Higgins has wealth of seasoned
pitchers. Piercy could scarce hope to
make the grade with the Yankee twirl-
ing staff and probably figures along
Just those lines in remaining away
Like most of the native sons he pre-
ters the Coast League before any other
minor circuit
Lewis will have his work cut out COR
him beginning Monday, for most of
his fellow club members have been in
training three weeks Of late Duffy
has taken on a great deal of weight
and he finds it harder and harder each
spring to get into proper physical con-
dition. Lewis did not report earlier
because of an infected arm.
