XXTHEN that marvellous smuggling
w mark of $40 posted by Frank
Sigafoos failed to get a rise out Of
the big league scouts last year, it
was attributed to fielding flaws
around second baSe-lack Of finesse
in starting or completing double
plays and shortcomings on coming
up fast enough with balls driven to
his right.
In addition to leading the Amer
lean Association in hitting percen-
tage, Sigafoos also led the league
in two-baSe hits Moreover, he broke
the league record in consecutive
game hitting by crashing the horse
hide to a safe spot one or more
times in thirty mine straight con-
tests.
It is evident that if Sigafoos IS
going to return to the majors it
won't be as a second baseman. On
this theory Frank is being tried out
at third base and in the outfleld at
the Indians spring training camp.
The guess is that Siggie's best
chance to graduate hinges on his
ability to learn fly chasing. He is
too valuable as a hitter to leave out
of the lineup.

Eddie RouSh, the old-time big
Lacquer, donned a uniform and
helped out the YanniganS by serv-
ing in the capacity of a first base
man. Bedore's home run was a
hefty blast and scared over the left
field wall in the fourth stanza. one
mate was on the paths when Fred
connected.
Frank Sigafoos, the Tribes regu-
lar second baseman, was stationed
at third base for the Regulars. He
had an idle day in the field, no
chances coming his way. The $40

four times up. He was used in the

second and Vernon Washington was
in the third "hole." Sigafoos and
Rosenberg were next and Sherlock
followed Rosenberg, and then Bedore,

hits obtained by the defeated Yam
