Tigers take series in 9-3 win
CHICAGO, Oct. 10.—(U.E)—The Detroit Tigers won the 1945 World Series today' when they broke the seventh and deciding game wide open in the first 15 minutes and then coasted to a 9 to 3 victory
over the Chicago Cubs behind the southpaw magic of Hal Newhouser.
The game was billed as a pitching battle between Newhouser, the major league's leading winner, and Hank Borowy, an American league castoff who twice had beaten these Tigers in this classic.
But Borowy lasted just nine pitches as the Bengal bats roared with explosive power and drove him to the showers after facing only three men. And before old Paul Derringer stilled the thunder, the Tigers had chased five runs across the plate and staggered the Cubs irrevocably.
After that the Tigers never let up. building to that lead as they went along and leaving the rest of it to Newhouser. The skinny kid from Detroit didn't let them down, even though he gave the struggling Cubs a high total of 10 hits.
For every time it came to the clutch, the 24-year-old Newhouser had it. He was remembering how the Cubs laced him, 9 to 0, in the first game, before he came back to win the fifth one, 8 to 4. And his heart was riding on every pitch in the chilling air of Wrigley field.
The crowd was against him too, but you couldn’t tell that it bothered him. And every time he got in trouble, he’d blaze that high hard one down the middle.
Yet he had the ball game sewed up even before he went to the mound before a crowd of 41.590 fans who made this the richest and greatest attended series in the history of the classic. He didn’t have to match with and stay with the calm hurling of Borowy, one of the greatest jinxes the Tigers batters ever had faced.
overcast afternoon.
For Skeeter Webb, with the count three and two, belted Hank’s sixth pitch into right field for a
single. And the second Tiger batter, clutch man Eddie Mayo, had to look at only one offering; that one he drove into right field and Webb was jittering around on third base. Roger Cramer was next and after taking a ball, Doc laid a single down the left field foul line which sent Webb scampering home and moved Mayo to second.
That was the end of Borowy.
Paul Derringer ^as next in what was to be a Chicago parade of six pitchers. Hank Greenberg sacrificed ,to Phil Cavaretta, unassisted, pushing Mayo to third and Cramer (Continued on Page Three)

Standing at attention in a cool autumn breeze, all hands of the SC naval training unit honored four men late yesterday afternoon on Bovard field as awards wrere presented to them, for “outstanding and meritorious work.”
Presentations were made by Capt.
S. Y. Cutler, commandant, naval reserve officers’ training corps unit, to Cadet B. W. Huls, Marine Pvt.
H. V. Knupp, A/S R. R. Soderberg, and Cadet T. E. Riddle. Awards consisted of a sword and sword belt, and three leather portfolios, engraved with the recipient’s name. iA stillness crossed Bovard, broken only by the notes of bugles playing “Colors.” All spectators rose as the unit saluted the flag. The NROTC drum and bugle corps paraded before the reviewing stand, and shortly thereafter the honored men stepped to “front and center” for presentations.
All awards were given for extraordinary endeavors to members of the senior class w'ho in their respective units had “by conduct and example contributed to the greatest degree to the development and morale of their men.” ’
First presentation w'as made to Huls, who received the sword in traditional navy fashion. Huls has served as battalion-twmtmander of- ~ the NROTC for the past term. Knupp. Soderberg, and Riddle were next awarded the portfolios. All four men received the honors bestowed upon them in a solemn military ceremony.
Letters of commendation accompanied the prizes in which the four men were “commended for loyalty, cooperation, and leadership.”
Following the official presentations, the men who had distinguished themselves and all officers and non-commissioned officers of the unit stood at attention while the trainees in full dress passed in review. Marines wore green winter service, the navy V-12 specialists were in dress blues, while the NROTC looked snappy in dress blues, white gloves, and rifles.
Leaving Bovard field, the marines led the parade down University avenue.

Union poster rules revealed by committee
In an effort to improve the appearance of the bulletin board and patio of the Student Union, the ASSC Student Union committee has set up regulations concerning the posting of announcements, advertisements, and messages, according to Chuck Brambila, chairman.
Any person or group wishing to use the bulletin board must write up the message, submit their name, phone number, and the length of time they want the announcement posted, to the Student Union committee through the office of the ASSC vice-president.
The committee will post and take down the messages, which may be displayed any length of time. A card file will be kept of all announcements so that the correct persons may be contacted for possible answ’ers.
For posters the same rules apply.
The committee will have charge of the easels. Chairmen of groups will
submit posters with an application But that ’wasnt the story this,to Jackie Boice’s office with the
same information required of messages. Posters will be filed after they have been displayed.
The system was developed after many members of the senate noticed the haphazard manner in which notes were posted.
“The bulletin board is a tradition at SC, and any student has the right to use it. We want Trojans to take advantage of this service, which we feel will be more complete if there is some system,” said Brambila.
Members of the Student Union committee are Brambila, Bill Armbruster, Miss Boice, and Arnold Eddy.
The coeds are at it again. This time they are abetting the Red Cross in its drive to obtain Christmas gifts for hospitalized servicemen. But more and more coeds are needed to make this campus-wide campaign a success.
This campaign will not begin in earnest until the first week of the following term, but interested women should sign up at the Red Cross house, 848 West 37th street, said Corinne Brown, acting chairman of the campaign.
“This is a worthwhile job, and we certainly would appreciate any help that can be offered in this situation by the women on the campus.”
Tag day will also be a project operated by the Red Cross .this year. Those interested in this venture may sign up for it the first day of classes, Nov. 1, although it will not be held until Nov. 8. Signee’s may register their names with a Red Cross representative from 1 to 3 p.m. at the unit’s house.
Plastic cigarette cases, handkerchiefs, small paper books, address books, leather wallets, and other articles will compose the bulk of the articles used to brighten the Christmas boxes.
Bobby Taft, Pat Barr, Bernice Hage, Johna Dunlap, Miriam Thompson, Sally Frank, Selda Nussbaum, and Shelia Connolly are the Red Cross representatives who are soliciting the cooperation of all social fraternities, sororities, dorma-tories, and other campus organizations.
