Rope Snaps, but Customs End
Giants Cop 5-1 Win
In Series Opener
YORK, Oct. 4—(AP>—The rampant New. York Giants,
still scorning the odds, pinned no-hit Allie Reynolds’ ears back
with a barrage of blows -and went on to humble the proud Yankees,
5 to 1, behind Dave Koslo’s crafty southpaw pitching in today’s
opening World Series struggle.
The scrapping National League champions, maintaining the
impetus of their amazing drive to
the pennant, piled into the fav
ored bombers as though they
owned them from the very start,
scoring all the runs they needed
to win for Koslo in the first inn
ing.
Tomorrow Durocher will go
with Jansen, who received credit
for his 23rd-victory of the season
by hurling one fine relief inning
yesterday. Stengel, not having
~had much luck with a righthander
today, announced he would
throw his fine lefty, Ed Lopat,
at the wonder boys tomorrow.
Ed has a 21-9 record for the year.
Dark Hits Homer
Alvin Dark, captain and short
stop of Leo Durocher’s dandies,
put the game beyond the reach of
thfe with 1 ' a tremendous
three-run homer off Reynolds, in
the sixth. Monte Irvin,, slugging
leftfielder, tied a series record
with four clean hits and electri
fied the great crowd of 65,673 by
stealing home for the Giants’ sec
ond and winning run in the first
framej
Koslo, handing the American
leaguers their first loss in a series
opener since 1936, yielded only
seven hits to Casey Stengel’s war
riors and handcuffed them almost
completely over the last seven
innings. The last flinger to stop
the Yanks iri a first series contest
was Carl Hubbell, also of • the
Giants.
First Inning Drama
Koslo got the starting assign
ment only because Larry Jansen,
righthanded Giants’ ace, was
forced to work an inning of re
lief toward the close of yester
day’s sensational victory over
Brooklyn in thg deciding game of
the league playoff. It is doubtful

Amid Confusion

futile attempt to stage a tug-of

Freshman customs were offi

attempts to get the “tug” started
with no success, David Mutchler,
Tribunal chairman, and several
other hatmen, gathered in a group
in the midst of the crowd await
ing the contest and shouted above
the noise “Freshman men’s cus

After the announcement fresh
men swarmed into the West Dorm
area where cider was being served
and impromptu rallies and bursts
of enthusiasm by frosh followed
all across campus.
Because of the press of the huge
crowd, hatmen found it difficult
to get the rope streched out across
