er youngsters.
With Hannah gone, Danny Shea
will be the main reliance behind
the bat. Mike is scouting for a
good second-string catcher. Dutch
Altman held the job last year, but
would sooner play in the infield.
1t looked like a staggering blow
when Mike lost McCarl, Fitzsim-
mons and Yohe, but the Spokane
manager figures on a pretty fair
fnfield despite this fact. Holke
has been bought from the West
ern league to fill the hole at first.
The smuggling Joe Wagner will
cover second, and Willis Butler,
a player who came to the Port
land Beavers from the East,
will endeavor to fill Fitzsimmons'
shoes at short. Johnny Wuffli
will shift over to third base now
that Yohe Ia gone.
Mike looks to have a pippin of
an outfield. In addition to him
self, he has Watt Powell and jim
my Lewis. Mike is the best GEN.
terfielder in the circuit and the
other two can cover lots of
ground. 1t is with the bat, how
ever, that this trio shines. All of
them bat around 800 and are
long distance hitters. Lewis comes
from the Coast league with .2S6
average and a reputation as a
home run hitter, and Powell and
Mike have shown the fans that
they can hit. Then, too, speedy
Justin Fitzgerald may be sent to
the Indians by San Francisco.
Altogether. Spokane appears to
be as strong on paper as any team
In the circuit, and should be a
bunch especially feared by the
pitchers ON five other teams.
