RAMBLERS.

Eince the baseball season closed in
Newark very little has happened TO
interest the fans beyond the talk of
the sale of the club and proposed cir
cult changes in the league. The play
ers who performed on the Newark
club have dropped out Of sight and
have been forgotten perhaps as they
never were in any other season. When
hristmas comes around, however,
most of the boys wake up from their
winter slumbers and remember their
local friends with cards.
If Ebbets is compelled to retain the
local club the first thing he should do
Is to give the fans his assurances
hat the team will be kept intact dur
Ing the entire season. Otherwise the
prospects will be more dismal than
ever. The Newark club needs CATCH
ers, pitchers, two outfielders and two
infielders. Bert Tooiey Ii capable
shortstop. but he failed at second base
because he cannot play on that side
of the keystone sack. Clarence kraft
was not a success on the initial cush-
ion. The fans would prefer to see
jeff Holmquist on that bag, for he
handled himself In a manner that APP
pealed to the fans, and the most suc-
cessful streak of victories the Tigers
had after their disastrous road trip of
May came with JEFF on the primal
cushion.
Kraft has his swings" as the ball
players put II, and he either elouts II
for a knockout wallOp or he smashes
the ozone. This sort Of thing does
not appeal to the fans.
