ATHLETICS CARRY
: HOT CORNER TRIO
Mack Well Supplied With
Third Base Guardians.
By NEA SerUice

By NEA SerUicc
PHILADELPHIA, July 25.-While
several major league clubs are sadly
in need of a competent third base
man, he tail-end Athletics boast
three good players at that position.
Jimmy Dykes, regarded as a COM
ing star at the position about three
years ago, stands about third in the
line.
Evidently Connie Mack has decided
that Dykes Isn't cut out to be a
third sacker, despite the fact that he
has a great arm, a wonderful asset
to a player at that position.
A year ago Sammie Hale was
purchased at the reputed cost Of
about $4,000. He failed TO live up
TO advance notices and was soon
derricked in favor OF Dykes.
Meantime Mack apparently has de-
cided that Riconda, who has been
playing substitute roles. is superior
to the other two. He has the cali

Often speed merchants going down

This usually is due to the fact that
they lack the knack of getting a

Failure to perfect a deceptive slide
is also handicap.
Certain pitchers with great natural
ability throw caution TO the wind
and try to win through sheer power
rather than mixing a little thought
with their pitching.
