son. The CalifOTnian's fielding is
tight and sensational and his batting
is much stronger than that of Terry.
If the Swede can hit the ball for
something around .22O and do his
fielding efficiently, nothing more will
be desired.
In practice he has indicated an aV-
erage against real pitching of near
er $50, which boosts the stock of the
club. Eddie Collins is better salts
fed with his surroundings than he
was in 1916, and the result is at once
apparent in his playing. Eddie never
was a fellow to loaf on the Job, but
it stands to reason that a player does
better when conditions are to his Xix
ing.
Faber and Cicotte have shown ex-
celent form in the box, and Scott
looks to be the comeback of the year.
The soUthpaws, Russell and Will
iams, are not as far advanced as the
fellows who throw correctly, but
they will be able to take a whirl at
the best by April IL. Russell has a
kinky arm which is yielding to
treatment, and Williams needs plen-
ty of work
In reserve strength the locals are
better fortified than any team in the
league, with Terry, McMullen and
JouTdan for infield duty, Lynn to act
as SchaIk's first relief, Eddie Murphy
ready TO step into an OUtfeld job,
and Jack Fourier on hand to Dinch
hit at the psychological moment.
As the Cubs draw nearer to big
league confines their game improves
and there is still a chance for Man
ager Mitchell to start the esason~ with
a fair fighting front. Today the club
plays Wichita, and good diamonds
will be found from now until opening
day. Good diamonds mean Larry
Doyle will have an opportunity to
play.
Doyle is the major eff" of the club.
