FRISCH LEADS CARDINALS TO TIGERS'LAIR St. Louis Arrives At Detroit; Starting Hurler Uncertain Detroit, Oct. 2— (U.R) —Frankie 1 Frisch. Just a little jittery and I needing a shave, brought his in- 1 trepid St. Louis Cardinals to Detroit today to play the Tigers in the world series which starts at ■ Navin field Wednesday. The Cards ceme here on an all- ! pullman special which was run as j. the second section of the regular overnight Wabash train. Frankie,' the New Yorker who was the. sparkplug of the Cards in their blistering National league pennant drive, was the first off the train. •Nope. I don’t know a thing/ about my starting pitcher,” he said. “I don't know who it will be and more than that I don't j know who won't get the job.” Wae there a 50-50 chance that it would be Dizzy Dean? "Os course It might he Diz. But I'm on the level. I don't know now and I won't decide until tomorrow and you can bet a week's pay on that." "I'm putting on a practice at 1:30.” Frisch said. "Yes, prob-I

ably will last two hours." Frankie said that ‘‘some of the ; boys" were still a bit tired after | their long, hectic drive to the j pennant, but that most of them j just "took it in their stride." Frisch seemed drawn and nerv- i our but he insisted that "I never felt better in my life." A battery of photographers bar-1 ricaded the station platform and herded Frankie, Diz and Daf Dean,; old Daily Vance and some more into a group picture which will be, captioned "Cards wave greeting I to Detroit fans." Then the players climbed into cabs and were sirened to their, hotel by a brace of motorcycle cons. By all logic, betting odds, and general probabilities, the wot Id ■ series between the American and J National league pennant winners; should have been a fight involving Mickey Cochrane's Tigers and Memphis Bill Terry's Giants. But the Giants, with the pennant theirs for little more than , the asking, did a spectacular nose ' dive, and Frisch's Cardinals. whiffing the heady perfume of world series gold, went to town. They ' won the National league title by two full games and here they are. 1 Deans and all. ready to come to 1 grins with Cochrane and his inspired band. The chances for a memorable ' series are bright. For one thing. < it should be a great pitching ' carnival. For the Cards there are the Deans. Dizzy and Daffy, great-' est brother pitching act ever I, known to the game. Along about ( the time the Cincinnati Reds and ( Brooklyn Dodgers were still naive enough to think they had al' chance. Dizzy, the elder Dean. I. “allowed" that between them Mrs.:' Dean's boys would account for 45 . games. 1 1 The prediction was kicked : around in rollicking good humor, but Diz kept on insisting that they'd get at least 45. They did. ( Forty nine, to be exact — 3b for Diz and 19 for Daf. There are a few other St. Louis pitchers, but they might as well be non-exist-ant so far as the fans here are' concerned. On the Detroit side there is one | ace pitching performer. Lynwood . ("How'm I doin'. Maw"") Rowe, i the “schoolboy" who this year i I equalled the American league | record of 16 consecutive victories. He’s already been named as the starting pitcher for the Tigers. Rowe won 24 games this season, while losing eight. Then there's j Firpo Mir berry who turned in . 15 victories and onlv five defen's: Tom Bridces wf'h 22 and 11, ami Eldon Auker with 15 and 7. n Spartans Defeated The Geoglein Independents defeated the Pleasant Mills Spartans i Sunday. 2 to 1.
