THURSDAY, OCTOBER 12, BIG DEALS INPLAYERS ARE MADE By RALPH RODE NEW YORK, Oct. 12—P—The major league’s annual post-season reconstruction project is moving along in high gear today. Six teams have done some vig- orous house cleaning with the New York. Giants wielding the biggest broom. The Giants who finished a strong third in the National League, pulled off a $125,000 deal involving seven minor league players. In a drive to bolster their reserve strength, the Polo Grounders pried three players from the Champion Oakland Oaks of the Pacific Coast League. Coming to the Giants are Cuban Negro Catcher Ray Noble; Artie Wilson, a Negro shortstop; and vet- eran righthander Allen Gettel. Come to Coast In exchange the Giants shipped Cash, outfielder-first baseman Joe Lafata and Bert Hass and right- handed pitchers Wes Bailey and Bill Ayers from their pennant win- ning Minneapolis American Associa- tion farm to Oakland. A quirk of the transaction is that the Giants sold Noble to the Oaks last year for probably less than $10,000. Noble, valued at approxi- mately $75,000 by Oakland, was re- garded as the best catcher in the Coast League. He hit .316 and drove in 79 runs. Deal by Phillies The Philadelphia Phillies also snapped the rubber band on Presi- dent Bob Carpenter’s bankroll by shelling out $40,000 to land a highly( regarded prospect, Tom Casagrande cof Fordham University. Casagrande, a 20-year-old left- hander, was sought by 10 other major league clubs. He also is a terrific hitter. The majority of the remaining deals involved major league clubs and their farm units. The prime motive was to protect prospects from the minor leaghe draft. Another for Coast Brooklyn sent pitcher Mal Mal- lette and cash to their Hollywood Coast League affiliate for Jim Baxes, one of the best fielding third base- men in the minors. The Boston Red Sox sold the contract of their former star right- hander Dave (Boo) Ferriss to their Louisville farm in the American Association. The Sox also purchased Al Richter, good-field no-hit shortstop and pitcher Ben Flowers from Louis- ville.
