Brooklyn Recruits Must Shine Like Florida Sun if Robins Are to Make Showing Manager Wilbert Robinson Has No Prediction to Offer for His Team—Fair Array of Pitchers Infield of 1923 Brooklyn National League Team Is Doubt* ful With Only One Veteran in Fold—Ivy Olsen on Reserve for Coming Season. By THOMAS L. CUMMISKEY. B.r Universal Service. CLEARWATER, Fla., March 21.—Wilbert Rob inson, apparently called “Uncle Robbie,” a leathery, deeply-creased faced man of around 60, is attempting to make something out of very little with the Brooklyn baseball club. hie is as patient as they come. lie is wise in the wisdom of many long, arduous cam paigns as player and mentor. He will need all he has in every way to do much with the club, from all indications. Were it not for pitchers, at which he is a wonder in develop ing, we’d speculatively cast the club into the cellar for the finish next October. He had no prediction to offer. The present situation in no way warrants it. Unless newcomers shine something after the manner of Florida sun, it may be much worse than last year when Brooklyn finished in sixth place, sixth in team hatting and fifth in fielding. The Infield is doubtful, with only one veteran. Jimmy Johnston, a' short, and three, rookies likely for thu other positions. Jacques Fournier, hard-hitting first baseman. - formerly with the Cardinals, and Andy High, who did well at third last year, are holdouts. Money, of course. Four nier wants $1,000 more than offered, and High the same amount. High has been offered $4,000 and $1,000 extra if he plays 75 games. But lie wants $5,000 flat. May Play First. Fred Schleibner, a star with Iat tie Bock, may do ns first baseman. Me has been starring with the pitchers in bringing victories to Brooklyn in exhibition games with the Braves and Senators. At second Jack Stewart from Birm ingham is trying to make the grade. Fielding Is not enough, but, hitting .s doubtful. This chap is fast afoot. He is sure to start the season. At third Bill Mullen, from Mobile, has been doing well so far. Ivy Olsen, the veteran of veterans, will be a reserve man. probably. Wal ter Iveeiey, a promising infieldcr, is off. Catching will be O. K. with DeBerry, Hungling, Taylor, and either Charley Hargreaves or Bong. Har greaves looks pretty good. Ontfield Fair. The outfield will assay fair with ('apt. Zach Wheat in left, Neis in ' enter, and Tom Griffith in right. Turner Barber, former (tub. will be substitute left fielder. Bert Griffith will be substitute right fielder. Gene Hailey, tried by the Braves and Bed Sox, may stick also. "Dutch" Beuther, who won ?.l games- last season. Burleigh Crimes, who won 18. and “Dazzy" Vance, who also took 18, all look in fine condi tion. On them “Bobbie" pins main hopes of getting somewhere. Other veterans are ('adore, Mamaux, Bong. Shrivrr and Decatur. In Georpe Smith, erstwhile Philly, Bobbie thinks lie has a pitcher wiio will win games for him. He has got Smith delivering side-arm balls in ad dition to other stuff Harry Harper, ex-Senator and Yankee, Just now is wild as a hawk, is likely to stay around, as Ruc.her is the only other lefthander. Diekerman Shows Promise. , I.eo Diekerman, six foot four, from Memphis, with a One fast bail, has been shooting over brilliant stuff in exhibition games. He is sure to be retained. Brooklyn will carry nine pitchers this season. It is a question whether Mamaux will he held.
