Vikings In West NEW YORK (UPI) The nev-Minnesota Vikings will start play in the National Football League as a member of the Western Conference and the Dallas Cowboys will shift to the Eastern Division, Commissioner Pete Rozelle announced today. In releasing the expanded schedule for 1961, Rozelle announced that each club in the league will play a home-and-home series with each of the six other teams in its division, plus two games against teams from the opposite division. Each team will play a 14-game schedule starting fept.

17, making a total of 98 games. This will mean one additional home game and another on the road for each club. With the addition of the Vikings as the 14th dub in the NIX, it was feared at last Decembers league meeting that both Minnesota and Dallas would have to compete as swung" teams in 1961, that is, they would have to play every other club in the league once. Both the Vikings and the Cowboys preferred to be assigned, to a conference and play home and-home series, just as the other clubs do. Use More Ball Parks The more desirable homc-and-home arrangement was made possible because of the increased availability of ballparks early in the season, particularly in New York, Washington and Dallas.

The baseball New York Yankees for tiie first time permitted the New York football Giants to schedule a game in Yankee Stadium prior to World Series time. It also was learned that the sta dium under construction in Washington will be completed by Oct 1, a few weeks earlier than had been expected. As a result, the Giants will open their home schedule at the earliest date in their history, meeting the St. Louis Cardinals Sept. 17.

That same Sunday, the champion Philadelphia Eagles will be at home against the Cleveland Browns; the Cowboys will be host to the Pittsburgh Steelers; the Western Division champion Green Bay Packers will entertain the Detroit Lions; the San Francisco Forty-Niners will be at home against the Washington Redskins; the Vikings will begin their schedule at home against the Chicago Bears, and the Baltimore Colts will be host to the Los Angeles Rams. East Picks Dallas Eastern Division clubs, which by previous agreement had their choice as to which ol the two newer teams they wanted added to their conference, chose Dallas, as had been expected. Last season, the Cowboys played a "swing" schedule but were listed in the Western Division for the purpose of standings. Dallas and Minnesota were scheduled to play the only interconference hoiue-and home series as a start to what league officials hoped would become a strong rivalry. All other clubs will play their two Inter conference games against different clubs.

The Eagles, for example, play the Bears at home and the Lions wllh, out' Lefty Mike McCor- mick was summoned to get the was final out, but instead Virdon hit his first pitch over the right field fence for a three-run homer. Face, who gave up an unearned run during his two inning stint, received credit for the victory although Clem Labine retired the Giants in the ninth. In the Bravt Cards game, Spahn led Ernie Broglio, 1 0 after seven innings on a homer by Eddie Mathews. A triple by Hal Smith in the eighth, followed by Bob Nieman's pinch single tied the score for St. Louis and Spencers homtr foiled Spahns bid for his 289th victory.

Lindy McDaniel was the Cards relief. Ron Fairleys pinch two run double off Robin Roberts climaxed a three run seventh-inning rally that gave the Dodgers their victory over the Phils. Wally Moon homtred for Los Angeles and John Callison hit a two-run homer for the Pmladelphia Runs. Don Drvsdale was the winning pitcher with relief from Larry Sherry in the last two innings. Spoil Himsl's Debut Jim O'Toole 4 hit pitching and home runs by Frank Robinson and Wally Post helped the Reds to their victory and ruined Himsl's debut as boss in Cubs owmr Phil Wrigley's rotating managerial scheme.

In the AL, Ramos hit a two-run single to help his own cause against the Yankees. Bob Allison and Reno Bertoia hit Minnesota homers. Whitey Ford was the loser in the Yankees' first homeopening defeat since 1954. Cleveland jumped on Jim Bun-mng for six runs in the second inning and Jim Perry pitched a 7 hit victory over Detroit. i Pisrsall and Vic Power each made 4 hits and Bubba Phillips contributed a homer to the Indians 18-hit attack.

Rookie Jake Wood hit a 2-run Detroit homer. Only one of Kansas Citys five runs against Boston was earned. Ray Herbert drove in two tallies with a double and received credit for the A's victory although he pitched only six innings. Kluszewski drove in five runs with his two homers as the Angels knocked out Baltimore starter Milt Pappas in the second inning. Grba struck out five batters, all in the last six innings.
