6 An air-minded and hard-running Michigan State eleven evened a lot of old scores here today by handing an erratic Michigan team a stunning 16 to 0 defeat before an opening day crowd of 30,000 persons. It was the Spartans' first football victory over the Wolverine Since 1915, when they won, 24 to 0, and only their third in 29 games between these old rivals of the gridiron. State supporters were so jubilant that as soon as the final gun sounded they rushed to the goal at the north end of the field and sought to uproot the posts. This was the signal for the start of the wildest after-game scenes ever witnessed here. i i I rsv; A contingent of Michigan rooters met the Spartans at the goal and in the rioting which followed fists frequently were leen to fly through i1! i i Rowe Unlikely me u.

LOUIS, Oct. 6 Unless kept Out of Sunday's game by Doctor's orders, Dizzy Dean will not meet Schoolboy Rowe In this World dred fans milling about and the rioting continued for fully 20 minutes.

Michigan's superior numbers won in the end and the goal posts stood intact, although several Spartans did succeed in climbing to the cross bar. Ray Gellnas, a Michigan student, suffered a possible broken arm in the 'fight Gelinas was taken tc the University Health Service and later to University Hospital. A check of the police and hospital records showed that no others engaged in the melee applied for treatment. State and Ann Arbor police were outside directing traffic and did not get back into the stadium to break up the battle. Kurt Warmbein, a slender senior from St.

Joseph, was the spearhead of State'a attack. Besides keeping his team in Michigan territory much of the time after the first quarter by his accurate passes, irS Series. Prospects for a duel between the hurling aces of big league baseball faded today when Manager Mickey ST. Oct 6 "They can't hurt me by hittin me on the head." With these words, Dizzy Dean assured the world tonight that he was ready to hurl against the Tigers Sunday after one Cochrane announced that he would end Tommy Bridges in Sunday against Dean. Dean, who was knocked uncon game of the World Series, but actually made the National League champions look bad in the beating.

The victory evened the series at two games each and assured Detroit another glimpse of the two teams in action as they battle for the world's baseball championship. The Cardinals received more than a bad beating today. In addition to being" trounced in a humiliating manner by thi Tigers, they received a fearful shock when they saw their act hurler, Dizzy Dean, knocked unconscious by a thrown ball. Suffering from a slight brain concussion, Dean was carried from the field. For a time it appeared that he was lost to the Cards for the remainder of the series, but after the game it was announced that, he had recovered and that he would pitch against the Tigers Sunday.

His opponent will be Tommy Bridges. The accident to Dean occurred in the fourth inning when the Cardinals came from behind to tie the score after the Tigers had taken a 4 to 2 lead. Dizzy was sent in to run for Pinch-Hitter Virgil Davis when Davis singled. Then Pepper Martin hit a double play ball to Charley Gehringer, who scooped it up and tossed it to Bill Rogell. That retired Dean, and Rogell cocked his arm and let go a quick throw toward first with the intention of throwing out the speedy Martin and completing the twin killing.

Dean Lies Still in Dust But Bill misjudged the height of the tall Dizzy, who came into second standing up. His throw struck Dean on the head and Dizzy toppled into the dirt back of second base and lay still. A groan went up from the crowd when it saw its hero fall. "There goes the series," cried the fans in despair as they criticized Manager Frankie Frisch for sending Dean in as a baserunner. Their fears seemed justified as Dean was carried from the field, but toward the end of the game the announcer informed them that "Diz is all right," and they left the park feeling a little better.

The Tigers looked more like the club that won the American League race today. They pounced upon five Cardinal pitchers for 13 hits. They ran wild on the bases and played superb defensive ball. They even succeeded in making a goat of John Pepper Martin, the man who became the hero of the 1931 series by running wild on the bases while Mickey Cochrane was catching. Today, Martin made three errors, two of which were fumbles of thrown balls while base-runners were sliding into John Pepper's station.

Mickey Cochrane saw a1' and smiled. He'll sleep well tonight. Auker Game in Pinches Much of the credit for today's triumph must go to youn', Elden Auker, the submarine ball tosser from Kansas, who went the route on the mound for the Tigers. Three times during the first four innings Auker found himself in difficulty, once because Ernie Orsatti tackled Charley Gehringer and knocked the ball out of his hand while Gehringer was trying to make a double play. But Auker never became rattled.

He pitched with dogged courage. He fought his way out of each tight situation and soon his teammates became inspired by the hurler's downright gameness and went after the foe in a way that could mean only victory. The entire cast snapped out of its slump today. Hank Greenberg, who was dropped from the clean-up position to sixth place in the batting order, exploded all over the place.

Sebo made his kick with Russell Reynolds holding the ball for him directly in front of the Michigan goal and 13 yards out. This score, which would have won for State without the help that Warmbein later delivered, followed three unsuccessful place-kick attempts by the same Sebo in the second quarter.

Both of Warmbein'g touchdowns came in the late stages of the fourth period. Donald Wiseman, a fullback from Grand Rapids, paved the way for the first one when he With Dizzy pitching Sunday, Frisch will have Paul Dean and ger Frankie Frisch calted in Dizzy Dean to run for Davis. Dizzy scampered over to first base and the whole Cardinal team went on its toes. Then Martin grounded to Gehringer, who tossed to Rogell, forcing Dean and then the accident happened.

The ball bounded high into right field. Dean fell prostrate. Durocher scored and both the Cardinal and Tiger players ran over to take care of Dizzy.

Others excused Frisch, declaring that base line accidents are rare, and that Dean's appearance in the game raised the Cards to a fighting pitch in the midst of the rally. Dearf went in at his own suggestion, too, they wagered.

All Frisch said was: "He's a good baserunner." Billy Rogell felt pretty bad about the accident. His explanation was: "The infield was drawn in to cut off the man at the plate. The ball was hit sharply to Gehringer near second base. I went to the sack (second base) to take the throw and complete the double play. "Charley tossed me the ball.

I caught it and then drew back for a side arm throw to first. When my feet are on second base I have a pretty good idea where first is. I knew I had to hurry the throw.

Though perhaps' he was forced Into it by the eccentric Dean's insistence that he be permitted to run and acceded rather than incur his ace's displeasure or ill-will.

The situation at the time of this weird mental lapse or too easy yielding to a childish whim on the part of an experienced and veteran manager, briefly was as follows: When St Louis came to bat in the fourth inning, Detroit had three runs and St Louis one.
