Cleveland, with all its veterans having their best years, upset the apple cart. Now the Yanks, with Joe DiMag- gio still the big question mark, are an uncertain factor. Boston and| Cleveland are the teams to beat. BATS PACK WALLOP If the Red Sox get consistent pitching they have the power to break the race wide open. The big bats of Ted Williams, Vern Step- hens and Bobby Doerr pack a tre- mendous wallop. Joe McCarthy, starting his sec- ond year as Sox manager, figures to get more pitching help from Tex Hughson and Mickey Harris, who were of little value last season.
