Picks Dodgers And Indians To Take Pennants New York, Apr. 11—(UP)— The Dodgers and Indians, who should have won last year but didn’t should finally make it this year. The likely favorites when |he season opens Tuesday, they , are this observer’s; picks to meet in he world series in \ October. For what it’s worth here is the rrediction on the order of finish: National League American League 1— Brooklyn I—Cleveland1 —Cleveland 2— Philadelphia 2—New York Louis 3 —Boston 4— New York u4 —Detroit 5— Boston sf—Chicago 6 — Cincinnati 6—Philadelphia 7— Pittsburgh 7—St. Louis 'B—Chicago 8 - Washington Baseball mpn generally are agreed that except for pitching, the Dodgers have by far the soundest ball club ip the major leagues. And they with that kind of rower and polished fielding, manager Chuck Dressen doesn’t need : lit edged pitching to win. • I The figures do not agree witjh the common belief that pitching I cost the Dodgers the pennant last j tall. Their tbp five Winners — | Preacher Rpe Don Newcombe, Ji Carl Erskine, Clyde and i Ralph Branca—won a tbtal of 8a games. That is two more than the <op five of tlie pennant winping Giants woii and was tops in the league for ai>y clubs five leading pitchers. 1 | ( Eddie Sawyer’s rejuvenated Phillies priomiie to givfc Brooklyn the most trouble for with Curt Simmons back from army duty they may well come up with the best pitching in the league. But they don’t have Brooklyn’s power, speed or defensive ability. 'i St. Louis eopld be the darkhorse for the Cardinals’ new skipper, Eddie Stanky, hsa installed the old gas house gang spirit in the club and if fading veterans like Enos Slaughter, Breecheen and Al Brazie can keep going a|l season long the Redbirds could take it all. The Giants, despite their fine pitching and the addition of Lard-hitting Bob Elliott, don’t figtne to repeat without Monte Irvin and perhaps. Willie Mays. Boston is relmilding and the Reds. Pirates <Bnd Cults have little co offer. Manager Al Lopez is confident the Indians will win. but they lost Lst season because they lacked power and because the left side of their infield made tpo many costly errors. But they‘ figure to. have the best pitching in the league again with the big four of Bob Feller. Early Wynn. Mike Garcia apd Bob Lemon and Lopez feels that shortstop Ike Boone and third I aseman Al Rosen have overcome heir shortcojnings in the field. Bob Nulf Resigns As North Side Coach Fort Wayne. Ind.. Apr. Ur—(UP) -Bob Nulf, football coach and athletic driector of Fort Wayne North Side high school, announced his resignation today, effective at !he end of the current school year.
