'.ILtS., '103 304,000,000 gallons a year ago. The big increase daring the ye,ar has been doe in Urge part to ship ments of gasoline from California. The point to be considered in this connection' is . the ' willingness of the Standard of New Jersey to in crease ; its stocks of gasoline , by large purchases on the Pacific coast and by continuing the oper ation of its own plants at high speed. Other oil . men consider Standard of New Jersey's gasoline policy significant, and they bellere the Jersey company has the gaso line situation in Its own hands. 4 There are. sere ral other refiners along the east coast, such as the Standard Oil of New York, Atlan tic Refining and Sinclair, buti their ownership of ; gasoline ", is small, compared with that of the Standard of New Jersey. 4 In addition to its gasoline on the east coast, the Jersey company has a large amount In storage on the Gulf coast through subsidiary companies. There are 350.000.000 gallons in storage in the last named area, large quantities of which are owned by Humble Oil and Standard Oil Company : of Louisiana, controlled by Standard Oil .of New Jersey. .: v The 410,000,000 gallons in stor age on the east coast are more than 20 per cent of the 1.850,- 000,000 gallons in storage In this qai tct J- 3 : -'V Coupe - I i Telephone Reg.

Ocntnl Preu Sports Editor . I know my Infield .will be stronger the day the season starts. My outfield can hit if it doesn't register A-l In fielding. I have good catching. I am not satisfied with my pitching. We will too there most of the season. 'That's all I can say now." Such is the frank sizeup of his team made tav Tv Cobb, manaeer of the; Tigers,' after 1 had .watched1 his team in action during an exhi bition game at Asheville, N. C. , "Blue will be at first, of course. I'm going : to statt O'Rourke at second because of hla experience. Tavener win start 1 the" season at short. And either Warner or Mul- lin at third. This will give me a better in field, as far as defense is con cerned than I had last summer. Our team lacked good fielding last season. " . . 'Heilmann and Wingo will play the outfield regularly and when I am not In center Fothergill prob ably will be my, choice.' I ' have Bassler, Manlon and Woodall ready for duty behind the plate. ; ". ; J "I'm satisfied with, that layout. "Detroit teams always have had weak pitching. The club still has. The earned runs allowed by the pitchers -of the various teams last year show that. I am hoping-this year, however, that we will get better pitching." i Cobb's discussion of the prob- at)le makeup of his team brought out many interesting angles. I had Just seen both Jack Warner, pur chased with Clyde Bar foot from Vernon - last winter for . 340,000 and a handful of players,and Bill Mullen. Fort Worth star, perform part of the game at third 4ase Warner started and looked mighty sweet. Mullen followed and gave a brilliant account of himself. Warner seems to have the edge now but I understand that Mullen Is of the type that starts slowly needs a few weeks' of real ball to put -him' at his best. But "both caq bit. . . . , And this makes Cobb happy. For years he sought In' vain someone who could play third base properly and carry his end of the batting at the same lime. Now he finds him self with two young men who seem ready to pftay the last corner as it should be played and who can add a bit to, rather. than detract from, the batting power of the team. : ' The probabilities are that Warner will start the season at third. While O'Rourke is destined to open the season at second young Charlie Geh ringer, obtained from Toronto, will break into the key-' -IMS Fireproof Storage Fuel Transfer Coal and Dry Wood at Reasonable Prices Cralog -WLocaT and loag -Ilaidmg--Moving 143 South Liberty ; ; : -r ; r Operation Makes SBattihgEye O.

Operation has, removed the scar that -was drawing the skin tight about Joe's left eye, and the . heavy-hitter will no longer have tp "stoop to conquer" the ball. Harris got the injury as a doughboy in France. New photo (top) when contrasted with the. other, shows the change. stone job before many weeks. Cobb simply wants to .give the young man nlenty of time to acclimate himself before givtng the opposi tion a chance to upset him by send ing him off to a -bad start. Jimmy Tavener 'has the short- stopping job nailed tothe mast. Timer Rigney has 'lost it. Should the little mite fall into a slump or ret hurt the probabilities are that either O'Rourke or Warner will be sent to short ratherthan Rigney. This after Rigney loomed two years ago as the man of the hour In Detroit.

InVt addition - to O'Rourke and . Gehringer Cobb can also use Burke, another young in fielder who. is a mighty sweet little actor around second. . ""Real reason all around for Cobb to feel Satisfied with his Inner de fense the ; most : vital part of a team's general defense. Wingo and Heilmann are fix tures in the outfield, of course. In addition to these sweet hitters Cobb has Fothergill and Manush. While the Tiger boss now plans to send the, former to center in his stead for a time at least, Manush may alternate with Fothergill or Wingo. - In addition to these vets Cobb has Art Ruble, obtained from the Charlotte club last fall.' Ruble is flue for a year's seasoning in fast minor league ball before he will draw a uermanent berth. So much for the' satisfactory sec tions of the Tigers. 'As for the pitchers about whom Cobb himself is worrying. i The men destined to fight It out for regular berths are the grand old veteran, George Dauss, Edwin Wells.' Earl Whitehill. Lil Stoner and Ken Halloway. Rip Collins, a veteran of parts, Samuel Gibson and George Smith, obtained from the Toronto club, and Clyde Bar- foot,, purchased from the Vernon Coast League club, complete the TOster. ,Dauss, as usual, will be a war horse for work.
