good pitchers and that kid Scharein
knows how to handle the ball at
shortstop even though he is little
green and mainly used to second
base. Yeah, we've got some good
youngsters ourselves. We figure
Martyrs going okay out there in the
outfield now and that Shoun is a
pitcher almost anybody would like
to have.
"Parmalee? We let him pitch his
own games because we know he's
got as much as anybody in the
league when he's right. If he gets
into trouble the infield doesn't come
charging in telling him how to pitch
and neither do the boys start yell

job together even IL he has lost q

whats that? You're blamed well
right we're pleased with Frey and
he may win regular job with us if
those others don't continue to hustle.
He's helped us a lot. Right now
we're practicing him in the cutfield
more than any place else and that
may turn out to be his spot because
there's a chance, his arm may not
be quite good enough for shortstop.
Anywhere we play him is okay
with him, though, because he's q
swell kid to handle and loves to
play. Fast, too. When we got him

Terry More Certain
Than Ever Cubs Are
Giants Big Threat

HERE'S what they say:
L l. Bill Terry-"The more we look
at the rest of the league the more
we figure those Cubs are the ones
we have to beat. of course you
can't tell how well their pitching
will stand up, but with Hartnett
back there catching it looks lot
better. They stayed up close to the
top when they were having plenty OF
hard luck and now their power boys
are back in action they're bound to
be tougher.
"What? Yes, that's right. They've
been something like us with Leiber
out and Otty not doing so good.
Don't know when Hank'll be back,
either. You know they only gave
him light food when he was in the
hospital and now he's got to build
himself up again before he can
take chances on hard playing In
the hot sun.
"Tough break that, because he
certainly looked swell in spring
training, but let me tell you some
thing. That other guy out there in
his place (Ripple) isn't going to hurt
any ball club. He's hitting close to
300, won a couple of games on
the road that nobody seems to have
given him credit for, and he can
field as good, or better, than any
body you can name in the league.
Jersey City? It's a great base
ball town with one of the finest
parks I've ever seen, and our tieup
is bound to be helpful both to the
Giants and to the folks over there.
We bought in too late to do any
, real good this year though, even
if we have got plenty of money to
spend and so we can't promise any
thing this season. But we're i'm
proving. / was talking to Travis
jackson recently and he says Bluege
is just the shortstop we've needed
over there. Also there's couple
of other deals we may swing before

was her grandniece who lately at
tanned the headlines by suggesting
that, with the addition of a buckle
here and a ribbon there, nightie
would make a suitable evening
gown for almost any occasion.
Thus do we see how from one gen.
Grafton on to another is handed
down the flame of genius and serv-
ice to womankind.
But, although the inspired sugges-
ton is already weeks old, there still
are no signs that it is finding adj
vocates among the queen bees of
the cultural hive. Maybe the rea-
son is that a belle of the Hollywood
