be a better ball player now than al

Griff asserted that the players them.

the showing they have made in the

they could be expected to "step out
in the remaining contests with the
Giants.
'Goslin's failure to hit his stride

but he gradually is improving.
Goose has been slow starter, and
In that respect he is running true

you will see difference.
"Marberry's poor pitching has
been another factor, too. Fred
hasn't been bearing down at all,
apparently being afraid of the ell.
bow he injured last season, and it
was due to this fact that at least
two of those defeats were chalked
up against us. There is nothing
the matter with his arm, however,
and when he becomes convinced
of this and starts cutting loose he
will get entirely different results. &
I'VE have good ball club, plenty
