For eight members of the Cardi-
nails are more than 80 years old,
rather aged in a baseball sense,
and six players are on New York's
hospital list with injuries Of vary
ing degree.
As far as the Cardinals are con-
carned, baseball is like golf--an old
mans game. Alexander is II,
Mitchell 81, Haines 35 and Sherdel
80. And these hurIers are counted
upon TO shoulder practically all of
the pitching burden.
Injuries to PennOck, Combs,

the strain on his bum knee, ex-
.periences all the sensations Of a
duffer trying to attain a correct
stance for a drive out of a pit OF
quicksand.
Koenig, with a stone bruise on
his heel, will be cavorting around
the bases with all the speed of an
ice wagon.
Gehrig is minus three teeth as
the result of being kissed by a
baseball in Detroit. Tt was his
hardest knock since the time he
tried to ram his Uranium through a
goal post in scoring a touchdown
for dear old Columbia.
Since the Detroit accident Lar
ripping Lou hasn't been able to

through of his home run swing.
Deprive the Buster Of his

him eggs and he will break out

bles. Give him soup and his

unfortunately he won't get a chance
to utilize his legs until Cedric

which is more than unusual-more

folks must be getting good and are
trying to make things easy for us.
There has been a noticeable de
crease in drunkenness in the city
this summer. Formerly it was not
an unusual thing to pick up four
or five persons over the week end,
following trips to Mexicali. Recent
week-ends have failed to produce
any such eases.
We hope the record keeps up
for a while longer, but not too long,
for then there would be no need Of
