 With such a galaxy of former Southern Ieaguers pasting the pellet over the coveted mark, the big-t time moguls have come to look upon Southern league stars as sure fire winners.
 Two Former Bnr0ns slump
 There are two men in the Ma tionaI league, however, who once romped at Redwood, who are suffering a slump this season. One Is Patricia Duncan, who en- loved two prosperous pounding years with the Reds. Pat is not doing so well this season, hav- ing a hitting average of only .266. Then there is John Peters, who graduated from the Baronial ranks last season, for a berth with the Iowly Phillies. Pete has managed to hit onl.- PAP in the games he has participated in thus far.
 Bill Donovan. manager of the Phillies, seems to be sweet on all his, ,catchers, however. He thinks Pete will round out his batting eye. He has a youngster named Bruggy, who can't be kept out of the line up, because of his bat ting prowess, so he has switched him to first base. Cliff Lee, an- other catcher. received from Pittsburg in a trade, has been switched to the outfield. Thus one finds three catchers per day in the Philly lineup.
 And, here's another hot one for you. Despite the fact that he boasts n batting mark of .347, Riggs Stephenson, who went to the CIeveIanders from the Univers- ity of Alabama, has been benched in favor of Wambsgnnns.
 Pulls Glorious Come-Back
 One of the sweetest come-backs of the 1921 season is that staged by Tod (Yale) Sloan, former Baron gardener. Last season Tod was shipped back from the St. Louis club, and given berth with John McCloskey's Memphis inf Iitfir slump and was decorated with the tinware. He went over to Chattanooga and opened up with that club this spring. Strang Nicklin placed the n. g." label on Sloan and he became free agent.
 Kid E.berfeid, in need of a gardener, picked Sloan up, and kept him on the club for while as pinch hitter. When the Kid saw that Bob Bescher was all in, he gave Bob his passports and had talk with Sloan. It is said ths Kid talked mighty straight to Tod and told him he should be major league ball player, and would be, but for his carelessness. This is your last chance to make ood in the Southern league Elberfeld is reported to have told Sloan. He then ,laced him in the lineup, and Turbulent Tod has been go- ing great guns ever since. To date he boasts a batting average of .313.
