Yankees Beat Braves 3-1 In First Game
Of The World Series
New York, Oct. 2. Whitey Ford, a brilliant “Young Pro," outpitched "Old Pro" Warren Spahn today to score the fifth World Series victory of his career and give the New York Yankees à 3-1 triumph over the Milwaukee Braves in the 1957 opener.
The sandy-haired Ford, who will be 29 on Oct 21, allowed the heavy-hit- ting National League Champions only five scattered hita. He didn't give up the Braves' lone run until his teammates, headed by Gerry Coleman, Hank Bauer and Andy Carey, had given him a 8-0 lead.
Irish Goalkeeper Bombarded With Danish Apples
Danes Beaten 2-0
Copenhagen, Oct. 2.
The Republic of Ireland beat Denmark 2-0 to- night in a World Soccer Cup match, considered to be one of the roughest games ever seen in Copenhagen. The Irish goalkeeper, Tommy Goodwin, was bombarded with apples about ten minutes from the end of the match and after the final whistle dozens of young boys invaded the pitch and threw the apples at officials.
Spectators, angered by what they considered to be Irish fouls, tried to rush onto the pitch and only with difficulty did the Police prevent them.
The match was the last in Group One of the European Section of the competition, afready wo, by England, who thus go forward to the finals in Sweden next year.
Republic of Ireland won the first game against Denmark 2-1 in Dublin last year. Their two goals to night came in the second half-Reuter.

But in the fifth Spahn felt the sting of those big Yanke bats.
Coleman started the Yankee fifth with a single his second straight hit - and reached third, on two successive infold outs, Then Bauer rifled Spohn's Arst pitch to the 407-foot ølgn at right centre field for a run- producing double.
In the sixth, the Yankees finished off Spain as they scored their other two runs.
Fielder's Choice
Eston Howard started thist attack with a single with one out. Howard, who had replaced B01 Skowron at first when the latter re-injured his athing back running out a fielder's choice in the first inning, went to second as Yogi Berra walked.
Carey then singled to centre, scoring Howard and sending Berra to third.
Manager Fred Honey of the Braves took out Spahn and ro- placed him with his relief act, right-hander Ernie Johnson. With one strike against him, Coleman laid down
a perfect squeezo bunt to the right of
the mound and Berrn raced home with what turned out to be an insurance, man.
That was the end of the Yankee attack, but it proved enough.
