oe dependents. Cincinnati, in parti-
cular, is likely to have its full
strength ali season
The entire outlook is to uncertain
that Doyle won't announce his
opening line on the pennant races
until the Sunday before the season
opens on Tuesday, April IA, one of
the latest dates on which the Ven-
cradle Broadway sage has ever Civ
en- out his official odds.
Until Ted Williams was reclassi-
fled from IA to 3A Doyle had the
Chicago White SoX tabled as the
second choice in the American
League race.
TWO RANK EQUAL
Even with williams I rank the
White Sox and Red SOX almost
equal in my present calculations >
Doyle said. You know that White
Sox pitching staff could carry them
far. With hitters like Cecil Travis
Sam Chapman and Hank Green

Chicago staff even better
The Yankees have lost only one
regular so far. first baseman Sturm

who plays first base for them They
can even lose Tommy Heinrich and
still not be hurt badly. However,
they can't afford 10 lose little Phil
Rizzuto who really helped make the
Yanks last season with his Won
derful shortstop play. Detroit with
out Greenberg. and Cleveland, with
out Feller, are just shells of the
clubs they were.
Doyle doesn't think the transfer
of Johnny Mize to the Giants will
weaken the Cardinals

MIAMI BEACH. Fla. March 3
CUPl - The world champion Yam
KEGS will run away with the Amer
ican League pennant and the Cardi-
nails, Dodgers and Reds will stage
a typical national circuit dogfight
in the matured judgment Of Jack
Doyle. baSeball's official pricemaker
who is here summing himself in pre-
paration for a strenuous season.
Doyle, who's been quoting odds
on baseball since the turn of the
century, thinks the major leagues
pennant in 1909"
that ;ne trend OF events in the Far
East and on other battletronts
might possibly play an important
role in the flag races
Right now the Yankees are
standout and will be a short priced
favoHte in their league Doyle
said. You have to like the Cardl-
nails in the National League. Few
teams ever had the hard luck they
cid with injuries last season and
;et they were in the thick of the
scrap until the last week of the
race. The Dodgers, however, will
have to be reckoned with and the
Feds could come back Just like the
Cubs. champions for three straight
years, did in 1910 after blowing the
pennant in 1909
IN LAP OF GODS
Doyle pointed out that the wars
effect on baseball Is something
that's in the lap of the gods.
No one can tell for sure just
how hard any team will be hit, .
re said Il had an idea that all
teams would suffer about alike but
look at De-. oit last .eason. They
lost Hank Greenberg which dealt
the Tigers a crushing blow That al
most happened again in the case of
Ted williams and the Red Sox.
But overnight the picture has
changed and Williams will be with
the Red Sox all season I don't
need to say what a difference that
will make in the Red SoX
Some clubs may not be hit as
hard as others For instance. l un-
derstand Cincinnati and Brooklyn
have very few key players likely

WHY THE FUSS?

We really can't see why all the
Cardinal bosses are so baffled be-
cause Eddie Lake, utility outfielder.
said he would take a $l5O cut in
salary to get to play with the Sac
ramento Solons, Card farm team.
It seems that Lake is one of those
fellows who likes baseball so much
that he would rather be playing in
the game with an inferior club at
lower wage than sitting on the
Cardinal bench cooling his heels at
a large monthly salary.
Last year Lake only got to play
n about so Of TIE St. Louis games
and he never started He was put
in as a pinch hitter or tossed into
the lineup to give the regular a
rest.
