The Braves are so sanguine that
they can win with the group that
made a serious threat for the
flag that they will take no young
Sters to the training yard. The
Cubs are just going to test two
young hurlers, while the only
man the Giants will bother ex-
perimenting with is Bowman, who
was something of a sensation Of
the Pacific Coast last season.
Keep Paul Dean
The Cards probably will keep
Paul Dean and Heise, two good
shots from the Columbus team of
the American Association. The
Phillies will cart down half a
dozen young pitchers and the
Reds may go as high as the
Quakers, although their talent will
be chiefly for minor league farms.
Catchers will welcome a chance
to devote their time in the spring
games to working with the sea-
soned campaigners, but the Ameri-
can League will see pelnty of
talent coming up to make bids
for permanent jobs.
Out in Detroit, Mickey Coch-
rane will undertake the biggest
job of his baseball career, and
that expert maskman had the job
of tanning Lefty Grove when the
big southpaw was wild pitcher.
1t will be Cochrane's job not
only to manage the Tigers but to
straighten out the veteran pitch
ers and develop the group of
young pitchers which has been
hauled in from the Detroit chain
farms.
Upon the success of Cochrane
as a developer of pitchers will
rest the pennant chances of the
Tigers. If Cochrane can get one
more starting hurler out Of the
group of recruits the pernant
fight won't be all in the East.
Auker to Be Tried
Auker will be tried again in the
spring by Detroit. He was good
pitcher in the Texas League and
showed flashes of form at De-
troit, but was handicapped some
what by catching that was a bit
green. The Tigers have also
called back some pitchers who
have been on the major league
firing line before.
Another bright pitching pros
pect that Cochrane will have with
him Is Larkin, who rolled UP 20

The Court of Appeals has gone
into training for its Easter recess
and only handed down one
opinion yesterday. Associate
Justice Van Orsdel wrote the
opinion, which was in the case
of Ickes VS.. Guyana Mining and

The case involved a claim of
the assignee of the appellee
against the Interior Department
for reimbursement of losses suf-
fered by the assignor in mining
manganese during the war. The
District Supreme Court had up
held the claim, but the Court of

Instead of securing far and

why doesn't Dick Mothershead,
ever.ready manager Of Sholl's
basketball team, winner Of 80
consecutive games, try to ar
range a game with Eastern High,

mission to Mike Kelley, Lincoln
Parkers' crafty coach, to play
the Cafemen.

The game could be played in
Techs spacious gymnasium, and
q capacity crowd would doubtless
be on hand.

NEW YORK, Feb. 20 Q.N.S0.
The market seems to have gone
a little stale after its rise since
last Thursday. This brought con-
siderable profit-taking and was
responsible for yesterdays rapid
sell-out. Sentiment fundamental

but the disposition is to wait and
see how the market control bill
shapes up before getting aggres-
sive again. In the meantime,
business news continues cheerful,
and this will limit reactions.
There is considerable talk
around about the state of the
elder Rockefeller's health.
Perhaps this may be a slight
market influence here, though
there is little doubt that the

prepared for eventualities. In

Oil has acquired $7,000,000 more
in the open market in the last
