year. that the Yankees will be their
opponents, and that Tony Lazzeri,
of all men. knows the most about
the New York club.
I honestly believe that the San
Francisco italian, for more than a
decade an important cog in the
Yankee machine, was hired on the
gamble that his knowledge of the
Yankees would be of tremendous
help in the fall Certainly, he would
be a great help. He knows the
strength and weakness of every
hitter: knows the same about the
pitchers; knows the strategy of the
team. What a help he would be
to the Cubs if, when October rolls
round. the Cubs clash with the
Yankees.
Reports from the coast, where
the Cubs are training, would seem
to bear out my guess. l have heard
on good authority that he IS not
being taken into the bosom OF the
Cubs family but is being treated
as somewhat Of an outsider. Ii
Owner Wrigley did employ Lazzerl
for the purpose I have named, he
showed in my opinion, sound judg-
ment. The Cubs can't be kept out
of the National pennant forever,
For the past two years now they
have had the strongest team in the
league. Injuries cut them down
last year when they seemed to be
in and the year before they had a
lead which appeared unbeatable.
This year I figure, Wrigley feels
his teams number is sure to come
up, and that when it does he wants
LaZzeri, who knows all there Is TO
know about the formidable Yankees,
TO lend counsel 1t certainly won't
hurt to have him there, and If by
chance his knowledge enabled Wrig-
ley to achieve his dream-a worlds
championship-the $4,000 or $4,000
salary of Lazzeri would be as moth
ing.

TAMPA. Fla, Mar. 28 CUP) =
During the winter a total OF ll,7O0
persons asked me why the Chicago
Cubs signed Tony Lazzeri as coach.
and at a fancy salary. Each time
my answer was the same, Il don't
know"
The sameness Of this answer SO
palled on me that the other day
when the rest of my set was out
robbing birds nest, l secluded my
self. determined to find an answer
to this absorbing baseball question.
One by one I rejected the stock
answers I have read in the news
papers. That Tony had been signed
to eventually succeed Charley
Grimm as manager didn't make
sense to me. Grimm has done
good Job and Owner P. K. Wrigley
is so fond Of him that he probably
would excuse him if his work were
mediocre. Furthermore, in the gen.
erous-siZed person of Gabby Hart
nett the Cubs have the logical sue
cessor to Grimm. 1t didn't add up
that Lazzeri was engaged for his
playing ability. He's still a handy
man around second base, but he IS
more than a few years past his
prime and in Billy Herman the
Cubs have one of the great second
basemen in baseball. Another ex-
planation that didn't tally was that
he was hired to strengthen the
board of control. An American
league all his life. Lazzeri couldn't
be counted on to help much in
planning strategy in the National
league.
SO, by the process of elimination
I finally arrived at what seems to
me the only sensible reason why
Signor Lazzeri was hired by the
Cubs.
This is it: He was hired because
the Cubs feel certain they are go
ing to get in the world series this
