Athletics Will
Finish Fifth
Maybe Fourth, So
Soys Al Simmons

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla, Feb.
9-(P)-The Philadelphia Ath-
letics who wound up last season
in eighth, will finish the coming
season in fourth place If they
get the breaks and mo worse
than fifth no matter what hap
pens"
That's the starry-eyed predic-
ton of AL Simmons, "old Bucket
foot" who is now a coach for
Connie Mack.
Simmons optimism WASH
shaken by the fact that the Ath-
letics lost their brightest star,
outfielder Sam Chapman, and
their regular second baseman,
Benny Mccoy, to the Army and
Navy.
GOOD HITTERS
"We hit only a point less than
the Yankees last season. he ex-
planned, land we lost a lot of
games that a little better pitch
ing might have won. / think our
hitting will be as good and our
pitching better this year.
Naturally, losing Chapman Is
going to hurt plenty. He hit 1872
and drove in 100 runs last year.
And Mccoy was coming along
fast and should have had big
year. But we've still got pretty
fair outfield with Bob Johnson.
Dee Miles and Mike Kreevich
and this young fellow Crash
Davis, is good looking second
baseman."
Kreevich, obtained in a mid
winter trade from the Chicago
White Sox, is one of Simmons
"ifs," along with first baseman
Dick ST e b ert and the clubs
pitching.
"Siebert,' declared AL, sis
great" He's much moderated
first baseman who fields bril-
liantly and hits hard, too"
BRIGHT MOUND PROSPECTS
AS for the AS pitching, Sim
mons tabled the prospe
mighty bright"
He predicted big things for
Phil Marchildon, the young Ca
madam who won IL games for
the AS as a freshman last year.
"He was a little wild and lack
ed experience, but he learned a
lot last year and ought to win
Is games for us this season." Al
declared, Jack Knott should be
good for IL to Is wins, too"
He spoke highly of Jack Hal
lett, big Highlander who came
TO the AS in the Kreevich deal.
He also said Russ Wolff. a e.
year-old recruit from Williams
port, Fred Caliguiri and Dick
Fowler, a trio of rookie right
handlers, look like pitc h err S
who'll make the grade this sea-
son."

NEW YORK, Feb. 9-(R)-
Cornelius Warmerdam, who tells
the school children of Piedmont,
Calf, never to tell lie, proved
to the $4,000 fans at the Mill

he practises what he teaches.
Two weeks ago he promised
that if the pole vault runway

was stretcheI that distance-and
Warmerdam showed his appreci-
alton by going 3/8 inch above
the promised height.
1t was the Is time Warmer
dam had zoomed over the Is
foot mark and the first time he
had turned the trick indoors. He
is the only person to have ac-
complished it, indoors or out.
His achievement was one of
the two world indoor marks es-
tablished. Charles Had sof Mich

:07.2 while winning his semi
final heat of the 60-yard high
hurdles. Norwood Ewell of Penn
