WORLD SERIES OPENED TODAY IN MOTOR CITY Detroit Tigers And St. Louis Cardinals Meet In Annual Classic - i Detroit, Oct. 3.—(U.R>—Two teams of destiny—the St. Louis Cardinals! and the Detroit Tigers met today in the first game of the 31st world series. Thia city was packed and jammed with fans from far and near for what promised to be the most, colorful and dramatic series In years/" More than 48,000, tilling every available space of Navin field, gathered for the first game, | hoping to see the pitching duel of the century —a meeting of the Cardinal star. Dizzy Dean, and the Detroit Tigers' ace moundsman. Schoolboy Rowe. These were' not necessarily the | starting pitchers, who will not bej known definitely until just before game time, but were the senti-: mental choice of fans and experts, j It seemed likely that Dean would I draw the Cardinals’ asignment, 1 while Detroit’s pitching assignment lay between Rowe and Alvin ; Crowder. Neither Mickey Cochrane, the; Tiger boss, nor Frankie Frisch, pilot of the Cardinals, had made! the Dean and Crowder selections: official. The choicest of the many rum. ors heard in this baseball-goofy i city was that Frisch intended to throw the Deans. Dizzy and Paul, against the Tigers in the first four games. Nobody, however, really expected the methodical Frank to make such a contemptuous gamble. Cards Favored Detroit. Oct. 3. —(U.R>—Call it all off. divide up the spoils, let the nation's fandom gather around the hot stove for the winter. The whole series is as good as over before it starts.. The St.

He said last spring in Florida ' the Dean boys would win 45 games ■ during the National league season. They won 49, so who can say that I the greatest of the Deans doesn't . know whereof he speaks on this dramatic day? "Me today,'" say Dizzy. "If man- ; ager Frisch will let me go. Paul I tomqrrow.

DOUBT LEGALITY OF I. 11. SHIFT Bo McMillin’s Five-Man Backfield Shift Legality Questioned Indianapolis. Oct. 3 <U.R> Legality of Bo McMillin's five man backfield used by the Indiana i university football team this sea- , son today was questioned by the Indiana offici ils association. Hoosier arbiters based their objection on Mi Millin's insistence upon naming two fullbacks and only one guard In his starting lineup before Indiana's 27 to 0 victory over Ohio U Saturday. The official* said they must know before the game starts and thereafter who plays guards, tackles and center properly to judge on each play if any of these men are not on the line of scrimmage when the ball is snapped or whether or not the player is five yarde hack cf the line of scrimmage to qualify for backfield play as the rule requires. | The rules provide that a line-, man not qualifying for hackfield play, unless permanently shifted to the backfield, is liable to five yard penalty. A supplemental note to the rul-1 ing defines "permanently” to [ mean that a lineman so shifted into the backfield may not return to a line position during the game. Officials said they must know which of the linemen may be considered "permanently” in the backfield, relinquishing his right to return to the line thereafter.
