"THEM'S TH' SKIS ASH PE USET'OWN ! $ Lazzeri Gefs Rap At Gianfs Wil It SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 21.—Tony | Lazzeri, brand new Brooklyn base- ball baby, has hopped into the per- ennial insult-tossing contest be- tween his club and the New York Giants. He predicted a second di- vision finnsh for the Giants this year if Pitchers Hal Schumacher and Carl Hubbell fail to return to | form. “As I see it, the Giants chances| are framed by a big question mar said the Dodgers’ thirty-five-year old recruit who is beginning his fourteenth season in the major leagues “Hubbell and Schumacher have had to have their pitching arms re- paired. There is a question they will be able to hit their peak. So what? Well, for one thing, the Giants may find themselves in the embarrassing position of having their ears knocked down frequently. It will be a pleasure. You see, I am getting that Brooklyn feeling al- ready.” Like an old firehorse pensioned to pasture who jumps every time a bell rings, Lazzeri is getting the spring fidgets.

Second high score went to Mrs. Lavenik who was only nosed out by a two-man combination of Radde and Hendricks playing on her side. Other high individual count was marked by R. Ward of the Account- ants Final pin count was 2503 to 2434 for the losers. Keeping all games within the middle range the Architects and Judges rolled out some close con- tests albeit the scores were not too exciting. Last two games went to the Architects, the final one by a mar- gin of 10 pins. Only bowler to poke his nose above the 500 mark was Stevens of the Judiciary.

After twelve years with the Yankees and the 1938 stay with the Cubs, Lazzeri thinks he has plenty ot baseball left in him. He is join- | ing Brooklyn with the idea of tak- ing over the duties of regular sec- ond baseman. Pain in Neck Last year’s sojourn at Chicago is still a pain in the neck to the vet- | eran who starred in six world’s se- ries as a Yankee. He contends he was going good when he was yanked out of the lineup to become a bench and side- line fixture. From this year's observation of the National League clubs, he picks the Cubs as the team to beat for the pennant last season. Naturally he hopes to be able to help Brook- lyn pop into the thick of the battle BUNCHED HITS BRING WIN FOR EMIL'S BOWLERS Although the Juneau Florist trio kept above the 500 team mark they dropped two games to Emil's boy who bunched their hits in the firs and last, games. The flower team kept on an even keel, chalking a 508, 501, 503 for the three stanzas Middle episode was theirs due to a 584 score posted by the winners. High game went to Emil Galao who fell only eight points short of the coveted 600 individual tally. Alt Heidelberg started off with a real burst in their match with the Brunswick club. They tobagonned 100 points in the second game which turned out to be the only one where they stacked on the short end. Best. individual score the bowlers could furnish was a 517 by Hildinger.

LOUIS, Feb. 21.—Although their spring training season begins in less than two weeks, the St | Louis Cardinals still have some im- | portant business ahead—getting Joe Medwick satisfied for 1939. What's more, the Cardinals have not even sent their star slugger a contract y Vice-President and General Manager Branch Rickey ' said “We'll have to get around to that very soon now,” Rickey said. He de- nied the club had talked terms with Medwick before the outfielder left for Florida several weeks ago. Last year Medwick was signed to a contract at St. Petersburg, Fal, by President Sam Breadon just as the Cards’ training season was get- ting under way. The Cardinals train at St. Petersburg again this year. Rickey again denied that the tak- jing of a job associated with the Brooklyn Dodgers minor league clubs by his son, Branch Rickey, Jr., indicated there was any friction within the Cards’ official family. “Nuts,’ he asserted. “The boy join- ed the Brooklyn club because he got a better job there than was i Franklin D.
