March 31 (Spe cial) The Springfield citv baseball tenra defeated tho Thurston team with a. score of 14 to 8 in a game fcundny at Thurston. This is the sec j end game of the sennon, nnd the sec i ml victory, nnd the train is working tip into fine trim.

As far as the tmntumwcigtit title is concerned, it seems to be a case of one champion after another, and the quicker tho better.

Philadelphia American 10; .Haiti more International it. New York American II; Brooklyn! National 8. j Detroit American 0; Richmond Va. i 3. I New York National 13; Washington vme.Ian 3. i CT. r New York Yankees, headed by the irrepresible Babe Ruth, are un doubtedly the most colorful aggrega tion in the American League. After viewing a workout followed by a five-inning game between the Regulars and Yanigans, I waB im pressed by several things. rirst, the spirit of the ball club. There was more fire and "pep" to the practice session than I ever Bay the Yanks show in a regular game. In baseball, enthusiasm for the game overcomes many of the handi caps that arise. The Yanks always have had greatness, now to be aug mented with enthusiasm. There is a comradery on the team that makes for harmony. Star mingles with rookie on equal terms. For five years the Yankees have had the ability. The reverse of last season appears to have supplied the inuch-needed asset, enthusiasm. Urban Shocker, former pitching ace of the St, Louis Browns, secur ed in trade for Joe Bush never look ed better. Shocker goes about his work with a deriousiiCHH that in the past has been lacking. He seems to realize that this is bis big chance. He's no longer a youngster. Apparently the mo n tent he was traded to the Yankees he began get ting in shape. He weighs 178 pounds. Ijast year at this time he weighed close to 195. He works best at 175. ! Shocker is evidently bent on prov-1 ing to the world at large. St. Louis in particular, thnt Manager , Huggins made a wise trade. Pitching is a great asset. At times last season the Yanks were a bit shy on it. If Shocker can win from 15 to 20 games, and he should, the pennant chances of New York will be materially increased. There will be a keen rivalry be tween Shocker nnd .Toe Bitsh this summer. Pitching duels between these two should furnish some of the best battles of the year. Other things I observed were: The speed of Outfielder Karl Combs, de spite his broken leg of last year. The agility .shown by Everett Scott at shortstop, who has I'dUi consecu tive games to bis credit. The excellent condition in which nil the veteran stars of last son pod ap pear to be, the pitching Htnff in par ticular. The work of Stove O'Neill buck of Ihe hat. lie is in splendid .uliupo. will lie of great value in catching Shock er, and should be n big help to Wnlly Schang, and The "get-there' spirit of Rob Men set, who has as much natural ability as any player that ever put on a pair of spiked shoes. Baseball is a serious proposition with Bob this year. These thing, us well es many others, will make it npparent to the onlooker that the Yankees expect to win the American League pennant but not without a struggle.
