OTTOMLEY IS
SOLD ON CARDS

Take il from Jim Bottomley, the
st. Louis Cardinals first baseman,
the Cards are a better batting and
fielding team than last year and are
out to win the pennant. I'VE had
hitting strength last year." says
Jim. but it was not scattered
through the batting order enough.
This season il will be different.
Hafey is knocking the cover off the
hall. Mueller sure can hit Under
HOrnsby's tutoring Bells hitting
should improve.
He developed a habit of shooting
his left foot out so far he was off
balance. and if Rogers can cure
him Of the fault his hitting should
be< many points better. Then there
is Thevenow, our shortstop. who is
a damon in the pinches. and O'Far-
rell seems to have found his batting
eye.
Last year our pitching was not
50 bad Lots of balls got through
our infield which never should have
been missed. which made the twirl-
ers look bad. After Thevenow was
recalled from Syracuse late last
season the Cards infield looked
better.
Il don't want to see Heine Muel-
Ter become serious. Let him fool
and kid around as much as he wants
to. for then he is in the proper
state Of mind and hitting the ball.
Whenever Heine's looking serious IL
means a slump in his hitting"
Bottomley has never received suf-
ficient praise from the St Louis
fans. for he was handicapped by
working next to one who may be
called a super" ball player. Roger

Some Real Dope

The Sporting Goods Dealer. a
trade paper published in St Louis,
furnishes few interesting statistics
on baseball. The total production
of baseball uniforms in 1925 dropped
to unit Of 50 from a high of
101 in 1923. This sharp fluctuation
does not represent a drop of nearly
so per cent. but was caused in no
small part by overbuying in previ-
Gus years

An idea of how strenuOusly and
determinedly Greb is going about
his ''cOme.back" endeaVOr was
outlined last week In Hot
Springs paper as follows:
"Greb is up each morning at Z
O'Clock sharp, then following q
showed and breakfast he takes Il
two-mile walk to the Hot Springs
Golf and Country Club where he
plays I8 holes. After a light lunch
Greb walks. one mile to Whiting

the Milwaukee club OF the Ameri-
can Association. Harry chases flies,
bats fungoes and wrestles with
Lena" Blackburne, the foraer
big Lacquer and now manager If
the Brewers, and also grapplcs
with other members of tee ball
club in training.
Then comes the heaviest part of
the days work After lea wing the
park. Greb climbs the North
Mountains to a lumber camp. He
then chops down no less than three
trees and joys a mile or more over
the mountain trail and assists in
dragging the trees to the sawmiiI.
He then returns to the hotel and
after his daily dip in the springs
and another walk he is off for bed.

With Babe Ruth regaining his

Gehrig, Earl Combs, Joe Dugan,-
Benny Bengough and the others
are likely to follow suit. Thf
Yanks. stung to the quick by the
comments of critics that they were
nothing better than a weak second
division club, have won ten games
in row from National League OPP
pohents in the "Cocoanut League.
They have been hitting, display
ing a liveiier all-around brand or
baseball and otherwise disporting
themselves in the approved big.
league manner. or course, there Is
no reason to believe that this
series OF victories portends any
extremely bright future for the
Hugmen. but. nevertheless. it is a
significant sign that the Yanks
are human, after all, and quick TO
respond to the lash of ridicule.
Assuming that the Yanks will
forget their overconfidence of sea
sons now written into the history
Of the game. and inspired by a re-
pentant Babe Ruth. the question
now arises. what kind of a team
will Huggins direct this season?
Higgins will have veterans IN
the Outfield where Babe Ruth,
Bob MeuseI, Earl Combs, Ben
PaschaI and Nick CullOp will
solve any worries he may have
concerning his garden players.
Combs banged the pellet for .343

averages this season. Much is eX
pected of Tony LazZeri. the Pacific
Coast slugger, who has been gradu-
ally gaining his eye down South. In
six games against the Robins twiri
ers he has attained the respectable
average Of .416.
Hugg us will have Gehrig at first.
