Chick" Frasier, former scout
for the Pittsburgh Pirates, has
been added to the gumshoe squad
of the Brooklyn Dodgers. The
Flatbushers now have four seek
ers for the precious ivory, the
veteran Larry Sutton being chief

The extension of the Brooklyn
farm holdings is believed to have
prompted the addition of Frasier.
The new Brooklyn scout was a

the league, while with the Bucs,

NEW FL|NGER
TOBE ADDED,
|SFEELING
BY GARRETT WATERS
Times staff Correspondent

PHILADELPHIA. May 80.
Pitchers, pitchers, pitchers! A
kingdom for a couple Of 'em!
That's the crying need Of the
Griffmen these days with sew
eral tough double-headerS ahead,
not to mention the fact that
an important western trip is
to be taken soon.
Yes, sir, the situation is one
of grave concern now because
of the uncertainties attached to
the future showing of all those
numbered as hurlers on Manager
JohnSon's staff.
Foremost worried about con-
ditions is Manager johnson, who
must plan on whom to use every
day. Your Uncle Clark Griffith
is next concerned because 1t Is
his aims and duty to provide
Washington with a winning team.
And lastly, but not least. the
pitchers on the staff are worried
because of the work they realize
is before them to win.
Griff Is Up q Tree
Prexy Griff is reticent these
days in regards to possible addl-
tions. He admits he's trying but
up to now has not been able to
consummate the slightest sort OF
deal.
However, there's a feeling
around the club newcomer may
be added before very long. Who
it is, or from what club he will
come, is not known, but the feel
ing prevails there's going to be an
addition just the same.
"Our team" could use another
crack hurler, there's no doubt
about that. This, even though
General Alvin Crowder, Lefty
Brown, Carl Fischer and Monte
Weaver, have turned in several
excellent efforts this season.
Busy Day Ahead
The present crop of Griff
hurlers faces an unusually busy
time of it ahead this week. This
Philadelphia series promises to be
plenty trying. while the six games
against the Boston Red Sox be-
ginning Wednesday and lasting
through Saturday. will offer a
thorough test even though the
Collins team is not the most diff
cult to defeat in the league.
The Griffs might win a major
ity Of these tough games if the
several players supposed to be hit
terS come through at the bat to
offset inconsistencies in the box.
This item, and only this, will pull
the team through, so it will be
interesting to note just whether
"Our Boys" will come to life at
bat or not during the next seven
days.
Although they did not overhaul
the Yankees in the series with the
McCarthymen which ended yes
terday, the Griffs showed signs of
coming to life" in the several
games. These facts were noted by
the manner in which the players
conducted themselves both at bat
and from the pitching peak:
