CHICAGO. March 3. - Casters
scribes are raving about Connie
Mack's youngster these days and II
Is the first time in years. The other
leaders have started to view the
upstarts with alarm after reading
about the great early season form
of the White Elephant beavers.
The Yankee leaders latest move
is to grab Catcher Albert de Vormer,
who backstopped for the Vernon
Club last summer.
George Sisler will be the last man
or the Browns list to report for
spring training. The American
Leagse fash is engaged in the print
ing business and Fohl gave him a
weeks extension to clean up his
affairs.
The Yankee owners declare Baker
will not be traded or sold now that
they have influenced him to return
to the game. Col. Til Huston says
Baker will be seen at the hot corner
when the 1921 season opens.
The Boston Braves will play very
few games on their return to the
North this spring. Only seven games
have been scheduled and Fred
Mitchell says this is plenty to break
the monotony of the long jumps.
Gabby Street, once famous bat
terry partner of Walter Johnson, is

will be able to advertise the great

He has combed the country for men

and one hitting as high as .412.
Sixteen pitchers, ranging from

newcomers.
One-count 'em-one second
baseman. His name is Eddie
Collins. No recruits need apply.
Three third basemen, the
weakest among them hitting
.299 last year, another .333 and
the third .3G.
Seven outfielders. including
the veterans Eddie Murphy,
John Collins, Memo Leibold and
Amos Strunk.

confections from which Gleason will
choose his team. 1t will be a great

the gaps in the Comiskey team.
