By Eddie Ash It’s Fourth World Series for the Goose • mm filters Escape Injury Jinx AH Season

jpRETTY soft for Goose Goslin. Last year he was with the Washington Senators and collected a chunk of boodle out of the 1933 world series. Now he's in the big money again. The Senator bosses decided the Goose had out-lived his usefulness along the Potomac and last winter traded him to Detroit for Jonathan Stone. The Goose was kicked upstairs, though he didn't know it at the time. He was traded by a first place team to a fifth place outfit. Then the fifth became first and the first became seventh, and Goslin was flying high again. This is the Goose’s fourth world series. He participated in the classics of 1924, '25 and ’33, all with Washington. The Senators beat the Giants in ’24, lost to Pittsburgh in ’25 and to the Giants last year. m m m a a B THEY call him Goose and he looks like one. He has small, sharp eyes deeply set behind a lame proboscis. He Is 34 and says he started playing ball In the cow pastures around Salem, N. J. He started his career as a pitcher and changed to the outfield on account of his ability to pound the ball. Goslin nearly lost out as a big leaguer when he first joined Washington. He could hit. but was a panic in the outfield. His first major manager. Clyde Milan, "gave up" on the Goose, but was induced to give the lad another chance by Owner Clark Griffith. The Goose gradually learned to field and he has been in the majors since 1921. although in his first year he played only fourteen games. He is known as a money player and usually comes through In a big way m a world series. The Goose was an Important f art or In the Detroit Dennant drive this year. Goslin bats lefthanded, throws righthanded, stands 5 feet ll'i and weighs about 185. a a m a a a IN searching around for alibis to explain their downfall and collapse, the New York Giants have puked out an assortment. A few- are given as follows: The new ball cut down the teams batting. Travis Jackson's bum knee. The tired condition of the pitching staff. Weakness in center field. Bill Terry's aching legs. Poor catching. Joe Moore and Hugh Critz, the jitters. Enough alibis to go around, at any rate, if the baseball moguls try changing the ball every time the Giants complain baseball will be placed in a bad fix. The Giant supporters so far as to say the new ball hurt Terry's team more than the other clubs. Too bad. a a a ana A LUCKY team is tough to beat In a short series and Mickey Cochrane s Tigers enjoved good fortune through the regular campaign. In addition to playing hcads-up ball and fighting for every inch of advantage the Tigers escaped the injury jinx. Not a single regular crippled or sick all season. Pilot Cochrane admits he got the breaks on this point and adds that he nas pepped his boys up to manufacture moie breaks at the expense of the Cardinals in the classic starting today. So much excitement was stirred up over the finish of the National League rare that the baseball world forgot the Tigers for a whole week, but Manager Mickey was not idle. He rested his pitchers in smart fashion. All of the Tigers were reported physically and mentally fit today. The Cardinals were reported a little tired and Manager Frisch spent JWteWtty trying to ' key” his pastimers again. The betting in New \ork switched last night from 6 to 5. Cardinals, to even money. aaa a a a BASEBALL obseivers agree on one thing—that the Tiger rooter can out-veil the Cardinal rooter. The 1934 model Michigan fan resembles the Brooklyn fan when the Dodgers are playing the Giants. The average St Louis vodellcr has had world series experience, whereas its all new stuff in Tigertown. The stretch between pennants there was twenty-five years. • . Another unique item connected with the current world series is that the pennant-winning Cardinals, as well as the new American League flag bearer, wound up m fifth place last year. It is a case of both series contenders leaping forward five places in one year. It is Mickey Cochrane's first year as manager and it is Frankie Frisch s first full year in the pilot seat. Frisch succeeded Gabby Street during the 1933 campaign. a a a a a a Dizzy Dean, the Cardinal ‘‘iron man.” will go on the air tonight. The Columbia Broadeasting System has announced that the colorful mound idol will give voice to his world series opinions during the Byrd broadcast from 9 to 9 30. Indianapolis time. WFBM will carry the program. Dizzy will speak from Detroit.

Stengel Suggests Four Games in Two Days, Using the Deans

BY JOE WILLIAMS Timet Ifftlil S-rts WrU-r DETROIT, Oct. 3—This bit of Ageless literature is being written under happy difficulties. Mr. Casey Btengel. manager of those delightful, delirious Brooklyns, is in the room. Between calls for mineral water and cracked ice you hear many things about baseball that are Interesting and amusing. Topping everything, naturally, ls the world aeries. Mr. Stengel thinks the Cards will best the Tigers, or to be more specific he thinks the De*v 'dß best the Detroit!. "JTUSt kit Duty and Daffy," Mr.

be Rice Institute from Houston, Tex. Two weeks ago Rice's Owls opened their schedule by defeating Loyola of New Orleans, 12 to 0. Last week-end they battled power--1 ful Louisiana State to a 9-9 tie. The ambitious Owls, claiming the country's fastest back field, admittedly have been pointing for the Purdue encounter. A brilliant battle for ground gaining honors is anticipated between the Rice flashes, Bill Wallace and John McCauley, and Duane Purvis and Jim Carter of ! Purdue. Rice's strong start against Loydla and Louisiana State in the southwestern title fight has given the I coming clash with the Boilermakers ' unexpected intersectional importance. In addition to the regular crowd, approximately 4.000 Boy Scouts of the Purdue athletic department, will attend the game. a "bargain” day has been announced with reserved seats selling at $1.50. including tax. Five thousand other seats will be available in the north curvp of the stadium at 75 cents each, including tax. Sation Is Victor in Maryland Feature By Unitnt Pre** LAUREL. Md, Oct. 3.—The Maryland state fair opened its twenty-five-day race meeting yesterday and I the $2,500 added Capital handicap, feature attraction, drew eleven high class sprinters. The six-furlong race resulted in a popular victory for George D. Widet ner's Sation. Happy Go brought the G. H. Buchanan silks home second and Mrs. Deering Howe's Only One was third. Sation. carrying the staggering burden of 130 pounds, raced "hose up while Happy Go set a fast pace to the stretch, then came on courageously to win by a length in the clever time of 1:112-5. Running coupled with Kawagoe. he paid $5.40 straight.

Stengel relates, “and I suggest that they play two games today and two games tomorrow. I suggest that Dizzy pitch the two games today and that Daffy pitch the two games tomorrow. That would be very unique—a double-header on the first day of the world series, and a double-header on the second day of the world series. At this point a peculiar noise came drifting into the room from midtown Detroit. It had a rumble to it. It sounded like Camera gargling, and Mr. Stengel bristled happily all over. “They are still booing the Giants,” he said. It sounded like it at that.

WORLD SERIES OPENER THRILLS SPORTDOM

Jerome Dean Predicts Sure Card Triumph Cochrane Admits His Tigers Will Have to Produce ‘Heads-Up’ Ball. BY GEORGE KIRKSEY t'nitfd Fret* SUIT Correspondent DETROIT, Oct. 3.—Call it off, divide up the spoils, let the nation's fandom gather around the hot stove for the winter. The world series is as good before it starts. The St. Louis Cardinals will be custodians of baseball's biggest prize. The Detroit Tigers will be tramped ten feet underground. How do I know? Jerome Dizzy told me. He said last spring in Florida the Dean boys would win forty-five game during the National League season. They won forty-nine, so who can say that the greatest of the Deans doesn't know whereof he speaks on this dramatic day? Needs Only Paul, He Says "Me today,” says Dizzy. "If Manager Frisch will let me go. Paul tomorrow. Me again Friday at St. Looey and Paul again Saturday. And if Paul needs any help in tha. final game. I’ll be in the bullpen ready to come in at the drop of the hat. I got a rubber arm and can pitch till the cows come home.” Again, do not think Dizzy is any idle braggart. In that last, speci tacular drive down the stretch in the National League pennant race. Dizzy strode to ‘the mound three times in six days, and cut down the opposition with one of the finest assortments of fast balls, slow ones and curves any pitcher sver cut loose from his finger tips. He beat Pittsburgh one day, and with a day’s rest blanked Cincinnati, and then with two days’ rest he again handcuffed the Reds with the pennant hanging in the balance. That kind of pitching never was achieved before in any pennant i.race, major or minor league. Today’s big question was whether Dizzy could keep it up, and Paul could follow in hiS' footsteps. Mickey Set to Hustle That's one side of the thrilling colorful battle which wil’. start unfolding out at Navin Field today. On the other side is Mickey Cochrane, manager of the Tigers, who holds an A. B. in business admin- | istration from Boston university and has brought a fifth-place ball ! club of a year ago to its first pennant in a quarter of a century. Cochrane grants the Dean boys are great; that the Cardinals are tough; that he got ready for Tunnoy and finds Dempsey in the ring as his opponent. “We'll have to make every hit count, get the maximum out of our offense, and knock down base hits with our defense,” says Cochrane. “We'll have to hustle every minute and play ‘heads-up’ baseball, the same kind that won the American League pennant for us. That’s our plan of campaign, and I am ready to stand or fall on it.”

Dizzy Dean Voted Most Valuable in National League Rates Higher Than Gehrig, American Loop’s Best. By United Press ST. LOUIS, Oct. 3.—That Dizzy, but superb, Cardinal pitcher—Jay Hanna Dean—was adjudged the most valuable National League player by leading baseball writers of the nation, the Sporting News, conductor of the poll, has announced. The ace of the Cardinal pitching staff received 57 points out of a possible 64. Lou Gehrig of the New York Yankees received 51 points to become the most valuable American Leaguer. Dean was the only player in either circuit to receive the votes of all members of the committee of eight. Last year’s poll gave Dean only 13 points that ranked him seventh among the outstanding players. Gehrig last year lost the most valuable player award by 2 points, but he has headed the list on two previous occasions—in 1927 and 1931. Players in each league, who received 5 or more points in the poll conducted this season, follow: National League—Dizzy Dean, St. Louis, 57; Paul Waner, Pittsburgh, 31; Melvin Ott, New York, 30; Gabby Hartnett, Chicago, 20; Wally Berger, Boston, 17; A1 Lopez, Brooklyn, 15; Bill Terry, New York, 14; Curt Davis, Philadelphia, 13; Carl Hubbell, New York, Leonard Koenecke, Brooklyn, and Floyd Herman, Chicago, 7 each; Woody English, Chicago, 6; Chick Hafey, Cincinnati, Baxter Jordon, Boston, and Bill Urbanski, Boston, 5 each.

Coleman Flattens Raines and Takes Wrestling Battle Abe Employs ‘Kangaroo Kick’ to Drop Texan. Abe Coleman, New' York, wrestling's “daring young man on the flynig trapeze,” flew through the air with the greatest of ease, “kangaroo kicked’ Dick Raines of Texas, squarely on the jaw, and won last night’s feature wrestling match at the Armory. Not all the kicking w f as done by the animated fire plug, however. On the third and deciding fall, Abe blasted the giant Texan feet first .while Raines was standing outside the ropes. Dick went down in a heap on the floor outside the ring and was counted out. That's why Raines still was “kicking’ today. It wasn’t fair, he claims. Raines also tried his hand at Coleman’s favorite “kangaroo kick,” but all he got for his efforts were two hard falls and some bruises. He looked for all the world like an untamed elephant in the throes of a swan dance. Coleman won the first fall in twenty-five minutes, also employing his kick. Raines hammered out the Jewish star in eleven minutes to take the second flip. The final went five minutes. Andy Rascher, the Hoosier pride, found tough picking in G. Bashara, clever husky from Oklahoma City. The newcomer, big and fast, forced Andy to share honors in their thirty minutes of tussling. In the opener Jack League, another newcomer’ disposed of Whitey Hewitt in fifteen minutes.

Washington Drafted by Sox; Landis Will Decide Dispute Chicago Americans Put In Claim for Indianapolis Slugger; Other A. A. Players Taken Up. By T imrs Special DETROIT. Oct. 3.—ln the annual draft of minor clubs by the big league baseball teams, the Chicago White Sox yesterday laid claim to Vernon George Washington, heavy-slugging Indianapolis outfielder.

But the right of the Chisox to obtain Washington through this method has been questioned, and the slugger will not become Chicago property until a ruling has been made by Commissioner K. M. Landis. The Pale Hose made a deal with a Texas League club two years ago. in which Washington was to report to the Windy City camp. The giant bat-swinger refused to show up for the big time trial and remained in his native Texas. He was acquired by the Indianapolis I-ndians at the beginning of the 1934 season and turned in a .367 batting mark with the Hoosiers. A similar case is reported in Beaumont, where Chester Morgan, outfielder with Beaumont, who batted ,347, has been claimed by the Phillies. The Texas club states Morgan has not been in pro baseball sufficient time to be drafted. Eight more minor leaguers were claimed by seven big loop clubs in the draft. Two American Association catchers were given the call. Henry Erickson, Louisville, was drafted by Cincinnati, and Bob Fen-
