Bucky's Tigers Here Tomorrow
Starting Set of -Four Games

Nov that warm weather has arrived,
~ Fred Marberry may round into
good condition quickly. The big
pitcher has worked hard since the be-
ginning of training, but has been unable
to get into proper form. No doubt the
cold weather that carried late into
Spring retarded the husky Marberry.
He thrives on heat and always has done
his best work on broiling Summer days.
Only once this season has Fred looked
really good on the pitching hill. That
in the ninth inning of a game in the
recent series with the Athletics here
Then Fred showed plenty of steam and
famed two of the three world cham
pions that faced him.
president CLARK GRIFFITH says
L his Washington club is in the mar
ket to buy any promising player
1t can, but is not prepared to do any
trading. The Nationals have nothing
to spare for trading, the prexy says,
good player that can be found and Is
for sale.
There Is no dickering being done at
present for George Blaeholder, pitcher,
put on the suspended list by the Browns
when he refused to come to terms with
them. As matter of fact, Blaeholder
is not for sale. That's what the st.
Louis club officials declare. Phil Ball,
who owns the Browns, is very well fixed
with this worlds goods, being rather
high in the millionaire class, and isn't
interested in peddling ball players. In
stead, the ST. Louis people say Ball Is
more interested in Furnishing Blaeholder
for holding out this Spring.
