SEASONED VETS
WILL ADD power
TO 1926 DODGERS

New York, Jan. 15.-(AP)-Veter-
an players rescued from the back
trails Of the major league carry the
hope of Wilbert Robinson in his at
tempt to rebuild the Brooklyn Robins
and bring them back to the contend
ing position they held prior to 1925.
Shuoldering the dual responsibility
of president manager, Robinson has
cast fighting role for his club of
1926. His lineup Is uncertain at
this time but he has made 1t plain
that his aim is a high pitched Of
fensive and that to attain their end
he will call upon the former Cub in
fielder, Rabbit Maranville: the fleet
ex-Yankee. Whitley Witt. and the
erstwhile Braves catcher, Mickey
O'Neil, to supply much of the dash
and fire for reconstruction.
In spite of the fact that IA years
of National League diamonds have
taken their toll on the speed of the
midget shortstop who rose to fame
with the champion Braves Of 1914,
Meanwhile is slated to start for the
Dodgers at either shortstop or sec
ond base. Should the Rabbit take

while Horace Ford probably will be

Des Moines recruit, as we'll as two
young players, Standaert and Pat
ridge.
The only infield certainty at this
stage, however. appears to be the
smuggling first baseman, Jacques
Fourier, who threatened near the
close of the 1925 season to retire in
order to escape uncomplimentary
vocal fire from the Brooklyn stands.
Felix, another acquisition from the
Braves, may press Dick Cox for the
right field position but Zach Wheat.
Robinson's assistant manager in 1925,
is a fixture in left.
Famous for his ability to reju-
venate against pitching arms. Robbie
will experiment this season with the
veteran Jess Barnes, obtained from
Boston. He will also test several
young boXmen, including L. A. Brown
and H. A. Bennett. Oklahomans:
Jim Elliot, $4,000 purchase from
Terre Haute; Hollingsworth. $4,000
prospect from Portland. Ore: Moss,
Memphis recruit, and Bob McGraw,

Finds from this string would be
added to such seasoned performers
as Vance, Petty, Osborne, Grimes,
Ehrhardt and Barnes.
O'Neil is expected to shoulder the
catching burden, but DeBerry.
Vance's batterymate, and Hargeaves,
are slated to do their share.
