When Brooklyn rookie ace Joe Black takes the rubber against Yankee strong man Allie Reynolds at noon c.s.t, the odds will be 8 to 5 in favor of the Yankees making it four world championships in a row.

The Yanks got a big boost Tuesday when it developed that three ailing regulars Gene Woodling Billy Martin and Gil McDougald can play. This will be the fourth time since 1941 that the Yankees have met the Dodgers in autumnal combat. But in each of the previous clashes the Yankees were hosts for the opening game in their Bronx ballyard. The Dodgers last opened a World Series at home 1920 against the Cleveland Indians.

The ticket situation had become so acute that some of the Dodger players who submitted their requests too late were not accommodated. The Weather Bureau promised a clear and almost balmy day. It forecast temperatures in the 70's with the usual "home run breeze" blowing in off-shore from nearby I Coney Island.

California, Texas and Illinois Were ranked next in order by the 35 leading coaches who comprise the rating board. Michigan State, a 27-13 victor over arch-rival Michigan last Saturday, received 23 first-place votes and 313 out of a possible 350 points in the coaches' second weekly ratings. California's Golden Bears, fourth last week, jumped up to second place with one first place vote and 219 points; Texas advanced from seventh to third with one first-place vote and 210 points, while Illinois went from sixth to fourth place with three first place votes and 180 points. Ten points are awarded for a first place vote, nine for a second, and so on down to one for a 10th place vote.

(UP) A quarry employe accidentally set off a dynamite charge prematurely at a prison rock quarry near here Monday, killing two guards and injuring 22 prisoners, four of them critically One prisoner escaped over a nearby hill during the confusion that followed the blast, police said. The explosion shattered a locked prison truck in which the convicts had been loaded for a trip back to the Knox County workhouse.

A big boulder knocked loose by the blast landed squarely on the cab of the truck, fatally injuring a guard inside. Guard J. R. Hall was "torn in half" by the blast which came a few seconds after he had locked the prisoners in the truck. The other guard, William M.

62, was pinned in the cab. He died later at a hospital. A state investigation of the explosion was begun Monday night. Witnesses reported that the dyna-i lite charge, intended to loosen rock for Tuesday's operations, was set off by Jess Loveday, a quarry employe wh thought the prison truck had already left. Two injured prisoners, C.

D. Sweat and Walter Godwin, said the guards were. late in loading the truck. The injured prisoners included 14 neeroes and eight white men. Byrd, a Caroline logger, won 15 and lost 15 in his first full season this year.

He gained momentum after a slow start and in a seven-day period from late August to early September he pitched and won three games, including a one-hitter against the champions. The oft-traveled Newsom joined the club in mid-season when there was a crying need for hurlers. Bobo, who admits to 43 years, had a season record of four victories and four losses. Michaels also came to the A's during the season and Kellner has just returned from service. Ko Icapr Avied By VcniC3 Team NEW YORK, (UP) Charley Dressen, no shrinking violet him self, made it plain today that this time the Dodgers will have no m- enonty complex about playing the Yankee in the World Series.

Despite the fact that the Yan kees are the solid favorites, Dres sen is convinced that his is a bet ter team on paper and on tne ield. His chief contention in an analvsis of the two clubs is that the Dodgers played this year in a tougher league than the Yankees. "They say we wilLbe up against when we face those big right handed pitchers for the Yankees," Dressen said. "But we faced some pretty good right handers in the National League all year and we came out well enough to win the pennant" The principal difference this year, as compared with the 1949 and 1947 meetings between the Yankees and the. Dodgers.

Dressen thinks, is 'that "their big super stars are gone and we are Lie earn with the big names now." "They've lost Joe DiMaggio and Tommy Henrich, and Charley Kel ler is now just back sitting on his hands while the other guys, do the work," he said. "Well, you just can't discount the loss of players like that. "At the same time, we've got the big name stars playing for us. Jackie Robmson is the greatest attraction in baseball today and how about Roy Campanella and Pee- wee Reese and Duke Snider? Or Gil Hodges? They're guys with raw power who can break up a ball game at any time. And none of these guys is even the least bit awed by the Yankees any more.

They've played 'em and know what to expect." Woodling Could Sell Out Yankee Stadium By Self FAIRLAWN, N. J. (UP) The telephone in Gene Woodling's home jangled noisily for the 10th time 15 minutes. "Hello!" "Oh, sure I remember you." "How many did you say you want?" en sets!" "What's that? You say you don't mind paying for them, either?" "I'll do the best can." The weary Yankee outfielder po litely said goodbye, put the receiver back in its cradle and sighed. "People must think we ball play-, ers print our own tickets to the World Series." he said.

"That phone has really been hot the past few days and everybody opens the conversation the same way Can you get me a half-dozen tickets to the "I tell all the people that we ball players-don't get an unlimited amount of tickets and that we have to pay for each one we get but they don't believe it. I -told one fellow that I even have to pay for my wife's ticket but he just laughed at me. Thought I was kid ding him." Woodling is in the same boat as all Yankee and Dodger players, who have been deluged by ticket requests from the moment they clinched their pennants system for distributing tickets, purely in self-defense "My wife, Betty, and I had to work out a process of elimina- tion," he explained. "We tried to accommodate our closest relatives, like our brothers and sisters, first. "We received 24 sets last year and you'd be surprised how cmick they went.

We haven't received our Series tickets for this year yet but we're supposed to get them today. Crackers Fire Dixie Walker NEW YORK, (UP) Dixi Walker was fired Tuesday as manager of the Atlanta Crackers. Club president Earl said he "talked Jt over with Dixie and we decided it would be best not to renew his contract." Walker was named manager of the. Southern Association club in the winter of 1949.

Revnolds has jumped well into scoring lead with three touch. downs and eight conversions for points. He is trailed by Stan Cozzi of Iowa State and Zack Jordan of Colorado with 18 points apiece.

There is little chance that Reynolds will equal his 1950 feat when led the nation in scoring with points.

Three Huskers, John Boraogna, George Cifra and Ray Novak, are amonj conference backs who have scored twice so far. Reynolds also holds the ground-gaining lead with 176 yards in 29 an average of slightly over six yards. Cozzi is on his heels with 169 yards in 20 attempts. Bordogna is fourth with 144 in 37 attempts and Novak is sixth with 119 yards in 20 attempts. Reynolds is third ranking punter with an average of 45.5 yards on two kicks, and sophomore Dennis Korinek is fifth best on punt returns with an average of 13 yards on three returns.

The individual statistics don't include those from the Kansas-Santa Clara game. The Cornhuskers have gained a totals of 828 yards in two games while holding their opponents to 294. They have made 51 first downs, compared to only 18 for the opposition.

Slydaliar Qui, Rams Name Pool Joe Gets Balance Of 1952 Salary LOS ANGELES, (UP) Hampton Pool was named head coach of the pro football champion Los Angeles Rams Tuesday after Joe Stydahar resigned or was "fired" as the result of coaching staff dissension and the team's poor showing.

A controversy over the Rams 37 to 7 loss to Cleveland and coaching procedures boiled to a full-fledged dispute after Stydahar was replaced by his top aide. "I am accepting Joe's resigna tion under conditions offered by him following our loss at Cleve land Sunday," Ram president Dan Reeves said on the part of the board of directors. "I'm through, all right," con firmed Joe. "But as far as I am concerned I was fired." Someone had to step Into the breach and take over," remarked Pool, vho only 24 hours earlier had said he would not take the head job "under any circumstanc es." Pool, center of Stydahar's dif ferences with the Ram front office, said he "weighed the problem all mght Mondajr and decided nothing was to be gained by me being an unemployed heel." Reeves, elaborating on the re signation at a noon press confer ence, said Stydahar agreed to quit "last Sunday in Cleveland" if the club paid him the balance of his 1952 salary reported to be $4,400 plus an additional $7,500. Joe was working on the first year of a three-year pact, reported to return him $15,000 annually.

Stydahar agreed he told Reeves after the Sunday game, the fourth loss in a row for the Rams, that "a change in the coaching staff was needed" to make the club. a championship contender. But he added that he couldn't afford "to quit." However, his statement 'was interpreted as an indirect offer to resign. Stydahar admitted that much of the Rams' trouble was over coaching procedures between him and Pool. During the highly successful 1951 serf son.
