Fitting Reward For Hero is the lusty buss bestowed on Dick Sisler by his wife at the Warwich hotel in Philadelphia last night, where the Philadelphia Phils celebrated the winning of their pennant yesterday. And no one deserved recognition more than Sisler whose three-run homer in the 10th broke Brooklyn's back and put the Phils into the World Series with the Yankees.
