MANAGER L|PE
IN A QUANDARY
Will Be Difficult to Get Man for
Temporary Position on
Second Base.

Manager Lipe is still on the hunt for
a second baseman and shortstop, the
only two places now untitled on tina
team. Reeves decision not to return
has put him in a quandary, but he has
singled out good man for the place,
and every effort will be made to land
him though 1t will cost money to make
the catch. None OF the good players
are running loose in the country now.
ThoEe who are still on the outside look
ing in are not the men Richmond or
arg other good, fast club wants.
1t may be that If one fast player can
be procured. second-base will be filled
by utility man and the new conner
put at short. Then Siebrle will take
hic former position as soon as he comes.
To get man who will play second only
temporarily. while Siebrie is absent,
Will be rather difficult, for no player
Will want berth which is to be his
for 80 short time. So the best way
out OF the difficulty seems to be to
place utility man on the middle
sack, and relieve him as soon as Sic
brie arrives.
The club is still lacking two umpires,
though Secretary Gregory has been
trying to find two suitable men for a
long time. He has his eyes on two.
and il they are found to be desirable
contracts will be sent them.
