THE LINEUP By CHARLES KLASEK It was with great pleasure that we read Walt Dobbins' column in a recent issue of the Lincoln Journal discussing the baseball t:i. nifWc Hncphall ability and his rise through the minor league farm system have too long been neg lected by the press. ' ' . i Dick has been playing: professional baseball for three years in the St. Louis Cardinal farm system. His play in the Class B Piedmont league with Lynchburg last year warranted his trial with the Omaha Cardinals this summer. Dick has won a starting berth in right field for the Cards with his flash of batting power. Dick is a native Xincolnite and by rights should have been signed by the Philadelphia scouts. However, the case of Dick Cordell illustrates the fact that Philadelphia scouts as well as many other major league scouts fail to give prospective rookies a fair and true trial. Dick was cast off as a prospect by Phila delphia scouts before they observed his true worth. Now Dick has a great future with the Cardinal organization. It Is our feeling that the entire weakness of many farm system is their failure to give prospective rookies true tests. DI is a prize example and then there are such men as Bob piers and i i i i. .irnaj w it p.ipveland Indians and Brooklyn Dodgers. Compare the league standings of Cleveland and Brooklyn to that or rmiaaeipnia ana you u to the Athletics low standings In any league a poor scouting starr.
