here under a broiling tropical aim the St Louis Cardinals are using rose-colored sun glasses The rank and file of the players think going to gallop through the National League to their second pennant In three years They expect a more or less hot fight from the champion Chicago Cubs and the New York Giants but they believe they have the power and the pitchers to come through DEANS MISSING At this writing neither of the Dean brothers around whom Manager Frankie Mach expects to build tils pitching staff have come Into the fold but nobody Is worrying about that Their signing is regarded as a certainty Although he feels he has the best starting team the Cardinals have presented in a good many seasons FHbcIi says he must develop infield and outfield reserve strength if the Red Birds are to be a real contender FRISCH STARTS 17TII SEASON like a football coach with a whale of a first team but nothing to back It up the old Fordham flash beginning his seventeenth season as a big league regular said today may be lucky enough to go through without serious Injuries but like to take the chance Right now haven't the faintest Idea who well use as reserves either In the Infield outfield or behind the plate1 With one or two minor changes the 1936 Cardinals will be the same swashbuckling crew that won the 1934 pennant and finished a nose behind the Cubs last year The hard-hitting Rip Collins will guard first base Manager Frisch and Xeo Durocher the best in the majors will take care of second and short Charley Gelbert the who came back" will succeed Pepper Martin at the hot corner Gelbert Is playing with all his old time skill after a long lay-off due to a gunshot wound MEDWICK IN LEFT The slugging Joe Med wick will patrol left Terry Moore called by Frisch one of the fastest men In the National League Is slated for center and the redoubtable Martin will go back to his old post In right With Bill Delancey first string catcher Ill In Arizona and lost to the dub foe the reason most of the backstopping will fall on the broad shoulders of Virgil Davis Brusle Ogroddowskl who batted 298 for Columbus In the American Association last season has the Inside track for the second string job Frisch believes Roy Parmelee giant right-hander who came to the Cards In a trade with the Giants during the winter will add a tower of strength to the hurling corps Parmelee Is ranked as the No 3 starting pitcher right behind the two Deans WALKER AMONG STARTERS Bill Walker who won 13 and lost eight last season win be the fourth starter and the fifth will come from Hallahan Ed Heusser or Mike Ryba the one-man ball team from Columbus Ryba won 30 and lost eight last year In Johnny Mize the big first sack-er from Rochester as good as new aftdr a serious operation the Cards have a first class replacement for Rip Collins but what Frisch Is looking for is a man who can fill the shoes of Burgess Whitehead the second sacker who went to the Giants In the Parmelee trade going to be the regular sec ond said Frisch I'm not going to play 154 games got to find somebody who can step In there and give me a ROOKIES LOOK GOOD There are three candidates Stuart Martin from Asheville In the Piedmont League Lyle Judy from Spring-Held Mb and Red Ankenman a diminutive shortstop from Houston He is the only one of the trio with class A experience The outfield problem so acute Three big rangy colts are the talk of the camp and one and maybe two of them are sure to stick They are Lynn King from Houston who set a new Texas League record for put-outs and assists and Edwin Morgan and
