Players who have been batting against

With Castleman out and Hubbell's
left arm one year older, the importance
Of Bakers showing cannot be ex-
aggerated. Terry is going to pitch
Hub only in his regular turn this sea-
son, shifting the most important relief
jobs to Melton's slim shoulders. and
that calls for q lot more pitching
balance.
Unless both Hal Schumacher and
Harry Gumbert look great from the
start, Terry plans to carry 10 pitchers.
Bill Lohrman and Hy Vandenberg,
from Baltimore, have been told they
will stick. Dick Coffman, Don Brennan
and the ponderous Walter Brown prob
ably will round out the big staff.
Sees Melton Getting Better.
There's not doubt in Terry's mind
that Melton is going to be . better
pitcher than IN his frehhman year,
when he won 20 games; nor is he wor-
ried about any other spot on his club.
He's confident that John Mccarthy
will clout over 800 ut first base this
year. and he's planted big Hank
Leiber In center field to sink or swim.
Hank finally has shaken of the head
aches that troubled him after he was
beaned by one Of Bob Feller's fast balls
early last year.
\The other jobs are equally secure:

Mel OFT at third, Dick Bartell at short,

BOSS SURE TITLE
AGAIN DUE GIANTS
Sees Baker Taking Place of
CaStIeman and Melton
Getting Better.
BY GAYLE TALBOT,
Associated Press Sports Writer

BATON ROUGE, La. March o.
The Giants, to whom rival National
League folks are fond Of referring As
lucky stiffs," are far along in their
training here on the banks Of the
Mississippi. and Col. Bill Terry says
he thinks they're going to win another
flag.
Il don't see anybody to beat u.s." he
said, unless both Dizzy and Daffy
Dean should come back and pitch for
the Cards like they did few years
ago. But I won't believe that until
I see it."
There's something wholly charming
about the Giants camp. Col Terry
isn't glowering at the sports writer's
and there's an atmosphere of sublime
confidence. Others might worry about
the Giants and try to fgureaput what
holds them up, but there's none Of that
around here. They've shaken of that
beating they took from the Yankees
in the last World Series.
Not Excited About Nowak.
So nicely are things breaking that
Terry couldn't even get excited when
his rookie second baseman, Bill Nowak,
turned up in the Cleveland Indians
training camp yesterday. He would
get him back, he said, and let it 60
at that.
Terrible things have been happen
ing to US all spring." Bill said. Castle
man refused to report, Burgess White
head was operated upon for Appendix
citis and Dolfo Luque pulled q Cuban
sit-down strike on me. And it looks
like we're going to be = better ball
club than ever"
Largely responsible for Bills expan-
sive mood is his suspicion that in Tom
Baker he's found q right-hand pitcher
who will make him forget all about
Clydell Castleman. Since watching
Baker pitch three innings against the
Athletics last Sunday at Lake Charles,
the colonel has quit wiring Castleman
to report instantly.
Bakers Speed Impresses.
II don't know whether to believe it
or not, but II Tom is q good rs he
looks now I've got pitcher to team
up with Carl Hubbell and Cliff Mel
ton," said Terry. He struck out five
Of the nine Athletics who faced him
and the others popped up. I never
saw much better speed"
The Giants had Baker all last season,
having obtained him In . swap with
Brooklyn for Fred Fitzsimmons, but

NEW YORK. March s.-Lou dehrig.
the New Rochelle dude rancher. is
making what well may be his final
stab at the big money, and, TO date.
Jake Rupert is doing neat Job Of
parrying.
Some fancy haggling yesterday
brought the Messrs. Rupert and
Gehrig to q point where only 81 900
separated Lou from . signed contract
and departure for st. Petersburg, Fla,
and the Yankee camp. The Iron
Horse wants $4,000, the colonel Of
fers $4,000. The market was steady
at closing time.
The sum Gehrig asks symboli1es to
him the fulfillment of one Of his
ambitions He realizes that II he is

ball players have approached, this is
the year to get it.

which is not an awesome figure until
1t is broken up into the quick starts
and stops. slides, o6-balance throws
and times at bat that make up 1852
consecutive ball games.
This, then. is the time to grab that
$4,000, for Lou cannot look forward
to many more years of service, despite
his pylonlike legs and barrel chest.
Louis admission that $4,000 Is an
old ambition discredits the story that
he is waiting to sign q contract until
he Is sure that Joe d. Maggie, the
Italian outfielder. will not collect more
from the colonels privy purse than
he will.
The colonel IS pretty definite on
that.
Firm Regarding Di Magic.
"Di Maggie can stay home II he
doesn't want to play ball for S25. 000."
declared Rupert yesterday. The Yanks
have not heard from Joe since he re-
peated his original refusal to accept Q
$4,000 increase and demanded 80, 900
for the season.
The colonel may be q little mif1ed.
I'm tired Of al this dilly-dallying.
All things considered I think I have
been reasonable. Here are two fellows
who say they do not want to play ball
