The California eleven will meet the Rams here Oct. 18. Here are two examples. Eddie Dyer uf the Cardinals has over 20 able pitchers in his line-up but for the first two weeks of exhibition play he only had three who were able to work in winning form. The others had sore arms or sore backs and were of little help.

On another occa.sion the Tigers came to St. Petersburg to play the Yankees with their entire outfield too lame and stiff to Wakefield, McCosky and Mullin. Managers who have had from 15 to 20 pitchers on the scene have been scrambling around to find as many as three who were ready to work tliree or four innings.

MAJOR LEAGUE baseball has gone far overboard on its spring and exhibition scheciule.

It has overdone its list of exhibition games in a way that you might call incredibly stupid. Practically every manager and every trainer I have talked to agrees with this line of thought. Take the case of the Yankees best team in baseball today. They have played in the tropic heat of Panama. They have been in Florida for several weeks.

They are ready to open the tomorrow. They could and should head north after leaving Florida. In the number springs been watching baseball, I have never before seen an outfield and an infield as for advanced as the Yankees are now. This goes for hitting, fielding, throwing and running.

Currently Kurland is in third place at 571, but at the terrific clip he has traveled in the last nine games, he appears certain to cross the 600-point mark, thus easily passing Bill Hall, of Marshall, now second at 572, and Morgenthaler.
