'1919 15 Great Baseball Year Expected (Continued from page 14) tween Cleveland and the Boston Red Sox in the American. Four clubs are given a chance to win in the National Boston, Brooklyn, with a couple of new speedbovs in its outfield and a multitude of youthful reserves, probably Is a slight favorite to out foot the other three. In recent weeks there have been published reports of dlssentlon be tween the Boston Braves and their manager, Billy Southworth, who drove them to the '48 flag. The reports were strenuously denied by Southworth and others, but there appears to be some evidence that the defending champs are not one big, happy family. Cleveland, lleicung largely tne same veteran club which licked the Braves four games to two in the world series, is virtually co favorite with the Red Sox. The two clubs finished the '48 race tied In the standing and the Ind ians won in a play-off, so it Is understandable that the experts are having difficulty splitting 'em up.
