CARDINALS ! FAST TEAM,
 NAT. LEAGUE
Managers, However, Re call Many Other Clubs
 Faster thdn Leaders
AP FEATURE SERVICE

ST. LOUIS, July 2-The St. Louis Cardinals are called the fastest team in the National League now but several managers can re- call clubs they think were faster.
 Billy Southworth. Cardinal man ager, says his Rochester, Interna- tional League team, of 1880 was the fastest he's ever seen.
 That club really was swift with Pepper Martin, George To- porcer, Rip Collins, Ed Delker, Ray Pepper, Joe Brown, R e d Worthington and myself" he said.
 Manager Bill McKechnie of the Cincinnati Reds favors his 1925 Pittsburgh Pirates, with George Grantham, Ed Moore, Glenn Wright and Pie Traynor in the in field, and Max Carey, Kiki Cuyler and Clyde Barnhart in the out field.
 T believe they were a standout club in speed,' McKechnie says Carey and Cuyler each stole more than 40 bases"
 Manager Bill Terry of the New York Giants sides with the cur rent Cardinals over the 1925 Pi- rates.
 "The Cardinals seem to have the fastest clubs in the league year in and year out" he says. This one seems to have more speed than any of the others, al- though it is difficult to select t over the 1925 Pirates.
 "The way see it, the Cards have at least one more hard run- ner than the old Pirates. But on average speed for the whole line- up, with Mize playing, I imagine the decision would be very close.
 Don't forget the Giants of 1924, for a good second vote. Billy ] Southworth, Ross Young, Irish Meusel, Travis Jackson, Fred Lind strom, Frankie Frisch and I could all move in hurry"
