33 PLAYERS ARE ON LIST- - AND EIGHT MUST LOSE ouT Noone So lmpressi;'e That Four Catchers May Be Carried and Bush, Valuable for Many Reasons, Is Sure of Sticking. BY DENMAN THOMPSON. AMPA, Fiz, March 8—Second in interest only to competition among the ten recruit flingers Sor the jobs available as understudies to the regulars—Johuson, Mogridge, Zachary, Erickson and Courtney— will be the struggles for utility berths in the other sectors—infield, out- field and catching. ‘With Gharrity, Picinich and Torres held over from last season, when they comprised the entire receiving staff, the task of young Freddy Noone, District sandlot star, to remain on the pay roll is rendered difficult if the corps is to be limited to three. Gharrity is such a horse for work- that iwo backstops would suffice for the Griffmen if there were a guarantee against accidents, with Pat toiling in practically every game except double-headers and the occasions Johnson officiates, when- Picinich is impressed into service because his superior ability enables him to handle Keen Competition Promised fo . 5 \ to quit mor relax on Walter’s speed more effectively. But the presence of a third man 1s imperative owing to the ever pres- ent possibility of injuries, as was il- lustrated last year when Gharrity was incapacitated for several weeks, and 1o the fact that there always is a certain amount of routine work re- ‘quired with pitchers in the bull pen. Torres not only has the ability to &0 back of the bat and give a very creditable exhibition in a champion- ship game, but is available for use at first base in an emergency and for pinch hitting purposes, especially against southpaws. May Carry Four Catchers. Noone shows so much promise, particularly as a batsman, that it may be decided this year to carry four catchers—most big leagues club do— and later on he is to be given a chance to show how he sizes up as Both an inflelder and gardener. With Noone it is largely a question of Wwhether he may be expected to de- velop faster absorbing big league strategy from the bench or working regularly in some circuit of lower classification. In the latter event a stout string will be attached to him, for Clark Griffith is convinced the quiet youngster is going to develop into a whale of a hitter some daw ‘With the infield definitely settled— Judge, Harris, Peck and Shanks— the contest there lies among Bush, La Motte and Bluege, and this really 1s only a two-man fight, for there is chance for either of the others to displace Bush. This veteran of fourteen grueling seasons of big league service is in some respects a remarkable athlete. Although still comparatively young in years, having been born in Indianapolis in 1888, Bush is one of the oldest players in point of service in the big show, ‘where the pace is fast and the suc- cessive seasons take a heavy toll on the vitality of a regular. ~ His once steady hand now is a trifie uncertain, the formerly keen eye blurs a bit and the legs that for years were sturdy and fleet show the effects of wear and tear. Donle is slipping. but he still is a powed to be reckoned with in the main show at a point where nine of ten others would be doomed to the sticks, and the reason for it is indomjtable fighting spirit. Bush Is Full of Fight. Bush does not know what it means e ‘diamond. He has the “will to win” in a maxi- mum quantity out of all proportion to his diminutive size and is ome of the smartest men in base ball His scrappy nature, coupled with his ‘thorough mastery of the game, makes him an ideal man for pep-instilling purposes and for the coacher’s box, ‘where his intimate knowledge of the strong and weak points of all vet- erans among the opposition will prove invaluable. / But the value of Bush is not con- fined to /his pugnacity and initiative as a coach, for he has the ability to travel at a fast pace for & short period and the experience to plug a hole at either second, third or short| c . in the event iliness or mishaps should shelve one of the regulars. Nor would the team be materially weak- ened in attacking power with him in service, for, although never a hard hibition games with the Boston Braves, which will open here March 18. He has an able assistant in Fred Harveycutter. The Nationals’ first game with the Hyb team at St. Pe- ersburg will be the occasion for the dedication of the new Florida State League ball park there, which is the | I 8pring tasp of the Braves. Some cere- monies are planned. Grifith yesterday was a guest at the luncheon of the Rotary Club where he suggested that some Na- tional League team be enlisted to share the use of Plant Field with the Griffmen and make Tampa the perma- nent spring training base of two ma- Jor league clubs, with the civic or- ganizations of the city recelving the receipts from all exhibition games; A Utility Berths With Nationals: New York .

The Nationals have:been notified by Commissioner Landis that to comply with a new regulation prohibiting the farming of a player for more than two seasoms in succession the club must acquire or dispose gf title to the services of Pitcher Davey Crock- «tt, the young Oklahoman who re- ceived a trial here in 1920.

BENTON HARBOR BOUT BARRED BY GOVERNOR LANSING, Mich.,, March 8.—Gov. oesbeck has denied a request from residents of Benton Harbor that a proposed boxing match there next July 4 be afproved.

Gets Lots of Passes. Judge alone of the Nationals last season drew more passes than Bush— sixty-eight as against fifty-seven, and Joe played in twenty-six more games —and Donie tied Josephus for topi honors in runs scored with sixty-| seven. Bush always can be depended .upon to do something to worry t he enemy, even_if it's just getting the| goat of an alien hurler. As between La Motte and Bluege, not enough has been seen of the lat- ter. to determine what his capabilities it already is established that . Wotto is a fast, flashy flelder. but * of doubtful batting ability, and pres- ent indications are that the same is true of his young rival from Peoria. If Bluege develops any unlooked-for prowess with the stick it is possible that both he and. Lamotte will be carried, as Bob and Deeby Foss were last year. Three Extra Outficlders. line slated for the regular garden posts, the Nationals have three extra patrolmen in Gobel, Smitk and Brow- er. Goebel probably is the best fly- chaser on the roster and has youth in his favor, being only twenty-three, but although he excels as a ball hawk, ranks with Rice in spéed and is the equal of Smith in throwing, he Jacks the knowledge of big league ‘ways possessed by the others. Brower is not a good fielder and n torily at if necessary. Smith is a far better ball player than he proved himself to be with the Na- tionals last year. His showing thgn can be explained only by the theory that he had an off-season. He has one of the best wings in the league, gets a ball away as quickly as any player in the game and, until he slumped to .252 last season, had a lifetime batting average of .278. Eight Due to Lose Out. There now are thirty-three names on the roster of the Nationals, includ- ing Altrock, whos although he does ot figure in the hox.scores, is sign- ed to a regulation players contract, and J. W.
