WAUCHULA, Fla, April 1.-THE
Indians are not doing any too well
in the grapefruit league, but they
are getting valuable practice under
fire and Manager Killefer believes
the squad will be ready to jump off
in full stride on April IL when the
American Association season opens.
The Tribesters were at Lake Wales
today to tackle the Milwaukee
Brewers, and tomorrow the Cream
City aggregation will play a return
exhibition here.
Chief Killefer employed three
hurlers yesterday in the tilt staged
here with the Toronto Interna-
tionals and the visitors pounded out
a 7-to-4 victory at the expense of
rookie COX" Hartley of Evansville
in the sixth and seventh innings.
Logan Holds Leafs
Lefty Bob Logan worked for the
Hoosiers the first five stanzas and
left the mound with his team in
front, 2 to l. Rookie Stith hurled
the final two innings.
Bob Fausett, the Tribe new third
sacker, combed the leather for two
singles, double and triple. Home
runs were poled by Heath of the
Indians and Oliver of Toronto. Hit
totals were II for indianapolis and
Is for the Leafs.
Second Baseman Vincent Sher-
lock is due to rejoin his mates after
several weeks of training with the
Brooklyn Dodgers. He was turned
back to the Indians and it will be
necessary to sign him to a new con-
tract.

ing out with Brooklyn. He is out
of the Bi-State League, where he
batted 1897 last year and hit 10
homers. He is a six-footer and is
fast. Killefer agreed to look over
Williams at the request of Manager
Stengel of the Dodgers. 1t has no
part in the Johnny Cooney deal
with Brooklyn.
Including today's game at Lake
Wales, the Indians are to play four
more exhibitions in Florida before

Manager Fred Haney, the ASSo-
cations best third baseman last
year, will be kept on the bench when
the season opens, by an operation
which he underwent in January. His
return to the lineup is so prob
lematical that lines already have
been put out for a successor.
AS the team shapes up in spring
training, the pitching staff and the
lnfield promise to be the backbone.
Outfield to Mound
Three starting pitchers from last
year are back-Danny Boone, Paul
Sullivan and Irwin Stein. Ray Fritz
from Montreal and Lou Garland,
who won 10 games for Los Angeles.
last year, fortify the staff. In addi-
ton, Southpaw Alta Cohen has been
moved from left field to the mound.
The close of last season saw him
winning four and losing two.
Oliver Thomas, a rookie with a
curve ball, has impressed Haney in
early workouts.
Haney said he would be dis
appointed if Boone didn't turn in
from Is to 20 victories this year.
Haney's absence is a blow to a
potentially first-class infield. Hs
hopes to get replacement from De-
troit which also owes him a pitcher
from the deal that sent Roxie Law
son to the world champions. Utility
Man Jack Calvey probably will cover
the hot corner until requirements
come.
Parker at Short
SALTY" Parker, who hit 1886 last
year, probably will be back at
shortstop. To round out the double
play combination, the Hens have
Al Vincent from Beaumont in the
Texas League. Vincent hit 1903 last
season.
Harry Davis, who played first base
for Toledo in 1884, before heading
for Portland via Detroit, is back
again. Davis is a smooth fielder
and hit .312 for Portland last year.
His acquisition plugs up bad hole.
The outfield still is a question
mark. Mike Powers, who hit .339
last year, but whose legs are slowing
up, is the only sure starter. Powers
is helping Hany run the team.
Hubert Shelly, sent to Toledo from
Beaumont by Detroit, is leading the
spring training race for center field.
Feft field is the problem for which
left-handed slugger would be the
solution. Rockies Sam Hancock,
Tom Leonard and Clarence Young

fresh, .352 hitter from the Three-I

Middle Atlantic League, have showed

they succeed in landing hitting
outfielder, a starting pitcher and
fill-in third baseman for Haney.
they should become pennant con-
tenders.
