Itlrkey to strengthen tho hurling
ntalf. the Ht. Louis Cardinals ap
peur to be little stronger for this
year's National league drive than
in ItiiM, when they finished sixth.
The hilling of tho team la at sea
bun wax good and thn fielding
fair. The pitching generally was
considered the weak link. Al
though several new hurling pros
pects are to receive tryouts, be
sides which Duster Mails, veteran
southpaw, has been obtained from
Oakland, tho outlook as a whole Is
uncurtain In this respect.
Of the veteran twirling talent,
IHekermon and Sothoron pitched
fairly good ball last season. Oth
ers wno will be laek uro Haines,
Hlierdel, Htuart and Oyer.
Mike Gonzales, the Cuban, is ex
pected to do the bulk of the catch
ing this year.
The Cardinals will train at
SHm'IUoii,. cal., where they will
wither on or about February 22.
