believe they have a chance to secure
Russell Blackburne from the White
Sox. Los Angeles is making a strong
bid for last years second baseman.
Maybe they will succeed, but we
doubt it very much. There is no log
zeal reason why Blackburne should
be released from the~south side team.
He is needed now, and will be needed
more during the season if injuries
creep in.
BlackbUrne is the best relief in
fielder on the squad, and in some
quarters there is a strong suspicion
that he would make good as the reg
ular third baseman. That difficult
corner job is still an open proposition.
BromWich, Baker and Breton have
all had a crack at it, and no one of
them has shown enough aIl-around
ability to class with major league
third basemen.
Until Weaver returns to the squad
there vii lbe no chance to try Black
buTne out at third base. He is need
ed at short in order that Eddie Collins
may get practice next to fast man.
But when Buck puts on his uniform
again the logical step is to put Black
burne over on third and let him have
a try at the job. He is a smart ath-
lete and will not be guilty Of errors
of omission. His hitting will class
up well, his baserunning is good.
He has never played third, but the
base is situated on the side of the
diamond where his best work has
been done.
BromWich and Baker were sent
back to the second squad yesterday
by Manager Rowland. Both failed.
Now the leader is making a desperate
effort to teach Bobby Roth, an out
fielder, the business of third basing.
He may succeed, but those who saw
Roth in action as an outfielder last
