Cubs Optimistic
Even With Trio

Good Subs for GoIun,

BY TOM SILER,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

CHICAGO, April 10-You don't
hear the Chicago Cubs singing the
hard luck blues, even though three
players-an expensive shortstop,
outfielder and pitcher-are un-
known quantities eight days before
the National League race starts.
And the reason for their un-
abashed optimism in the face of
hardships, says Augie Galan, the
ailing outf1elder, is because the
league champions have the rockies
to fill the gaps.
Galan, tan and lean, returned
yesterday from training with the
Cubs with swollen knee DR.. John
F. Davis, Cubs physician, was
scheduled to X-ray the injury today
to determine whether an operation
was necessary. Galan first injured
the knee during the last season,
and was out of 40 games and most
of the World Series.
Gleeson Ready" Says Vet.
The ailing knee puts him in the
question mark class along with
Dick Bartell, 4,0O0-a-year short
stop now here receiving treatment
for a sore ankle, and Dizzy Dean
of the celebrated $185 900 sore arm.
"Of course, I hope to be in there
within short time, but you never
can tell" said Galan, an important
cog in the offensive and defensive
setup of the team.

this Jim Gleeson can take over in
fine style. He's been looking great
this spring, has a fine arm, is fast
and hits well. I think he's ready for
the majors" (The Cubs bought
Gleeson, who is 26, from Newark Of
the International League last year,.
High Hopes for Lillard.
"At short, we've got Steve Mesner.
(Another rookie, 81 years old He
has been improving rapidly in the
field lately and his hitting has been
fine all along. Then, we've got a
young pitcher named Gene Lillard,
who should get going. All the hoys
think he's set for good season and
I'm sure Manager Gabby Hartnett
feels the same.
Its a great ball club. We've got
power-more than we had last sea-
son-and think a much stronger
team.
Hartnett sent Dean to the mound
yesterday for the first time this
spring, using him two innings agaist
the st. Louis Browns at San Anto-
MO. The big Highlander issued
two walks, allowed three hits and
gave up two runs, both of which
were unearned.

-Four A. A. Clubs Open
Season Thursday
With New Pilots
By the Associated Press,

6y the ASSoc1Ateo FIess.
CHICAGO, April 10.-Four Of the
eight American Association baseball
teams face the barrier Thursday
with new managers.
The opening day schedule pits
st. Paul against Toledo, Mime
apolis against Columbus, Kansas
City against Indianapolis and Mil
waukee against Louisville. The last
named team in each case Is the home
team on the curtain-raising pro-
gram.
One of the managerial changes
involved the veteran DOME Bush,
one-time big league pilot, who moved
from Minneapolis to Louisville as
skipper. His predecessor at Louis
vile was Bert Niehoff. His success
sor with the Millers is Tom Sheehan.
Toledo hired Myles Thomas to
take over the reins laid down by
Fred Haney when he was boosted to
the American League as boss of the
st. Louis Browns. Mickey Heath
succeeded AL Sothoron at Milwaukee.
The other four teams retained
their 1898 managers-Foster (Babe)
Camel aat st. Paul. Bill Meyer at
Kansas City, Brit Shotton at Co.
lumbus and Ray Schalk at Indian
apolis.
st. Paul won the title in the reg
ular season last Summer but lost the
Shaughnessy playod to Kansas City,

None of the teams has returned
North from Florida and Texas yet,

NEW YORK, April 10.-Leaders
are being shufied as fast In the

Cy Blanton pitched no-hitter
against the Cleveland Indians yes

balls in nine innings and just three
solid blows were struck by the Tribe.
All went foul. Last Tuesday he scat
tered six hits through seven frames
against the st. Louis Browns.

Cleveland collapsed right into the
cellar by losing three of five games.
Besides going hitless yesterday. the
Indians were held to two safeties by
a couple of Mobile, Ala, hurlers and

Walter will be back with the Mats

sent to Charlotte because he was
picked up by the Mats last summer

to a minor league contract and
pitch at least one game for that
team.
He's Too Good to Lose.
Walter was signed to Charlotte

game for a minor league team. That
Is why he will be left behind tomor-
row night when the Mats embark
on the last lap of their voyage from

He'll pitch one or two games for
Charlotte" said Grifith, "and then
we'll yank him right back. We just

Dodgers Proverbia|
Dizziness Due Boost
From Poffenberger
Tigers Problem Child
Pitcher Fits Brooklyn
Scheme Of Things
By the Associated Press.

DETROIT, April 10.-Extremely
helpful In seeing that the Brooklyn
Dodgers maintain their reputation
as baseball's gift to comedy, the
Detroit Tigers sold them Cletus
Elwood Boots or Baron) Poffen-
berger, their oft-suspended, oft-fined
and oft-missing pitcher.
Thus the Tigers, who announced
the deal at Macon, Ga, yesterday,
closed one chapter on pleasant
Poffy's reckless career. Unconfirmed
reports said Brooklyn paid $4,000
for the 23-year-old German-Dutch
righthander.
A tendency to stray away for days
at a time was Poffenberger's great
est weakness.
Once when he was given a ticket
and ordered back to Detroit for in
fractions of q team curfew on an
Eastern trip Poffy asked for some
spare cash also and went to his
home in Maryland instead.
To help him manage his affairs
better, the Detroit club handed
Poffenberger a weekly pay check
throughout the year.
Two years ago he came to Detroit
from Beaumont exhuding confidence.
Minor league upstart" was the first
local reaction. But he beat Lefty
Grove and the Boston Red Sox in
his first start. He finished the sea-
son With 10 victories and 5 defeats.
Temptations were many, however,
and Poffy was often in the doghouse.
But he always came back with frank
accounts and was forgiven. He
never was evasive about his es-
capades.
But when he kept it up in 1888 the
Tiger bosses ran out Of pardons and
exiled him to the minors.
Fat and out of shape, Poffenberger
came several days late to camp this
spring. That was the last straw.
