. The! postwar plans belonging to; one Larry MacPhail! of New
York's Yankees include, surprise as It is, the possession of Lou Novi
koff, the' Chicago Cubs' estranged outfielder now in the army. The
Sporting News intimates as much in revealing the 'Inside' of the deal
which moved Pitcher Hank Borowy from the Yanks to the Cuba this
summer. The Cubs paid $70,000 for Borowy - - $40,000 cash and five
players valued at $30,000. If the Yanks don't figure they're getting
$30,000 worth of players, they are to get the thirty grand In cash. But
the baseball paper hints the Yanks will take players, all right, and
that one of 'em will be the game's "Mad Russian." j
Who? said MacPhail wasn't slowly making Yankees spell D-o-d-g-e-r-s?

Is Woodburn Joe Kahut still the two-fisted prospect he was be
fore Joining the navy? "Every bit," offers our shop foreman Claude
Talmadge who watched Joseph lay away one "Moose" Kennedy In
Portland-last week. Connoisseur Claude, long a local fistic fan, came
home considerably impressed by Kahut. Not unlike others who care
to forecast the future for Kahut in the game, Talmadge considers the
Woodburner not yet ripe for big stuff, but opines he will be one day.
Anyone skeptical of the coaching ability of Phil Sorboe, successor
to "Babe" Hollingbery at the Washington State football helm, should
read the piece printed by Alex Shults of the Seattle Times after he
(Shults) interviewed one Ted Isaacson, remembered as the 275-pound
former U of Washington and professional league tackle. .
if Quoth Isaacson to Shults: "I played in front of Sorboe with the
Chicago Cardinals In 1934 and 35 and if he had been coaching the
team instead of Paul Schissler or Milan Creighton, we might have
won the pro championship. Sorboe was the best man at picking weak
nesses I ever played with and he even devised plays in the huddle.
Many's the time Phil would tell us: This play will start like old 88,
and then well do It this way as he sketched out a long gainer that
worked."; r : , : . f
Mebbe the WSC foes of the coming autumn will find out the hard
way Just exactly what Isaacson means.

NEW YORK, Aug. 22 - () - As
the baseball field turned into the
' final six weeks of the campaign,
' Tommy Holmes of the Boston
Braves and Tony Cuccinello of
the Chicago White Sox remained
the men to beat in the 1845 bat
ting races.
Holmes' closest competitor, Phil
Cavarretta of the Chicago Cubs,
was sidelined by shoulder in-
Jury, and Cuccinello's closest
rival, George Case of Washing'
ton, also was out of the lineup
because of a base running acci
dent i . i
Holmes boosted his mark one
point to .370 in averages includ
ing Sunday s games for a seven
point edge on the idle Cavarretta
at .363. Goody Rosen of Brook
lyn continued a nosediving slump
by gojhg six for 37, dropping to
.345. Mel Ott of New York and
Stan Hack of, Chicago were tied
for fourth at .334.
other National leaders were
Luis Olmo of Brooklyn, .331;
Whitey Kurowskl of St Louis,
.324; Don Johnson of Chicago,
.313; Dixie Walker of Brooklyn,
.309, and Nap Reyes of New York,
.305.
Cuccinello's aging legs kept him
out of the lineup in several games
but the veteran third sacker at
.334 sported an 18 point edge on
Case by hammering six hits in 17
at bats during the past week.
Case's average was .SI 6.

Vem Stephens of St Louis ad
vanced from eighth to third, gain
