■ROOKIE GETS I “BIG CHANCE” a t St Louis, Oct. I.—(U.R) The bordline between victory and defeat in B the world series is usually thinly(l etched by inconsequential events t , unpremediated before the first ball is thrown. This world series, 28th of the variety, between the Philadelphia . Athletics and St. Louis Cardinals. t promises to hinge on the right arm e of Paul Derringer, rookie, slated to pitch the opening game for the 4 National league champions. Gabby street virtually is gambling the whole series on this big raw-boned Kentucky lad who wasn't sure of a regular job with 3 the Cardinals until a month or so after the season opened. If Derr- ( inger fails, the Cards’ chances will drop like the last rose of summer. it has been 22 years since a rookie pitched the opening game t of a world series and only once before has a first-year man drawn the 1 all-important first day assignment. Babe Adams, rookie of 1909, pitched the first game for the Pittsburgh Pirates that year and defeated Detroit, I to 1. He later won two more games and the series for the 3 Pirates. i Cardinal supporters optimistically 1 hope that Derringer will follow in - Adams' footsteps, but surely no 1 rookie ever raced a more difficult f assignment in drawing as his ops ponent, Bob Grove, Athletics' ace, who won 31 games and lost only 4 during the American league season. Although the Cards’ beat Grove one game last year they were able to make only five runs off him in 19 innings and as far as records are concerned he's a better pitcher this year than he was in 1930. Tough spots, however, are not - new to Derringer. Even while he was struggling for a regular berth I with tbe Cards, Gabby Street shoved him in against Dazzy Vance, Brooklyn ace. in his first big assignment during a crucial game of the opening eastern invasion. Did Derringer mind? He liked the task so well he shut out the Robins and triumphed, 1 to 0. Derringer has blossomed into a ■ great pitcher almost qvernight. Just five years ago he was pitching for a semi-pro team in the West Virginia coal region. A St. Louis scout signed him and he reported for a tryout in the spring training season of 1927. His forte was speed and when he was called on to show his stuff he made up his mind to show his best fast ball. > He wound up. raised his left leg high in the air and put all his brute • strength into his windup. But something happened and his pitcli floated lazily up to the plate. Over-anxious, lie had caught the , spike of his l<nt shoe in the webbing of his glove and utterly ruined his momentous preparations for a | dazzling exhibition. A few days ‘ later, Derringer had a railroad ticket for one of the many CardI inal farms. But he learned about pitching and came back. During the season of 1930 be won 23 games and lost 11 for the Rochester International league club. The Cards reclaimed him. He had an injured thumb and blood poisoning early the past seas on. but he overcame all handicaps to make good in his first year in the majors, winning 18 games and losing 8. Once during the season he had a run of 33 scoreless innings. He beat every club in the league at least once. Derringer weighs 210 pounds and is 6 feet, 3 inches in height. He was born at Springfield, Ky., but now lives at West Frankfort, 111. He has good control. blinding speed and a fast-breaking curve. I ST. PAUL WINS SERIES OPENER St. Paul. Minn, Oct. I—(UP1 —(UP) — One game already won, St. Paul will meet Rochester's Intenmtional League champions this afternoon at Lexington park in the second game of the little World Series. Oscar Iboettger, first baseman for the American association team, ended an even pitching battle in yesterday’s clash when he hit a home lun with bases full in the eighth ining. The score was 4 to 0. Carmen Hill, Rochester pitcher, came- into the box for the eighth after allowing the Staints only four scattered hits. Betts and Davis made hits. Saltgraver walked, filling the bases. Roettger struck the ball over the left field fence. Roettger led with three hits for the day. Delker made two for Rochester. Ray Starr, pitching ace for the Red Wings, and John Murphy for I the Saints and probably will be the selections of manager William Southworth and Lefty Leifield for thir respective teams. Fair weather was forecast for today's game. —o : Otto Weis is confined to his •' home with illness.

SOX TRIM CUBS IN FIRST GAME Chicagq, Oct. 1 —(UP)— The White Sox held a one game advantage over their National League oponents, the Chicago Cubs today as the two teams lined up for the second game of the city series to decide supremacy of Chicago’s two major league baseball teams. Behind Red Faber's brilliant hurling yesterday, the Sox won a 9 to 0 victory, scoring seven runs in the sixth inning and two more in the seventh. The veteran Faber allowed only five hits and only one Cubs batsman got as far as third base. Four Cubs pitchers, including Charlie Root, who often has led his team to victory, were knocked from the box by the Sox onslaught. Yesterday's game drew a crowd of 16,641 and receipts amounted to $18,607.50 of which the players will get $9,489.83. During the first five innings of tlie game, Faber and Root staged a pitching duel. But while the veteran White Sox hurler continued throughout the remaining innings, Root went to pieces after Sinead Jolley hit a home run with one man on base in the sixth and started a seven run rally. He was relieved by Jadkie May before the inning was ended and May was relieved by Warneke in the seventh. Although he held the Sox scoreless for one and a third inning, Warneke was releived by Sweetland at the start of the ninth. Only three Cubs got hits off Fabei. English and D. Taylor each got two ami Barton counted one.
