BROWNS WILL LEAVE CELLAR, CLAIMS GABBY Manager Tells All About It in Article Written for Baseball Fans By GABBY STREE Manager, St. Leuis Browns SAN ANTONIO, Tex., April 18.— Improvement of the St. Louis Browns' inner defense by some 50 percent, plus some spirit they haven't known for years, should pull my boys out of the cellar this sea- son. Our club is greatly improved over last year’s team. They've con- ditioned themselves like real champions down here this spring and we'll have no excuses from that angle. The important factor to me is the spirit of the boys. Say, they've got much higher ambitions for this year than eighth piace and with them feeling that way, T can't sec to save me how we're going to finish kack in the celiar. Don't I don't say re world beaters in any sense . but theyre going to surprise a lot of those boys up there first division. in the I'm preud of that keystone com- bination of Red Kress at short and Roy Hughes at second base. Base hits won't be as plentiful around that territory as they were las year. They should make a great doubls play combination, but not until they have played with each other lon encugh to sense the other’s action ahead of {ime. You den't meet & girl and marry her overnight, and that’s the same way with doublc play men around second base. The; have to know each other. How about the American leaguc 1w things can happen tc bs belween now and October I don't see how any club can push ahead of the Yankees. But if any one of three of their important cogs fail to come through because of injuries or something else, therell be the Detroit Tigers to deal with, and if that pitching staff Oscar Vitt has over at Cleveland comes through, those Indians will be heard from plenty. When Luke Appling hurt him- self, he also hurt Chicago’s chances to climb higher in the race. Now about the Browns, again There'll be more than one morning in 1638 when teams in the Ameri- can league will wake up with an unpleasant “Brown taste” in theit mouths and minds. e — VOTE FOR McCORMICK Vote for John McCormick for Representative, Democratic Ticket, Primary Election April 26.

Folta started out for a walk up Sheep Creek basin Saturday after- noon, and today reported that it turned out to be a workout rather than a constitutional. But it was worth $20 so he didn't mind so much. That is, it will be worth $20 when the Territorial Treasury gets some more money in the wolf bounty tax fund to make good the bounty war- rant Folta collected this morning Everything was pertect, including the rest he was taking about a miie and a half up in Sheep Creek basin, when the Prosecutor got his woif the first one taken in that area this season. He spied the animal on the mountain side about 500 yards away while taking life easy, Attempting to approach closer, the animal sighted him and started run- ning. Out of four shots, two took ef- fect. After climbing up to get the wolt .which he dispatched with a final bullet, the official found that he had torgotten his knife, and then the workout started. He carried the ani- mal ,weighing around 85 pounds, the mile and half down to the Thane road beacause he had nothing with which to skin him “I Just started out for a walk,” commented the Prosecutor as he moved his shoulders with caution an- this morning, “but it turned out to . be work, but perhaps. I can buy| | enough liniment for $20 to remedy ‘ t hese aching muscles.” ————-— Juneau Woman’s Club Luncheon Held Tomorrow New Memb;?Are to Be Hostesses at Affair in Percy’s Cafe New Members of the Juncau Wo- man’s Club will be hostesses at a » lunchecn to be given at 1:15 o'clock omorrow afternoon at Percy's Cafe.
