With "Maranville and John Evers out of the frame at different times the Braves have been happy to have around so versatile a young utility player as Johnny Rawlines. Rawlings first subbed for Evers and when Maranville was injured he went oven to short and filled in beautifully.. Though not yet a Maranville, Rawlins is a wonder as an infield utility man. Tickets

"Dutch" Ruether, the recruit utility player with the Chicago Cubs, is regarded now as one of the most versatile, players to break into thi jame since George Sisler. Ruether is not only a pinch hitter and all round utility player of ail sorts of class but he is a first late pitcher and may be used occasionally by Manager Fred Mitchell in that ca pacity, WONDERS By H. C. HAMILTON (United Press Staff Correspondent.) NEW YORK, June 1!. The unbreakable heart of Ivan Olson is cerrjins him to new hf ighrs of glory. His courageous ball plajinp. his fast thufking braiu, and the pure forte of his irril are winning: back for him his old plsee as shortstop for the Brooklyn National league team. Bunny Fabrlque. hailed as a wonfler the man who would put the Dodgers in the running again is holding flown a bench position. Mis fielding, sensational when the season opened. has turned out lately to be nothing more than ordinary; his hitting, prominent In the early days of the campaign, has fallen oft until it resembles a pitcher's batting average. Olson was stationed on the bench when the Brooklyn started on tn march through tho season. Occasionally he filled in as a pinch hitter or runner, and occasionally hu got into the lineup for a short time. His main usefulness, however, was coaching. Olson occupied one coacher's box and Wiibcrt Robinson the other. .Olson was game. He didn't blink when the news came to him that he w.is to be used only &3 a substitute. He merely set bis teeth and stu k to.it. Olson is back there now. He's rlaying better ball than' he did last summer, but he still needs 'improvement to be called on a par with otliar National league shortstops. His hitting, always timely, is about the sam. But the qubk brain of Ivan, his nerve on bases anrf in the field has inspired other members of the club. Since Olson's return i to the lineup they have been winning, j Olson never has been a star. Verve and brains have held him in the Na tional league. Brooklyn fans have picked him out as a special target for their gibes. It hasn't affected Olson. His heart is Iron. He's good for at least the rest of the present season if his fielding only holds up to its present gait. E. (Special to Tub Times.) EAST CHICAGO. IXD. June 14.
