|EASTLAKE PARK WILL BE| |REMODELED FOR FASTEST 'SEMI-PRO TEAM IN STATE

Phoenix will have a real ball club and a real ball park this summer if present plans materialize. E. D. Perry, manager of the Phoenix Greys and the Barker club during the past season, is authority for the above. Perry says the club will be the fastest team ever gathered together in the state of Ari- zora and will play under Phoenix col orS. Two, and possibly three coast league players will be imported to strengthen the material already on hand, but If any local player can beat the league stars to the position they will be given first call. Captain Sor- rey, the fastest fielder in the bushes will have full charge of the playing end and any player having desire to try for the new team can report to Sorrey and arrangements will be made for a workout.
 Perry has some good local talent signed for the team, but he has options on three coast league players in the event the local players fail to measure up to the standard of the club. The players will work on a guarantee sal- ary basis with a percentage bonus. The team will be backed by the business men of the city as an advertisement and entertainment feature of the better and bigger Phoenix program.
 Good outside teams will be signed for local games. Globe, Miami, Su- perior, Tucson, Jerome, Douglas, Bis bee, Ray and Fl Paso teams will be seen on the local lot this season, pitted against the Phoenix team. The cop per camps are already working out plans for teams and Perry hopes to complete the details of an all summsr schedule just as soon ss the clubs are lined up.
 The opening game will be played about March 20 with some team from outside the state. The Cubs had planned on coming to Phoenix. but Perry is not certain of a date as the Chicago team may change plans and return Wa the northern route. Los

Angeles or Vernon will be here in the event the Cubs are not booked
 Eastlake park will be entirely remod- eled to meet the needs of the fast teams that will play here. The present grand stand will be moved to the southeast corner of the park and be enlarged to over twice its present size. By moving the grandstand the fans will be pro- tected from the hot sun during the game and all seats will afford a perfect view of the playing field The bleach CTS along third base line will not be moved.
 The playing field will be changed with the grandstand, bringing home plate to the southwest corner and the present infield will be the outergarden.
 The north side fence will be raised to cut off the view from the outside bleachers and give the park the ap- pearance of a big league lot. Pro- tected parking space for cars will be arranged along third base line The work will require a considerable outlay of cash and take several weeks to com plete, but when the work is finished Phoenix will have the finest ball park in the southwest and provide a per manent playing field and training grounds in the event one of the ma jor clubs can be induced to train in Phoenix next winter.

could sock the old onion for keeps. Certainly he had the beef to put be- hind a smear.
 Billy and I had the bunch out toiling the next few days. I figured there were few things I could tell the boys. I've been tangled up in nearly every sport on the table during my long and freckled career. I've piloted pennant winners on the old ball orchard. and I've trailed behind terrible tailenders I've sat in corner an parked advice at glove champs and I've also hauled countless pounds of mixed beef and lemon off the canvas. I've buclxed boobs and wise guys at the racing game. In wrestling I know all the box-office holds-and that's sufficient
 My group of Evergreen Wildcats worked out with real snap and pep, but my only moundsmen were Nanny Hatton and North. I kinda wished to hook V. Morgan Brewster, but as Billy Moore yodeled, there didn't seem a chance.
 A couple of times I had seen him breeze by in a heap of cylinders with Lois Chandler who certainly was one of the fairest bits of female scenery. 1 can truthfully chirp that woman lovely woman, has to do some to put dent In my hickory shell, but Lois

future athletes and got a line on them through Billy Moore. Outside of the left fielder, a tubby kewpie named Simpson, and Curly Bloom, a third sacker, all of the transformers were first team grads. They sized up well, and I found some of them talented in other sports.
 The catcher, Fluffy" Doyle, was champ middleweight of the college Henry Webster Clay, shortstop- generally hailed as "Muddy"-was a crack lightweight. Mann" Hatton, second sacker was another boxer, and good golfer. Buck" Horn, the first baseman was off a Montana ranch and could ride and rope with real skill. Robin Wrigley. the utility man, was a wrestler, as was big Carl Crumb, the rightfielder. Johnny Worth, another outfielder, and Curly Bloom were ten his sharks. Edgar Adam North, who threw from the south side, was hound on the track
 Billy Moore boasted a bit about my two outfielders, Worth and Crumb "Whiz'' Worth was faster than cleo trio current He could do the hundred under ten seconds and promised to be an ideal leadoff hitter.
 Tiny Crumb was the Babe Ruth of the outfit. He wasn't demon at grab bing high ones but Billy vowed he

POISON PEW GETS STAR TTVIRLER,S COAT

 Cuff sets out to manage a bunch
 of transforming college grads, with
 a sentimental star twirler, V. Mor-

 when Brewster gets strange anony-

 and has a tiff with Lola Chandler.
 CHAPTER II
 Following that last emphatic remark gave Billy Moore a long look.
 Come clean!" I urge why can't have " Morgan for a pitcher?'
 Well, Squawlx,' Billy responds, "I don't know where you been all your life, but Valentine Morgan Brewster happens to be the only son and heir of the late Sam Brewster, the fruit king. Sam had oodles of coin"
 'Oh, a malefactor of great wealth, huh? He don't care to play ball after leaving the knowledge works? ?''
 Exactly, and also he has one of the finest swelled skulls in captivity. He can sure pitch, but he is so puffed up I hate to work him. He's as popular in college as palm leaf fans in Alaska
 "Ain't that lovely?" I growl.' And a bird with all the stuff he's got!"
 Besides that, V. Morgan is falling hard for a coed here-Lois Chandler, daughter of Col. Chandler, the big rail- way pug. SHG s toO pftlly ana LOO SOOO for him. too. but she lets him hang around her sorority house pretty regu- lar. Just between you and me, though life ain't been any too smooth for Brewster this spring. I noticed once or twice his pitching wasn't what it oughta been and I quizzed his room mate, Robinson Wrigley. our utility man.
 Tt seems the girl has been offish at times, and some mysterious person has been sending V. Morgan messages, roasting him for his conceit and bawl- ing him something scandalous. Robin says they are just signed Raspberry Brewster is wild to find out who is doing this to him.
