SARASOTA. Fla, Mar. H.
The Senators lingering dream
that Bob Wiesler will develop
as a sharp pitcher is taking on
the proportions of a nightmare
It's getting to the point where
they'll have to give up on him,
as the Yankees did before them,
unless he shows marked i'm
provement.
Wiesler is getting older but
there's no sign of progress
When he started in the
Yankees chain. there were
visions of a Standout left
handler. He accumulated 24O
strikeouts in 1876 innings at In
dependence in 1949. He famed
277 in 1873 innings at Joplin the
following season.
There was wildness to ac-
company those strikeouts, but
frequently that fault was cured
The Yankees tried for years,
then showed him of on the
Senators, who still were hope
full. So we're some of his former
New York teammates, Hank
Bauer and Irv Noren among
them. The believed steady
pitching would eliminate Bob's
erratic tendencies and trans
form him into a winner.
Fails as Regular
But in those days Bob was
busting the ball over the plate
with steam. He got his chance
to pitch regularly with Wash
ington in 1856 under Chuck
Dresser. Bob started games
through the year, but at the
end the record read 3-12.
Last season Wiesler was sent
to Richmond, managed by Ed
Lopat. 1t was believed that

Following tonight's game the
