CLOSE SCRUTINY OF FIVE YOUNGSTERS

Five young pitchers who flashed last season will be watched during the coming campaign. Guy Morton, with a weak club, had a stellar first year; Urban Faber’s “smoke” kept American league batters stepping,-and Ernie Shore of the Red Sox was good in season and in the world’s series. In the National two scintillating gems arose to fame. Mamaux came into his own and was the big find of the year. Leon Meadows of the Cardinals loomed up like another Doak.
