There Is an analytical lead perched
on the shoulders of this man Chase.
and the minute that he took hold OF
the relns he began to put a searchlight
on the weak spots OF his. club. He
found tina a little propping was needed
behind the bat. He also wanted a strong
man at second. Those two points re-
auired the most bolstering. but 10 make
the whole thing symmetrical, he went
after a few additional pitchers and n
heavier batting infeld. The only thlng
that induced him to turn loose Jimmy
Austin was his inability to hit. He had
watched Hartzell for a number OF
wears, and'he believed that he could
burn him into a hitter. To strengthen
I'D second he moved Jack knight over
ron short. His next move was to get
a hard hitter In the place of Knight at
short. He thinks he has found this
man in Otis johnson. who came to the
Eas ern country with the sobriquet or
Home Run Johnson" hung to his toga-
To live up to that name a ball player
must GO ONE but Chase believes thai
Otis can deliver.
The addition OF Blair 20 the catching
staff has been n great help. lie Is
a close second to Sweeney. who is per-
haps the best pegger IN the American
League. Resides these he has a back
stop named Williams who threatens TO
grab a regular Job the minute he gets
a chance behind the hat, Arthur Irwin
and Chase both think a lot OF this man
