Sarasota, Fla, 3o.-"Gou must figure McGraws club,' was re- mark every National league man ager made to me when l asked his opinion of the coming race.
 "McGraw can always bc de- pended upon to have good ball club. And. what is more, it is al- ways q good club that plays smart baseball was the way rival man agcrs summed up tine possibilities of the New York Giants.
 As I watched the team go through it's training sprouts and closely ob- served it in several exhibition games. it was apparent to me that the Now York Giants of this year must be figured strongly in the running as pennant contenders.
 In my tour of the training camps best ball club that I had seen; prc- dictcd that it would win it's fifth consecutive National league pcnnant.
 To my way of thinking, the Giants failed because if suffered a run of bad luck that has scarcely if ever been cqualed in the annals of baae- ball. The Giants suffered from every malady except the hoof-and- mouth disease, every casualty except JOSS Of life.
 l regard the Giants of this year as good, if not a better ball club than the 1925 vintage and certainly no club can suffer as much hard luck ana live to tell of it.
 A ball club cannot achieve great ness without q star player at short stop. For tim" the filling ct that position on the New York club was doubtful. | WAS feared the injury to Travis Jackson's knee might keep him out of the lineup.
 Knee injuries are troachcrous but as l watched Jackson caVort around i the shortticld for the Giants he looked as good as ever, On the ability of Jackson to continue to 1 play, in sense, depends the chances of the Gian's to win.
 The rest Of the infeld will be taken care of hy Lindstrom at third the brilliant Frisch at second and the versatile Kelly at first. ] Should Jacksons knee fail him. the burden of playing that most inn , portant position will be up to Fer rell, the former University of Penn Sylvania star, Farrell can take care of the fielding but so far his hitting has not been all that could he desired.
 However, it is possible that the drive of McGraw'a club will be such that light hitting shortstop will not seriously handicap the team from going somewhere.
 In the outhcld Irish Mcuscl ant Ross Young are practically certain of starring. Young, who had al o(f-ycar of it in 1925, is still grca ball player and should prove it thi. year, Tyson, secured from Louis vile, looks good and is slated tt open in center.
 The battery men will bc much tn, sam cas last year. However, tn, pitching should he improved, d! several of the tWirlcrS on whom ' McGraw Is drpcndlng should prof as the result of tne expericnc, gained last season.
 Just reckon the Giants of 1926 ; strong pennant-contcnlcr. It is tough club 10 beat but plus tn managerial direction of John Me Graw, much tougher one.
 Sarasota, Fla, March 30.-Hcin Groh's legs are such that it l..-t. ]. 1
New Britain herald., 1926-03-30

Manager McGraw has definitely decided 10 usr George Kelley at first base, unless lack of available substitutes forces him 10 be played at second or in the out0cld. Kel- Icy prefers first hase 10 any other position. Says h" hits better when fielding there.

New Britain herald., 1926-03-30

Sarasota, Fla, March 3o.-Hcine Groh's legs arc such that it is hardly possible that he will be able 10 play nor ethan a games at best. He iimps pcrcoptibIy and is no longer menace on tho bases. He still fields Well on balls on which he doesn't have 10 cover much ground and is, as always, a threat at the bat.

son has put his knee to every test, including the hook slide, which places q severe strain on the leg. It looks as if hc has completely re- covered. If such is the case it is q great boost for the Giants chances.
 Much improved pitching is the chief reason for Manager McGraw believing his club can again win the National league pounant. He looks for his veterans to be as effective as ever and feels that several of the rockies Of last year will be about ready 10 so over,
 Of the younger pitchers on the Giants roster, Greenfield, Fi.zsim- mons and WiSncr are th" trio MC- Cfraw is banhin. on for about 45 bail games. Greenfield was the big noiio of tho league las. year, while l'itzsimmons, secured from 1ndian- apolis, did some 1ino work at the flag end of the season. Wisner al times last year showed flashes Of much ability.
 While Outtirldcr Tyson is one of the few rockies certain to break into the New York lineup. his perform anceS at the bat have been far from outstanding. He may find National league pitching tougher to hit than the American Association brand.
 Roger Hr"snahan is 10 take tho place vacated by Hughcy Jennings after several years, &S McGraw $ first lieutenant. Brcsnahan is show ing almost as much pep as Jen- nings and is sur" to help the New York pitching recruits. Roger was a smart receiver
 All the major lcaguc clubs have l discarded the oid-,imo sweaters for the more snappy leather storm breakers, As usual those worn by ! the Giants arc q little bit louder than any others, being trimmed with bright red.

It is to be located on Eighth street

pleasure of inspecting it, as it is
being remodeIled so as to provide a
meeting place for Mizpah Temple

Athens Lodge, No. 70. That the
final details NAV be perfected, and
the building finished as planned is a
hope which race shares with order

the whole-hearted support they give
to worthy enterprise.
Oakland is destined to be a great
CITY. The community On the east
side of the BAY will have a vast
population. 1t is well there are men
and organizations here who have
the realization, vision, and courage
to prepare for that time. Their
very preparations hasten the day
and add to the size and prestige of
the eaStbaY. Buildings of the kind
projected stamp a group with indi-

crowd secures the rental of it, and
spollS the chances in a short time
OF our race securing it again. In
suolllng around this week attention
was called to Golden Gate hall
at 5oth and San Pablo. The Home
club has used it for years for their

used by Glenn Raymond's Jazz

occurred, and man was thrown
over the railing on the stairs. and
