CUETO SHOULD DELIVER s Like Vean Gregg, Manuel Cueto may be some time in hitting the stride that he showed in the National league three or four years ago. He has been out of baseball for some timé, altho it is said ‘that He has played in Cuba. He is one of the most versatile players in the game, being able to fill any infield or outfield berth acceptably. He is a .300 hitter and a darn good base runner. He will be sent to third base if he-hits true stride. From all accounts he should deliver. CATCHERS CERTAIN The only department on tile “ Seattle club that Is set for the 1922 season is the catching staff. Frank Tobin, Ed Spencer and Jack Adams are all raring to go. Don't be surprised if Tobin catches more games than either of the others. He is a real comer and a hard worker. Spencer will be carried because of his hitting, but the big boy will have to snap into things more this year to hold his job, even if he is a .300 hit- ter.

Coach Leader haa given no word about even a tentative lineup among the squad which is reporting, but one combination has been observed to work together regularly, manning the Merrily, one of Washington's fastest speed boats.
