But having escaped with at least & portion of his command intact, he ex- pects to rebuild his lines ana get going again. He figures that hs club, after a long, steady clip, was due for a "siump, and that it is now about ready to swing back into the track again. He is looking, for a stronger offense from Zim, Good, Sajer and others, with a return to steadier pitching. Presnahan is a good hustler, and he has enough good material to make a “fight of it over the fuli distance. He hasn’t a great machine—but he has cne of consistent ' power—and con- gistency will be the winning factor in a race minus any sign of brilliancy... Th great Zim has been batting of late with his oldtime smash. In Zim and Shulte the Cubs may not have the two hardest hitters in the game, but they have the two who béyond any cthers, barring Lajole, carry the finest rbythm and grace known to the art of bringing a bat around in the gen- eral direction of a flyipg ball.
