About half the Bruins’ contests will be fought on foreign soil where they are not so efficient.’ Hence, reports from camp followers, 1933 statistics and advices from Madame Dunbar indicate that they will wind up in the same third place tjjey occupied last season. - It seems unlikely that the Cubs C3ll regain the glories of 1932 — Ivories won quite accidentally.

(2) promise of a full season from Kiki Cuvier, <3» Pat Malone's apparent comeback. <4) Babe Herman's apparent Improvement, and (51 the presence of a couple of promising rookies.

Mr. Wrigley paid the Phillies 3125.000 for Chuck, and is giving the slugger the highest salary in the league. 323,000. Cub officials and Klein are confident he will not slump from his 1933 mark of .368 simply because Wrigley fields' right wall is 40 feet farther out than that of the Phils’ park. Because of a leg injury. Cuyler appeared in only 70 games last . season. He hit .317. Kiki hopes' to go the route this year The other picket.
