The cavalcade of sports is on the air.

Gillette presents the World Series.

This afternoon we bring you the fifth game between the champions of the American and

National League, the New York Yankees, and the St. Louis Cardinals from Sportsman's Park in St. Louis.

As at all series games for the past five seasons your radio host is the Gillette safety

razor company which broadcast banaline sports events such as the Kentucky Derby

football ball games and major boxing bouts your entertainment month in and

month out and this is Red Barber with Bob Elson and Bill Corum on deck to give

you a clear accurate words-eye picture of every

players it's played. Right now, down on the floor, the Sportsman's Park, the Yankees are

finishing their infield workout. And as soon as they taper off from that, the groundkeepers

will take over, and then the ball game itself in roughly 14 minutes. I know you want to know

who will be the pitches, and you won't be surprised at all. It's the two big right-handers, the strong men, the aces. Spud Chandler is coming back for his second time. He pitched in one in the opener. Chandler, who won 20 games and lost four in the American League, who is one and two all told in World Series competition.

What Cooper is coming back to the second time, he's the only winner for the Cardinals so

far this fall classic, and Cooper against the Yankees in the World Series is a game and a game.

He lost one last year, and of course, he won this year, pitching magnificently in a very dark

and grieved hour.

Cooper won 21 in law state in the regular season.

So the two big right-handers, the strong men are going to go.

For the Yankees, they're going back to the batting order just as they had it against Cooper, which was in game too.

That means Cressetti, leading off at short.

Bud Mathini gets his second starting chance in right.
