Not that we were surprised at the outcome because -we expected something of the, sort. - The only surprising thing was ,the closeness of the opener. The great fight put up by Duro cher's bums (and we're not using the term in any .affectionate man ner) should really. go down in baseball annals as one .of . the .grand .accomplishments in recent years. Here was a team that got all the -breaks during the year, bullied and bluffed its way to the pennant in a way that brought major league baseball down to the low" level of a second rate sand lot loop. • • And yet,' it haci the nerve to think it could beat Joe McCarthy's nine In the autumn classic. Much as we hate to say anything nice about the Durocoer outfit (yes, you've guessed it; we think' they should be barred ,from organized baseball), we're forced to admit their fighting quality. They did better than expected. The only reason for the ,3-2: score is. the long vacation the American League entry ,has enjoyed since clinching the pennant in April, or was it May?
