Are in Line. By Denman Thompson. E of the trio of newcomers who are expected to contest with Milan, Rice and Lewis, veteranflychasers, for a berth in the garden with Nationals this year has taken the first step neces- sary in this difficult assignment by sending in his signed contract. He is Eddie Goebel, the Brooklyn voungster, purchased last fall on the trength of the showing he made with the Springfield club of the Eastern League. Goebel exprcssed himself as well satisfied with the terms offered, said he welcomed the chance_to demonstrate his worth and voiced the opinion that if try- ing hard alone were necessary he would be with the team all 'season. soebel’s spirit is commendabl proper frame of mind is an essential for u youngster trying to break into fast company, but 1 dis- cover that what he faces con- siderable task when he starts to match his wares against those past masters of the art of gardening who are slated for patrol duty, and the same applies to Bob McHugh and Bing Miller, the other strungers who will don the uniforms of a major league team for the first time at Tampa in March, provided Judge Landis rules against the claim of Pittsburgh in the e of Mille Veterans Are ¥ormidable.

Milan and Lewis are quite well along in years and cannot be expected to travel at top spced throughout the stretch of the campaign without an occasional acation. Both have reached the stage of brittleness where they are more than ordinarily prone to mishaps and iliness, and it will be essential to have some one hanging around ready to step in and fill their shoes in the event of accident. This assures a merry battle between the trio of new- comers already lined up, and there may be more to battle with them before the start south is made. Signs Younx Infielder. That President Griflith does not in- tend to stand pat on the twenty-nine athletes he recently named as com- | poging his Tampa squad is shown by his announcement that he has added another candidate for an infield berth in the person of Tony Marhafka, a native of Shamokin, Pa., in the coal { belt, which has produced so many able {diamond performers. Marhafka last season was a member of the Bethle- hem team of the Steel League. His work at shortfield in that circuit was such that him a. fine chance to make good in fast company.

It was said he intended to open negotiations with other clubs, including the St. Louis Browns, for a series of trading deals, but no fur- ther mention is made of the proposed swap with the Nationals. ‘Business Manager Shettsline, in giv- ing out the schedule of exhibition games for the Phillies, anuounces that two will be played with the Na. tionals in Gainesville in March two more at Jacksonville. This as- gures the Nationals a total of half a dozen contests with the Quakers in addition to the seven listed with the New York Giants, for Griff's plans call for at least two games with Bill Donovan's henchmen in Tampa.

Track Records May Go. records likely to_be broken in the mnear future include the high Jump—the trick to be turned by Lan- don.
