Scribe Says Cards Wont Won't Sell Trade D Yet or Dizzy t I By DAVIS VIS J. J WALSH International News Sports Editor NEW YORK Nov 4 Without 4 knowing slightest slig test thing about bout it except for a few arresting utterances I happened upon in inthe inthe he the the papers it is the writers writer's writ rs r's studied opinion that the St. St Louis Cardinals have neither the intention nor the desire to trade Dizzy Dean to anybody at any time within within these six months or the next To me their public announcement that lat the Dean is on the market was done one less for its effect upon the league eague than it was upon the player Frankly I think 7 t t's ts 5 a Id attempt to stand off the bite when the salary thing comes up and the league must think so too lt j Anyhow It Iti i v seems significant jl that nobody has Alt publicly offered to take this half half- million dollar in incubus incubus in- in cubus off the Cardinals Cardinals' hands v l. l Dizzy Dean or or orso so go i t Irad rd read an outburst here to the effect that the Giants Giants' most c certainly were to acquire Dean before the opening of the 1937 seas season season n and moreover would do so with without sacrificing Carl HubbelL In fewer words the intimation intimation inti inti- mation w was s that they were ere going t to buy the De Dean n it b being ing explained a that the Cards were tired of paying the mans man's salary salar and b that the league recognized that it needed his s appeal sucker in New York The latter sounds like the juice of two lemons squeezed into a half tumbler of straight hair groom As a matter of ot fact there are three deals St St. Louis could m make ke kefor I for the Dean and only one of ot them would be j justified It could deal dea with the Reds foe fOl Derringer and perhaps Riggs although just what kind of a third base Dean could pitch for the Reds in place of Riggs is another matter It is equally questionable wh whether ther Derringer could and would hold up the Cards' Cards staff as Dean can and will do The same considerations apply both ways to the talk of Mung Mungo and of ot the Dodgers figuring in a. a RD aD aDean Dean an n deal a. a RD aD aDean Dean an n deal A straight pitcher for and for Dean Hubbell for trade probably would interest the Cards if it not the Giants Giants and and dont don't think the Giants wouldn't like some of that turnstile turnstile turn turn- stile money that Dean represents The Cards might want to make the trade trad because they would be ridding themselves of a man who is something something something some some- thing of ot a necessary nuisance in exchange for a a. star left-hander left which they vitally need Nevertheless no deal of that kind ever was made in the history of baseball and I dont don't think they're going to start now For one thing the Cards got the strength they want wanted d in Lon Warneke and gave up nothing they needed For another another an an- other only atrocious luck beat them In 1936 and 1936 and theres there's no way of making a a. trade trade for that You just forget about it and start all allover allover ov over r again
