"The day Of the race the

The Shell Oil Co.. as an extra
feature, furnishes small car lifts
so the Derby drivers can properly
lubricate their gravity powered
cars and make minor adjustments
before starting down the speed

Pro Football Round Up

NEW YORK, Oct. 1-iR)-If it had happened in mid November, the sports world would be a-buzzing for days, if not weeks about it. But this greatest of baseball pennant races has made the defeat Aof the Cleveland Browns pro footballs greatest team = an almost obsolete item.
 But lose the Browns did, and to a team which last season won only three games - the San Francisco 49ers.
 Guided by the delft Frankie Albert, the 49ers yesterday upset the mighty Browns 24 to 10, before 52,219 fans in San Francisco.
 It was by far the biggest develop ment of the day as eight National Football League teams opened their schedules.
 In other openers and they all ran true to form = Detroit walloped Washington, 35 to IT; Philadelphia edged the Chicago Cardinals, IT to IA, and the Chicago Bears whipped their perennial enemy, Green Bay, 3l to 20.

Coast Offering Big Doings in Football Doings

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 1-4A- Football offers bang-up far west ern college program, next weekend, exceeding even last weeks bell ringing slate.
 Championship aspirations will ride on the outcome of the coast conference clash between the South ern California Trojans and the Washington Huskies at Seattle, Sat- urday. From a league standpoint, it is the most important engage ment of the day.
 The Trojans won their conference opener from Washington State and divided a pair with service elevens last Saturday. Their varsity beat San Diego Navy 4l-? and the re- serves lost to the Camp Pendleton Marines, 27-l7.
 Washington will be making it's initial bid in the title race. It took hAAI AiiCood1C v Ol lNllllllCoObd ZO-ZU ldSp week ia Minneapolis.
 The intersectional calendar fore casts red-hot action. Washington State touches off the weeks cross country rivalry in contest with reportedly tough Oklahoma A. and M. It will be a Friday night affair at Spokane. WS.C. chalked up a good win over Santa Clara, 34-2O last Saturday.
 California's unbeaten, unscored upon Bears, return from trium- phant 35-0 visit to Pennsylvania's stronghold for a home town Berkeley joust with the Minnesota Gophers. It's set for Saturday.
 University of California at Los Angeles, whipped on it's road trip by Illinois, 27-13, figures to break into the win column finally as host to independent Santa Clara. In its opener two weeks ago, U.CL.A. dropped a 21-l4 decision to Texas A. and M.
 Oregon's improving team turned back Arizona, 39-21 last week but will faceup to much stronger oppo- sition when it comes to Stockton to meet College of Pacific, Saturday night.
 Stanford, yet to live up to its gridiron potentialities, journeys to Ann Arbor for a meeting with Michigan In winning from San Jose State, 26-13, Stanford played an in and out game.

Dodgers, Giants pIayoff
By JACK HAND

BROOKLYN, Oct. = lR - The New York Giants miracle men, of 51 and the dead game Brooklyn Dodgers charge into hand-to-hand combat for the National League pen- nant today in the opener of best of-three playoff series.
 The tie resulted yesterday under the most dramatic circumstances when Jackie Robmson's 14th inning homer gave the Dodgers 9-8 edge over the Phillies after the Giants had subdued Boston, 3-2, behind Larry Jansen.
 All even at the end of the regular 154-game schedule, the Giants and Dodgers collide at Ebbets Field at 10:30 a.m., PSF. The series con- tinues Tuesday at the Polo Grounds. If third game is necessary, it also will be played at the Polo Grounds Wednesday.
 Barring rain, the World Series with the New York Yankees will start Thursday at Yankee Stadium.
 Tanks to Work Out
 While the Dodgers and Giants continued their struggle, the Ameri- can League champion Yankees scheduled daily workouts to keep iii fighting trim. Manager Casey Sten- gel already has named Allie Rev. holds, his double no-hit ace, to pitch the series opener.
 This was the second playoff in the storied history of the National League, now celebrating its diamond jubilee In 1946, St. Louis and Brooklyn fought to dead heat and the Cards polished off the Dodgers two straight.
 Brooklyn still sung with talk of Robinson's deeds at Shibe Park. How he saved the game with that diving catch of a low liner with the bases full in the 18th. How he drove a Robin Roberts pitch deep into the upper tier in left field in the 14th. How the Dodgers over came a 6-1 Phil lead, finally tied the score in the eighth and won a game they absolutely had to win.
 Homer Smashed
 Two were out in the 14th and 1t looked as if the Sunday curfew might halt the game without deci- sion when Robinson smashed his homer.
 When Robinson hit his homer, the Giants were riding back home from Boston, not knowing whether they were pennant winners or tied. They got the final score by tele- phone near Providence, RI. Natur- ally they were disappointed at the many chances the Phils blew in the extra innings.
 As soon as he heard the result, Durocher said, Boys, tomorrow we go back to work There was nothing we could have done about it.
 In other National League games yesterday, the St. Louis Cardinals closed out the season by splitting a .y ydoubleheader with the Chicago Cubs, losing the opener, 7-6. but winning the second game, 80. Ralph Kiner blasted grand slam homer in the 11th inning to give Pittsburgh an 8-4 victory over Gin
