Observers here were inclined to the
opinion that the champion Cardinals
had lost nothing in player strength
by accepting lnfelder frankie F'risch

exchange for Hornsby. But they also
pointed oft that only time would tell
whether the loss of Hornsby has

last season was weakened by internal
strife. The Dreyfuss aggregation is
one of the few clubs that have not
