The Crusaders led at halftime, 6-0 and trailed by only one point going into the last quarter. Syracuse added another TD in the closing seconds to make the score a little .more respectable, but the damage had been done and it enraged Orange coach Ben Schwartzwalder. He was so mad that he held a team meeting Monday arid re vised his starting lineup in an attempt to fire up his forces. Bold Ben sent such stars as center Al Bemiller. end Ken Ericson and halfback Pete Bro kaw to the second unit and moved Bob Stem, Norm Lemieux and John Mackey in their places temporarily. In addition, Schwartzwalder hinted that Davis, •an All-Ameri can halfback, might find himself on the bench if he didn't perk up soon.

He probably will be opposed by Whitey Ford, the veteran left-hander who shut, out the Bucs Saturday. Aroused by the two comebacks victories in New York after their two crushing defeats in the sec ond and third games, the scrappy, Pirates now are 4 to 1 favorites] to win it all. They need only one more triumph in this best-of-sev en baseball series. Manager Casey Stengel would not name his starter at yester day's Yankee workout. He said he wouldn't decide until today between the 31-year-old Ford, a 10-0 winner Saturday, and Bob Turley. a 16-3 victor over Friend last Thursday. ' Stengel hinted there would be some changes in his lineup, but 'refused to come right out and say so. It was expected that Yogi Berra would be in left field, Els ton Howard catching and Clete Boyer on third base. Although Stengel said Mickey Mantle had been told not to work :out because of a strained left groin, the Mick took limited bat ting practice. Stengel said Mantle ,had aggravated the old injury before,Monday's game but would play today. Friend was Manager Danny .Murtaugh's second best starter all season. He wound up with an 18-12 record. Murtaugh took him out for a pinch hitter in the j fourth inning of the second game tat Forbes Field. Trailing 3-1 at the time, Friend had- struck out six and allowed six hits. He had fanned Moose Skowron and Elston Howard twice each. Murtaugh said everybody on the staff, except two : game win ner Vern Law, would be in the bullpen. If Ford starts, Murtaugh's catcher will be Hal Smith in stead of Smoky Burgess. Other wise it will be the same lineup. with Gino Cirholi in left field and Dick Stuart on first base. The batting averages and slug ging figures for the first five games showed some startling con trasts. The Yanks had a team average of .324 to Pittsburgh's .246; had hit" eight homers to the Pirates' one;. and had scored 34 Tuns to the National League's 17.
