that Schultz will not be with the Phil

being the case not one of the great team

release at the end of last season. Reul-
bach was turned loose by the Braves n
couple OF weeks ago, and now Schultz
Ia slated for the discard.
Frank remained with the Cubs longer
| than any one else. He was traded to
Pittsburgh on July %. 1916, and played
with that club until last season, when
waivers were asked on him, He was

after three seasons Of heavy hitting with
the Syracuse team, of the New Yorl
