BOSTON, Jan. 22.-LFI-Presi-
dsnt-manager Emil Fuchs Of the
Boston Braves hasn't been VERY
ing about his ball club lately. He
hasn't had time.
The genial magnste, who startled
the baseball world when he sold
Rogers Hornsby and then announced
he would manage the club himself,
does not even know how many play
ers he will have when his squad
gathers At St. Petersburg. Fla, sew
eral weeks hence.
During the last few weeks, when
he should nave been perfecting his
preseason plans, Fuchs has been
kept on the jump explaining his
clubs connection with the passage
o1 the Sunday sports referendum
and his etIorts 10 obtain a Sunday
baseball permit from the Boston city
council.
Fuchs il positive about one thing,
however. he is gong to have plenty
OF assistance managing his lszs
edition Of INK rales After trad
ing hornsoy, he retained Johnny
Eyers and nark Gowdy, WHO played
TOR the club back in the happy dsysi
as his understudies.
Many Veterans
He Is also gong 10 have many vet
eran ball players, for he has CLAIM
Ell or bought every aging star waiv-
cred or put up Tor sale since last
October. Among tiism are Joe Du-
gan, who helped the Yankees win
tive world series. and Rabbit Maran.
vile, who played for the inspired
Braves or asa.
II is moro than likely Dugan will
be holding down third base with
Rabbit az short stop when the sea
son starts. Freddy Mcguire, who
zane from the CuBs In the HorEsby
deal, is the logical choice for sec
ono base, and George Sisler will
probably retain his first base berth.
The others on the infield list are
Lester Bell, Eddie Farrell and Wal
ter Cautreau, all with the club las;
season; Glen Messner. purchased
from Toledo, and q youth named
James. coming up from the Omaha
club IN the Western league.
The best outfield combination sp-
pears to be Lance. RichbOurg and
Earl Clark, back sgsin in right and
center and either George Harper,
late or the Cardinals, or AL Moore
purchased from Buffalo in the left
garden.
Catching Strong
The catching department appears
strong, comprising Jack Taylor. Al
Spoarer and Bill Cronin. veterans
Pat Collins. another ex-Yankee. and
two rockies, Dick Smith. drafted
from Montreal, and Louis Leggett
purchased from Reading.
Fuchs thinks he has II pitchers
but he is not sure that several more
won't appear when the squad as.
senbles in Florida.
The veterans are Ed Brandt, Der
Cantwell, Johnnie Cooney. Arthur
Delaney, Kent Greenfield, Elmer
Hearn, Herman Holshouer. Bot
Smith and Henry Writ. The new.
corners are Percy Jones, another in.
volved in the Hornshy trade. Geo
Leverett, with indianapolis last
season; Bill Cunningham, who per
formed in Los Angeles last year;
Harry Seibold, considered the best
minor league pitcher Of last year,
when he played for Reading, and
