Everything Is slttln* pretty at St
Joseph, Tulsa, Wichita anil Oklnhoms
t’lly, where the four northern r Hi be,
Omaha, Denver, l.lnroln and Ik'*
Moines pry tbe lid off tbe season fol
lowing the proper ceremonies that go
with the opening of any baseball
season.
Ths clubs have been strengthened
and have put in many hard weeks of
practicing under the hot southern
aun until the managers have pro
nounced everything In tip top shape
for the first game.
New Karps In Lineups.
Many new faces will grace the
lineups today. Stars of last year
have graduated, just like the boy or
girl In school graduates from one
grade to another when he or she has
done good work. The league as a
whole has Just enough young blood
sprinkled among the old to make the
race Interesting from the harrier un
til the field comes down the stretch
next September.
Picking the pennant winner In the
league this season Is harder than
usual because most of the clubs have
changed their rosters so completely.
Not a club on the wheel will present
the same lineup as last year. Wlch
Ha. Denver, Des Moines and St. Jos
eph have practically new teams.
Lincoln, a new city In the loop, will
have largely a new ball club, and
umaha, Tulsa and Oklahoma City
while retaining many of last year n
men. have enough new ones to make
their probable strength uncertain.
Omaha, Denver and St. Joseph
have new managers. Art Griggs suc
ceeds Ed Konetchy a* boss of the
Buffaloes. Joe Berger, formerly of
Wichita, is manager of the Denver
Bears, while Joe Mathes Is part own
er and manager of St. Joseph. Jack
Lellvelt still bOHSPS Tulsa and Fred
Loderus will hold the reigns at Okla
homa City. Johnny Corridrn Is back
as manager of the Des Motnes club.
Howard Wakefield will manage the
Lincoln club, formerly the Siouk
City team.
Buffaloes Will Bid for Klag
Omaha and Des Moines In the
northern section of the circuit arid
Tulsa and Oklahoma City In the south
sppear to be the strongest teams.
The Buffaloes are due to make a
strong bid for the pennant. The last
time Omaha got a glimpse of the flag
was In 191* when ‘‘Pa1’ Rourke, then
owner of the team, steered his club
to a pennant.
With Art Griggs at first; Thomp
son on second; O'Neill at short and
Jimmy Wilcox at third, the Buffaloes
have an Infield that compares with
say In the league. The outfield of
ttaggen, Honowltx, Brown, Robinson
and I^vellle is one slugging outfield
that Is sure to make Itself felt.
The catching staff Isn't any too
strong, with Wilder and Helmera In
the fold, but It may become stronger
as the season continues.
Harry Las and Rill Bailey, south
paws, were with the club lest season.
Nick Cullop, pitcher-outfielder. Is also
with ths team thla year. Thle trio
eomposea ths main attack of the i
pitching ataff. Along with these
veterans, Burch has Schermanske,
formerly of Washington, and Stanton
*nd Loupal of ths Nebraska State j
eagus. i
Omaha, opens today ,at St. Joseph.
The club doesn't come home until
April 29, but plans are being made
to make the opening dav in Omaha
one of the #est In history1.
