After our little dissertation on the Cleveland Iritfians last, week

league clubs and Just see ho trades might affect their squads.
What better team could we begin with than the World Cham

Monmouth, was discharged the other day. Ford was a spectacular1
rookie m 1B51, winning nine games in a row. Also figuring in
Casey Stengel's confidence is Tom Gorman, and then there is, as
always, Bob Kuzava, once more a World's Series hero. Add these
hurlers to the Yanks' Big Three Ed Lopat, Allie Reynolds and Vic'
Raschi and It appears as though the Yanks will have another potent!
pm-iung siail.
Yanks Want Infielder . . .
Knowing that they cannot get a top-flight pitcher, the Yankees
would like to pick ap another first-class infielder. They are not
looking for another first baseman. They are not eyeing another
second sacker. Nellie Tax is not to be had. With Andy Carey and
Jim Brldeweser behind Phil Rizzuto, the World's champs are well
enough situated around short That leaves the third base situa
tion open to consideration. 1 some club, especially Washington,
were to show a willingness to talk about a thlfd baseman, it would
find ready listeners in George M. Weiss and Casey Stengel
No more need be said about the status of the Yank outfield.
Gene Woodling, Hank Bauer, and Mickey Mantle may almost be
considered fixtures.
Takes Two To Trade ...
Of course, It takes two to make a trade. It is conceivable that

return of Ford and the influx of minor league talent, the New JuT'itrJllTT '
