When Shea and Spud Chandler turned up with sore arms, Larry McPhait bought Bubo Newsum from the Senators and recalled Vic Raschl from Portland. The pair kepi a win siring suing until It hit the major league sensa tional high of 19. Don Johnson Is another splendid young right hander In this year's crop. Big Karl Drews la being helpful. The Bombers produced two young catchers in one campaign Yogi Berra and Ralph Houk, the former also something better than ade quate In the outfield. Houk Is the slickest of three Yankee backstops.
