Will llurocher Oust Mollarthy With Yankees?

BY CHIP ROYAL

NEW YORK, Sept. l0—(AP) - The way baseball fans already are wagging their tongues about this and that player and manager, won- dering what's going to happen to them. etc., the fires should be hot- ter than ever in the old stove league

this winter. There are going to be many changes before another baseball

season rolls ‘round in i946 and the great American game grabs its share of the anticipated sports boom.

It's a pretty good bet that Joe McCarthv will be missing from the New York Yankees the coming sea- son. And don't be surprised if Leo Durocher ‘ls "Marsa" Joe's successor.

Larry MacPhaii. like everyone else, has been watching and ad- miring the fine job Leo turned in for Brooklyn this season. There's no doubt that “the Llp" is the man- ager of the year.

Of course, Branch Rickey knows all that too. and he may not. want to let Durocher go although he seemed willing to get rid of him before the season started.

It's a funny situation. When Rickey came to Brooklyn, he won- dered how he was going to get rid of Durocher, whom he had inher. lted from MacPhail, Some of the wiser cld_timers around the burg warned Brunch not to fire Leo because the action might hurt the attendance. Branch figured he'd keep Leo a year and then get. rid of him. The right manager wasn't available so the Illppy One was kept on "for the duration." The ferocious gentleman has done so well with a nine that finished sev- enth In 1044 that he'll have to be retained another vear unless some other boss takes him off Rickey?» hands.

The records show Leo went on to win the nod as No. l manager of the 1939 season by bringing the lodgers in third. In 1940, his team finished second and in 1941 they won the first pennant for Brook. lyn since 1020.

The Bums also were clicking on all cylinders in 1942 and won more games than any othrr Flatbush outfit (104), but It was only good enough for second in flu- league. In 1043. the team was third. Last year. tho Durccher-mcn were a poor seventh.

This season practically every baseball writer selected the Dod- Ber to wind up in the National League cellar. The team was about the same as i944. So what hap- (pens? The ferocious gentlemen go out and fight for the pennant!
