DISCH SWITCHES HIS
TEXAS INFIELD FOR
THE COMING SEASON
Only Smalley Remains at
Old Position Under New
Arrangement.

Austin. Tex. March Only one
position in the infield Of the Univer-
sity Of Texas baseball team will be
filled BY the same player as in 1923,
if the changes now being used in
practice are carried out by Coach
Billy Disch.
The latest change made is the
switching of Captain Herman Odom.
of Ruck. to shortstop and replacing
him at second with Horace Kibbie. OF
Fort Worth. shortstop of the 1875
team. Kibbie was erratic at times
last year. and it is expected that he
will be able to overcome this at the
new position. Captain Odom was
the regular shortstop on the 1922
team. when he was the all-confer-
ence choice at that position.
Edward Carson, OF Waxahachie.
last years first-baseman. has been
Saving in the outfield regularly for
the last two weeks. and it is ex-
pected that he VIII be used there
during all the present season. His
position is being covered by Johnny
MuFcahy. of Fl Paso. and Collie Falk,
of Austin. Mulcahy is n letter man
from the 1922 team and Falk. who is
a younger brother of Bib Falk. out
: fielder with the Chicago White Sox.
is a star from the 1922 freshman
team. Carson played in the outfield
in 1922 and his presence there again
this year will add both fielding and
hitting strength while the infield will
not be materially weakened, since
both Falk and Mulcahy are finished
fielders and average hitters.
Dewey Smalley of Yorktown. prob
ably will cover third base for his Sec
ond year. Smalley was fair fielder
and a good hitter last year. and he
seems to have developed much in his
years experience.

NEWMAN TO CORPUS
Pat Will Meet Business Men Friday
Night to Talk Baseball.

Corpus Christi, Tex. March -
Pat Newman, OF San Antonio, former
Texas League baseball star and ex-
manager. will be in Corpus Christi
Friday night for conference with
local fans with a view OF organizing
Il club here as one of the members
of the proposed South Texas League.
TO be organized at Victoria. Sunday,
March IL. The South Texas League
will have six or eight members.
Towns mentioned as probable men,
bers of the new league are beginning
to make financial arrangements to
support the local clubs, according to
information reaching this city. In
long distance telephone conversation
with local fans this week, Newman
said that the South Texas circuit
should be a success. He asked that
at many of the local business people
as possible be on hand Friday night.
The last experience with a base
ball league in this territory was two
years ago when the Gulf Coast
League was organized. 1t operated
one year only, and most of the clubs
participating ended the season with
substantial financial shortages. In
view of this fact, in the opinion or
local fans. an organization at this
time must be an assured success be-
fore the season opens. Otherwise
it will not be given support.
