better form and as if one or two young fellows are ready for the big show.
 "A lot depends upon Ferdie sSchupp, and I really believe he's go- ing to be in his old time form. I can bank on Willie DDak's doing well. Marvin Goodwin should be able to handle his game.
 Then there are Bill Sherde1l, Jake May and Elmer Jacobs of the older set who know enough about pitching to go along in the big leagues. and I feel sure of a, great deal of help from Jess Haines, who won 25 games and lost five for Kansas City last year, and Walter Schulz, a youngster whom I picked off the St. LOUIS semi pros.
 He beat us last year in an exhibition game at Mount Vernon. and he can beat anybody with pitching such as he showed us that day. with all that I can't help but feel somewhat optimistic about my pitch ing. staff I have outfie1ders who make mistakes. They throw to the wrong bases and soEa etimes do a lot of other things that you wouldn' t think possible by big leaguers, but there is hope and they'll still learn. You know if you just keep on telling fellow the right thing when he's done it wrong 19 times there's a pos sibi1ity that he'll do it right the 20th time"
 Hickey would like to make a trade that would give him either high class pitcher or a high class catcher -one who could help his present pitching staff-but it looks as if nc such deal could be made. The Giants
 would like to have Milton Stock, and Hickey would give them Stock, but only for some stars. He said they could have him for OutfieIder George Burns, Catcher Smith and some young infielder. That makes a deal prac- tically impossible.
 At present Vernon Clemons is chief catcher for the Cards. and his main fault is getting mad at the unpires Pickles Dulhoefer. formerly of the Cubs, is second string man. and a youngster named Henry Roth, a sol
 1ier, is trying for a place.
 With Stock back in line. the Car ,1inals will have a set of infielders that has plenty of class. Jack Four
 nier has improved greatly in fielding

 As substitute, Harold Janvrin, who trailed with the Red Sox several seasons, is here and going in better style than ever.
 Shotton. Heatheote, McHenry and Jack Smith are the outf1elders of ex- perience. Joe Schultz also a veteran may hold on as utility man, while two youngsters, Ed Bogart and Lloyd Si1- colt, aspire for jobs. The former hit over 300 in the Canadian league last year, and was credited with 22 homers.
 While Shotten handles the job of chief assistant to Hickey the St. Louis boss also carried old Joe Sugden as coach. Joe, however, devotes most of ! his time to the job of teaching the pitchers the tricks of baseball Charley Barrett, scout of the team, also is helping in the work at camp.
 Hickey has a picturesque and unique training camp. Being on the l Mexican border, the boys have to know a bit of Spanish to order ham and eggs and get what they order. Af- l ter they have learned a bit of the talk, they can go over to Matamoros, | on the other side of the Rio Grande, 1 and enjoy for $1 3 dinner consisting | of jack snipe, quail on toast and a venison steak, with all the necessary i side things to make such a dinner complete.

FOREIGN CYCLE
 STARS COMI.,C
 70 RIDE IN U. s,

Boston, March 19.---F'oreign cycling stars will invade this country during the coming season in good round num- bers. Nat Butler, the manager of the new six-lap track being constructed at Revere, arrived home from across the Atlantic yesterday and reports that he has bunch of them signed up to ap- pear in this country.
 Two of, them, Daniel Lava1ave of Paris and Leon Vandersturft of Ant werp, will arrive early in May, and will be in the big opening paced race at the Revere track. Lavalave is one of the speediest men behind the mo- tors in Europe, and has been. cleaning up in the indoor meets in Paris this winter. Leon Vandersturft is a young CT brother of Arthur Vandersturft, who has been in this country several times to take part in the New York six-day races
 Another French pace follower who will get a warm reception here. owing to the friends he made on previous visits, is Lon Didier. who quit the rac- ing game in this country in 1914 to re- l turn to France to enter the army. 1 Like Did:er, Vandersturft and Lav- alave are veterans of the great war. With this advance guard of pace fol- lowers to arrive early in May at Re were will be Emil NaSa, a French pacennaker.
 Butler reports that all kinds of sports are booming in France, espe- cially cycle racing and boxing, and that the places where these contests are held are turning away crowds nightly.
 Work on the new six-lap track at Revere, which will be the best in the country when completed, was retarded by the severe weather conditions, but Butler reports he will have it ready for a grand opening in May. The seat ing capacity will be 10000.

AUTOS To RACE
AGAINST TRAIN
OVER Ab0 PASS

Beating the time of the Califor-
mia limited from Kansas City to
Belen over the new Abo pass
route is the latest race planned by
automobile dealers along the route,
according to D. l.. Mcdonald, of
Hereford, president of the Abo
Highway association.
According to present plans, the
entire distance of the Abo pass
route will be separated into divi-
sions to correspond to the divisions
of the Santa Fe railway, and fresh
cars will be started at each divi-
sion point along the way.
1.-The dealers are enthusiastic
about the race" said Mr.. McDon-
aid, land since the route parallels
the Santa Fe almost entirely they
have no doubt that they can beat
the fastest train over this splendid
new highway"

| Chicago, Sept. 5.-The Chicago
chapter of the Baseball Writer'S

vestigate thoroughly charges that
players had been fixed" so that
the Philadelphia National league
team would win last Tuesdays
game with the Chicago club and
that gamblers won thousands of
dollars as q result of Philadel-
phia's 3-to-1 victory The entire
membership of the chapter was
appointed a committee by I. E.
Sanborn, president, to investigate
the affair, after he had received
letter from William Veeck, presi-
dent of the Chicago club. specific
ally asking that the baseball writ
ers take up the investigation. Sam
Hall, sports editor of the Herald
and Examiner. was appointed
chairman.
Mr.. Veeck. in a statement yes
terday making known that he had
received several kilograms and
telephone calls Just before the
game him warning him of betting
at big odds in Detroit. Cincinnati
and other cities, suggested the
writer's enter into the investigation

resources of the club were at the
associations disposal. All the fl
nancial assistance needed will be
given, he said.
Were the reflection on the Chi

that there is one man on the team
who has done a single dishonest
act you will have rendered to the
public and to the club a service so
great it's value cannot be estimated.
If your information develops that
there has been no dishonesty
among the players you will have
done as great a service and in that
case l want the men publicly given
a clean bill of health.
