KEYSTONE SACKER 1S IMPORTANT HiAN Shortstop Also Plays Big Part i Baseball Lineap A Major league ball club without a competent shortstop or second base- man plays under a serious handicap. This fact was proved in the case of the Detroit club last season. Inability to get a regular, capable of going at top speed and second base, undoubted- Iy hurt the Tygers' chances. Perhaps more ball games arc lost by faulty work around second base than any other position in the infleld. An incompetent shortstop or second baseman can create sueh a situation around the keystone sack. . s e Last scason second base was the big problem at Detroit, aside from pitch- ing. This year it may be shortstop or both. . At the start of last season Topper Rigney of Detroit was regarded as one of the coming stars of the American league, the most promising shortstop in yew Thea® came trouble with his hip shortly after the season opened that kept him out of the game for several weeks. The club suffered in his ab- sence. On his return to the game he seem- ed to still feel the effects of his trou- ble, Working under such u strain his play naturaily suffered, However, at the close of lhe season he seemed to have recovered his bril- liant form and worry over the short- stop problem seemed to have been clearcd up by Manager Cobb, . 0. At various tunes during tae winter report scame from the south that Rigney's physical conditfon was not of the hest, that there had becn a return of the hip trouble, e = The truth of such reports to he borne out by & reccit happening at Augusta, Ga., the training camp of the Tygers. Rigney has been ordered north to consuylt a noted specialist in thehope that he may be putin shape to sturt the season, 10 Rigney is unable to play it will be a tough break for the Tygers, who sure have pennant possibilities. Weakness at short and second \yuuld’ Just about ruin Detroit's chancos regardless of the great strength of the club in other departs ments of play, It seems Manager Cobb is not alone in s shortstop worries. John Mc. Graw, famous leader of the New York Glants, also appears a bit perturbed, Last winter McGraw traded Dave Bancroft, the most valuable shortstop in the National league, to Boston to Lielp his pitehing and outfield, The passing of Bancroft put the| | ghortstop problem up to the sensation- al youngster, Travis Jackson, McGraw said he would Al the bill, | " ov o Reports from the south by the New | York bascball experts state Jackson is having trouble getting started, It would be almost a tragedy for Mc-| Gradw if he faled to come through| nfter the Master Mind cut leose from Baneroft | YANK GIRLS RETURN, | New York, March 25,~=Mombers the American women's hockey teum which has been touring England and I"rance, returned yesterday on the President Harding., The team playcd 15 and lost 14.
