 Montreal. Quc., Dec. 2-(UP)-- Tho nations baseball men gathered here today for the opening Of the National Association of Professional Baseball leagues but one gangiing iaembcrs's absence ovcrShadowcd the whole show.
 The minor league scssion con- vened with important legislative matters. The major leagtiers re- mained in the lobby to talk trade. But Dizzy Deafl--thc main actor was 1000 miles away in Bradenton, Fla.
 The question on every tongue was; Where will Dizzy Dean go?" It was taken for granted that Dizzy, most colorfui, if not the best, pitcher in the land has donned St. Louis Cardinal uniform for the last time.
 Branch Hickey, master mind of the Cardinals vast baseball prop critics, said:
 We will make any deal that will strengthen the Cardinals. Dean or any other player will go if VIC can bolster our team"
 The bidding for Dean b appar- ently between the New York Giants and Cincinnati Reds. Warren Q. Giles, business manager of the Reds, has confirmed the fact that his club offered 1200,O0O cash for Dean and was turned down. Hickey won't say yes or no about the Reds 0ffer, but he siyiy remarks: Dollars can't run bases for the Cardinals"
 The Big Idea
 The surmise is that the Cardinals want players and cash for Dean, with the Giants ready to part with Pitcher Hal Schumacher, Inficldsr Eddie Mayo, Outfielder Hank Lieber and 8 bundle of cash to get the Cardinals' pitching ace.
 Pittsburgh also is bidder for Dean. but the Pirates offer does not include apitcher, needed by the Cardinals.
 shortstop Arky Vaughan, 1o3B National league batting champion, Outfieider Woody Jensen, and Catcher Tom Paddcn arc the players the Pirates are said to have put Up as bait for Dean along with cash.
 Among tho other runors iS one that Brooklyn wants to make the transaction . three-cornere deal The Dodgers want Vaughan and are willing to put ID Van Mungo. their star pitcher to get the Pirate short- stop and other players from the Cardinals.
 One club that definitely does not want Dean is the Chicago Cubs. Manager Charlie Grimm appreciates Deans value but does not want him at tho price of breaking ID his ball club.
 We are building" said Grimm. not tearing down. To get Dean we would have to sacrifice too much"
 0ood Start
 The Cubs made tine first deal yes- tcrday when they gave three play CTS valued at 460,00O and cash said to be e60.00O for Outfieider Johnny Gill, Third Bageman Joe Lillard and InfieIder Joe Vitter. who played last year with the Portsmouth, Va.. Piedmont league club.
 Marty. who played with Joe Di- Maggie, Yankg sensational rookie for two years, hit .3bo last year. He s 23 and right handed hitter.
 The first action of tho minors was taken by the International league which voted to eliminate the little world series with the American association. The International lueague will continue to hold the Shaughncssy playofY between the four first division clubs and will add 8 pool of 4i2,000 for division among players. Tn addition the league voted to make the lights for night games uniform in ali parks.
