TURNED TO SOX

For years the fans gave up on
the Braves and pinned their faith
in the free-spending Tom Yawkey,
owner of the Red Sox, who tried
to land an American League pen
nant by writing certified checks.
Now they have a hope that
Coleman, working wonders with a
team that seemed destined for
one-way. trip to nowhere, may do
what Yawkey couldn't do with
more than a million dollars.
And II turn-about is fair play,
the Boston fans have got a pen
nant coming before any other club
in either league. All OF the other
seven clubs in the National have
won pennants since the Braves
did in 1914 and all OF the other
seven in the American have done
il since the Red Sox won in 1918.
Coleman insists the pennant
bee isn't buzzing in his button
topped baseball cap-yet. But if
the team keeps going as it has

Braves New
Miracle Team
BY CARL LUNDQUIST

NEW YORK, May 4 CUP)-
Around the hotel lobbies. where
most of the baseball is played"
on rainy afternoons, they were
tabbing the Boston Braves as the
st. Louis Browns of 1945 and
Manager Bob Coleman as the new
miracle man" of the majors.
The modest Hoosier-born boss
of the Braves disclaims both appe-
lations and says only time will
tell whether his spirited collection
of kids and oldsters can maintain
their present sparkling pace in
the National League races
Maybe it's wishful thinking up
Boston way, but there is a high
degree OF hope Coleman will bring
the fans their first National
League pennant since the original
miracle man. George Stallings, did
il with his motley lot in 1914.
