McNair played most of last sea- son. Williams has been a reszrve infielder, but with Bishop gone he probably will draw down the regu- llm- second base post. Bl L to be swung in the National League it’s a good idea to be within call- ing distance of Branch Rickey, the manager of the Farm Board and Home Loan Departments of | the Si. Louis Cardinal organization. | Rickey is a born trader, a rest-| less spirit always on the lookout for a new deal. If he cant’ swap| anything eise he will swap base-/ ball yarns until he has softened! lup his man to the point of mak- {ing a trade with him. Generally \he is three trades ahead of the, other fellow. Rickey and his boss, Sam Brea- don, traded off Rogers Hornsby | for Frankie Frisch when everyone | said they were getting the worst of it. The answer is that Frisch, now the Cardinal manager, played with championship Cardinal teams when Hornsby was through as a ball player. Rickey has made mis- takes, but not often. Consequently it isn't strange to find him announcing the first im- portant major league deal of this {winter by which the Cardinals get | sluzging Virgil Davis in exchanze ;tor capable Jimmy Wilson in the backstopping department. From now until the major league magnates ease their aching feet around the hotel lobbies of Chi- cago for the annual pow Wow, Branch Rickey will be found in the ra, King of the ring. “The wrestli —in action. !

PHILLY FLOGGER It’s like taking a scuttle of coal to Wilkes-Barre to announce that the Philliss Have taken title to an- other slugging outfielder. In the last few years the Phil- have slugged themselves no- where with great ferocity. Any one who looked at the batting averages and then noted the stand- ing of the teams might gain the idea that the Phillies were batter- ing each other instead of opposing teams. They can give and take a lot of punishment. To make things more compli- cated the new Phillie flogger is a Hawaiian and a “prince” of the royal line. Or nearly so. His name is Henry K. Oana. He ran up a lot of impressive totals for Port- land, leading the coast league in extra base hits, 103, and runs bat- ted in, 163.

WHAT SAY NOW? Talling, About AllStar-| Teams—Chicago Bowl- ing Fans Have Word CHICAGO, Jan. 4— When it comes to “all-star” combinations in sport, Chicago bowling fans bounce right up with a nomination for Chuck Collier’s famous Mineral- ites. i Among other distinctions, the Mineralites boast a complete line- up of men who have each rolled at least two “perfect” games of ten- pins. Rolling in the Randolph lzague here, one of the country's fastest circuits, the team captured 28 of its first 30 games, winning the first 25 in a row before being stopped Johnny Good: by the Wagner and Hansen five an, N Open Golf champion. Barney Ross won lightweight, crown from Topy Canzoneria —the same outfit which checkedI a 19-game win streak a year ago! In these first 30 matches lhey‘i compiled a team average of 1,032,| equal to 206-plus per player. In the Midwest Bowling tourna- | ment at Kansas City the show-| ing was even more remarkable. They finished third in the team event with 3,000, took second, and fourth and eighth in the doubles, and fourth and seventh in the in- dividual competition, As for the all-events at Kansasi City, members of the squad had a| grand average for the 45 games in- volved of 211.367 Jake Fliger, Harry Steers and Frank Kartheiser are the veterans of the quintet, and Billy Rusch and Bud Wright supply the young blood. Collier, as captain, does not play regularly, but can hold his own as a pinch-hitter. - — NOTiCE Telephone number 1603 for pipe thawing or general plumbing. —adv. W. J. MANTHEY.
