AR JUNIOR BASEBALL LEAGUE SEASON A; Team Won't Be Last,” Says Connie Mack, Athletic Leader of Philly Squad Says His Team Won't Finish in Basement, as Usual, | Year; Athletics Have -Looking Pitching Staff; How Quaker Team Up IILADELPHIA, April 1.—Connie Mack is sure his ball club will be better this year than last. As a matter of fact, Connie is of the opinion that he now has the best ball club that has represented the Athletics since 1914. In that year the Athletics won the pennant. Since then the club has} had a strangle hold on last place. Draw your own conclusions as to the si of Connie’s present team. “Sure the Athletics will be better this year than last. We couldn't get any worse.” That is the rather terse manner in which Mack dopes out his team of 1922. “My pitching is certain to be better. The staff will be about the same as last year, but will have benefited by a year’s experience,” continued outfield will be stronger a — there is plenty of reserve) bh.
