the Yanks apparently face a hard
fight to retain the pennant, even
with Dickey behind the plate. His

bearing on the outcome of the race.
Arndt Jorgens, Dickey's substitute,

Dickey's class. This difference might

the New Workers, who lost three out

BOSTON, May 10.-Two of the

Tuesday when Tom Yawkey, new

chase of Rick Terrell and Lefty
Brown from st. Louis.
Ferrell hard-hitting backstop,
was the chief need of the Red Sox.
Mervin Shea, brought up by Bos-
ton from Louisville this season, was
sent to the Browns by the Sox,
along with big bundle of cash,
in exchange for the new battery.
Shea had been doing most of the
Boston catching.
While the deal will weaken the
Browns greatly, Phil Ball, Brownie
owner, will have the benefit of the
cash involved. st. Louis has been
suffering at the box Office this sea-
son, and the money will come in

Terrell batted .315 for the Browns

deal He won fifteen out of twenty
seven games for the Senators last
year, but has been unable to hit his
stride with the Browns.
The addition of the veteran south
