In Majeske, he asserts, the Bees have a lad who may force the bet- eran Tony Cuccinello to move from second base to some other infield position. The rookie’s performance last sea- son reminded Hulswitt of Otto Knabe, with whom the Boston scout teamed on the Philadelphia club managed by Hugh Duffy back in 1904. “Maeski is just like Otto and wouldn't think of giving the other guy an even break,” enthused Scout Hulswitt. “He’s shoft and blocky, {and I've seen base-runners bounce A 26 38 ALASKA EMPIRE, MOND AY, JAN. 30, 1939.

ONE BASKETBALL | " SCIENTIST GETS " GAME POINTERS MILWAUKEE, Wis., Jan. 30.—Bill Chandler, Marquette University bas- ketball coach, makes all kinds of | experiments on his squad. | Chandler, in his ninth season at Marquette, is a basketball scientist. | With the aid of assistant managers | he has prepared charts that enable | him to survey his athletes for re- | ! actions, trends and habits. Among the things Chandler has{ | discovered are: : 1. There is a definite relationship | between basket-shooting perform- | ance and scholastic ability, with the better students as the better marks- man. | | 2. Players who need improvement | most are the ones who improve most 5 during a season. | |, 3. Senior athletes rarely improve: sophomores and juniors show the most improvement. 4. The boy who is best marks- men in practice is rarely the best |in a game; the best competitor shows little difference between his practice | and game performances. | 5. A team is at its wrost in prac- | | tice after a victory, at its best after | & defeat. ‘ ‘ 6. When a team has a full week | in which to prepare for a game, it is; !always at | | Wednesday. | 7.
