OF course. there are a couple Of
obstacles which, for some reason,
they haven't stopped to consider.
One Of them, right here in Los
Angeles, is Mr. John McGraw and
his New York Giants. It seems
that the Giants, who have been out
of the first division only twice since
McGraw took over the reins in
1903, have some similar ideas.
Admitting, for arguments sake,
that the Giants can be tucked away
there IL another hurdle in the form
OF the st Louis Cardinals. And 1t
seems that the Cards are entitled to
considerable respect from any team
with cham pionship visions.
Rajah Is Satisfied

ticularly like the confidence every
player shows. We all know we
have some tough teams to lick. But
everyone here feels we can do It,"
Considerable strength has been
added to the infield. Young STANLEY
Mack. now facing his 22d summer,
practically has cinched a regular
berth at third base. Hack, a formre
bank clerk, was bought from Sac
ramento in the Coast League after
one successful season with that
team.
He hit 1853 and did some en-
pert fielding for the Senators.
Bill Herman, Cub recruit last
year, has been named the regular
second sacker, the position played
by Hornsby part of tho time during
1881. The "Rajah" doesn't intned

less necessary.
Harry Taylor, obtained from
Seattle will back UP Charley Grimm

for the veteran. And Elwood Eng
lish will be the regular shortstop,

any time he may be needed.
Old Hack Not Missed
On the face OF things 1t appears
that the outfeld has been strength
ened quite bit by the loss of Hack
Wilson. In any event. Their Is more
peace in the club now that he has
gone to Brooklyn.
Moore Ready To Go?

Hornsby isn't worrying about his
