The fancier who is interested in the propagating of game or ornamen- tal birds, will not only be recompens- ed by the pleasure of having the birds about, but will find that they provide @ small income as well, Erickson said. Most varieties are'easily reared and kept in confinement, especially phea- sants which may be roughly divided into two classes; first, the ones that are essentially game birds (ringnecks, mutants, etc.) and second, the so- called ornamental class (goldens, sil- vers, Lady Amherst, Reeves, versi- color and others).

The Saints’ pitching staff is the envy of the league and the lineup packs plenty of punch. “We have a batting order that won't give opposing pitchers a single breathing spell,” said Street, who piloted the St. Louis Car- dinals to a world’s championship. Monty Stratton and Lee Stine, back- bone of last year’s pitching corps, advanced to the majors, The staff now comprises Phil Weinert, Art Her- ring, J.

Huck Betts, with St. Paul before he went to Boston a few years ago, has been sold back to the locals but may quit the game to take care of his business, The catching will be handled by Bob Fenner, veteran, and John Pasek, optioned to the International League last year. The latter is superior be- hind the plate but Fenner excels at bat. Offensive and defensive strength have been added to both the infield and outfield. Harry Steinbacher of the Coast league is a newcomer in leftfield and his hitting will help. Larry Rosenthal, center, and Chick Shiver, right, are the two other out- fielders, with Bill Norman and Fred- die Koster as reserves, Phil Todt is having keen competi- tion from Mickey Rocco for the first base position, although the veteran is expected to start. Jackie Warner is back at second and Bill McWilliams and Bob Boken will handle the hot corner.
