and the St. Louis Cardinals could
very well nudge their way <right
into the .thick of the scrambling.
There’s been i o hint of deterior-
ation In the Yanks. Swinging
through Texas League territory
the Yanks clicked off seven
straight and until today had a rec-
ord of 17 out of 23 in exhibition
games. For some reason the mi-
nor leaguers have been pouring
southpaws at the Yanks on every
front,* causing Joe McCarthy to
• use an all-right handed hitting
. outfield of Powell, DiMaggio and
Gallaghcr. KeTrei-,Selkirk and '
Henrich have been sitting on the
bench. Thjt gives a tipoff on how
strong the Yanks are when they
can carry two major league-out-
fields. Any one of those six out-
fielders could hang on with any
other club in the league.
Tf McCarthy has any worries,
it’s .hik pitching staff. The Lou
Gehrig scare temporarily has
blown over, and whether the iron
horse falls apart slowly tViis sea-
son or aTT in’ one big explosion
’ isn’t concerning McCarthy at the.
moment. But Lefty Gomez has'
come up with a sore arm, and Wes
Ferrell’s comeback is temporarily
at a standstill. Oral Hildebrand
has moved up as the No. 3 pitch-
er. behind Ruffing and Pearson.
With Gomez ailing the Yanks are
without a southpaw.
The Boston Red Sox. who were
shaping up as the team to chal-
lenge" the Yanks when they left
Florida, haven’t looked so good on
their current tour with the Cincin-
nati Rods. The Detroit Tigers
have started to come, however^
and if Schoolboy Rowe and Tom-
my Bridges continue to look good
that will give the Bengals a big
lift. In addition Barney McCos-
key, rookie outfielder who was
slated to go to Toledo, has become
the newest enaction in the out-
field. His hitting is likely to win
him the center field job opening
day. Cleveland has been a big
disappointment, and • Oscar Vitt
faces a real tssk in whipping the
Indians into line. The Tribe is
loaded down with too mahy tem-
peramental ball players.
The good things circulating
about the Cincinnati Reds con-
tinue to prove they have some ba-
sis of fart. ■ Whifey Moore’s 6-
inning, 4-hit exhibition against
the Red Sox yesterday is a por-
tent of a hig season for this
youngster who was knocking at
the door last year.
Carl Hubbell’s condition con-
tinues to he a source of worry to
Bill Terry. Without Hubbell the
Giants are going to be short of
pitching. But his shoulder nil-
ment does n't appear to be seri-
ous. and he mgy come around
slowly. The Giants are farther
along in conditioning than any
other National League club and
are likely to get the jump on the
field against the weaker eastern
clubs when the'season opens.

an injured ankle, the Cubs’ superb
infield defense of other years will
be missing. Steva Mesner, a con-
verted third baseman, has been
flashy birf erratic at short. One
bright spot in the Cubs’ work has
been the pitching of Gene Lillard,
another converted- third baseman,
who seems .leaded for a starting
job.
Pittsburgh hasn’t been too im-
pressive in training, and the im-
pression is going around that the
Pirates shot their bolt last year
when they blew the pennant.
Young clubs are unpredictable but
the Cardinals have come up with
some bright newcomers who may
lift the club ~ut of sixth place.

’ BY GEORGE KIRKSEY
s4Tnited Press Staff
NEW YORK (UP)—As the baseball caravan heads
north after more than five weeks of conditioning in the south
and west, the two big major league developments today ap-
peared to be:
1. The Yanks are still the class<j> ’
of the American League.
2. The National League
stage another of its cut-throat
thrillers.
There’s nothing new about those
two situations except maybe the
makeup of the clubs who’ll battle
for the National League flag. |
