Dodgers Lose to YankS--NeW
 Workers Have New Players

By The Associated Press.
 New York, April 1.-Two capa- ble major league infield performers were produced in the season of Wright of the Pitts burgh Pirates and Travis Jackson of the New York Giants. The pros- pect Is that outtield stars will be developed.
 Jackson had been with the Giants a year before obtaining regular position through the departure of Dave Bancroft to accept the lead ership of the Boston Braves, but Wright gained his honors in sln- gle season, after having been ob- tained from Kansas City of the American association.
 Greater New York is expected to have three new faces in Its out fields, one for each of it's clues. Frank Walker. who sold himself to the Giants while he was manager of the Rocky Mount club. and pocketed the profits, has been play ing In center field, during the pre- schedule games, giving McGraw hope that at last he has found a regular performer for that position.
 Center field at the Polo Grounds In the last few years has been oc- cupied by Benny Kauff, successor to Fred snodgrass, Casey stengel, Bill Cunningham, Billy Southworth, Hack Wilson and even the Giants versatile first baseman, George Kelly. There have been others George Burns made 1t almost a regular post until he went to Gin cinnati. Jimmy O'Connell and Ralph shinners tried it. It has been shaky spot in the McGraW structure.

FORD TO ENTER OCEAN SHIPPING
Plans to Garry Auto Parts in
 Own Vessels

Detroit, Feb. 1.-The Ford Motor Company will enter transatlantic shipping, operating it's own fleet for carrying manufactured automobile parts to the company's foreign plants it was announced today by Edsel B. Ford, president. The Ford Company has purchased the steamer East h. dian from the Emergency Fleet Cor poration as the first large unit in the proposed foreign service fleet.
 The Ford Company already is operating in the South American and coastal trade with two small ships, the steamer Oneida and Onondaga. These steamers were put into this service on a rather experimental basis" said Mr. Ford's announce ment, "and have proved the feasibil- ity of extending our own shipping service to Europe!
 The Oneida and Onondaga have been engaged in carrying automobile and tractor parts to Ford assembly plants along the southern coast of the United States and to South America. The company sent its first ship to a foreign port November last when the Onondaga. laden with motor car parts, sailed from the River Rouge plant at Detroit for Buenos Aires, Argentina.
 The East Indian now is being re- conditioned at Chester. Pa. It's reel procating steam engine will be re- placed. MT. Ford said, by Diesel en- zines ofa modern type. It will be ready for service in six months,
