PHILADELPHIA, April I'm prying
into the spring status of team that has
finished in last place for six straight sea-
sons, conservatism may be an excusable
attribute.
The Philadelphia Athletics worked dill
gently in their training camp, but they
did not boast. Connie Mack, still quite
baseball genius despite adversely In
recent years, prefers to accomplish some
concrete results before talking.
OF squad of twenty eight men in
spring training. only five had not been
with the club before. This does not in
fer, however, that Mack is standing pat
on a team of tsil-enders.
He recalled Infelders Frank BRAZIL
and Emmett Mccain. whom he expects TO
be valuable assets. 1t will be hard to
keep BRAZIL of the regular team this
year. He can play second or third, but
he has been practicing at first base and
has impressed all with his fielding and
batting.
Mccain is not yet 81, but he hits and
fields so well that he promises to succeed
Chic Galloway, last years failure at
short. 1t would not be surprising to see
the season opened with an tntield of Bra
zill Dykes Mccain and Dugan. Every
man is hard hitter.

Mack Has Hopes, but Isn't Talking

The outfeld will consist Of Tilly
Walker in left, Frank Walker in center,
and Welch, Wyatt, Edens and Johnson
lighting for right field. Edens, 1872
pound Texan. has made a great impress
sion with bis smuggling. He is not a
finished product, but will bear watching.
Mack is captivated with his pitching
staff. Perry, Naylor Harris, Romme1,
Hasty, Bigbee Ray and Barrett. Slappy
and Neimach must fight it out for the
other place.
Mack told Harris, RommeI Hasty and
Moore that under no circumstances would
he ever part with them, and that he
intends to keep them until they start
winning.
With Perkins, Stiles and Bin Walker
there are no catching problems.
A big point in Mack's favor is morale.
He didn't have a hold-out on his club
this winter. Virtually every ona was
signed before the close of last season.
Every body is drawing good money and
is happy.
The fall down of Welch, Griffin and
Galloway last season was the principal
reason why the Athletics couldn't get out
of the cellar, but there are worthy can
dldates to fill their shoes this year.
