The Axemen will need this win to assure themselves of the league championship since they are only a game ahead of Salem's Vikings. Two weeks ago in Eu gene they handed the Bears their worst trouncing of the year and ' should rule as heavy favorites.

New York,- Feb. 21 (IB Base ball men seemed a mite surprised today that Manager Eddie Dyer of the St. Louis Cardinals named 34-year-old Terry Moore as team captain which must surprise both Dyer and Moore. . ' For the plain fact of the mat ter is that Dyer has believed as gospel all along that Moore would be his outfield pivot man when the Cards go out in April to start winning back that Na tional league flag from the Chi cago Cubs. "Our outfield certainly Is no problem' Dyer explained. "Moore will-be back." .. ...,.. Just like that the Texas man solved the situation.' And, when somebody wanted to . know whether Moore wasnt getting just a bit too decrepit, Eddie ex plained: "Sure, Terry soon will be 34 but he's just as fast as ever, he's smart and he'll cover as much ground as any of them. On top of that, Moore is just about the greatest team player in the ma jors today." That's a tipoff on how badly the Cards missed Moore when he enlisted in the army on May 31, 1943, after leading the Cards to a 1942 world series victory over the Yankees. ' The popular misconception was that with all the youngsters re turning to the Cardinal fold, and a sterling lot at that, such "old men" as Moore might find them- u Spring Samples Now On Display V .

But they were forgetting the fact that three years ago Terry was the best in the center field business. Okay, so you're a Di maggio fan. But they'd give you a red-hot argument in the Card inal camp. And two of the erst while St. Louis pilots, Billy South worth and. Ray Blades, are on record with assertions that Moore was the man for their money. So after talking with Dver. there never was a question but what Moore would wind up in the Card outfield. They like his spirit and his all-out team try. Senor Miguel Angel Gonzale," the Cardinal coach who gained linguistic lame with his "sroodfn. field, no hit" report on a rookie, hit it right on the head. "Terry? Oh, heeze great fel low. Great ball player. Never saw better wan. Ala time get ting better. Heet him on head, he never mind. Lots of what you say, gits. Mike make no mistake when, he see him first time. Alius lots of class. No bad habit. Fine man on team to have. Like ween alia time. Lose he know he do best. Can't ask what more of ball player." Mike is right, as usual. Moore is a ball player's ball player. He'll be in there battling to the final out every time, welding his team mates into one unit that meshes and even at 34 giving it plenty of pepper. That's because he has the can nlness of 60 and the frolicksome ness of 16. The answer would seem to be that Moore is a very young 34. Billiard Champ Near Big Money' Chicago, Feb. .21 (IP) Willie Hoppe, White Plains, N.

Feller was discharged from ser vice in time to pitch eight games lato last season, but he doesn't re gard that 'trial' as of sufficient length to provide a real answer as to the effects his long absence may have had on his pitching. . "Whether I'm as fast as ever is one of the things I think spring training is going to determine," Bob said In a frank evaluation of himself. "I believe I am, but then we'll see. Even If I am as fast as ever maybe I won't look it' to those on the bench or in the grand stand for I've got a lot bettor con trol than I had when I broke in."
