FARRELL TRADED 10 BOSTON TEAM NeGraw Completes Biggest Player Swap of Current Season New York, June 13 (»—Bent on adding battery strength to a club which is strong everywhere else, John McGraw of the Giants has just completed the biggest player swap of the current season with the Boss ton Braves. Word from Cincinnati where the deal was closed that McGraw Is to zive his crack young inflelder, Eddle Farrell “to boot” with two of his chiet pitching disappointments to et a pitcher, catcher and second rate infielder is seen here as indicat- | ing the keenness of McGraw's desire to find the Giants some good pitch- | ing and catching. Few players have struck the pop- ular fancy here as Eddie Farrell has in als brief Giant career. Graduat- ing from the University ot Pennsyl- vania School of Dentistry last year after leading his college nine, Far- rell fitted into the big time clrcuit as though made to order. Getting his real test this season when Travis Jackson was kept out of his shortstop post by illness, “the doc” filled his shoes so well Jackson hardly was missed. The young col- leglan was replaced by Jackson as a regular only when he suffered an injured knee. Farrell now is the second best hitter in his league with a mark of .387. The pitchers McGraw is trading away both have failed to deliver. Kent Greenfleld, a youngster, failed to continue the good work of last year and Hugh McQuillan was er- ratic and not so obedient to fleld orders as McGraw would like to have him. In exchange for the three the Giants get Benton, a pitcher who is better than average, and Taylor, one of the best catchers in the league. Like McGraw, Rogers Hornsby sees the trade as a beneficial one. 1In addition the Glants get Thomas, a rookie infielder who may be put out for seasoning somewhere with a possibility McGraw will recall Andy Cohen, now ‘with the Buffalo International league club and the leading hitter of that circuit, for utility purposes. Judge Emil Fuchs and Manager Bancroft of the Braves also are well pleased with the deal, being glad to have the promising young Farrell and having confidence that the pitchers will produce in their en- vironment. As the trade is effective at «snl‘al the fans will be able to judge the re- spective merits of the deal from the testimony of the box scores forth- with. Y. M. C. A.
