I read tn The Star the list of 29 players sold to the major leagues, and from these 29 I have picked the team for the third column. Also, f believe it to be the best of the three I have sub- mitted, or the best that could be picked from the league, for that matter. ‘The papers are all talking about our classy third sackers, and you will note I have them all, except James. 1 believe Bues would make a bet ter firsteacker than third, anynow, and Coveman has shown he can play second.

The idea of playing Bues on first is not a new sone, as the New York Giants have been figuring on making the slugger Into a first-sacker, according to report. The outfield could not be improved on, and Burns and Whaling are about the best catchers in the league.
