JOE MCCARTHY, New York
Yankees: I don't know how
they're going to finish, but I do
know that the club which beats
the Yankees will win. Our club
is stronger; our pitching is
stronger and Joe Gordon will
show New York q marvellous

CONNIE MACK, Philadelphia

race with the Yankees, Detroit,
Cleveland, Chicago, Boston and
Washington having a chance
for the pennant.
JIMMY DYKES, Chicago
White Sox: It looks like the
Yankees again. Good pitching
and too much power. Detroit
and Cleveland should furnish
most of the contention. We

loss Of Appling at shortstop and

MI. Dope AWdits Dean

For the most part evasively
and even obviously did the field
of National League managers
view the startling trade of Dizzy
Dean to the Chicago Cubs today,
in summing up their estimate Of
the 1888 pennant race, opening
tomorrow. At least two of them,
Casey Stengel, Of Boston, and
Burleigh Grimes, Of Brooklyn,
felt that the acquisition Of Dean
might mean the difference be-
tween the pennant and second
place for the Cubs.
Bill Terry, manager Of the
champion Giants, thought other
wise. He seemed to feel that
there was a catch in 1t some
where and that perhaps Branch
hickey, Of st. Louis, had put
one over" on the Cubs. Bill
McKechnie, Of Cincinnati, pre-
ferred to wait until Dean had
gone into action before passing
Judgment. He had previously
picked the Giants over the Cubs.
The poll of overnight senti-
r1ent was:
BILL TERRY, New York
Giants: I haven't changed my
mind on the Giants. We're
absolutely "set," more so since
the Dean trade. Unless there's
another angle of it still to come,
it eliminates the Cards. And I
think there must have been
something wrong with Dizzy or
Hickey wouldn't have traded
him.
CASEY STENCIL, Boston
Bees: Anybody who acquires a
good ball player strengthens his
club. Dean does a remarkable
job when in form. If he's in
form now, he'll strengthen the
Cubs immensely. They'll Ger
tainly be in the fight with the
Giants all the way, with Pitts
burgh third and my club fourth.
BURLEIGH GRIMES, Brook
Ign: Well all be guessing until
we see Dean go into action. But
If ! liked the Giants chances
before, I'd be inclined to change
my mind now. Even If he only
wins as many games as last
year, IL. Dean is bound to help
any club.
BILL McKECHN1E, Cincin.
natl Reds: I have nothing con.
structive to offer relative to the
Dean trade at this time. Any
guesses on the pennant race
must wait until Dean begins to
pitch. The fight now is be-
tween New York and Chicago.
with Pittsburgh an active con.
tender.
CHARLIE GRIMM, Chicago
Cubs: We're mighty glad to
have Dizzy with us and / know
he'll do his best for the club.
I'm not worried about handling
him. He can cut UP all he
wants to. I know he's one
player who plays ball and moth

field. That's all I care about.
