That leaves Bill Tully, originally counted on as a first base prospect, in the outfield patrol with Torbie Macdonald and Gene Lovett in the other lead roles. The catching is uncertain as yet, but there is enough material there in Bill Parsons, Charley Spreyer, and Bob Regan to silence most doubts. They are all rather inexperienced, but good enough prospects to let Stahl shift Fulton last year's ranking backstop, out to third...

For Allied commerce leans heavily on neutral shipping, and the Norwegian-flag Skandinavia (which will run from the Gulf to South America) will free replacements for some of the 100,000 tons of tankers the Germans have sunk to date. Probable explanation: confabs between Texas Corp.'s Board Chairman "Cap" Torkild Rieber and the German Admiralty...
