Major League Teams Seek
New Talent For Next Year;
Dodgers Plann To Drop 6 Men
NEW YORK, Oct. 11. UP) With the world series now a part
of baseball history, the major league teams continue building
for 1950.
No team in either league Is standing pat. They can't afford to.
The newly crowned champion
New York Yankees are looking
for pitchers (who isn't?) a first
baseman and long ball hitting
outricidpr.
The uncertainty of the physical
well-being of Tommy Henrirh,
Joe OiMaggio and Johnny Mize
necessitates the Yanks search
for a first baseman and an out
fielder who can sock with authority-
Brooklyn's National league
champion Dodgeri also are on
the prowl for pitchers but they
hope to obtain that rare commod
ity from their vast Minor league
empire.
The Dodgers also want to chop
off at least six members of their
championship club In order to
add some of their budding minor
leaguers to their reserved lit.
At present the Dodger reserve
list totals 39, one less than the
legal 40. Unless the Dodgers can
Jettison part of their present crew
they stand to lose some green
but valued timber In baseball's
annual player draft next month.
Dodger president Branch Rick
ey told a press conference v
terday he would like to get rid
of at least a half dozen player.
He refused to name the sextet
but reports have outfielders
Marv Racklev. Dick Whitman,
Mike McCormlck, a third base
man and pitcher Ralph Branca
as the most likely heads to roll.
Rickey started putting his
house in order at the close of the
season, selling five prize minor
leaguers for an estimated $300,
000 and seven players.
He sold ou! Holders Sam Jeth
roe and Bob Addis to the Boston
Braves, first baseman Irv Noren
to Washington and shortstop Chi
co C'arrasquel to the Chicago
White Sox.
The Philadelphia Athletics also
have been active.
Connie Mack is stocking his
team with infielders. He has pur
chased three third basemen
Krankie Gustlne, Kermit Wahl
and Gene Markland. Gustlne, for
mer National leaguer, was ob
tained from Los Angeles. Wahl
from Montreal and Markland
from Buffalo.
Trade rumors are rife In every
other Major league city.
MOSCOW. Idaho, Oct. 11 IIP)
Maybe It s something special
perhaps it's Just psychology, any
way, Coach Dixie Howell locked

Idaho football drill last night.

Shotton, Stengel Will Centlnut Monehjerlol Jobs
NEW YORK. Oct. 11 .P

Brooklyn Dodger has received
a vote of confidence from his boss
and lifelong friend, Branch Rick
ey. Shotton. who led the Dodgers
to the National league pennant
in a stirring drive, hasn't signed
a contract for 1950 but that' not
odd.
Old Barney ha been working
for Rickey for 33 year and never
operated with a contract until Na
tional league rule forced him to
ign one.
Rickey gave Burt a vote of con
fidence during an informal pre
meeting yesterday.
"I consider Shotton a sound
manager, Just as Casey Stengel
and Leo Durocher are sound
manager." the voice of Brook

with a sound manager in nit front
guess.
Meanwhile, Stengel who pilot
ed the New York Yankee to vic
tory over the Dodger In the
World Series, contradicted re
ports that he would not return
because of ill health.
"Nothing to it," said Stengel.
"Why, I'm so healthy that I'm
the only guy on the club who
hasn't had a doctor all year."
Casey Is operating under a two
year contrac that call for W0,
000 per season.
