that RoIlie Zeider will replace him
before the opening of the season. AS
the team comes north the veteran
gains in speed and his batting eye Is
growing brighter.
Tinker is not figuring on any more
changes in finding team to face the
Reds at Cincinnati in the opening
game. He has a combination that
seems capable in every department,

had his turn yesterday against
Shreveport and was only hit safely
twice.
MuIIigan got the sole Cub hit and
neither side scored in the seven in
nings played. Sounds ike the Cubs
were weak sisters with the bat, but
on several occasions they were
robbed of safeties by sensational
fielding. -,
Next Wednesday the Cubs will
face a good team and will need eV-
erything to get away with the best
of the first series. HerZOg made a
great move yesterday when he added
Hal Chase to a team which is already
powerful. Hal will be assigned to
regular duty at first base, according
to reports from Redland, and MOl-
WITT will be used as utility man.
Chase has been hunting a job ever
since the Federal league went out of
business. The gates Of the American
league were shut to him because of
an unwritten agreement among the
magnates that neither Hal nor
George Stovan would be employed.
But that didn't operate against the
National league people, and HerzOg
and Garry Hermann have been SEN
sible enough to grab a good man, and
one badly needed. Chase will field
much better than MOIlwitZ and will
hit a good bit harder. He will speed

temperaments as hefty as those
sported by Herzog and Chase can
dwell peaceably on the same team.
If they can, the club will benefit. If
they can't, then the bat boy would
make a better first baseman than
Chase, so far as the Reds are con-
cerned.
HerzOg is already getting on the
fight and doing some things that will
hurt the progress Of his club if con-
tinued into the regular season.
Throughout the training trip Buck
has been scrapping the Umpires, and
the climax came yesterday in Column
bus, O., where he refused to leave the
field when ordered to do so by the
umpire, and the game was forfeited
to the minor leaguers.
AggressiVeness and pugiIism are
far apart. That is something HerZOg
doesn't seem to realize. Buck is one
of the finest individual baIlplayers in
the country. He has the making of
a good manager. He has already
done wonders in Cincinnati, but will
lose all his effectiveness unless he
learns to control his temper and di-
rect his kicks in a proper manner.
Manager Rowland had a look at
Fautsch yesterday in a game against
Topeka, putting him at Terry's place
with the first team. The yoUngster
made an impressive showing, bang
ing a couple of hits and booting one
of his fielding chances. The latter
deficiency was lost sight of because
of his prowess with the stick. One
of the bingles came with the bases
full and two out, and the second
came with men on. He accounted
for three of the dozen Sox runs.
FaUtsch realized he was facing a
test and this somewhat unnerVed
him in the field and was responsible
for his failure to handle everything
cleanly. Rowland has a raft of util-
