REST OF SQUAD IS JUST ORDINAR BY DEAN SNYDER On paper the Robins don't look ro good. But what is that to your Uncle Wilbert? The old boy is 67 and fat, but heart ts young and his diges § tion perfect. Last spring the experts looked athletes over and guessed may- |be he'd be a first division club, but they never mentioned anything about a Flatbush pennant, Then it seemed that any team playing in the same wheel with the rapid-fire clicking of the World Champion Reds would be an also ran. Yet the Superbas have turned out to be the cream in the National league crock—they rose to the ba MOUND ACES TURN TRICK a Good pitching has turned the, | trick for them. ‘The failure of the Cine! a hurlers to “bear down” hard enough at times, coupled with some care leas ball playing, has helped Ui Wilbert Robinson to breeze along. The Robins have five pitchers that came thru the first half of) the race with averages above the 500 mark.

The regulars — will have first call on the series *) sales—that is, those who can show by their rain checks that they have been steady visitors. Ebbetts field will seat 27,000 peo ple.
