From Press Box(Continued From First Page.)and fire than you'll find in the entire rosters of many clubs.Virgil Davis, who rod'4 the apple for .349 last year, isn't as smart as Jimmy Wilson, but you don’t have to be smart when you hit like that. The Cards are uell off for catching so long as Virge keeps his waistline in order. And the pitching should give them another leg on the pennant if all goes well.The nice thing about the Cardinal pitching staff Is its smoke. Curves are very well in their way. and so '//y/s , ' are floaters and /y//''/,s screw balls and '//// '//s freak deliveries. /'//' ' but the fast one ,still is the pitchers most valuable friend. The lively- ball maymake some dif-ference. but notmuch. So Jong as Carleton and H a 11 a h a n and the two Deans * can burn them over, the Cardinals will be in the money.The staff probably is the best in the league, though there is much to be said for Bill Terry’s bunch. Hub-bell is tops. After him you must rate Dean. Carleton. Hallahan and possibly Dean. jr. Not even Schumacher. the Giants’ second ace. is up to that mob at Its best. Hallahan shouldbe better than last year and so should his southpaw assistants. Willie Walker and Jim Mooney.In the present market the Cards area 5 or 6 to 1 shot. That's a good price. More than one student of the nattohal game probably will advise a little bet on the Cards to win that flag again.(Copyright. 1034. br the North American NewDaoer Alliance. Inc.)
