When the Detroit Lions fell be-
fore Green Bay Packers, $50. in
their opening game. it appeared
the customers might have TO be
coaXed through the Briggs Sta
ldium turnStiles this Fall chiefly
by the prospect Of seeing the
great Wayne University band in
faction.
But the Lions have taken the
play away from the Wayne band.
After three gradually improving
but futile starts they picked the
fright time 10 come through. They
have won their home opener from
the Cleveland Rams. TT, and
proved themselves an interesting
and good, if not championship
football team It might be said
the Lions were warming up for
the Chicago Bears when they
pounded out that triumph before
26. 481 persons yesterday at the
ball park. If so, that might be
like warming -up=fanA hanging

ter what happens next Sunday
the Lions and their followers will
still be very pleased over the VIC
tory because it lifted them from
the cellar in the Western Division.
SUPERIORITY APPARENT
There was no question of the
Lions superiority. Not with Harry
Hopp. the freshman fullback from
Nebraska smacking over for
touchdown from the three-yard
line in the first period. Not with
Chuck Zimmerman boosting the
score TO 100 in the third period
/ with a field goal from the eight
yard line. And with halfback Ned
Mathews hurting a 27-yafd pass to
END Bill Fisk in the end zone for
the final Lion touchdown in the
fourth quarter.
II was almost Mathews last
scoring play of the season. The
pass interception specialist. who
set up the touchdown by grabbing
Goody Goodnight's pass on the
Rams 26-yard line and then throw

the rams was broken. but X-rays
today showed no break.
