THE Cleveland and Detroit ball clubs, which now are battling it out for the American League pennant, both were priced at fancy odds at the season’s start. As a result the Vittmen and Tigers received a heavy play and a victory for either will jolt the bankrolls of many professional “winter book” layers Collapse of the Yankees caught the bookies in the switches. . . . The four-time champs, priced at the low odds of 1 to 3 prior to the 1940 big league openers, received hardly any play, since plungers were lured by the juicy odds offered on the Red Sox, Cleveland and Detroit. Now the Yankees are figured out of the running by the sharpshooters who back their judgment with century notes and the bookmakers believe they are destined to go deep in their jeans and pay off on a long shot. In the National League, if Cincinnati repeats, the bookies will be hit again, according to reports picked up in baseball betting centers over the country. . . . Despite the fact St. Louis was established preseason favorite by several big “books,” it is said the smart boys supported the Reds from the very start.

Race Fans Speculate on Travers THREE-YEAR-OLDS being so inconsistent this season it's no wonder many are wondering whether the Travers at Saratoga tomorrow will provide an upset as startling as that which marked the 1930 running of the stake. ... That was the yvear Jim Dandy, held at 100 to by the books, splashed his way through mud to victory over the heav-{lv-backed Gallant Fox and Whichone The Travers Stakes, 11 years older than the Kentucky Derby, dates back 1864 and the oldest race renewed in the United States. Great horses have won it despite several upsets—horses like Kentucky, Man O' War, Ruthl Henry Bassett, Duke Magenta, Henry of Navarre, Broomstick, Rock View, Spur, Omar Khayvam, Sting and Twenty Grand.

Durocher and MacPhail might not have wanted Medwick at all, and simply were helpless victims of the shrewdest trader of them all, Branch Rickey, All you have to know about Rickey as a salesman is to remember that he sold Phil (Dentyne) Wrigley a right-handed baseball eadaver, Diz zy Dean, for $185,000. That is near- | ly $100,000 more than the British Museum paid for King Tut, whose | right arm had heen dead centuries longer than Dizzy’s, If the Rickey angle {s true, think of what Durocher and MacPhail might have purchased for the $250,000 that, up until now, has been thrown away on Medwick., They could have gotten a telephone directory of the National League and had almost anything in it from A to Z.
