SAN BERNARDINO, Cal, March
24 —With just one notable excep-
tion the Pittsburgh Pirates will gamble their 1939 pennant chances on the same lineup which fell apart
before the Ghicago Cubs’ challenge in 1938, but this time Pie Traynor believes they'll make the gamble good. The mild-mannered manager thinks the single substitution, Ray Mueller for Al Todd at the catching post, will transform the bridesmaid into a World Series bride after 11 years of waiting. But he frankly insists it will be mostly a matter of luck.
He's Magie With Hurlers
The key man, Mueller, came from Boston in exchange for Todd, John Dickshot and cash. Many fans believe the Pirates erred in trading Todd, but Traynor doesn’t He says Mueller is magic with pitchers, and that is what is needed most.

What to Do With Hard-Hitting Rookie Is Latest Headache of Pilot Durocher
retirement to the doghouse of Pitcher Russ Bauers, because of training violations, put the Pittsburgh Pirate mound staff into. a quandary today. Manager Pie Traynor told Bauers, whose arm has proved none too good this season, that he would have to start getting to sleep on time. It was a similar offense that finally “broke the camel's back” and caused Brandt's dismissal. Bauer’s next violation, said Traynor, would bring a stiff fine.
League champions are going to emulate the New York Yankees’ hitting power this year. The homers and doubles helped the Cubs score a 6-to-5 victory yesterday over their hometown® rivals, the American League White Sox. The Cubs came to San Bernardino today for a game with the Pittsburgh Pirates.

Bill Brubaker and John Juelich, who hit .262 and fielded .975 for Rochester, will be the utility men, and Frank Gustine, up from Hutchinson, may be retained. Manush May Replace Paul Unless Paul Waner comes to terms, the outfield will be composed of Johnny Rizzo at left, Lloyd Wsaner at .center, and Veteran Heinie Manush, who came from Brooklyn via Montreal, at right. Manush batted 313 for Montreal. He may hold the job even if Paul Waner reports. Forrest Jensen and Fern Bell, who batted .327 for Louisville, will be retained for placement work. Rookie Bob Elliott of Savannah will be farmed for more experience. A Traynor thinks the probable ranking will be Pittsburgh, Chicago, Cincinnati, New York, Boston, St. Louis, Brooklyn and Philadelphia.
