PXGB TWELVE irETVFORD WATL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON", FRIDAY, MARCH 17, 1933. YOUNG TALENT ON DETROIT PAYROLL E Bucky Harris Says 1933 Edition of Tigers Finest Team He's Ever Managed Rowe Is Hurling Find By BILL PARKER (Associated Press flports Writer.) BAN ANTONIO. Tel.. Mar. 17. Wl A kid battery, inspired by the mana gerial wisdom and confidence of "Bucky" Harrla, and the offensive and defensive punch of a young Infield and outfield, causes Bucky Harls of the Detroit Tigers to say without qualification this year's team la the finest he ever has managed. Hpeed a Feature. "The Tigers have speed on the bases, speed and punch In the out field, with a balanced Infield and a splendid mixture of veterans and youths on the pitching staff." ex plained Harris, "and believe me. I ex pect them to make trouble for any team nursing any ideas about the American league pennant." The pitching part of the kid bat tery will be Iiynwood "Schoolboy" Rowe from Beaumont, of. the Texus league, where last year ha won IB and lost 7, Harris has enthroned Rows M the king of pitching rookies. He firmly believes this 309-pound rlghtmander will demolish much of Cleveland's and Philadelphia's batting power and do a fair job of eradication against the Yankees. Rowe has a side-arm cave and fast ball, with a stout heart and rest for pltohlng. lias Own Catcher. Frank Relber, Beaumont catcher last year. Is the other half of the kid battery. Harris will carry Relber on the payroll especially to catch Rowe. Relber batted .315 last year. Veteran hurlers who are assured of positions are Thomas Bridges, who pitched an almost perfect game xor Detroit last year and finished with the low earned -run average of 3.30: Charles Planer, secured from St. Louis; Fred Marberry. formerly with Washington: Elon Hogsett, Victor Sorrel, George Utile snd John Whit low Wyatt. Ra? Hayworth Is expected to re tain his first string catching Job and Eugene Deasutels will be his relief. First end second are not problems. Harry Davis at first and Charlie Oeh rtnger at second form An combina tion. Davis Fine Fielder. Davis, classified by Harris as one of the finest fielders In the Amer ican league, Is expected to raise his batttng average above last year's .300. Oehrtnger. a great fielder and con sistent hitter, Is the pillar of the In field. . Henry Oreenberg, giant 310-pound Beaumont first baseman last year, Is the Infield gamble for third base. Cat-aid Walkor In left, Ervln Fox In oenter and John Stone in right settled Harris' outfield problem. Wal ker and Stone were with, the Tigers last year. Fox played with Beaumont and his .3 67 average led the Texas league in hitting. $30,000 FIRE LOSS PORTLAND BUILDING PORTIjAND, Mar. 17. ) Loss estimated by city Investigators at 130,000 was caused by fire which broke out today In the six-story Hughes building in the downtown district.
