SPORTS. Cubs Figure to Lan Bill Killefer Must Ffll Two Weak Infield Spots Club Should Be Contender With Giants, Pirates and Reds, If Competent Second Sacker and Third Baseman Are Found Among Rookie: This is the thivd of a series of articles dealing with wajor league teams. and written by cxperts with the teams representing leading newspapers of the country. BY OSCAR C. REICHOW, Staff Correspondent of the Chicago Daily News. HICAGO. April 6—Just where the Cubs will finish in the National League race this scason depends almost wholly on Manager Kil- lefer's success in filling two spots—third and second base. Aside from these two positions, he appears to be competently fortified with | first-class material. If he plugs up the gaps mentioned there is every !, reason to believe the Cubs will give battle to New York, Pittshurgh and Cincinnati for the championship. i It is imperative that Manager Killefer dig up efficient men for third and second. He has divested himself of his veteran infielders to develop recruits. The retirement of Zeb Terry. a smart and clever hitting player. also adds to his problem of shaping up his inuer defense, so that it will he capable of mecting the best in the league. To do this will be a task, for the men sclected for the positions apparently require further sea- soning to make the team as effective as it would be with tried plavers filling the positions.
