occupied by another member of
the St. Louis Cardinals second
baseman Al (Red) Schoendienst.
The skinny redhead, back in
the Card lineup after a aiege of
Injuries, is hammering away at
a .382 clip. He has rapped out 28
hits In 73 times at bat through
games Including those of Sun
day, May 15.
i Schoendienst replaced team
mate Eddie Kazak, who led the
pack last week. The rookie
Card third baseman dropped 49
points from his .387 figure of a
week ago and haa dropped down
mto sixth spot with .338.

Ailing Heel Next
Week for Yankees
New York, May 18 UP) Joe
DIMaggio will don his familiar
'No. B" New York Yankee uni
form next week and try out the
ailing heel that has kept him on
the sidelines since the season's
start.
The test probably will deter
mine the immediate baseball
future of the fence-punishing
outfielder, whose $90,000-a-year
salary makes him the most ox-
pensive bench-warmer in the
business.
In the meantime, the Yankees
have no intention of putting him
on any sort of formal shelf un
til there is definite proof he
won't be able to produce.
"DiMaggio is going to be on
my team until he can't play any
more," Manager Casey Stengel
said last night shortly before the
Yankees nudged the champion
Cleveland Indians, 4-3.
Shortly afterwards, Traveling
Secretary Arthur (Red) Patter-,
son announced that a new X-rajr
examination of Joe's heel showm
ed "improvement."
