tried him and turned him back. but
II a ball player has it really in him
ii will come To the surface. And at
Louisville, under the supervision OF
Cap" Neal and Billy Meyers. DE.
vormer got his head out of the water.
There Is another catcher who was
with the Giants momentarily i'm 1926,
but who caught for Winston Salem
when on a steady job prior tn being
taken up by New York. His name IS
Sanford Handy and he homestakes
at Wilkeksboro, n. G.. When the
State of North Carolina does turn out
ball player he is usually worth
having, and when he is catcher he
is almost invariably worth having.
CatcherS thrive better in North Caro-
lima than in most States. 1t must be
that the native product OF tar induces
sickness to such a degree that the
ball naturally can't get out OF a North
Carolina ball players hands. Larry
Woodall of the Detroit team emerged
from North Carolina and he has a
pair of hands that would rather hold
a hall than a hot bun.
There also is John Cummings to
catch and he appears more fit for
such work every day. This admirable
addition of strength to the New York
praises of Rogers Hornsby and Roush
have been sounded afar They are
fine men for any team to have, but
the Giants needed catchers as a. baby
needs milk and they seem to have
them now.
Hor1lsby i'm Fine Shape.
Hornsby Is in fine physical condl.
ton, doing stunts as he always did
them. He Is q very superior second
baseman on his left and he is not SD
good in the other direction and never
was. He cannot get the fly hits to
short center that F'risch can get and
there Is no second baseman I'm the
National League who can get them as
| Frisch does. Hornsby needs moro
work with Jackson around second
| and he will get 1t, because both will
be there for some time to come, bar
| ring accidents.
Lindstrom is the same Freddie, a
| fierce fighter and q determined kid.
Terry hits with more ambition be-
cause he knows he Is to play first
| But there are things about first base
that George Kelly can do that Terry
| can't. There are no misleading wealth
er signs in that
Tyson, who outfielded in 1926, seems
! likely to be utility man in conjunction
with Leborveau. The latter swats the
ball as he always has. The Giants
will miss Pep" Young, great little
| outf1elder. who is tossing on a sick
bed out In San Antonio. and it is
probable Pep" will not play again the
game he loves so WELL
There will be games in which the
Giants will dwarf their rivals this
year and others in which they will
| not. When the steam is high look
| out, for them, but when they do
crfmble they will fall hard. 1t will
be more apropos. as it were, to figure
the Giants pennant chances any time
after July 4. Then the team may
have settled to do something, but
don't think they won't be rapping on
the door from the day the season
begins.

BRIT0N WOULD HALT
YANKEE SUCCESSES
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla, March
22.-American golfers, tennis players
and boxers are partly responsible for
the appearance here of Maj. II. o.
ID. Segrave, British racing driver,
who hopes to pilot the twin-12 cylin-
der Mystery S." at 200 miles an
hour speed over the ocean straight
way.
Mat Segrave attained a speed of
only 100 miles an hour in his first
test spin yesterday, but his hopes are
high.
I've grown little weary of Eng
land running second to Americans
in sports" he said, after the monster
racer had been put in it's compart-
ment 200 yards off the speedway.
Our boxers meet with little sue
cess against Americans. Our Davis
cup team do little better. Our rae
ing boats somehow come in second.
And then, your Bobby Jones comes
over to teach us golf. 1t is time
some one did something about it."
Tiny ridges in the beach, caused
by waves broken by westerly winds,
proved troublesome in the first test.
The giant racer, with George Laven-
der, mechanic. clinging precariously
to the upper surface. rocked along a
10-mile stretch at 100 miles an hour,
but a halt was called.
The mechanic, listening for motor
trouble, reported nothing to cause
alarm, but the speed attained was
not sufficient to test steering quail
tiles or the effect of wind pressure
Rain came up from the southwest
early last night and observers said
the speedway probably would not be
in condition for another test early
today.
81 am here to do the job, however
long ii takes" Maj. Segrave said
while / am at 1t I shall set new
records also for one, two and five
mile distances and for the one, two
and five kilometers."
