Meusel were close to their prime,| Combs had t orange over about three-fourths of the outfield mak- ing catches. The Kentuckian’s only | handicap was his throwing arm| but Bob and the Babe were at least willing to rifle the ball back to the infield if Combs made the catch. Now that young Ben Chapman is playing on one side and the aging, much less nimble Mr. Ruth on the other, Combs needs all the speed he can muster to cover the outer reaches of the Yankee Sta- dium. Against Cleveland I saw the vet- eran in one inning race away over to right for a drive from Cissel's bat and then gallop to deep left to retrieve Porter's wallop that had bounced past Chapman for a triple. Cor broke a leg when he first came up to the big leagues from Louisville but you would mnever suspect it now from the way he gallops over the turf. He's the Man O War of the Yankee out- field. PLENTY OF CENTERFIELDERS Speaking of center fielders, Cleve- lor Tom Oliver of the Red Sox. land’s rangy Earl Averill covers ai considerable slice of ground. Hel is one of the best defensive men in the Amenican league although noted chiefly for his slugging abil- ity. There are few better ballhawkes than Mule Haas of the Athletics Kiki Cuyler is the best all-round| centerfielder in the National league a polished workman in every par- ticular, but Wally Berger of the Braves can go get 'em with any- body this season. The older circuit needs to make no apologies for its centerfielding anywhere with Pepper Martin, Liyd Waner, Taylor Douthitt, John- ny Frederick, Fred Lindstrom and George Davis, the Phillies’ new- comer, doing the odd turns and encores in the wide open spaces. RIVAL FOR HELENE Josephine McKim, the greatest mermaid ever developed by Harry| Greiser in the famous Balboa pool, Canal Zone, may not improve suf- ficiently to beat the famous Hel- ene Madison in the Yorthcoming Olympics but the indications point to much closer races between these two American stars as the big events draw near. | Josephine was a l4-year-old phe- nomenon when she competed in| the 1924 Olympics. She made the | 1928 American team, competing in the 400 meters and finishing third to Martha WNorelius. She National League St. Louis 1; Chicago 0. Philadelphia 4; New York 2. Only games tcheduled.
