IN NEED Of REST
MihaIic Is Due to Relieve
LeWis-Head Hurt Gusts
Travis-Tigers Bow.
BY FRANCIS E. STAN,
etaf1 CORRESPONDENT OF The Star.

~ RLANDO, Fla, March 81
4 Leadership of the Grape
fruit League" is all well and
~ good, Manager Bucky Har-
ris is convinced, but he began to Won
der today if the price of wear and
tear on his players was worth it.
For eight straight days now Buddy
Lewis has been playing nine innings
every afternoon. So had Cecil Travis
until yesterday, when he was jolted
out of the lineup by a 'beaning,'
and joey Kuhel, also shelved for a
similar injury. In fact, Harris now
is beset with temporary worries over
his infield, which was the one de-
partment to which no troubles were
supposed to be attached.
LAS soon as Ossie Bluege's sore
arm improves so that he can play
short or third" announced Bucky to-
day, as his Mats faced the Cardinals
here, I'm going to yank Lewis and
Travis and give them rests now and
then. Sure it's nice to keep winning
ball games but these exhibition con-
tests aren't important enough to wear
down key men like Buddy and Cecil"
Ahead of the Griffmen still lies the
tough part of their citrus circuit
schedule They've played eight games
and there are 20 more to go before
the American League season OF 154
games is opened on April 81. Harris
means to have his men, particularly
the striplings like Lewis and Travis,
rested and fresh when the curtain
goes up.
MihaIic, Bluege Star as Subs.
CLARK GRIFFITH'S proud and per-
~ ennial boast concerning the
worthiness of his reserves is being
borne out these days as the Mats con-
tinue to ride high. When Kuhel was
struck down by pitch thrown by
Leon Petit of Baltimore on Thurs
day, the venerable Ossie Bluege, sore
arm and all, climbed off the bench
and stepped into the only infield post
at which he had only limited ex-
perience-flrst base.
Yesterday, while the Griffs were
holding inheld practice, Cecil Travis
eye was captured momentarily by a
pop fly off the fungo bat Of Jack
Salveson at second base. A throw
from Catcher Hogan struck Travis
squarely in the forehead, telling him
and throwing a genuine scare into the
entire Washington camp. He was
helped from the field, and Harris had
no alternative but to order Johnny
Mihauc to shortstop to fill the breach
In the process Of whipping the
Tigers by a 6-to-4 count to win VIC
tory No. In a row, Messrs. Mihalic
and Bluege were outstanding. Not
even Travis, with his newly found
brilliance, and Kuhel's mastery could
have surpassed their exhibitions. And
at bat the pair almost were directly
responsible for the triumph.

Griffs, Red Sox improved.

A NY one of five clubs-Detroit, Bos-
ton, Cleveland, Chicago and
Washington-could break up the
Yankee parade. The other entries Of
st. Louis and Philadelphia can't be
considered by any stretch of the imag-
nation. OF the contending group, De-
troit appears the strongest because of
the return to active duty of Hank
Greenberg and Mickey Cochrane,
whose absence blasted Tiger hopes last
year
The most impressively improved
clubs noted over the tour of camps are
the Boston Red Sox and Washington
Senator'S. If you're looking for long
shots with chance, the Red SoX and
Senators are good bets to give a grand
run for your dough.
Running down the standings, as the
clubs finished in 1886, this is how they
look and what they need for 1887:
Yankees-The same club that won
last season by 1912 games. Pitching
not so hot, but should be more than
enough with so much power Problems;
Can Joe Di Maggie escape the second-
year jinx? Can Tony Lazzeri, brain Of
the infeld, stand the gaff another
year? 1t would be a tough blow If
the Yanks lost Poosh- 'em-up Tony.
Detroit-Greenberg's return has
given the Tigers a great punch,
though Cochrane probably never will
be as good again. Pitching is the big
Lo+ INncrtt 10nk-
strong enough.
Griff Infield Is Best.
THICAGO-The general belief is the
~ White Sox played way over their
heads in '36. Good pitching and q
punch, but I can't see them at all.
ashington-There's a club that
can cause trouble. The Senators
should have the best infield in base
ball plus a lot of punch. If they get
pitching, it may be too bad.
Cleveland-Young Bob Feller may
give the indians the spirit so lacking
over the years. Manager Steve O'Neil
has shifted his infeld, obtained new
blood, and rates to come up with a
great pitching staff. But the Indians
must destroy the road jinx-or else.
Boston-They're all overlooking the
gold plated boys. If their rockies
come through and lift the club into
action. watch out. Pinky Higgins
should round out once-faltering in
field.
st. Louis-The start will tell whether
Rajah Hornsby can get somewhere
near the top of second division. The
club looks better, but not good enough.
Philadelphia-Connie Mack says the
AS won't finish last, and he's seldom
wrong. His kids are coming up, but
they're still five good woods and putt
away from the Yankees.
General summary--1f the YANKEES
are to be beaten, two things must
happen: They must get off bad and
lose their supreme confidence, when
borders almost on contempt for the
rest of the circuit. A few young
rockies like Feller must click before
| it's too late.

falo looks good enough to take first
base away from Buck Jordan; Frank
McGowen, Buffalo, is pretty much of

outfield.

sunshine for weary Jimmy Wilson Is

leagues.
Buck has been a chronic headache
to the Washington firm, but wlthal
and paradoxically, not always dis
turbing factor. There are certain en-
barrasSments attached to him, nclud-
ing salary arguments, lack of respon-
sibility, a loose tongue and a couple

tience of his bosses.
Yet he has color, is consist

Mickey isn't ignorant Of blushlng
Bucks eccentricities, they say. Mickey
had a nervous breakdown last year
and has just recovered. Maybe he
wants to take no chances on repeat.
Wanted Fox, Auker for Schultz.
THE vagaries of base ball will take
of the future feelings Of
Cochrane and Griffith. Maybe Mickey
will rue the day he didn't grab
Buck and maybe Grif, as he has
so often done in the past. will
have cause to regret his exorbitant
demands for the big South Carolin-
ian.
It is interesting to note Griff's
activities at the trade marts in
w~oo~k knovUn
tough trader" the Old Fox
has outdone himself since 1884,
when Tom Yawkey tossed
check for $250,00O and Lyn
Larry in his lap and demanded
Joe Cr0nin.
One of Griff's big headaches now
is Freddy Sington, who is playing
right field for the Washingtons. No
body on the Nationals seems to know
whether Fred is going to make the
grade or not, but had Griffith snapped
up a trade offer in 1885 his outfield
worries now would have been nil.
That was the year when Cochrane,
worried over the failure of Pete Fox
to get started, suggested trade OF
Fox for Fred Schultz.
Throw in Elden Auker," responded
Griff, "and it's a deal"
Spurned Pytlak for Bolton.
THAT, of course, queered that. Abb
4 surd, it seems now, but it was q
truth. Shortly afterward Schultz was
waived by all American League clubs
and sold to Pittsburgh for a paltry
sum. Fox braced, became the best
right fielder in the league that season
and emerged from the world series
that Fall as the undisputed batting
hero.
A year ago the Indians fig
ured that maybe Clif Bolton
would 90 we'll in Cleveland,
with its short right-field fence.
They made overtures for Cliffy
and offered frankie Pytlak.
But Griff, who never rated Boil
ton highly, demanded more in
return.
He didn't, OF course, get his price
The Indians decided to stick to PVT

great style until Monte Pearson broke
his jaw with pitched ball. This yea1
Frankie looks so good that Steve
O'Neill recently said he wouldn't trade
him for any catcher in the league
except Bill Dickey. And Bolton again

up as a member Of the Washington
team.
