The (levelnnd cast-off and former

found for the other side or the mid

Such a. one appears to have or
rived or nearly so, at least, in the per
son of “little Boone"
Peckinpsugh believes he could play
as well at second as at short with
very little practice. indeed, as he
points out, he did his very best work
with Cleveland when filling the shoes
of the mighty Napoleon balms. Un-
til a year ago second base had been
Peck's‘ most regular position. He he

ager insisted upon playing hlnl regu‘

has paid every bit as much attention
to the little Boone. who is for from
being so little as Muisel. at that. To
date the veteran, Roy .ilnrtzcll. seems
to have the call on second base.
There are few better spring players
than the old war horse who is so ver-
satile at all infield and outfield places.
Yet Hnrtzell cannot be reckoned upon
for regular service. He cannot stand

few counts in the major league so
tar as utility'eiiiciency is concerned
Chance may be grooming him for sec-
ond base, but in the hope only at hav-
ing him there temporarily until a bet~
