Win-happy Frisch Faces Bad Summer With Cubs
Los Angeles March 24 AP Frankie Frisch mourns defeats as he tries to lift the Chicago Cubs from the National League cellar. The Cubs, once a power, lack championship-caliber players and money for a winner. Andy Pafko is the only proven regular, with Frank Baumholtz securing right field. Key assets include Johnny Schmitz and Rob Ruehle, while Dee Fondy may open at first base. The club is likely to be streaky, struggling for pitching depth and hitting, as in 1947.
