Ot the huge school of rookies who recelved tryouts a year ago, only about & dozen proved capable of holding their own in the big time. /Several, however, were sensational. Vernon Gomez of | the Yankees and Paul Derringer of the | Cardinals were among the outstanding | pitchers in their respective leagues. Other first year men who made good included Johnny Vergez, Giants' third baseman; Joe Vosmik, Cleveland out- fielder; Dibrell Williams, ~Athletics' shortstop, and Irving Burns and Joe Levey of the Browns' infield. It is boys like those the managers are hop- ing to find under a stray bat bag. The Yankees and the Detroit Tigers of the American league, and St. Louls, Chicago, New York and Boston of the National appear to have snared more potential stars during the Winter than any of their rivals. Chances are that one of those named will come up With the year's “prize rookie,” a distinction that last year generally was conceded to “Lefty" Gomez. FRANK CROSETTI and Jack Saltz- ver, a pair of high-priced young- gt‘ers from San Prancisco and St. Paul, respectively, are expected to step into regular posts in the Yankees' in- field. Saltzgaver hit .340 last year and was touted as the best infielder in the American Association. The Chicago Cubs expect great things from a trio of infielders, Stanley Hack, Bill Herman and Harry Taylor, Bll of whom bore fancy price tags. Herman, who finished the 1931 season with the Cubs, is being groomed to supplant Manager Rogers Hornsby at second * base. Another who make the grade with the Cubs is Lyle “Bud” Tinning, a righthander who won 24 games and lost only 2 for Des Molnes last year. Jerome “Dizzy” Dean, the most pub- licized rookie of the year; Ray Starr and “Tex” Carleton are three new pitchers counted upon to make the £t. Louis Cardinals’ following forget Bur- leigh Grimes. Eddie Delker is regard- ed as & fine infield prospect and may win a regular job at third base with the champions. The Boston Braves are counting | strongly upon new material. Art Shires, purchased from Milwaukee, already is a fixture at first base. Fritz Knothe from Portland and Bill Akers from Kansas City also are due to make | strong bids for infield positions. Os- car Eckhardt, a .369 hitter from the Mission Club of the Coast League, looks like the best of the Braves’ out- | fleld acquisitions. BRACE of promising pitchers and | an outfielder are expected to make the grade with the New York Giants. Sam Gibson, who won 28 games for San Francisco in 1931, and Jim Mooney, who won 7 out of 8 games after joining the Giants late in the year, should bolster McGraw's mound | staff. Leonard Koenecke, who hit .354 | with Indianapolis last year, is the out- field prospect. | Brooklyn has promise of some im- mediate help from a quartet of pitch- ers imported from its Hartford farm, Earl Mattingly, Van Mungo, Phil Gal- | livan and Sam Krider. They set phe- | nomenal records last year in the Eastern League. Pittsourgh's outstanding recruits ap- pear to be Bill Harris and Leon Chag- | non, pitchers, and David Barbee, an outfielder drafted from Hoilywood. Harris pitched four games for the Pi-| rates late last season and won two | of them by shutouts. Chagnon won | 20 and lost 10 for Fort Worth in the | Texas League. | Neither Cincinnati nor the Philadel- | phia Nationals acquired any partic- ularly brilliant prospects. The Reds'| best bet appears to be the 35-years-old catcher, Clyde Manion, who was drafted from Milwaukee. The Phils obtained a | pair of promising outfielders in Doug Taitt, who finished the 1931 season with | them, and George Davis, who hit .343 with St. Paul. | HE Chicago White Sox are counting | on Carey Selph to jump into a reg- | ular job at second base, pmvldm” they can talk him into reporting. He| played with Houston last year and was voted the most valuable player in the Texas League, but at last accounts was talking of quitting the game rather than | join the Sox. The club appears to have picked up a promising outfielder in| Bruce Campbell, who hit .381 for Little | Rock last season. | Detroit’s leading prospect is Ken Strong. a slugging gardener purchased from Toronto. He batted .345 last year, | including 28 doubles, 15 triples and 8| home runs. Isidore Goldstein, who won 16 and lost 11 games for Beaumont, | and Joyner White, an outfielder from the same club, who Jed the Texas League in stolen bases and triples, also are highly regarded by Manager Bucky Harris. ‘The Philadelphia Athletics carried a | light crew of rookies to camp at Fort | Myers, but Manager Connie Mack hopes | o uncover one or two good ones in the | lot. Oscar Roettger, first baseman pur- chased from St. Paul, and Parke Cole- man, an outfielder who hit .358 for Portland, look like the best. Cleveland's hopes are wrapped up in Bruce Con- natser, a first baseman from New Orleans, who may supplant Eddie Mor- gan at the initial sack. OHN DASHIELL, an infielder, who J hit 325 for Chattanooga in 1931, and George Stumpf, a slugging out- | fielder from Quincy, are Boston Red Sox rospects. The St. Louls Browns have Pouts Polli, a pitcher who won 21 games for Milwaukee last year, and Robert Cooney, who won 17 and lost 9 for Wichita Falls. Monte Weaver, the big righthander who pitched 21 victories for Baltimore, is regarded as the out- season had rolled 463. Kolb's games were 173, 158 and 137. The other record goes to the Regent Girls of Baltimore, who, at the Lucky Strike here, rolled a 5,222 total for 10 | games while defeating the Bill Wood | team of the Women’s District League | § recently.
