 From Palm Beach to Catalina Islands the whack of the base-hit has been echoing and re-echoing as the big league baseball clubs have swung into the spring training campaign. The boys are taking toe-holds for every swing at the piate, rockies as well as veterans.
 The Detroit Tigers picked up a promising Bronx youngster and first baseman, just out of high school, in Henry Greenberg. Henry came up to bat in the first exhi- bition game of the season at Tam pa, after Dale Alexander had put two out of the park, and slammed the ball over the left field fence. Over at Orlando, the longest drive registered in the first week of Cin- cinnatis practice was not made by Harry Heilmann or Bob Meusel but by Tony Cucclnello, the recruit ln- fielder from Columbus. Cucclnello put the ball over the left-field fence, which measures 40 feet from the plate.

Defensive skill is not being over- looked but the records most closely scanned, so far as rockies are con- cerned, are their batting perform ances.

The St. Louis Browns willingly would trade some fast foot-work for heftier punch.
 All four of the second-division National League teams last year, Philadelphia, Brooklyn, Cincinnati and Boston, have added batting strength.
