Open Stanley Cup
Finals Tomorrow
BY the Assoeiofsd Press

DETROIT, April 10.-A cou-
rageous Detroit Red Wings team,
victor over Toronto in a thrilling
seminal series, got set today for
the opening tomorrow of its
Stanley Cup hockey championship
series with the New York Rangers.
Detroit's Leo Reise drove in a
10-foot goal at 8:39 of the first
overtime period last night to give
Detroit 10 decision over the
Leafs in q rugged game before
1874 slightly hysterical fans
here.
That victory gave Detroit the
series 4-3 and ended Toronto's
three-year reign as champion of
Stanley Cup playoffs.
The meeting be tw e n the
Rangers and Detroit marks the
first time in seven years that clubs
representing American cities have
met in the finale of the National
Hockey Leagues playoff.
The championship series will
open in Detroit tomorrow. with
play moving to Toronto on Thurs
day and Saturday. That move
was made because Madison Square
Garden-the Rangers home-cur-
rently is the scene Of circus.
The championship series, in
the minds Of many Detroiters, as
sumed almost an anti-climactic
nature after the thrilling semi
finals with Toronto.
That series went a full seven
games with Reise's shot breaking
up q scoreless deadlock and end
ing SO minutes and 80 seconds of
rough, tough hockey.
The Detroiters had to win the
hard way. registering triumphs in
two weekend games with Goalie
Harry Lumley getting a pair of
shutouts.
Toronto posted a 30 decision
here Thursday and needed only
one win In the remaining two
games to maintain its jinx over
the Detroit club. The Leafs beat
the Wings four straight in the
Stanley Cup finals in the last two
years.
But Lumley shut them out 40
at Toronto Saturday night and
came back last night with another
brilliant performance as he
blanked them again to clinch the
senifinal series for Detroit.
