By JUDSON BAILEY Associated Press Sports Writer The major leagues are heading into . the home stretch today with plenty of opportunity as well' as determination to shuffle the standings before the end of the season. There has been comparative ly little action on the field since the two big leagues took time out 10 days ago for the all-star show,' but this breathing spell has been used by many of the clubs to gird themselves for the grind ahead.

The Brooklyn Dodgers have undergone a house-cleaning that has sent Pitcher Bobo Newsom to the St. Louis Browns, Outfielder Joe Medwick to the New York Gi ants and Catcher Dee Moore to the PhUadelphia Phillies. Many other clubs, even the world champion St Louis Cardi nals, have dipped into the farm system for additional strength and some more moves of this character probably will be com pleted before the week is over. How all the changes- will add up in the standings remains to be seen, but both the Browns and Giants appear to be strengthened and hope to rise. Altogether 11 games ari on tan today and tonight with the east ern clubs of the National league heading into the west and the western clubs of the American league invading the east. - The Phillies and Pirates beat their rivals to the draw with a game at Pittsburgh last night which the Buccaneers captured 1-0 for Truett (Rip) Se well's 14th victory against two defeats.
