Frisch Is Optimistic
About BUGS After
Fearing Trouble
Finds Squad Ambitious,
Expects Good Season
For Rvomped Club
By the Associated Press.

SAN BERNARD1NO Calf. March
11.-Frankie Frisch, who had Ger
tain misgivings at first when he
took over managership of the
Pirates, now is spouting optimism
over the prospects of his initial
season with the revamped Pitts
burgh National League club.
II looked for trouble when train
ing started" the one time Fordham
Flash reflected today, as the Pirates
started their third week of exact
ing workouts under his tutelage.
But what I found was just the
opposite.
Three Rocks "Outstanding."
Instead of being inclined to play
indifferently or to break training
rules, I want to tell you this is
one of the finest groups I ever came
in contact with. They all listen to
advice and instructions and try to
do everything told them"
Frisch said three recruits have
been outstanding" sizing them up
like this: frankie Gustine, "fast
and aggressive" at second base;
Floyd Yount, outfielder, "far above
the ordinary; Ace Parker, "looks
great at short"
Turning to his pitchers, he said:
MAX Butcher and Bob Kinger still
are trif1e heavy, but both are in
good condition. Dick Lanahan's left
arm has been slightly afflicted with
soreness. Russell Bauers, whose
right ripper was ailing. reports that
the aches now have almost COM
pletely disappeared"
Hurlers to Get Long Turns.
The rest of the pitchers are in
such good shape" "quoth Frisch, "that
when me meet Connie Mack's Ath-
letics on Thursday in San Ber-
nardino, it is my plan to let the
hurlers work four or five innings
each"
The game will start the Pirates
exhibition series.
