 " RAE

Not only has Joe Cronln reJuv- enated the Boston Red Sox by re- turning to his old post at shortstop, but he also has added needed bat ting power.
 Last year Cronin ran into lots of bad luck. He fractured his thumb early in the season. After that he spent too much time boiling out in steam baths to keep his weight down and he constantly fretted about his inability to earn the high salary Tom Yawkcy was paying him. Not that there was any need for worry. Yawkey is extremely fond of the smiling Irishman fsr whose servic- es he paid Clark Griffith $250,00O. Yawkey often has said he would make the same deal again-even after Cronin failed to show the form he displayed at Washington.
 There was not a harder worker in camp this spring than Cronin The result is that Joe is down to his best playing weight. 175 pounds, and is looking forward to playing 154 games.
