very high state of efficiency"
Training in riding and improved

been maintained for forty miles.
Meanwhile, steeds of steel are

been near the sensation that the Ma

is one youngster in our leag,e who
isn't flashing so much as hitter,
but he is making good, That is
Deb Williams of the Athletics. He
wasn't quite good enough in the
spring to make Connie change his
world series infield, but he has made
good understudy for Joe Boley
and Max Bishop.
In one series we played with the
AS, Williams was in Bishops place
at second base and you'd think he
never played anywhere else. He
was knocking down everything that
we hit between first and second.
When we played the next series with
the AS, Joe Boley was out of the
lineup and Williams was grabbing
up everything between second and
third. He looked as good at short
as he had looked at second.

Jimmy Reese are two of the young
