THE OTHER THREE Johnny Come
Lately teams are from hunger. The SEN
ators seem destined to wind up in last
place again, this time by themselves. The
New York. Nets have been called, not
unfairly, probably the worst club in the
history of baseball. With 40 games left to
play they already have lost 50. The Houston
Colts aren't much better.
Despite their lowly position, there is
some balm for the Senators. AS bad as
they've been, they are not as far behind
the Yankees as four MI teams Phillies,
Cubs, Colt ass and Mets-are behind the
Los Angeles Dodgers.
81 still think we've got better club
than the Red Sox," Ed Doherty says, which
brings up the rumor that Yawkey, who
recommended Doherty to Gen. Pete CUES
ada, viii offer the general managership at
Boston to his longtime friend.
That's what was written in Boston
newspaper" Doherty peevishly comments.
"Just because I had three meals with
Yawkey I'm supposed to be the next gen.
eral manager. Tom never mentioned an
offer and, as far as I'm concerned, I'm
perfectly happy in Washington. In spite Of
anything people say, think we're on our
way to building a respectable ball club"
WHAT PROBABLY Is BUGGING the
10 stockholders In the Senators is the
success Of the Angels, who are fighting
for second place and who have won some
20 games more than their fellow-expansion-
lists. There will be no discussion here on
the subject at this time except to suggest
that the expansion business takes time
and players.
The Angels got the players sooner
than the established American League
clubs expected. It has taken longer land
what doesnt?) in Washington.
Expansion is not done with. Sooner
or later there will have to be three major
leagues Of eight teams each, geographically
aligned to alleviate today's brutal coast-so-
coast, 162-game schedule and the prohibi-
tive cost Of travel. Ten-club leagues are
and never were any good. The American
Association was 10-clubber at one time,
and more than once team raced to a
waiting airliner still dressed in uniform.
This was back in the days of the dos, it's
true, but the AA's longest hop was only
from Charleston, w. Va, to Denver and
vice versa. The majors now use Jets but
they also travel between Boston and Los
Angeles, New York and San Francisco.
Two 10-team leagues Just aren't going
to work out indefinitely, financially or to
the physical well-being Of the players.
Maybe the sooner the majors expand again
to "a clubs the better. It may mean more
bad ball players but at least they won't be
both bad and tired.

McPeak emphasized that-win,

use only basic formations ex-
cept for q couple Of reverse
plays and forward passing spe-
cials. It is going to take some
time to install the total offense
and the coach doesn't expect to

On defense. McPeak plans
to use Gene Cronin at left end
instead Of John Paluck. The
latter will spell Cronin and also
will share the middle lineback-
ing spot with Dick Lasse. Lon
Herzbrun's inexperience may
cost him the middle lineback-

it has been possible for those in or close to
the trade to devote more attention to the
horrors Of expansion, past, present and
future.
Rumor- mongers lately have suggested
that Tom Yawkey is fed up with the run
down condition Of his Boston Red Sox
(whose attendance is off 10000 from last
season. and is willing to sell. In Cleveland
the press is blistering the Indians after
their annual collapse and the tip is out
that new site Is being considered by the
front office.
Finally, there is Charles o. (for owner)
Finley's apparent desire to transfer his
Kansas City Athletics to the Dallas-Fort
Worth area. However, we can safely assume
that Finley can dream all he wishes about
moving, but the awakening Is rude. The
American League clubowners land he needs
permission Of seven Of the 100 aren't going
to allow Charlie o. to move anywhere,
unless It's simply out Of the game.
For that matter, baseball people who
are willing to talk are prone to scotch the
Red Sox and Indian rumors, too. 1T had

did he mention to me that he was willing

Tom will hang on in the hope OF winning

AS FOR SHIFT of the Cleveland
franchise, when and If, such move would
not be consistent with the Indians draw

rendous flop, the Tribe attendance is up

down.
It has been said and written that
Cleveland is one club that is adamant on
the subject Of refusing permission for
Finley to move to Dallas. The reason: The
Indians want to keep as many sites open
for exploitation in case they jump. But
only yesterday an authoritative voice in
the AL family doubted if the front office
would move from Cleveland to Texas.
