The Low Down On
HICKORY GROVE

T guess just about everybody
democrat or republican-Wlll
agree that Benjamin. Franklin
was quite a person. We debate
Just about everything, but when
it comes to Franklin we kinda
get together - anyway when
we get on the platform or the
radio - and are maybe looking
for votes.
whichever party you are in, is
to agree with Franklin and
Washington and Jackson -
during the campaign.
The thing I got in mind
about Franklin is his saying
cit is difficult for an empty sack
to stand upright" There is
something for Congress to pom
der.
If this Congress which we
have there now wants to do
something so as to go down in
history so their grandsons will
not be ashamed to admit that
grandpa was once there on the
Spendthrift Potomac, they got
ia get busy. pronto.
Yours with the low down,

The infield hasn't jelled as yet
but the most probable regular line
up will be composed of Elbie Fletch-
er at first, Frank Gustine at sec
ond, Arkie Vaughn at short and
Lee Handley at third. The latter
will pressed by Debs Garms, a
combination third baseman and
outfielder who led the league IL
batting last year but hasn't won a
starting job for l941.
Handley will get the call as long
as he keeps hitting because he is
superior fielder, but CAIRNS will
replace him during slumps and at
other times will alternate in the
outfield A newcomer to this group
is Stuart Martin of the st. Louis
Cardinals who served as utility
man in all positions last year. A
rookie who will be retained is 25-
year-old Alfid Anderson, who was
brought up from Atlanta.
The outfield at present is COM
posed of three right-handed hit
ters. Maurice Van Robays is in left,

Elliott in right. Against left-handed
pitching, Frisch can counter with
CAIRNS, Lloyd Waner and Ed Stew.

but he won't beat me. l believe
I can talk him out of the match
A little needing, you know. If the
Babe is willing we'll run a few
bases, do a few slides, and catch
a few flies before tho match, JUST
to warm up, you know.
If the match is played-and its
all up to the Babe noW-I wouldn't
want to mitt it. At 55, Cobb still is
a fine physical specimen and he
plays golf with all the fire and de-
termination he did baseball. I have
played many a game with him, and
he is the only golfer I have ever
seen who, even if he is three down
and there are only Two holes to
play, still figures he has a chance
TO win. He plays each shot as if his
life depended on the outcome of it,
and his behavior after a bad shot
is about the same as it was when
a pitcher busted him off in the
old days.
Like Ruth, Cobb is a left-hander
and his swing retains many of the
features OF the baseball swing. He
tries for a triple or a home run
on every tee shot, just as the Babe
does. He doesn't hit as long ball
as Ruth does, but he probably is
a little surer around the green's.
Cobb's game is from 78 to 80. He
played with Sammy Snead and
Sammy Byrd yesterday and went
around the long and tough Augusta
National layout in 81.
Cobb said if he did play Ruth
the Babe could expect a little talk
ing and ribbing.
After all" he said, I'VE are a
couple of all players and can stand
a little noise. Let the gallery yell
and boo and do anything it pleases.
AS a matter of fact, l probably
would play little better with an
occasional boo from the customers
I heard quite a bit of that in the
old days, you know

League Baseball
Games Expected 10
Be Postponed

The valley high school league
schedule was expected to be de-
layed one week Tuesday in order
not to conflict with the two major
league exhibition games to be play
ed in Ell Centro Thursday and Fri
Gay and to allow Coach Sheldon
Loughborough to attend a physical
education conference in Fresno this
week.
El Centro was scheduled to meet
Brawley on Friday afternoon in
BraWley but it was believed the
game would be postponed until next
Tuesday according to Loughborough
Delay of the game will give
BraWley busy schedule next week
because the northenders are sche-
duled to meet Yuma on Wednesday
and tangle with CaleXico in CaleX-
leo on Friday.
CaleXico scheduled only light
workouts for this week because of

incidentally Brawley could dc
well to fix up the high jump and
pole vault pits before the county
meet. When El Centro opposed
braWley on the northend track
where the county meet will be held
there was considerable rumbling
from the Central athletes regarding
the two pits.
Brawley went to a good deal of
effort to land the county meet this
season. We hope they will extend
just as much effort to put their
track and field plant in shape for
the annual title event.
Joe BerkOuitz
There was a one paragraph story
IN the coast papers Tuesday morn
ing, revealing the release of Joe
BerkoWltz by the San Diego Padres,
but there is more behind the story
than the bare fact that Berky
IS out of a job.
at San Diego for the past couple
OF seasons. One OF the classieSt
fielders in the coast league, Berk-
owitz was relegateG to a utility role
and seldom received a chance to
show his wares.
Then he held out for more money
this season, failed to get it and
was finally released when he re-
fused to take a salary cut from the
management.
Berky is free to deal for himself
now and will probably land with
another coast league club. And he
may become a star. He is a fair
hitter and Tiny Jim Chaplin. one
OF the keenest baseball men we
have ever known, said, "Berkowitz
is the best infielder in the coast
league. You have to be a pitcher
to realize it, but Berky cuts off
more hits than any man in the
loop
His errors?'
"Berky makes errors on chances
no other field would touch"
