And even here in Washington, where | Georgetown is doing very little and Maryland is way below par, one school bids fair to go far above its standards of previous seasons. The outlook for the sport generally seems to be ex- ceptional. for Clyde Sukeforth, their catcher, and | Red Lucas, a pitcher. | The most indispensable players in| the Western section of the circuit are| Charlie Gelbert of St. Louis, Riges| Stephenson of Chicago and Pie Tray-| nor of Pittsburgh. Closely following them are Hack Wilson, Chicago: Lloyd | ‘Wane~ Pittsburgh, and Frankie Frisch, | 5t | fe. He's Tough in Pinch. Chicago might win the pennant with- | out Stephenson, vet opposing pitchers | will tell you that they had rather take | & chance on any other batter on the Cubs’ team when there are runners| on the bases. Dazzy Vance says that| Stephenson hits more wickedly against | him than any man in the game. The| Chicago outfielder has been criticized as having a weak arm, but his timely | and deadly execution with his bat more | than compensates for this. Wilson will be_indispensable to Chi- cago as long as he remains a clean-up batter on the short fields. If either he | or Stephenson were out for any length of time it would likely cost the Cubs | the pennant. If they do not win the flag this year there will probably be a | great tearing up and knocking to pieces | of this club next year, for it cannot go | much further without something of that kind happening to it. | Gelbert should be the 1 the greatest that ever stood upon an infield. His work this Spring was bril- | liant, yet it wes only a taste of what | is to come. Frisch is quite as necessary | to the Cardinals. The combination of | Prish and Gelbert against a base run- | ner is like the spider against the fly. Traynor a Bulwark. ‘Without third base properly guarded the Pirates weuld sag like the flag of a captured ship. Traynor fills the bill. And without Waner Pittsburgh is another team, as has been proved. He is the best lightweight player in the ‘history of base ball. To get over to the East, Bill Terry takes the leading and necessary role for the New York Giants. Although not the best first baseman ever to play the game, he is high up among the ‘best of these days. His batting is what holds him so well up, but he has im- proved in fielding also, so he has made a double stride toward the realm of the immortals. Glenn Wright is the indispersable for the Brooklyn Robins. He made the team last season, and without him this season it will surely sag. Put another| shortstop on Brooklyn who is less of a ground coverer and the team would be | in a bad way. Next to Wright is Fred- erick in center fleld.

Not only is this veteran s good as he | ever was, but his spirit is unflagging end his inspiration unquenchable. He | keeps the team in constant energy.

Again he stepped up to the ball, and again came that deep “ha-ha.” He stroked the il and missed the hole, according to Fovler, by many, many inches. ‘lnen he went searching for the cause of the horze laugh, or sheep laugh, as it turned out to be, and he saw over in the barn- yard a big ram with a droll expression on his face laughing his sides out at the confident assertion of any golfer o | that he could hole a 15-foot down-hill putt. And that, boys and girls, is the origin of the “ha-ha’ shot. But that fermer would better insure that sheep.
