PXGE BIS MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON, MONDAY, MARCH 27, "1933. READY FOR BASEBALL WARS EDM.- EARLYSPLURGE Team Looks Fine On Defense But Are Hitless Wonders Of Training Period To Date Kids Look Good, By ALAN OOULD Associated Press Sports Editor There was a time when the Boston Braves could count upon burning up the "Rrapefrult league" and come north full of confidence and enthusl' asm, only to crack up along about May or June and take a quicx aive In the general direction or tne tlonal league cellar. If there Is anything In the theory of onnosltes or the law of reverses, the Braves should follow up their mediocre exhibition so far In Florida by going on the warpath as soon as the pennant hunt begins. Illtleas Wonders TJn to date they have been the "hit. less wonders" of Bt. Petersburg, al, lowing even for th contrast and nan dlcan of being tossed into action al- . most dally against the powerhouse of the world champion YanKeca. ue fenslvely. Manager Bill McKechnle could aslc for no more than hla men have shown. It would not seem he needs to worry much about hla pitch, lng staff, If at all, Judging from the sensational development 01 one two newcomers, Including d Fellen, stein, who wasn't considered Impor tant enough to be put on the club roster at first. But "Wllklnsburg Will," now facing the last year under his four-year con, tract to rebuild, the club, Is still look. lng for the batting punch the Braves must acquire to pull thomsolves out of the second division. Many Trades Made If it doesn't materialize, McKechnle cannot blame the Bravea' popular president, Judge Emll E. Puclia, who engineered a number of off-season deals at hla manager's suggestion and gambled to the tune of 60,000 on the ability of a pair of rooms lnneiaers, Dick Gyselman and Allien wngnt, from Ban Francisco. . The Judge, with some misgivings, bought burly Frank Hogan from the Giants to reinforce the catching and slugging departments. He has retain ed the temperamental Art omres, largely on the belief that Art can aten In with a timely waiiop u ter Jordan doesn't fulfill expectations as a first hue regular. To afford a wider assortment of outfield talent with a punch, Fuchs obtained tvjo good hitters from the pacino coaai, league. Art Hunt and Bob Holland, but neither has troubled tho Florida , fences so far. Gyselman Is "Find" Oyselmon, a rangy youngster, seems a real "find." He Is a naraer nuier than Wright, his 20-year-old team mate with the Missions, and looks to be the choice for third baso over tne veteran Frlta Knothe. Since the olub nmda Maranvllle'a pepper, the "Ban mlt," twice Wright's age, probably will atari the season again at second base, meanwhile teaching hla youtn. ful undorstudy all the tricks of the trade. Barber Bill Urbahekl will play shortstop. Wally Borger, a ballhawk m center, nd Bob Worthlngton In left, should furnish most of the answers to the Braves' hitting problems. Both are good for .310 or better. Bandy Moore, odd-Job man, may get the third out field post, unless Wes Soulmerlch suddenly solves the mysteries of curve-ball pitching or one of the re cruits comes through to grab the Job. , Veteran For Mound Ed Brand, one of the best south , paws in the league, and Ben Oantwell. experienced right hander, can be re lied upon to handle starting assign ments. Tom Zachary, veteran south paw, will do for "spot" Jobs. For mop ping up, McKechnle will have Fred Frankhouse. Harry Selbold and prob ably Leo Mangum, up from the In ternational league. Behind the bat the 360-pound Ho gan will have the assistance of At Spohrer and BUI Hargrave. Some of tho players of the Portland, Ore., club of the Pacific Coast League who'll be out there trying to repeat last year'i title winning performance under the management of Spencer Abbott (right). Sam Qlbson (lower left) la ojie of the pitchers. Eddie Mulligan (left), third base, and Ben 8ankey, shortatop, resting during training.
