RENEGAR (Acsociated Press Sports Writer) ATLANTA, TFeb. 7—The oll timer who often wonders wheore famous baseball stars of other years have gone will find many familiar names in the box scores of Dixie minor league clubs this season. There will e Heinle Groh, Guy Morton, Bert Niehoff, “Death Val- ley” Jim Scott, Dave Danforth. Wilbur Good, Gabby Street, Polly McLarry, Rube Robinson, Milton Stock, Paul Strand, Wilbur Jen- kins and others of the “Big. Pa- rade” appearing in the Southern Association, Southeastern Leagu-, South Atlantic Association an:d other lineups in the South. To this list there has been in- formal talk of adding Ty Cobb if he does not return to the majors. The “Georgia Peach,” who is in splendid physical condition as a result of continuous outdoor sports since the close of his season wirh the Philadelphia Athletics last year, might come to the minors as a player, but the greater pos- sibility is that he would be in the role of an owner-player. Cobb now belongs to the mil- lionaire class and often has talk- ed of buying a club and if he should do this it probably would be in the Southern Association. R. J. Spiller, owner of the Atlan ta Southern Association Crackers, has been discussing the advan- tages of having the Georgian on one of the league’s teams. Cobb, however, is silent as to his plans. With wllat is reported the largz- est salary ever paid in the South Atlantic, Groh will manage the Charlotte, N. M., team and is ex- pected to hold down one of the infield positions. At various timcs with the New York Giants and the Cincinnati Reds, the veteran, now 39 .years old, played second base, shortstop and third base. “Death Valley” Jim Scott, foi- mer Chicago National hdrler, wiil be starting his 22nd season in or ganized baseball as a member of the New Orleans Southern Associ- ation pitching staff. For ome of his team mates he has Dave Dan- forth, once ome of the St. Louis Browns' star pitchers.
