Howard recovered: pitcher ieveloIcd
r.ras'nely. and with m more great
worry there. Spears shunted Tallman
out To an end where ono. Of his big

Now lIil!s development made the end
problem less pressing. md one day when
Spears started - give out the lineup

dnos not mean by any means that the
other center cand dates are being over
looked. Spears Is giving "Trusty" f 10:
of attention and ADVICE. Tailman. with
rat any doubt, has shown more ability
as tack.er than any other man on tho
squad and hs Spears makes some use OF
rowing center. possibly this factor
was a big ono In his decision.
