All the coming minor league first
basemen were laid before my eyes,
like diamonds in gem shop, but I
didn't take them. The more | pom
dered over the situation the more OBJ
stinate I became with myself This
man., / said, meaning Bressler, can
go through and I'm going to put my
faith in him."
So there it is-Eressler at first,
Critz at second, Caveney at shortstop
and Pinelli at third base-an infield
with a smash and d wide sweep that
will push the Reds to the front this
year If they keep going in all other
ways.
There have been reports of other
infields to start for Cincinnati, but
this is the infie1d that will be regular,
so Hendricks told the writer.
Caveney in Great Shape.
How about Caveney, wasn't he to
go?" Hendricks was asked.
I'VE asked waivers, but you know
we had a right to recall them" was
the enigmatical answer, land Ca
veney never reported to a ball club in
his life as he has this Spring. He is
another ball player than the Caveney
who was down here in 1924"
And the outfield "
"Zitzman in left. / am satisfied he
can go there. Roush, of course, in
center Right field is divided between
Walker and Elmer Smith. I haven't
decided which it will be and may be
they will be alternated.
For catchers, Wingo and Hargrave
and we want another. A major league
club should have three catchers. The
pitchers are the same as last year and
I'll back them against any other
crowd in the National League"
Have Lots of Confidence.
The Reds have lot of confidence
often they have been accused of win
ming their championships long in ad-
vance of the start of the season. II
isn't that kind of confidence this year
It's the confidence that comes from
feeling that as the National League
is constituted for 1925 they have q
chance.
Since the accidents that have be-
fallen Chicago they figure their team
will be the contending team in the
West with Pittsburgh. They think
they have the pitchers to pull them
through and the infieId to back the
pitchers.
Zitzman certainly has improved, and
he can be depended upon to play a
good defensive game, which the Gin
cinnatis did not always do last year
If he comes through with the bat, anC

BUFFALO, n. Y, April with
only 200 more teams of the 2,200

Pirates Are "CIawed Up."

PITTSBURGH, Pa, April 2.-The
Pirates were considerably "clawed
up" by the Vernon Tigers yesterday
in the first game of their series at
Los Angeles. Ray Kremer, the Buc-
canneers' pitcher, walked a batter in
the ninth inning, when the bases
were jammed, and gave the Coast
team the one run they needed. The
score was to 5.
Emil Yde started on the, mound for
the Bucs, but weakened in the sew
enth inning. after holding the Tigers
to two hits for six sessions. Kremer
was sent in to relieve him, and the
Pirates went into the last inning with
one-run advantage. Four passes
and a hit, however, gave the West
ernerS enough runs to win.
The chief topic of conversation
among the Pirates today was the
proposed meeting between Vic AL
bridge, the .one Pirate holdout, and
Barney Dreyfuss, the Pittsburgh
owner. at Chicago next Saturday. 1t
is understood that Dreyfuss. who is
on his way East, has written to the
pitcher to meet him with view to
ironing out their. differences.
