Under the direction of General Manager Branch Rickey, the head- 5 has been moved from Danville, Ill, to Springfiled, Mo. The new location, farther south, will increase the chances of betier weather for the spring assembly of talent. It will also be closer to the system’s big minor league ral- lying ground, Houston, where the Columbus, Rochester and Houston clubs will train in 1932. The Cardinals are building a $10,000 clubhouse at Springfield. It will be equipped to take care of nearly 300 young and ambitious ball players, picked up from the schools, the sandlots and semi- pro ranks all over the country.

The lucky 300 pay their own expenses to camp, where they are equipped and bearded by the Cardinals so long as they are on trial. Los Angeles, Breadon's chief scout, Charles Barrett, told him, is the happy hunting ground for as- piring ball players. Barrett, spread- ing the gospel, talked to a group meeting attended by 150 managers of semi-pro clubs in Los Angeles district. The youngsters get a real chance to devglop in Southern Cal- ifornia, where baseball can be played the year ’round.

Look over the list of college stars who have kept in the line- ups or the headlines of the pro- fessional game.
