In spite of all the claims made to the
effect that Joe Tinker began to slip when
the old Chicago Cub infield was broken
up. should still name him as my seiec-
ton as shortstop OF any All-America
team. Certainly his hitting and fielding
average last season in such a hard town
to play In as Cincinnati. with the cares
of the management and the interference
of the club officials to hamper him. would
seem to prove most decisively that he
still ranks among the stars.

One has to stop and think for a while
before he eliminates the other candidates
and makes his final selection OF Jack
Barry as the Ail-America shortstop. One
could argue pro and con and put forward
the claim of a Wagner, Tinker. or a
Mcbride. but Barry's consistent work
ever since he Joined Connie Mack's school
for champions justly entities him to the
preference:

positions to pick There are Barry. Bush,

There may be lots of dissenting voices
when the selection of Jack Barry as the
AlI-American shortstop. Is named, yet
this Is only to be expected when there are
SO many brilliant players holding down
the same position
In both leagues this position is Won

can League can well boast OF Barry, Me-
Bride. Heinie Wagner. Bush, and others.
while Mike Doolan- Fletcher, and Joe
Tinker are National League shortstops

Yet Barry deserves the place for his
all-around work: he shows no weakness
In any one particular, but is consistently
a leader in fielding, throwing. and base
running. a brainy player with an I'M

proven times innumerable, the right man
