Giants Edge Tribe Mays Saves Game NEW YORK, Sept. 29 (IP) Dusty Rhodes’ 270-foot pinch home run with, two men on base in the tenth inning won a dramatic World Series opener for the New York Giants today, 5-2, after a truly sensational catch by Willie Mays and tremendous relief pitch ing by Marv Grissom blunted Cleveland threats. Rhodes, a sensational pinch hit ter in the Giants’ pennant march, barely reached the right field stands, bouncing off the hands of a fan and rolling back onto the field as the umpire signaled a home run. Cleveland had been threatening all through the, late innings, leav ing 13 men on base, while Gris som escaped by the thinnest of margins. In the Giant tenth, after Don Mueller; struck out, Mays worked Lemon. for .a -walk.-As Lemon FOR A BETTER PENN STATE STATE COLLEGE, PA.. THURSDAY MORNING. SEPTEMBER 30, 1954 By ANN LEH Her election last Wednesday was nullified by the committee on Sunday because it failed to com ply “with the spirit of the code.” Speaking for the committee, -Chairman Ernest Famous said: “I do verify the legality of this elec tion. It was conducted in the best interest and spirit of the elec tions code.” J Rudolph Lutter, organizer of the new University Party, was nominated against Miss Delle- Donne. In the vote tally, how ever, he received no votes. Miss DelleDonne received 20 of 21 bal lots cast. There was one absten tion.

With Mays on second, Mana ger A 1 Lopez ordered Lemon to pass Thompson intentionally, set ting the stage for a possible dou ble play. Rhodes, who delivered 15 pinch hits in 45 trips during the regular season, crossed him up. It was the same Mr. Rhodes who Manager Leo Durocher 'was going to start in left field before he finally decided to stick with the veteran Monte Irvin.- The throat-clutch/ng finish, however, didn’t dim the lustre of Mays’ magnificent catch on Vic Wertz’ 450-foot smash to deep center in the eighth.

' Wertz already had three hits, including a two-run triple off Sal Maglie in the first inning, when he came to bat in the eighth, with the score tied at 2-2. Larry Doby had walked and A 1 Rosen had singled. The baldish first baseman, picked up from Baltimore early in June, slammed reliefer Don Liddle’s fourth pitch far and away to deep center field. Mays took one sight on the ball, turned his back and raced pell mell toward the four-foot wall in front of the bleachers. Just when it seemed the exuberant Negro lad must smash into the wall, he put out his hands to grab the ball without a look toward the plate. (Ccmtmued. on page six) By MIKE MILLER McMeekin Hits Move John McMeekin, elected State Party vice-clique chairman last night, when informed of the new party, said “this move is obvious ly designed to further Lutter’s personal gains.” McMeekin said he was expressing his own thoughts, not those of his party. McMeekin said he hoped stu dents attracted to the new party will remember that Lutter was unable to “make good” in the State and Lion Parties. “If this move is to help student government it may have success,” McMeekin said, “but I fail to ac cept this point of view in the light of Lutter’s previous actions.” “Gordon Pogal, Lion Party clique chairman, could not be reached for comment. 3 Lutter said he did not wish to indulge in political mud-slinging. He said he felt McMeekin’s state ment was “uncalled for and mere ly an attempt to cash in on pub licity.” Actions to Speak for Party Lutter said he would let the future actions of the University Party speak for him. “The University Partv was formed,” Lutter said, -'“because of the deplorable state of campus politics last year and this year.” “The practice of clique chair men handpicking candidates for class and all-University elections is just one of the many facets of the present political system that must be changed,” Lutter con tinued. I “I refer specifically to the form ing of blocs of support for clique supported candidates which no individual candidate can hope to overcome,” Lutter said. He said the University Party will wholeheartedly support pop ular election of clique chairmen (Continued on page eight) Dean to Attend French Talks Eric A.
