PHILADELPHIA, June % (N.AN
AD.-There are certain dove-gray

fine ballplayers, who do not seem
to be able to find their way into
any part of the newspapers except
the box score, and it would not sur
prise me if couple of them were to

ing headline.
How much do you hear about
Mike kreeVich? Have you ever
heard of Mike Kreevich at all, for
that matter? l have it on the au-
thorlty of most of the managers in
the American League that Kreevich
is one of the three or four best
players in the game today, but the
managers do not write the stories.
The most they can do, when they
have the chance, is vote Michael to
the au-star team. When the fans
vote, the name Of Kreevich is con-
splcuous by its absence. And that's
the only way Mike ever has been
conspicuous. He's remoter from
the public than a trappist monk on

There is q kreevich

To tell the truth, I don't know
who Kreevich is myself I've talked

play dozens of times. but I some
times doubt if there is such a guy.
The only way I can reassure myself
is to check now and then with Joe

other reliable eyewitness.
You bet there is a Kreevich," )"

waste movement, smoother and
deadller expert on ground balls, a
smarter outfielder. or an outfelder
with stronger and more accurate
throwing arm. Now and then some
one takes a chance on Joe Di Mag
gio's arm, or Melvin Otis. But not
on Kreevich's.
That's just the beginning. This
obscure character hits consistently
over 300, and his hits come at the
