THE NEEDS ARE MANY.

The needs of the Chicks are multi
plying with the days. The most flag
rant weakness of the Memphis ma
chine is on second base, which Is at
present being held down by Ray Blades
Blades has proven conClusively and be-
yond the faintest giimmer of doubt
that he is not an inficlder. He can not
field a ground ball, and the result is a
flock of errors and many lost ball
games
Manager Jack Lewis is anxious to
get back in the game and said Tuesday
night he expected to return to the line
up in about week, as his arm is
gradually recovering Jack wants 10 be
back in there as bad as fans want to
see him in there, and they may rest
assured chat he will get in at the first
possible moment
Another need of the club is a sea-
soned catcher This has been the case
all yer, Both Bischoff and Meyers
are second string catchers and nothing
more. They haven't had the expert
ence to make Glass 4 baCkstops and
the result Is that the Tribe has lost
quite a few ball games by inferior work
back OF the plate.
The outlook isn't overly brilliant for
the Chicks at the present. and unless
they take a decided brace within the
next week or so, they are doomed for
another permanent second division
berth, which they have occupied for the
past several seasons.
