Oscar Vitt has played good ball. However, most of the third sackers in this league are veterans who are going back. Johnny Jones, of Portland. is easily the class of the shortstops, with Hal Rhyne of San Francisco second choice. Sammy Crane has played ball but has been out considerably with injuries and has a tenden to be erratic. OUTFIELD Merlin Kopp, the Sacramento ace, is the best all-around outfielder of the year. He's leading the league jin stolen bases and runs scored and {s a whale of an outfielder. Paul Strand and Brick Eldred get the other outfield posts on their hit- ting, the pair of them befng won- derful stickers, CATCHERS Archie Yelle, the Seal star, best catcher in the Jeague, all-around wonder. Art Koehler, of Sacramento, is the most-improved player of the year. He ha» been the league's best hit- ting catcher thruout the season and there's little fault to be found with his receiving. PITCHERS Herc’s the tough job and one that's merely personal opinton: I think Ray Kremer, the Oakland righthander, deserves first place for his remarkable pitching. He's a great hurler. Elmar Jacobs, comes next. He's righthander and like Kremer has done excellent work with a club that's lost more games than it has won Ira.Courtney, the long Seal south- is the He's an Seattle's best, another fine paw, is the best portsider of the year, Watler Mails has been streaky and the same goes for Jakie May, altho May had mis- erable support. Pat Shea, the San Francisco righthander, !s a great hurler and has been hard to beat. Bill Prough, the foxy Sacramento veteran, is still a master and can’t be left out. Rube Yarrison, the Portland un- derhanded hurler, has also had a good yeer and is the best bet on the Rose City staff. ‘There are many other fine pitch- ers—Harry Gardner, Suds Suther- land, Doug McWheeney, Bill hand, will pass Wagner’s mark’ aft- er 19 years of play, spotting the for- mer Pittsburg star more than 300 games. In alt probability, Cobb will play f~ & regular for two or three more years. While he has slowed up con- siderably, he still retains his batting eye, so it looks as if the Detroit manager would set a mark that will stand much longer than did that of Wagner. Small Turnout Handicap to Queen Anne Grid W ork By Jack Hohenberg N trouble comes at all, it mes in large do: and, con- ntly, Queen Anne’s’chances for the championship are not as bright as they might be. Disqualification mainstays have played havoc with the hopes of the maroon and orange. Coach L.

Queen ') ball championship are just so-so. Coach L, 'T. Iwaechter has lined up a team which will give every eleven on the schedule a tussl Many changes have been made by the new mentor, the most important of these being the shifting of Bruce Johnson, husky fullback, to left end. Johnson has always been considered a first-rate fullback, but should make good at the new berth, He is cut out for an end berth, with his height, weight and ability to handle interference, ‘This move of Coach Saalwacchter should wor out advantageously for all parties. ‘The line is more or loss settled at the present time, with some posl- tions still open for struggle, John: son will hold down one end and eorge Chase, Gallagher and Rich iurdson will fight it out for the other, Pete Desimon, 200-pound guard, has been shifted out to tadkle, and will hold down one of these posts, THarrivon Jenks may hold down the other, At guard, Hal Snyder, chunky 170-pounder, and dick Arwine look to have it. over the other candidajes,.altho there is yoom for much improvement, Hughes, Moses Yellowhorse, Tom Hughes, George Lyons—but I think the six named, at least in my opinion, rank above them in alle around effectiveness. UTILITY For extra men I would put Buzz Artlett, of Oakland, Leslie Sheehan of Salt Lake and Ed Hemmingway of Sacramento on the list. Arlett can still pitch, but does his best work with the bat and he can be used In the outfield. Sheehan can play in any !nfield or outfield post- tion and Hemmingway is an excel- lent all-around infielder. And Shee han can hit and Hemmingway cat run those bases, WHITE SOX GET COLLEGE STAR Charles Link, a pitcher for the University of Indiona, will be given & trial with the Chicago White Sox next spring.
