brought about by this result OF over

ST.LOU|SFANS
SHOW RAGE At
DIAMOND DEAL
Effect Of Smith and Dugan Co.
ing to Yankees Reflected in
Mound City Attitude.

ST. LOUIS. July 27.-The rage Of
the Boston fans. as they ponder the
latest trade between the Yankees and
the Red Sox. is mild when compared
with the unbridled fury of the al.
herents Of the Browns as they con
template the probable effects OF the
trade whereby the New York club
obtained possession OF Elmer Smith
and Joe Dugan in exchange for
Elmer Miller, Chick Fewster and
Johnny Mitchell.
This transaction is regarded here
abouts as a crime against the national
pasrme and an insult TO true sports
manship which probably will result in
legislation intended to prevent all
trading in players. except in waivers,
in future after the first month Of the
season. Manager Lee Fohl, of the
Browns. does not enter into the ethics
of the affair, but pretends to believe
that Dugan will not help the Yanks
to any apreciable extent.
"Of the two players, like Smithy,'
he is quoted as saying. He played
for me at Cleveland and is quite a
hall player. but they cannot use him
and Witt. He will make a handy
pinch hitter for them. but when the
Browns are going good I'm not afraid
of the greatest pinch-hitter that ever
lived. AS for Dugan, well. Joe may
hit number of points better than
McNally. but he would not begin to
field with Mike. He is, TO my way Of
thinking. a vastly overrated player,
and my players are we'll aware OF his
shortcomings.
Business Manager Bobby Quinn,
OF the Browns, covers the ethics of
the case, as he views them, when he
says. or is quoted as saying:
II have been in baseball long
enough to overlook such things.
love a wholesome fight out in the
open, but there are men who will not

BRANCH R|CKEY
AGAINST TRADES
DURING SUMMER
Says Clubs Have Six OF
Months to Build Strength
For Playing Season.

NEW YORK. July 27.-Branch
Hickey, president OF the Cardinals.
is opposed to any trades between
major league clubs after the season
once gets under way. Says he:
Show me one valid reason why
there shouldn't be a rule limiting
all trades between big league clubs
to the eff season. except by waiver.
There is none"
1t was pointed out to Hickey
that a club might be in urgent
need OF a player in a certain posi-.
tion. II crippled there, for instance.
and in that case II would be only
common fairness to allow IL to deal
with some other club that could
spare a player.
We'll, in such an event" he
said, the deal might be permissible,
but even then subject 10 the ap.
proval OF the league president. the
commissioner or the six other clubs
OF the league.
What I'm getting at is that from
the time the pennant race begins
until II ends all clubs ought to be
on the same footing, dependent on
their own resources, brains and
skill without going outside. Clubs
have six months in which to pre-.
pare for the other six months and
they ought to be compelled to
stand or fall by that preparation.
That's sportmanship, and in the
playing season the wealthy club
would have no advantage over those
with less money"
There was no rancor and moth
ing personal in Rickey's talk. He
traded Heathcote for Flack a while
back, so was not adopting a "holier
than thou" attitude.
