Burdette, the Yankee killer of
1957, did it with his bat as well
as his right arm Thursday as
he won his fourth straight
World Series game.
The rawboned gent from the

hit • 3•run homer during a rec

the first inning and the Braves
made it two in a row in a 13.5
romp.

Blaik Calls Halfbacks
Best He Has Coached

Shackling one of the most explosive and dangerous halfback tandems in the nation , Navy Harriers Boast
looms as a major objective tomorrow when Penn State's football team meets West Point'
at Alichie Stadium.

All-American Bob Anderson and Captain Pete Dawkins form the dazzling combination
which has been called by Army's veteran Coach Blaik, "the best pair of halfbacks
17 years at the Point." * * * * * *
Theie is probably nothing
about this versatile pair that can
be written that hasn't been writ
ten before According to reports
from the Point, they can do just
about everything with a football.
Anderson is the more widely
known of the duo, mainly be
cause of his All-American se
lection last year in his first
varsity season—a rarity for any
collegian. Blaik has even com
pared the 6-2, 205-pound speed
demon to the immortal Glenn
Davis, one of the Academy's
all-time greats.
"Ile's Al my's finest sophomore
since Glenn Davis," the West
Point decon remarked last year.
"In style, you might call him a
rocs bet wecn Da v is and Doc
Blanchard (the other member of
the famed Mr. Inside—Mr. Out
side Ar my wartime power
house
It's no wonder Anderson is be
ing compared with Davis. Last
year he smashed Davis' school
u , ,hing record with 083 yards for
a 6 4 average per trip. That was
rood enough for third place
among the nation's ground-gain
ing leaders
But Anderson went even
further in the touchdown par
ade, wracking up 14, two less
than the country's leader, Leon
Burton of Arizona State.
-Anderson's biggest assets :.re his
speed and maneuverability. He
can do the 100 in 10 flat and has
left many ambitious defensive
men lying on their fanny in the
wake of a swivel-hipped touch
down gallop And what makes
him even more dangerous is his
ability of going through the mid
dle of the line just as easy as
going around it. (lie proved that
against Penn State last year.)
Dawkins is also a speed mer
chant who can match Anderson
when it comes to broken field
running. Last year he ranked
6th in the nation in touchdowns
with 11. Two of those TDs were
scored in Army's 27.13 win
over the Lions.

streak snapped in a jittery first
inning. But 42 minutes later
when the Braves finally were re
tired in their first time at bat, he
didn't have a care in the world.
The Braves wound up with 15
hits and the Yanks had only 7.
Not since the 1921 New York
Giants scored eight times in the
seventh inning of a Series game
had the Yanks squirmed in such
misery as they did in that long
first frame.
First Bob Turley, their 21-game
winning ace, and then Duke Maas
felt the raw power of the world
champions' bats before Johnny
Kucks finally ended it.

Burdette, the three-time win
ner in last year's Milwaukee tri
umph, was the first pitcher to win
four in a row from the same club
since the first series was played
way back in 1903.
The Braves routed Turley be
fore he could retire more than
one man. Billy Bruton's lead
off homer on a 3-2 pitch set
the pace and everybody pitched
in.
Red Schoendienst bounced a
double past Bauer to the right
field fence
Turley managed to blow a third
strike past Eddie Mathews. That
was the first and last man he was
to retire. Hank Aaron worked him
for a walk, watching slow break
ing stuff miss the plate, and Wes
Covington singled to center, driv
ing home Schoendienst.
Out of the dugout came Man
ager Casey Stengel. Without de
lay he waved to the bullpen where
Maas had been heating up.
The Duke got Frank Torre on
,a fly to left but walked Del Cran
dall on a 3-2 pitch, loading the
bases. The joint was jumping
when Johnny Logan singled
sharply to left, knocking in both
Aaron and Cdvington for a 4-1
lead.
Burdette, who fancies himself
quite a hiller, strolled to the
plate for a look at the stuff
Maas was throwing. He waited
for one pitch, a strike, and then
swung. The ball sailed over the
left field barrier at about the
355-foot mark. AU of a sudden
it was 7-1.

Captain Dick Winter, Frank Young, Brad Smith, Leslie
Palmer and Torn Monaghan are
all back for their third varsity
season. Last fall, Winter was sick
and did not run.

Other returning varsity Middies
are Bob Kunkle (7th), Palmer'

(16th), and Chico Chavez (20th).
Up from last year's Plebe team
which lost 22-37 to the Lion cubs
are Bill Kiggins and Bernal d
Fleming. Kiggins—a Greensburg
product—won the 2.7-mile test
over the Naval Academy course
last fall. Fleming placed ninth.
Denny Johnson (2nd) and Herm
Weber (4th) are the only return

Two years ago, Moran, Kerr
and Schoenebeck finished in a
3-way tie for first place, giving
the Lions a 25.30 edge.

into the record books, uncovered
the news that it was the first
homer by a pitcher since Bucky
Walters of Cincinnati in 1940 and
the fifth in all series competition.
Another search of the musty
record revealed the first inning
had topped the old high of six
runs by the 1912 Giants against
Boston. Of course, the high for any
inning still is the 10 scored by the
Philadelphia A's against the Chi
cago Cubs in 1919.
The only significant injury was
to the pride of the Yankees, who
were happy to escape from Mil
waukee with their uniforms.
There will be an open date to
day for travel, although both
clubs flew to New York immedi
ately after the game. The series
will be renewed Saturday at the
Yankee Stadium. At this stage it
is doubtful that the caravan will
return to County Stadium.
