of the left side of their infield. The recruit's name is Orr, and he's a shortstop.

That may sound strange to west side fans, who have seen Joe Tinker on the job so long that they never give a thought to his position between seasons. But, if Orr should happen to make good; If he should prove to Manager Chance that he can play shortstop well enough to be kept there as a regular.' he will- be given the berthl ; ' Meaning the bench for Joe? No, indeed. Meaning merely a shift of Mr. Tinker to the position he is most anxious to play, the position that not appears to be the only open one on the team. Tinker believes he is a good third baseman.: He has played that station and heiprefers it to his own. He has practiced there during recent years and

has looked like a wonder in the place. Undoubtedly Tinker is a great shortstop, on of the greatest. But If Chance could find a man capable of filling Joe's present shoes, he wouldn't hesitate to make the shift, provided, of course, that Zimmerman continued to hold out and Lennox failed to shine. Orr is one of the most likely young

sters In the lot. He comes from the Salt .Lake City team of the Vnion association. He was third among the

shortstops of that circuit in fielding.
