trade to be announced by American

ing his retirement from the majors,
some decision will be made. II Gan
dill is serious In his intentions, Wally
Pipp is expected to be obtained from
the Yankees In exchange for Happy
Felsch, the outfelder.
Though Babe Ruth says he will
ask Miller Higgins to play him in
center field instead Of in right, where
he feels he may be injured crashing
into the wall at the Polo Grounds, it
is possible that the king of home
run hitters may start the season al
first base for the Yankees.
Ruth has frequently played first
base with the Red Sox. Ed Barrow
once said that. but for the. presence
of such a stellar performer as Stuffy
McInnis, he would have kept the big
slugEer right on tho initial sack.
Ruth handles himself rather well at
FIRST base and would surely improve
with constant work there.
Pip II . Favorite.
Wally Pipp is a great favorite with
followers of the Yankces, but he win
