meet will start on the baseball diamond outside of the football stadium. The three-mile course will wind over the Campanile hill, behind Carruth-O' Leary, along Memorial Drive and down past Potter Lake.
"It would be nice if many of the fraternities and sororities along with the organized houses could be on hand to cheer the boys on," Easton said. "It used to be a custom, and one that helped the team a lot."
Sixteen radio stations have joined the KU sports network for the broadcast of the KU-Iowa State football game Saturday.

Clendon Thomas Ready To Make Trip To Texas With Oklahoma Sooners
NORMAN, OKLA—(UP)—Oklahoma's football squad spent an hour yesterday practicing against the Texas offense and also working on polishing its offensive plays.
Right halfback Clendon Thomas, who returned Wednesday after a flu attack, ran in the workout and will make the trip to Dallas for
Saturday's game with Texas. Only tackle Benton Ladd, who has a bruised back, was on the doubtful list.
The Sooners will fly today to Fort Worth, where they will stay at the Texas Hotel overnight and travel by bus to Dallas Saturday. Coach Bud Wilkinson's traveling squad will have 44 players.
