Fleming Homers in Third; Turner Gets

Pair of Doubles By BILL EGGERT Times Sperts Writer

| MONTREAL, Oct. 1— Joe Muir put the Indianapolis {Indians one game out in front {in the Little World Series opener here tonight by hand-

cuffing Montreal, 5 to 1, on three hits. The youthful southpaw, who has won four of five games in post-season playoffs, faced only 32 batters as he gave the 11,457 fans a fancy hurling exhibition. He fanned five and retired the side in the first, fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth innings, and issued but one walk. In the second game tomorrow afternoon, Tribe Manager Al Lopez will start southpaw Royce Lint while Montreal will go with righthander Clyde King, according to Manager Clay Hopper. The Indians went to work early on Johnny Van Cuyk, Montreal southpaw, getting three runs and as many hits in the second frame, Turner Hits Long Double With Frank Kalin on base by an error and Jack Conway on with a single, Earl Turner hoisted {a 320-foot double against the {right center field screen, scoring | Kalin.
