Jhe 1933 Qfomce BASEBALL PROSPECTS 'VarsiTy Baseball S The copy dead-line draws near, iT is hard To predicT whaT kind oT a season The 'VarsiTy nine will have: The chief deTecT oT The Team is a lack oT good piTchers. alThough Tive prospecTive hurlers have Turned ouT. Five leTTermen have reTurned: Fuld, l-lemmerdinger, Orsenigo, Urie, and Vollmer. Fuld, Orsenigo and Urie will deTiniTely sTarT aT shorT-sTop. TirsT base, and leTT Tield, respecTively. Vollmer may be used aT any oT Three posiTions, and l-lemmerdinger will Till one oT The inTield posTs. The Tive Twirlers are Bohan, O'Brien, Prudden, SylvesTer,and Vollmer. Ump Tewhill raTes The TirsT Two above The resT, alThough he said There were no real piTchers. AT The oTher end OT The baTTery Pew and Phil BeaTman will work: Pew has a beTTer peg, has had more experience, and should be The TirsT-sTring caTcher. Orsenigo, a powerTul hiTTer and excellenT Tielder, is deTiniTely slaTed Tor TirsT base. AT second WeiskopT is a promising candidaTe, buT may lose The iob unless his hiTTing improves. Jimmy Fuld, whose playing has been remarkable during The TirsT Tew weeks oT pracTice, is a sure-Tire choice Tor shorT-sTop. IT he is unable To play because oT conTlicTing Tennis maTches, l-lemmerdinger will geT The call. Joe Vollmer, one oT The Team's sTrongesT baTTers, will be posTed aT Third when he does noT piTch or play in The ouTTield. IT is possible ThaT boTh Fuld and Vollmer will be absenT aT The same Time, because oT an eligibiliTy rule aPiecTing The laTTer. ln ThaT case George Edie, a good hiTTer and The only capable subsTiTuTe iniielder, will play Third, wiTh l-lemmerdinger aT shorT-sTop and WeiskopT aT second. Urie is a sure ouTTield choice. l-le will play The sun-Tield. SylvesTer and O'Brien, boTh Trying ouT Tor piTching iobs, will paTrol The gardens when noT on The mound. Possible ouTTield regulars are Goldman, Louis Jacobson, and Hervey. Limp will probably Tind many combinaTions ouT oT The maTerial which Turned ouT1 buT The lack oT subsTiTuTes is evidenT. WiTh eleven games on The schedule, There will be a large burden on The shoulders of The mediocre piTching sTaTT, and Ump sTaTed ThaT he wouldn'T predicT a very good season. -QISOT,
