Detroit's public and parochial high schools open their fall semester this week and with the opening of school approximately 2.000 athletes will turn their attention to football. Just as last year, the 25 schools with teams in the Catholic League have the jump on the City League schools. The Catholic League adheres strictly to the State Association rulings.

This year these rulings permitted the teams to start practice Sept. 1, regardless of the date of opening of the semester. The City League, with a ruling which does not permit, organized practice until three weeks before th openinfr game, will start practice Sept. 14. Ray Tfau, secretary of the Catholic League, said that the schedule in the three divisions of this league had not been completed.

But he added that it definitely had been set to open the season Sunday. Sept, 27. This is a week ahead of the City League opening, Oct. 2. 25 Teams In League.

Pfau announced that there will ha at least 25 teams in the three divisions of the Catholic League. Only in the first division, where 12 schools are entered, will there be a split division. The West Side teams In this group are St. Theresa's, Visitation. St.

Leo's, Holy Redeemer, St. Mary's of Rcdford and Lourdes of River Rouge. The East Side schools are St. Anthony's, St, Catherine's, St. Joseph's, De Iji Salle, Catholic Central and St.

Ambrose's. St Theresa's is the defending city champion and, although Coach George Dufour has lost a good percentage of his regulars through graduation, the Pirates appear the best off for material available. Visitation is the only new addition to the First Division. Jack Mc-Cormick. who has piloted th pgle basketball and baseball teams, also will coach the gridders.

Oaks to Defend Title St. Mary's of Royal Oak is the defending Second Division champion, The Oaks will face the name competition they did last year. The. other Beven schools in the group are St. James of Ferndale, St.

It is on that day that more than 40 invited candidates will report to the Free Press Fresh Air Camp, at Sylvan Lake, the first Tartar camp since 1929.

Immediately on their arrival the Tartar eleven aspirants will go through their first drill of the season in preparation for their heavy opening assignment with Michigan State on Sept. 26 at East Landing. Joe Gembis, Tartar coach starting his sixth season, and his new aide, George (Bab) Babcock, one-time University of Michigan star and former coach at the University of Cincinnati and the University of Akron, will have twelve lettermen, Including six regulars, as their 1936 nucleus.

Acme played Vlasio in a playoff game two weeks ago and walked off with a 7-to-5 decision. But it wasn't Weston who hurled that game, although German pitched for Vlasic. Leo Gac started the contest and big Stan Czarneckt finished it. There is a chance Stocum may use one of the latter boys, but it is improbable. If Acme wins this game, Vlasio will be eliminated and Acme will play Oldbru next week, needing only one victory in two contests for the title.

If Vlasic wins Pun-day, a draw will determine which teams will play in next weeks teams twice this season. The round robin was worked out on a five-year basis and will be continued next season if this year's arrangement meets approval. M. I. A.

There are 10 schools on the East Side and the Bame number on the West Side. Tough Bow for Champions Hamtramck and Northeastern tied for the City title last year. But these schools will be facing a tough season. Hamtramck, though plentv of veterans are available, will be without Hal Shields as coach for the first time since 1924.
