Cardinals Win Series Final
the eighth and final heat, run
ning behind defending champion
Divio Berruti of Italy.
Carr, a speedster from Arizo
na State University, was the
United States’ main hope of re
capturing the medal lost to Ber
ruti after five consecutive victories
in Olympiads.
Carr nearly missed the trip to
Tokyo. He won the qualifying
race in New York but ran a poor
fourth in the Los Angeles quali
fier. Officials, however, dropped
the No. 3 man in the second race
and selected Carr. No. 3 was Bob
Haynes of Jacksonville, Fla., who
won the gold medal in the 100-
meter dash Thursday.
Shortly before the first round
of the 200-meter dash got under
way in sunshine and temperature
that was in the 70s, Russia’s Elena
Gorchakova smashed the world rec
ord for the women’s javelin on
her first qualifying throw.
Miss Gorchakova heaved the
javelin 204 feet, 814 inches, near
ly nine feet better than the old
mark held by Elvira Ozolina, also
of Russia. Miss Ozolina’s mark j finally scooting under the rail in
was 196-114 while her Olympic
record was 183-8.

ST. LOUIS OP) — Iron man
Bob Gibson, working with only two
days rest, pitched the scrappy St.
Louis Cardinals to their first
world championship since 1946
with a 7-5 victory over the fav
ored New York Yankees in Thurs
day’s crucial seventh Series game.
The rangy right - hander who
once played basketball with the
Harlem Globetrotters broke all
Series strikeout records with a to
tal of 31, including nine in the
finale with big money on the line.
A crowd of 30,346 boisterous
fans roared, trumpets blared and
horns tooted as the Cardinals com
pleted their rags to riches from
seventh place July 24 to the champ
ionship of all baseball at the ex
pense of the proud Yankees.
A tumultous crowd poured out
of the bleachers and surrounded
the happy knot of white - uni
formed Cardinals after Dal Max-
vill snared Bobby Richardson’s pop
for the final out. Maxvill was
warmly embraced by Dick Groat
and then the whole club con
verged on the mound, pounding
the exhausted Gibson on the back.
Gibson needed help from a burly
cop and two special park attendants
to escape from the well-wishers,

kept them from charging down*
tTte steps toward the clubhouse.
Obviously tiring under the heavy
burden of pitching a 10-inning
game in New York Monday after
noon and another complete nine-
inning' job in this one for all the
dough, Gibson staggered a bit
in the ninth. Solo home runs by
Clete Boyer and Phil Linz nar
rowed his lead to two runs but
Manager Johnny Keane never made
a move in a fine tribute to his big
pitcher.
Gibson’s strikeout feast erased
Sandy Koufax’s total of 23 piled
up in last year’s Los Angeles
Dodgers four-game sweep over the
Yanks. It even surpassed the mus
ty old record of 28 set by ancient
Bill Dinneen of the Boston Red
Sox in 1903 in an eight-game Ser
ies.
The victory was a sweet per
sonal triumph for Keane, who had
been reportedly on the brink of
being fired in late season be
fore the Cards started their spurt.
It was equally sweet to Bing
Devine, the general manager who
was let out by the Cards Aug.
17 and later hooked on with the
New York Mets.
The Cards nestled in fourth
place in the National League, 11
games out, on Aug. 23 and still
trailed the Philadelphia Phillies by
7% lenghts as late as Aug. 31.
They won the pennant, of course,
on the last day of the season
and followed it up by going the
route in an exciting Series.
Gibson’s opponent, rookie Mel
Stottlemyre, also was attempting
to come back with two days rest
in his third starting job of the
Series. The 22 - year - old right -
hander left for a pinch hitter in
the fifth after his Yankee defense
let him down in the Cards’ three-
run fourth inning. St. Louis add
ed three more in the fifth, starting
off with Lou Brock’s homer off
A1 Downing, and finished their
scoring with Ken Boyer’s homer in
the seventh.

OUR FUTURE IN COLOR TV LOOKS ROSY
The Color TV market is in full bloom —
and GT&E along with it.
The reason? Our Sylvania subsidiary
has made dramatic advancements in the
performance standards of color TV sets.
In developing these new receivers,
Sylvania drew upon the vast research fa
cilities of GT&E. One result: the Sylvania
“Color Bright 85” picture tube using a
revolutionary new red phosphor that in
creases brightness on the average of 43
percent over the industry standard.
Our Sylvania Electronic Components
Group is one of the two largest suppliers
of receiving tubes and picture tubes . . .
used by 7 out of 10 TV set makers.
As a major factor in all phases of com
munication through sight and sound, it
is small wonder that GT&E has become
one of America’s foremost corporations.
If you’re looking for a young, aggres
sive company with no limit to its growth,
