Brradon and Rlrkey outwirted their baseball competitors with brains Instead of dollars. They visualized a new era for the pame by prowin? their own major leasvie ball players through the development of a chain-storp system that originated in 1922. Supported with a slim cah surplus, Breadon and Rickey realized after their first flyer in the market they could not purchase promising juveniles bv outbidding their wealthy opponents. They purchased, either complete or part interest, in 32 minor league clubs and planted their Juveniles in those fields. IT was a long, tedious task.

For a starter, It was necessary to hire men to find young talent. The Cardinals had struggled alonft with only one scout for several years the late Charley Barrett. He needed assistants and associates. The wheels hummed. Every spot in the country from upper New England to lower Florida, out to southern California and up to northwestern Washington was thoroughly covered by the Cardinals' Ivory hunters.

At one time the Cardinals' official scouting family included the following personnel, besides Barrett: Jack Rvan. Joe Mathes. Bob Finch. Wld Matthews. Marty Pur-cell.

Joe McDermott, Ray DLsch-inger, Charles Kelchner and Frank Rickey. Added to that group were dozens and dozens, perhaps hundreds, of other private baseball sleuths recommending young ball players to the St. Louis club. Teen-agers were signed, then assigned to chain-store units. nant.
