Detroit, Oct. 9.?Completing the
spectacular saga of the Deans with
a history-making climax, the great
Jerome Herman (Dizzy) Dean pitch
ed St. Louis to the baseball cham
pionship of the world today with a
record shutout triumph, 11 to 0, as
the Cardinal clontlng crew slaugh
tered the "pitching staff of the De
troit Tigets in as wild and riotous
a finish as any World Series has
ever witnessed'.
The National League champions
blasted the last defense of Mickey
Cochrane's battered Bengals with a
smashing seven-run attack in the
third. They bombarded six pitchers
all told for a total of 17 hits, while
Dizzy Dean, turning in the fourth
victory for his team and family,
emerged from the seventh and final
game with the most lopsided series
shutout margin since Christy Math
ewson blanked the Athletic 9 to 0
in 1905.
Bleacher Barrage.
Before the clouting Cardinals
dashed off the field with the final
decision, four games to three, and
their third world championship in
nine years, they survived a riotous
outburst by the left 'field bleacher
fans, who let loose a barrage of mis
siles aimed at Joe (Ducky Wucky)
Medwick. The demonstration i n
terrupted^he game for 17 minutes
and subsided only after the St. Louis
left* fielder and clean-up clouter was
removed from the game, mainly for
safety's sake, by Baseball Commis
sioner Kenesaw Mountain Landis.

Disappointed home-town rooters,
nearly 41,000 of whom gathered for
the final game, had nothing much '
left to do but give vent to their'
feelings, vocally and otherwise, af
ter the Cardinals had taken most
of the fight out of the Tigers with
that seven-run rally. All doubt about
j the outcome ended with that surge,
' led by the great Dizzy Dean him- j
' self with two hits before the side,
I was retired, and the only question
' to be answered was whether the (
j lanky Cardinal pitching aoe would
score a shutout.

thou, Prance's- champion of peace,
were shot to death by a Yukoslavian
assassin five minutes after the king
arrived here today.
-From all the-capitals of Europe
came concern that the spectacular
slaying would unsettle the balance
of peace on the continent, although
no immediate danger of war was
foreseen. >

Other Victims.
The bullets of the 35-year-old
Croatian assassin, political enemy
of the king's dictatorship, mowed
down a policeman, gravely wounded
a French general riding in the offi
cial automobile with the king and
the foreln minister, and wounded
12 others before the slayer himself
was killed.
* Five women were among the
slightly wounded.
The assassin, a native of Zagreb
named Petrus Kaleman. was armed
iwith one repeating pistol of sub
! machine gun type, German make.
land a small bomb which he had
no chance to use. "
Police said he probably came to
Marseille especially for the purpose
of assassinating his king.
He broke through police lines
holding back huge crowds cheering
the king, whose vfslt had been hail
[ ed as an event calculated to smooth
the path of peace, and leaped to
I the running board of the royal ma
chine. i
1 He sprang across the body of a
policeman whom he shot from out
; of his path. A spray of bullets came
from his special gun containing
twin rapid-fire charges of 10 bv'l- i
lets-each.
WHd Scene.
In a wild scene, General Joseph
George, of the French Superior War
Council, was shot in the abdomen."1
He was pronounoed in a grave con
dition in a Marseille hospital. Police
Inspector Perrier, five other men,1
five women and a 14-year-old boy
were struck by bullets. Later it
was* theorized some of ? the shots
came from the weapons of the sur

Out of the tumult police finally
tore the slayer from the clutches Of
a mob whose cheers had suddenly
turned to cries of anguish and fear.
On Kalemen's left arm they found
tatooed a death's head "with cro&s
bones underneath and the initials of
the words "Liberty or Death." "A

sign, which was enclosed in a tat
