I have made 17 bets and if 1 win them all my pockets ou pay-off day will bulge with J 7.24 in hard, cold, crisp cash. Here are the 16 other bets; Hank Greenberg, Detroit, will hit more homers than Jimmy Foxx Lou Gehrig's consecutive game streak of 1.808 will end this season. Leßoy Parmelee will win more games tor the Cubs than Paul Dean does for the Calais. New York City won't place a team In the world series. Gerald Walker. Detroit outfielder, will outhit Luke Appling. White Sox shortstop and last year's Ametiian batting champion. Ducky .Medwick will top Paul Waner. National league hitting champion. Lefty Gomez will fail in his comebacl) and win fewer games than he has since 1934. Chet Laabs. Detroit, will be the bes hitting American league rookie. The Giant infield that starts the season won't be the regular one in August. Schoolboy Rowe will win more games than Dizzy Dean.

My odds on neither New York club winning were 6 to 1. I should have had odds on Gehrig's streak ending, but as 1 1 operated strictly on a hunch I took the even money.
