v NI SDAY AT 18, 1928 AMERICAN LEA GUE rLti TAR MANAGERS DISCUSS CHANCES FOR SEASON| PAGE 17 ) Pitchers Only Worry for Harry W olverton Harry Gardner and Elmer ecobs Only Deceivers in — Condition; Other Departments Seem to Be BY LEO H. LASSEN ARRY WOLVERTON seems pretty well satisfied with the regular lineup of Indians the way it now stands, with the probable exception of the pitching staff. Wolverton may need another hurler or two to strengthen the mound departrnent. : But his catching, infield and outfield corps lJcok like they're just about set for the season. Ted Baldwin is a fixture at third unless he falls down at the plate. His fielding has been all to the gravy and if he can only pick up some in his work at the dish he will be one of the best third sackers in the league. i Hal Janvrin and Bill Orr around that second station look like fixtures, while it would|the slowest to round tno shape. take a pretty sweet first), Fimer Jacobs says that Sunday in s i ss a }his game against Sacramento was sacker to move the veteran |tne first time tix season that he “Doc"J ohnston off the bag.| nas been really abie to cut loose.

Carl Williams has shown enough ability In finishing up games during the first two weeks to warrant him being given a trial as & starter, The rest of the mound men have [yet to prove Shelr worth. If Wolverton can get another hurler to work in turn with Jacobs, Gardner, Blake and Gregg out of the ter now, much of the troubles of the Redskins at the present will be solved.
