BASEBALL SEASON'S DEALS CAUSE AS MUCH INTEREST AS THE PENNANT RACE

SAYS CORNELIUS RYAN

New York.

The 1959 baseball season brought more trades than any other season since before the war, and discussion and argument about the deals has caused as much interest as the major league pennant mces.

Some fans think that the Boston Braves cinched the National League pennant by their trade with the New York Giants; others are just as sure that the Giants got the better of the deal. Detroit seems to have bested the New York Yankees in their trade, but whether the Tigers will best the Yankees on the field is another question. The St Louis Browns and Philadelphin Athletics made a big trade, but both teams are as apathetic as ever. And there have been many smaller trades.

Brietly, the big ones were throwing arma in his outfield.
