Bucky Harris Says Senators Much Improved GREENWOOD, S*. C. UP — Bucky Harris terms Xie 1953 team the best since he returned to Washing|bn‘for his third hitch as manager in hut he isn’t, predidting shy pehnant. • “The league is so evenly balanced the way I see it,” he said, “that w< can go up or we can go down.” He is hopeful it will be up; but he lacks reserve strength, is weak in the catching department and his pitching is spread;; pretty thin. J’But there isn’t a club in the league that hasn’t got a weakness so there’s hope for all of us," Harris claimed. “We’re going tb be tough, but after all it’s a long jump from fifth'to first place and I’ve been in the game too long tp forecast anything like that.” His strong’pbints are one-of the best "fielding outfields in the league and a good, sound inner defense. He hopes to make up in speed _and defense for what he lacks in the power hitting departement. 1; K ’ p si 4 n Jackie Jensen. Jim Busby arTd, Gil Coan, Harris believes he has as fine a defensive outfield i|init there is around today. ' But Busby ha A jiever showed a liking for major' le<Jgue pitching-+he hit <»n!y .244 last year—and Coan fell off to a miserable, .205. Harris isn’t worried about his infield with Mickey Verdon at Cirst, Wayne Terwilliger at second. Pete* Runnels at' short* and liddie Yost at third. Terwilliger Won the second base job when rookie Leroy pretzel, had to be < sent back down to the minors to recover fully from thfe broken leg lie suffered last season. Two rookies. Bob dldis, who hit .227 at Chattancjoga and Les Peden, a .280 hitter at Los Angeles, are pressing Mickey Grasso for the\ No. 1 catching post. .
