SPORTS. " Hendricks Enthusiastic Over Reds : Eastern High Has Large Base Ball Squad PILOT ASSERTS CINCINNATI WILL LAND IN THE MONEY| Manager Cites Added Specd and Higher Morale of the Club and Claims It Has the Best Pitching Staff in National League. | | By the Assoriated Pre RLANDO, Fla, March Jack Hendricks, manager of the Cin- O cinnati National League base ball club, believes that he has the greatest pitching staff in ‘his circuit and that the Reds will finish in third place or higher. “A vear ago this time there were dark days in the Reds' training camp,” he said today. “It was then that Pat Moran died. Cincinnati had been fed up on a championship ball club that it did not have. This is no alibi. While the team suffered terribly from illness and injury, yet | it did not have the ability to finish higher than it did. It was aging— that team. Lack of speed cost many close games. “Now we have added speed. The morale is higher. The spirit is better. No club has a chance to get anywhere without spirit. It is my belief that it is not necessary to have an all-star cast to win if you have the spirit on your team. In Zitman, the young outfielder purchased from Newark; Dressen, bought from St. Paul, and Critz, who starred for us last year we have started right getting youth and speed on the clud. “The death of our fleld captain, Jake Daubert, was a great loss. We are not experimenting with Bressler at first base as the public thinks. I helieve Bressler will fill the bill bet- ter than any busher we could buy.

De Vaughn, manager of | VERY mode of transportation used by outdoorsmen for vacations in | E the wilderness was originally used, not for pleasure trips, but for work. The early explorers used the canoe many years before it was thought of as a pleasure vehicle. Pack trains carried the meager belongings of prospectors and explorers over the mountains when moun- tains were still barriers, not scenery. The last mode of wilderness travel to be adapted to the vacationist is the dog team. Still, the dog team i destined soon to be used to a great extent for vacations in the Winter woods. This is the view of Donald Hough, who traveled for 150 miles through the interior of the Superior National Forest last Winter by dog team. He and several companions took the trip as a vacation and to test the practicability of the dog team as an adjunct te the vaca- tionist. “Just as pack trains, snowsho canoes and other water craflt have been taken up by the vacationist, so will the dog team,” he says. Winter, according to Mr. Hough, is the Ideal time for vacations in the North woods. Lack of mosquitoes, hot weather and portages are some of the advantages, he cites. He de- clares that once you are out In It cold weather soon loses its terrors. Dog teams are not overly expen- sive, and he points out that by club. bing together groups of vacationists could own a couple of teams, each group taking one trip a Winter.
