(AP) Rogers Homsby regards Cleveland's Indiana as the strongest club In the Ameri can league, and he doesn't expect Detroit's Tigers to win the 1035 pennant. Back home from the major league meeting In New Tork, the Rajah today discussed the prospects of his St. Louis Browns and the others In the circuit. "Mind you, I don't say the Cleve land club is going to win the pen nant," he explained. "But It Is the strongest club in the league. It has fine defense and the best hitting strength in the circuit. Besides, that the pitching staff is about the best. so what else does It need; Pytlak didn't have a good year in 1934, but If he comes back next season, the Indians ought to win the pennant If the strongest club ought to win." And why didn't he expect the Tigers to repeat? "Everybody had a coed year for Mickey Cochrane." ,he said. "That's what made It possible for the Tigers to win. If anything had happened to the infield, they couldn't have won. It was these In fielders all click ing at once that gave Detroit the championship.
