Talking It Over BY lOE WILLIAMS

ST. PETERSBURG. Fla.. March 22.—There Rtill is some question as to what the Brooklyns should be called this season. They used to be known as the Robins but Wilbert Robinson is no longer with the team. They were called the Robins after Robbie. A Brooklyn fan is a rabid soul no matter where you And him. Geographical frontiers in no way affect his flaming emotions. The Brooklyns lost their fifth game of the spring season Monday. It was a particularly disheartening defeat. Thev were shut out bv the Boston Braves, who are in the Drocess of demonstrating that thev can be worse in March than tnev are in Julv. In case vou didn't know, everybody is kicking them around down here Well, anvwav. after the shut out. a Irrge red-faced gent got up out of a box and came over 'o the nress stand. "If vou fellows are still trvtng to dope out a name for the Brooklyns I can help you." he raged. "Call ’em the Bums." I am happv to report that this suggestion did not go over so well with the industrious voung men in the press stand. Indeed. I do not believe thev even heard It At. the moment It was offered, half of the voung men werd debating the respective merits of the Culbertson-Lenz bridge systems and the other half were deploring the unkempt condition of Florida’s nutting greens. As for vour correspondent, he was wondering who the snappy loking blonde sitting back of first base was and where she came from Possibly she was hitch-hiking to Miami. Apparently there Is a law against anv voung people visiting St. Petersburg. Thev even take Jack Quinn for a bov scout down here. and. as everybody knows. Ruth carried off first honors at a baby show a year ago. 000 STILL, and never the less. I am not in favor of calling the Brooklyns “bums.” After all, these spring games don’t count in the standings. Very likely the trouble lies in the abrupt change in management. The set-up is so completely different than it was in the past that it is difficult to effect a speedy readjustment. You can’t take a bunch of Ed Wynns and change them over into Walter Hampdens over night. Heretofore, the Brooklyns have been supreme Individualists. The club motto has hern: "Every man for hisself.” Under the new regime the scheme is to create a machlne-like organization with each unit fitting smoothly and inconspicuously Into a general performance of efficiency. It. takes time to bring this about. For Instance, some of the bovs haven’t vet accustomed themselves to retiring before four in the morning. Ultimately, no doubt, everything will work out for the best. Max Carev is a capable baseball man. In manv respects, he probably is a much better manager than Robbie. Before the season is over he will have, either a very fine team or a verv had team. It Is futile to trv to estimate the team s prospects at this time. Carev mav lead the league and again he mav trail It. A great, t'eal depends on what success he has with Its scheme of reorganization and how the Lhletez react to It. 000 HE unveiled his regular lineup for the first time since the ramp opened Monday. Only Bissonette at first was missing. Bissonette is temporarily in the garage for pverhauling, but he ought to be all right for the opening of the season. In Bissonette’s place was a young man from Hartford, Howell, formerly an outfielder. I am told he is not being seriously considered in the present scheme of things. Tonv Cuccinello was at second, making his dehut as a Brooklyn player. Wright was at short and Joe Stripp at third. This was Stripp's first appearance at third, the position he will plav in Flatbush. since he came from Cincinnati, along with Cuccinello Both Stripn and Cuccinello went httless but thev handled themselves competently in the field. Thev will do all right in the field any dav and I don't think vou will have to worry about their hitting either. ... Carev started what will be his regular outfield, too with O'Doul In left. Wilson In center, and Fredericks In right. O’Doul lost one ball in the high winds and let another get away from him. a performance which caused some embittered person to comment that "O'Doul already was in mid-season form." . , The winds didn’t seem to bother Wilson. He didn’t have a great deal to do but there was a touch of thoroughness to his work. Old Hack is a much better fielder than most people think, anyhow. If he doesn’t crack up altogether under the Carev system of discipline he will come on to be the best outfielder on the team.

Hen Infielder Tries Hurling Rh Times Special NEW ORLEANS, La., March 22 Ralph Wincgarner hopes to be one of the leading pitchers in the American Association this year. When he reported to the Cleveland Indians’ spring training camp here this spring, he was a third baseman. But Manager Roger Peckinpaugh looked up the averages, noted the Kansan had batted .229 in the. Texas League last season, watched him zip the ball around in practice, and told him he was going to be a pitcher. He worked three brilliant innings for the Toledo Mud Hens, Cleveland farm, in a practice tilt here recently. Steve O’Neill, the former big league backstop, caught Winegarner and the new Hen coach still is raving. O’Neill, who should know something about pitchers, declares that Winegarner is one of the greatest prospects he ever saw'. His fast ball and curve fool the batters and O’Neil is teaching him a change of pace. JONES IS SUSPENDED By United Press BOSTON.

Gehrig

The Tribe pilot intimated that this roster more than likely will be the team that will represent the Hoosiers when they trot out on the field April 12 tq battle the Minneapolis Millers in the American Association opening day attraction. The starting pitcher may not be the same, he said, but off hand McCann stated he believed the other positions would be filled as he plans to send against the world champions Wednesday. Ernie Wingard, lanky southpaw, will open on the Tribe firing line in the third battle of spring with the Mound City luminaries. He has been showing splendid form and probably will be worked five innings and be followed by Johnny Cooney, another lefty. Cooney has not delivered up to expectations on the 1 slab so far, but is being figured as a stater and will be pointed accordingly. Control has bothered him and

wool striving to get down to weight. Ray White, a promising but slow running rookie, has filled in at short field in previous tilts in Florida. Manager Emmet McCann has delayed his appearance at first base in order to give a thorough tryout to young Ed Lowell, but as the Florida end of the training season nears .a close, the Tribe pilot believes it is time for him to place himself at the initial corner in at least part of all remaining contests. Ilcving Starts Drills Joe Heving, righthanded flinger, the last of the holdouts, participated in both workouts Monday and the former New York Giant advised Manager McCann that he will hustle to round into early form. He accepted terms, the club officials announced, and was permitted to practice. But it seems the big hurler is hesitating about attaching his name to the salary document. He was under orders, however, to remain away from Sarasota if he did not mean to accept the Indianapolis offer and it is presumed the wage controversy is ended. Heving said he had regained five pounds of the thirteen he lost during his winter’s illness and that his physician told him he would be back up around 170 within a short time. Joe stated he felt his health slipping last summer. A tonsil operation eventually checked his reduction in weight and the big Kentuckian is confident he will battle his way back to the majors, while pastiming for Indianapolis. Burnell Works Hard The veteran Bill Burwell took the mound for a stretch of pitching Monday and was enthusiastic about his progress. He was late in joining the squad owing to salary difficulties, but has lost no time in catching up and said today that the second week of April will find him ready to go the route.
