GREY BEARDS ARE SHOWING Turner, Fette May Repeat —Quinn Recruits Other Old Men in Lineup By DILLON GRAHAM BRADENTON, Fla., Ap:il 6.—Bos- ton’s bargain-counter grey beards. Jim Turner and Lou Fetle, appe ready to re 1 old Bob Quinn again this season for lifting them out of the obscurity of the minor leagues. These twin sensations of the Na- tional league, who spent a lifelime in the muors before their chances came, were the rookie year —20-game winners e: il 193 and Franl ¢ and Charley Grimm, pilots with real money on hand to buy win- ning pitchers, were astonished last year at Quinn’s success in picking up this pair and being so hand- somely rewarded. But maybe they were one on flashes; perhaps hey'd lost too much sap from their pit arms in drudgery ot the munors. Old Men Are Wise It's too soon to tell, but, if ap- pearances mean sthing, Turner and Fette are going to be top- notch pitchers again this year. And Quinn has gambled on another pair of old-timers to go along with hem John Niggeling and Mil- urn Sheffner. And there’s Frank bler id Danny MacFayvden and Richard Merriwell Errickson These Bees may turn out to pos- the best pitching corps in the loon. These greybeards have cunning and control as well as curves. But they're on the other side of 30, the {anger mark in baseball. Turner Fette are approaching is almost Niggeling and r are nearly 33 ready for another good Turner said. “I've kept in year,” shape during the winter riding’ a milk truck. My arm feels fine. 1 was surprised at winning 20 games last season but I knew I was ready for the majors. The breaks will have to come my way for me to win 20 again, but, anyway, I'll win my share of games.” In. his rookie season Turner was the National league's outstanding pitcher, more effective than Hub- bell or Dean or Mungo or Warneke or Grissom. He had an ned-run average of 238 per 9-inning game. And he credits an accident with furnishing him with a climactic minor league season that caught Quinn’s eye. “A batted ball struck my right hand, breaking the second finge he explained. “A lump developed over that broken joint but the fin- ger didn’t hurt and so I didn't have it reset. And ever since then I've had a better curve ball. “I've been able to get a better grip on the ball and I developed a real hook. T used to have to rely on | the ‘hard one’ and the smart boys would lay back and wait for it, but now when they're looking for the fast one I can slip ’em the hooker.” OW ‘BOSSIES’ but Officer E. B.
