J7LMER LAYDEN, professor of football at Notre Dame, known on the campus as the Thin Man, is likely to be a shadow by this fall. He is given to losing weight by the worry route when his Irish gridders are not going any too well, i'nd the task confronting him consists of replacing 18 lettermeu! The Notre Dame football army is the same throng, according to spring practice reports, but it’s no cinch to pick capable ball toters and blockers out of an inexperienced group regardless of the number on hand. Nine backfield lettcrmen have concluded their college grid careers, including the famed Bill Shakespeare and Andy Pllney, whose names appeared on several a 11-America aelections. And three first-string quarter backs are saying goodbye, Wally Fromhart, Frankie Gaul and George Mori arty. In addition to replacing his departing stars, Coach Layden will have a hole in his staff to fill. Tom Conley, end mentor, has left to take the reins at John Carroll College, Cleveland. Moreover, the Irish are slated to battle the customary strenuous schedule that call3 for a "big” game nearly every Saturday of the season, fiut leave it to Elmer. He goes best after he worries off a few pounds.
a a a To fish in 21 Minnesota lakes, one a day for three weeks, is the new type of vacation mapped out by a Chicago angler. That’s a difficult assignment, but there’s nothing too tough for a lover of bass. THE reported Chuck Klein-to-Phlladelphia deal has met another hitch. The Phillies demanded that Pitcher Tex Carlton be included along with a bundle of cash in exchange for Pitcher Curt Davis. Manager Grimm countered with a request that Outfielder Ethan Allen accompany Davis to the Cubs. And so it stands. a a a THE million dollar Boston Red Sox are enjoying what probably is the tops of aristocratic spring trainings full course meals, change of clothes twice daily, enthusiastic Boston fans of the leisure class following them around and ovations on all appearances. It may go to their heads! a a a Playing managers have hard going during batting practice during the baseball training period. Rookie huriers eager to make good bear down when the boss is up there swinging. man THE big problem in golf now is what to do about Patty Berg's skirt. She refuses to buy anew one for links wear. The Minneapolis girl golfer is superstitious. She wore che same skirt in Florida matches during the winter that she wore last summer and won’t permit it to be altered. And she has outgrown it in width and length!
Dykes Declines to Stress White Sox Pennant Talk Jimmy Isn't Kidding Himself as He Thinks of Tigers and Others; Likes Mound Staff. By United Press .... PA^ IS ’ Tex " A P ril 3.—James Joseph Dykes, manager of the Chicago White Sox. today set some sort of precedent when he predicted that his team would not win the American League pennant. Furthermore, Dykes doesn’t even think the Sox will finish in the first division. Puffing at a big, black cigar, the roly-poly manager “told” all about his team today. i m , no , t kiddil *S m yself or anybody,” Dykes said. “I don’t think we can finish better than fifth. I have a good pitching staff, I think, but
we need plenty of strengthening in the outfield. I picked the Detroit Tigers to win last year and I’m picking them again this year.
“I’d like to surprise everybody as I well as myself and finish in the first division. But I'm afraid it’s going to be pretty tough with such teams as Detroit. Cleveland, New! York and Boston ; being as strong as they are. i “Os all the rookies to report in
camp, I have picked only two as regulars. One is little Mike Kreevich, outfielder, and the other is lanky Monty Stratton, right-hand-ed pitcher. I’m going to play Kreevich in center field. Mule Haas will be in right and Rip Radcliff will play left. Bouquets for Stratton “With Zeke Bonura signed, I guess he’ll be at first. I’ll be at third with Joe Morrissey as my understudy, Tony Piet, is slated for second base and Luke Appling at short. Stratton, I think, is one of the most promising pitchers to come up in some time. “With Stratton being counted on to take his regular turn as a starting pitcher, I think I have a pretty good staff of twirlers. The other four boy? I am counting on to pitch regularly ?re Ted Lyons, Johnny Whitehead, Vernon Kennedy and Les Tietje. Speaking of pitchers, I think I have a southpaw rookie who may make the grade. He is Italo Chelini, who is only 21. He has showed plenty so far. I may decide to keep him because he is the only lefthander we have. “The catching will be handled mostly by Luke Sewell. Frank Grttbe and Mervyn Shea will fight it out for the second string backstop job. At pr *sent it looks like Grube will win out. He's in better condition this year than last when he carried too much weight. Youngster Is Comer “Frank can hit better than Shea and he most likely-will be the second string backstop. I have another catcher, a youngster named George Caithamer, who has been shotting impressively but I think he is about a year away from being a major leaguer. I’m going to send him out for another year’s experience. “I know the club can stand improvement in a few places and I'm doing my best to strengthen it. I’ve tried to buy an outfielder ’but the clubs turned me down. Not being able to make some kind of a deal, I’m Just hoping for the best.”
