CLEVELAND IN TOP FORM NOW Yank* ami Other Trams % ill Have to Slay in llifili to Keep Indian* Out of 192 1 World Series. H> JOHN II. FOSTER 1924. h Th? Ad vane* Lakeland. Fla., April 3. ? Trls Speaker's Cleveland Indians are on their way home today, the b?*st trained of all the well-trained clubs in the American League. Look out for Ohio's representation in the junior circuit. The are more dan gerous than they were'last year. It is the en me-hark of the pitchers, more than anything else, that gives pennant hopes to the In dians this year, though tin* return of George Hums to the Cleveland ?.m1 also has at marked effect on the club. The- Cleveland* are the "liest looking American League team th?*1 writer has seen, with the exception of the world champion Yankees. 1 he writer did not see much of the Yankees in action, hut as none of them has aged materially over the winter, it was not necessary to se< much of them to judge how they foot up. The Cleveland team isn't appreciably older either, and there are the pitcher* and Hums to b?* added to the credit column. As for the pitchers: l.'hle, that kid who is so big that he spreads shade around him like an oak tree, seems to Tie In as good form as he was last year. Morton is coming back, lie has been reported coming back before, but this time, Trls speaker says It's true. Coveleskle. I having disposed of the ailments which disturbed his mental poise last year. Is hack in form, and Sec-1 retary Mi'XIcholls ia betting he will I win as many games as any pitcher in the b ague. Kd wards. the big left bonder. is pitching' good enough baseball to justify the pains Cleve land has taken with him. Shaute Is better than he has ever been, and looks as if he was in the winning di vision ut last. If these men come through Cleveland has a pitching' Ktaff all right. Then there is old Sherry Smith. ?J?i? i* likely to get at 'cm this year, and there is Metvier and a kid named I.evse.*, i are sticking around and getting plenty of work. George llurns in certainly an im provvuient at first over either Guisto or Hrower. When Ilurn.; played for Cleveland in the world series against Brooklyn, his work was about as clean cut as any first baseman ever showed in a similar series. No one cactly fathomed th ? reason why Cleveland let him go after that exhibition. It may be that Cleveland was all-fired sorry after it happened. For the moment it seemed that the team needed strengthening elsewhere, but Burns' loss at first offset any gain the team made otherwise. Anyhow, he's back, and every man of the team is glad, including Bums. An old sour mush man on another major league club said Speaker hadn't any catchers because he let Steve O'N'eil go. Hasn't, eh? Myatt and Sewell seem to throw Vm out pretty well.'and Al Wallers will tear arcun 1 behind the bat if they wl!i -J-t Itiin. Muddy Uii< I got away from Now York and (IfVt lopcd into one of the best catchers in huseball. If Walters Is given a chance It may be that he will do the same thing., lie was right on top of Kuel last year, and above Perkins of the Athletics. Lutzke. third baseman. Burns, first baseman and Stephenson, sec ond baseman, are the biggest living sen en on the infield in baseball. I.ittle Joe Sewell got so mad because the six-foot athletes peeked over his head in fun that the has threatened to buy a pair of high-heeled Texas boots and play in them. Still, Joe has something coming to him. be cause his batting average is higher than the six-footers*. Th?* outfield of the Cleveland field hits nothing but fences. Any The Apothecary Shop PHONK 400 A Good Drug Store ground with shost fences would run j up a hie lumber bill unless the splintered limbers could be gold Cor match sticks. When all Cleveland's .3?? hitters let go at once down here, the battery encamin-d at Plant City, miles away, used to telephone around the country asking where tlie enemy had last been seen. And DOW that they are gone, the lake land residents have ceased to peer, into the heavens for signs of the' thunderstorms the Indians' bats made them think were blowing u,?. The Yanks and all the rest of the in will have to stay in high when the season starts If they want to keep Cleveland out of the world series.
