Star Hurler Expects Chicago
Cubs to Give Toughest
Opposition
BY CARL HUBBELL
New York Giants Pitcher

I believe the Giants will win the
National League pennant again this
year. Well have the same lineup as
far as regulars are concerned. Terry
may have done little trading with
his reserves and we'll have the usuaI
new supply of rockies" bidding 70,
berths. but none of the old faces vii
be absent.
We have young club Most OF
our players are still on the sum,
side OF their playing prime and there,
no reason why We shouldn't all get 8
little better than last year.
Bill Terry is another good reason
why the Giants must be figured as
the team to beat" Terrys a fine
leader and as long as he's handling
the Giants, they're going to have the
right spirit and the determination tc
win.
schumacher and Parmelee should be
even more effective than last year and
my old roommate, Fred Fitzsimmons,
can always be counted on for victories
! hope to continue taking my turn
on the mound.
Our most dangerous contender, I
believe, will be the Chicago Cubs. They
have "Chuck" Klein from the Phillies
'Kiki" Cuyler. who broke his leg early
last season, will be back in there and
with Babe Herman the third man in
the outfield, they'll have powerhouse
What's more they have some great
pitchers in Bush and Warneke.
Pittsburgh. runner-up last season
will be hard to heat again. THEY'VE
added Red Lucas on a trade with
Cincinnati and Red will give them
the one more good pitcher they need
to make them strong in every depart
ment. The Pirates are like the Giants
In a lot OF ways-they're full Of hustle
and fight and those Waner boys must
be considered all the time.
From here on. It's hundred per cent
guess work. The only team that 1
firmly believe will be in there fight
ing for top place is the Giants and
they'll have tougher going all the way
because everyone will be pointing for
them instead of standing by and say

the Giants last season?

CANDO JOINS REGION LEADERS
AFTER BEATING KLOTEN 1888

I think Bill Terry was by far the most
valuable individual on our club I've
seen a lot of players made managers
and Terry was the first one able to
make the change without letting it
hurt him any.
Time and again. I've seen taxable
fellows put into managers job and
each time something happens to
them, They tighten up, They feel
that they have to drive their team and
they build UP wall between them.

Bill Terry however. didn't take 1t
like that. He Just went on being nat
ural and likeable and LED instead
Of trying to DRIVE.
After Terry, I'd put Mancuso. He
did lot more than just catch. He
nursed the pitching staff along and
brought out the best in all Of us. Pitch
ers rarely "shook off" signal he
called. I don't believe Schumacher
or Parmelee ever did refuse to throw
what he called for I know that
Fitzsimmons or rarely did.
After those two, I find it hard to
say Probably Mel OFT. He got hits
when they were needed, and during
the series his two homers were most
important In the eventual outcome.
Outside Of his ability, Mel is one swell
kid.
His two mates In the outfield are
both good young players with lot
of fight and fielding ability. Neither
Moore nor Davis are as heavy slug

circuit. but they're young and their
greatest days are ahead,
