'“Until this year my advice to youngsters was to get with some 1 minor league team—no matter how | | ‘minor'—and play ball for all they | were worth. “Last year the leagues were so | scarce the kids found themselves competing against veterans who may have lacked good legs but out- | shone the young'uns in the think- |ing department.” | When Schalk was 20 he was es- tablished as first-string catcher for the Sox, handling the delivery of }.\ome of the biggest names in pitch- {ing history. | “I started in 1911 with Taylor- ille, Ill,, in the old Illinois-Michi- gan League,” he says, “and when leagues of this type wer going all | over the country, a note from any ball player would get a young hope- ful a tryout. “Today the situation is tough. I know young fellows 21 and 22 "years old who are good bets for any team, with a little seasoning, but they can’t get a spot in which |to display their ability. Three more |years and they'll be old men in baseball, as recruits go. “Another factor is that all the smaller leagues still operating are using a number of ex-big leaguers because their names are figured as ‘good box-office.’” Many of these older men are capable managers but can’t find a spot and are glad to chase flies for a job. “Maybe the answer is in more semi-pro ball,” Schalk mused. - SALE OF FUR COATS And furs starts Monday morning. | Prices less than cost.
