Race Is
DOped Out

Watch out for Sacramento.
That club Is too good to be In the
second division. The Sacramento
pitchers are beginning to come
around and look for them to put
up an awful battle for the flag yet.
They have strong defense, plenty
Of speed and fair punch and they
play smart baseball.
Oakland. Vernon and Los Angeles
look like second division teams to me.
Vernon Is a good spring team, but
it's doubtful II their youngsters win
hold up. They cracked badly in the
pinches here.
Salt Lake should be either fourth
or fifth with Portland dangerous il
they get any pitching. The Beavers
have been slipping badly Of late.
Seattle is the new threat with San
Francisco still the team to beat. But
don't forget to keep your eye on
Sacramento.
