Washington. Jan. Substantially
the same team that VOL for them
the 1925 American league ponnant
again will take the field for the
Washington Americans in the 1926
championship quest
Aside from the possible retirement
OF two OF its veteran substitutes, In
fielder Everett C"Deacon'D Scott and
Allan Russell. relief pitcher, no
changes have been forecast In the
roster OF the two-time league cham
pions. Outhelders Leibold and
Neach may be traded, however. il
suitable exchange material can be
obtained.
Manager Stanley Harris, two-year
manager with two league pennants
and a world series victory to his
credit, intends to keep his infeld in
tact along with his 1925 catching
staff but he would like to have a
capable outfelder to work between
Goslin and Rice.
The famous infleld combination of
Judge. Harris, Peckinpaugh and
Bluege, which FOR two successive
season has excelled all others In
double plays, will start the season.
Peckinpaugh, despite his failure to
live up to expectation In the last
world series, will play shortstop with
Buddy Myer. youthful infelder OBJ
tanned from New Orleans, slated to
be his understudy.
Indications are that Johnson,
gether won IS games last season,
will form the backbone OF the Sena-
torial pitching staff again.
Fred ("FirpoD Marberry, the
iron-man relief hurler, who parti-
cipated in IS contests last season, al
though he made no starts, again is
destined for the rescue assignment.
Despite a wealth OF promising re-
cruit material, Harris is bent upon
obtaining one more experienced
pitcher. 1t is known that he has
looked with covetous eyes upon
Hoyt OF the Yankees, Ehmke of the
Red Sox and Bush Of the Robins,
Alex Ferguson. obtained last season
from the Yankees, is expected to
qualify for a regular pitching assign
ment, while Lefty Thomas, Harry
Kelly and Win Ballou, Southern AS
ISOLATION recruits who made favora-
BILE impression toward the end Of last
season, also are likely prospects.
The failure OF Earl McNecly to
supply the needed batting punch in
center field has caused Harris to
angle for an outfielder Of sufficient
prowess TO play up to the standard
OF Gosin and Rice, both $50 hit
tiers. Rice went to center and Joe
Harris, from the Red SoX, to the
right in several games Of the world
series.
Harris is a strong hitter but slow

wise-cracking. Brooks especially
