CHICAGO, Mar. 10 (P.-The
Chicago Daily News reported in
a front-page story today that it
had learned the Chicago Cardi-
mails tentatively have accepted a
100000 offer by the Chicago
Bears to move out of town.
The paper, in banner story
written by Sports Editor John
Carmichael under a Tampa
Ella } dateline. said Managing
Director Walter Wolfner will
will move the Cards to Miami
if that city approves.
Wolfner is mentioning at Mi
ami Beach and Owner George
Halas of the Bears is doing the
same at Phoenix, Ariz.
The 100000 offer by Halas
countered a similar offer by
Wolfner to take the Bears out of
Chicago in a bid for television
rights, Carmichael wrote.
With two pro clubs in Chicago
the road games of the Bears and
Cardinals cannot be televised
back to Chicago, cutting off sub
Stantial revenue.
Other National Football League
clubs have been able to tap this
source of money.
Carmichael said the Cards
would play only two September
games at Miami and the rest of
the home games in November

The report that the Cardinals
would accept $5OO,O00 from the
Bears to move out of Chicago
was discounted today by Com
missioner Bert Bell of the Ma
tional Football League.
ITO my knowledge, no such
deal has been made" Bell told
The Star on long-distance tele-
phone. Both clubs are starting
on new three-year radio and
Itelevision contracts, and the
Cardinals have told me that
they are a Chicago club"
Bell said he talked to George
Halas, owner of the Bears, yes
terday and the matter of a
Cardinals move was not men
toned. He talked to Walter
Wolfner. executive director of
the Cards, last week. 1t was
not mentioned then, either.
Halas. Bell noted, couldn't get
any more money for his radio
and TV rights than he is re-
Iceiving now, even if the Cardi-
mails did leave Chicago to the
Ione team.
Reached by phone at Phoenix,
Halas told the Associated Press,
Il haven't offered $780, 900 to
anybody" He added that the
Cardinals didn't affect the Bears

Senators Expecting Sievers
To Contend for Homer Title
Shorter Target,
Smoother Swing
Will Help Roy
BY BURTON HAWKINS
Star STAFF Correspondent

TAMPA, Fla. Mar. 49,
They've rearranged the furniture
at Griffith Stadium this sea-
son, chiefly to accommodate the
home-run potential of strong
Roy Sievers. They've made the
Ileftf1eld fence a more inviting
target which could give the
Senators a contender for the
homer title for the first time in
the era of the souped-up ball.
Sievers slammed 25 nomers
last season and "a in 1854. He
feels the reduced distance to the
stands will boost his home-run
production by five to 10, but it
could be significant that his is
ia more conservative guess than
those offered by Manager Chuck
Dresser, Coach Cookie Lavagetto
or Cal Griffith. club president.
Dresser estimates Sievers will
account for at least 10 more.
Lavagetto places it at between
10 and IS" Griffith is more OPP
timistic, boosting the figures to
between Is and 20.
At any rate, there's the belief
Sievers will be in the struggle to
capture the home-run crown
won by the Yankees Mickey
Mantle last season with 81. Gus
zernial of the Athletics hit 80
and was the only other slugger
who overshadowed Roy appreci-
ably. Larry Dolby and Jackie
Jensen hit 26, Al Kaline, Norm
Zauchin and Yogi Berra smashed
OF and Ted Williams %, al
though the latter was hampered
by late start.
Just Arriving as Hitter
Il think Sievers is just arriv-
ing as a hitter" Lavagetto said.
Cookie doesn't distribute praise
Iindiscriminately, but he believes
Roy is ready to roll. Don't for
get" Cookie said, "Sievers hit
800 or SO after the All-Star
Game last season. He was hot
the last half of the year and
he brought up his average when
it was toughest to do-when the
pitchers are at their best"
Roy has proved, with his fine
finish last year, that he doesn't
wilt" Dresser said. "All he needs
to be in the thick of things is
a halfway good start. He got
off badly last season and was
