The main American league scramble will be to keep somewhere In sight of the Yankees. Any ball club that has DLMaggio, Gordon and Keller doesn't have to bother much. Bat there can be a big scramble for second and third plaees. "We might find out, for one example, whether the loss of Ted Williams hurts the Red Sox more than Feller's absence hurts Cleveland. The Yankees suffer no such destruction. That's the way it is in life. Thebreaks usually swing to the top, not towards the bottom." In the National Casey looked for an even tighter race in the National league than 1941 had to show. "The Dodgers and Cardinals will be about as strong as they were a year ago. I believe the Reds can be better, with the pitching they are sure to get. Just a few more base hits can make this club a contender tough 1 back of Walters, J i Riddle, Derringer and Vander Meer.

"We have some pretty fair kids ' coming along if they are not taken away in the draft. This is where the scramble comes in. No one can say now how many more players will have to go by midsummer. And you'll find few ball players turned down physically. They are a pretty healthy lot. "One big trouble with baseball," Casey said, "is the little so many players seem to learn. They are usually big, fast and strong, and they appear to think that's all there la needed to make a ball player. "Oh, here and there you find a rookie who Is keen to learn his trade, to improve himself. But you don't And this sort often. There are too many who either know it all or are too lasy to work at it in the hard way. "Good baseball is a smart man's game. This is why many an will still hang on this season, and more kids will fall back. It should be a big year for the veterans. I could use a fellow in Los Angeles by the name of Jigger Statz plaints are fearful lest the latter soon will be forgotten altogether. The emphasis upon modern players is not difficult to understand. The big league writers who cast the ballots aren't familiar with the ball players of the 1900-1- 0 era. They prefer to evaluate the relative greatness of players whom they have seen in action. They do not always pay attention to the fact that there were of good ball players a century ago. The present system can be Improved on. With one exception, all 11 men elected to the Hall of Fame by baseball writers were active around 1910 or thereafter. The period from 1900 to 1910 certainly is not without its share of stars. It was then that the American league was born. For instance, there was Fred Clark, one of the National league's e outfielders with the Pirates. He always draws some votes but never enough. Babe Adams, also a Pirate, has plenty of supporters, few of whom have anything to say about the' nominations. It's a pretty safe bet that among those soon to be mentioned for lasting greatness are Bill Lange.of the old Cubs, Wild Bill Donovan of the Tigers, Bob Grove of the A'a and Red Sox, Ed Walsh of the White Sox, Johnny Evers of the Cubs, Nap Rucker, Zach Wheat and Dazzy Vance of the Dodgers and Harry Heilman of the Tigers. Catchers Cochrane and Hartnett may make futhe grade in the ture, together with Bill Dickey, when the latter is eligible. Walsh is a likely candidate for elevation. He is gradually gaining votes each time a ballot is required. It is obvious that the real oldsters of the game are being ignored to a large extent. Just what will be done to remedy the situation isn't clear. A suggestion already has been made that each year's voting be restricted to a definite era perhaps 1900 to 1910, and 1910 to 1920, etc. Such a move would do much to clear up the situation. It doesn't supply all the answers, but at least it would be a start in the right direc- ' I'll ;'. J H A ' v U If: . Wonite Stanz I've often been on the road and found myself without a 1 home.

Made of a stunning plaid, it has large patch pockets for convenience as well as "looks." The back is belted in smart fashion. These lovely plaids come in blue and red, beige and brown, and also in beige, brown and green. Soldier blue is a far flung color this season. You will see it in hats, gloves, and, of course, in suits. The fitted reefer shown to the left in the above picture is of soldier blue. Smooth shoulders, comfortably cut armholes, loose sleeves and a high notched collar are smart style points. The novelty buttons are made of plastic overlaid with a gold design. A chic dressmaker suit of all wool in a delectable pastel shade is shown in the center of the group pictured above. This suit has the set-i- n belt which distinguishes the majority of smart suits this spring. Note the detachable bengaline collar. Youthful collars of this type are predominate in casual neckwear fashions. A suit of this type invites all sorts of pretty accessories. It can be worn all day long, its "dressiness" depending on the accessories you wear. The blouse may be simple and casual, of the costume type, or of one of the lingerie types.

Just wait and seel The use of soft styling, as well as the emphasis on daring use of color, was brought out forcefully at the style preview recently presented to capacity audiences at the Merchandise Mart in Chicago. Designers have apparently taken great care to stay away from anything "mannish," for women will be more eager than ever, this spring, to look their feminine best. Dressmaker styles feature softly draped lines without sacrificing any of their tailored simplicity.
