McCarthy explained that he plans on making his fight with the team which won last year, but that if last years combination proves ineffective, it will be time to do something drastic. McCarthy refused to elaborate on his drastic measures, but it is held likely that if the club cant get back in 1939 form it will be shaken up and replacements brought in from the club farm system. by Western Newspaper Union.

Then, however, the worlds championship team went into a slump. Sad to say, a slump feeds on itself. It can begin with one man and spread to a greater part of the team. But its not in the cards for men like Bill Dickey, Joe Gordon, and Charlie Keller to fail when the,, chips are down. Players like these usually snap out of it in a hurry-o- ne or two good days and theyre back in hitting form. McCarthy doesnt expect to have .to take any unusual steps. He .wont be satisfied with a two or three-wee- k He winning streak. wants the Yankees to climb on top and stay there. He knows theyre a team that can do it. Its about the same club that ran away from ;both leagues last year, with superlative players in every department. This statement invoked discussion as to how the government intended to foot the necessarily large bill of any such program. A defense-ta- x movement has been gaining ground in congress. This is a comon the subject by plete about-fac- e tiie legislators! When.Jhe first pro- - Jinx Three-Wa- y Dickey, Gordon and Keller agree with McCarthy that their troubles were in trying too hard. They agree, too, that the slump will wear itself out and the Yanks will be on their way. Through the middle of May, Dickey was hitting slightly more than .100. That was a mark to break the heart of one of deadliest baseballs crucial hitters. Joe Gordon wasnt doing imuch better, and the second year jinx apparently had visited Charley Keller. Keller finished the 1939 season with a batting average of .334 and blasted out three home runs in the World Series against Cincinnati, at a .438 clip in the fall classic. This year he visited the sidelines, benched by McCarthy for weak hitting after chalking up a .231 mark in 21 games. McCarthy cant understand why pitching should play a very important part in the Yanks slump. They beat southpaws 36 times last year and lost only 14 decisions to them. But while the Yanks were at their worst they dropped AI ,their tenth game to Smith of the Cleveland Indians, being on the short end of a 10 to 2 count. A slump is hard to explain, whether it hits one man or the whole team. The Yanks dont intend to do any explaining. Theyre 'out to win ball games.
