At least one promising infielder-
has been obtained. He is "Peewee"
Wanninger, who hit for 316 in st.
Paul last season. WanEinger was
with the Yankees in 1925, playing a

displaying little power as batter.

been obtained. The same outfielders,

Haneys light batting average of
.221 last season may cause his fail
ure to hang on. Wanninger is bet
ter fielder than Rigney and, if he
can hit well enough, he may force
the former Tiger over to third base,
position not strange to him. Ty
Cobb frequently used him at third
base with Detroit.
Bill Rogell. who was with the Red
Sox while last year. is coming up
for another trial after hitting .270

Jack Rothrock is another coming

with the Rochester InternationaIs in

WET STUFF

DIR. Charles r. Stockard, pro-
fessor of anatomy in Cornell Uni
yersity, read a paper before 200
physicians of the Medical Assoc
iation of New York, in which he
gave the results of his experiments
with two guinea pigs, for a term
of four years.
One guinea pig was made drunk
six days every week during four
years. Its mate in the same pen
was kept a teetotsl for four years.
The pig that got drunk every day
except Sundays was no worse for
IFS debauchery than the one that
never touched a drop.
The doctor has conducted such
experiments OVER period of sev-
cnteen years with 5000 pigs and
observed that alcohol did not only
not harm the pigs but actually
heightened out their life span.
He saws that life Insurance com
panies' statistics in which heavy
moderate and occasional drinkers
ire all Jumped together, are re,
sponsible for the impression that
the consumption of alcohol is In

serts that for porsols older than
thirty drinking has 10 effect what
ever on the length of life.
That must have been a consol-
ing, comforting and encouraging
speech for the guzzling, tipplina
