Pirates Try To R011

g lVith Cylinder Missing

-' By JUDSON BAILEY Associated Press Sport: Writer BROOKLYN, May 13 (APh-The

Pittsburgh Pirates are trying to roll

up hill in the National League with

one cylinder missing. The phan- tom piston is a certain Eugene

Francis (Huck) Geary, who has

become known as the myth from

Minnea lis.

The iriites gave up two good players. Stu Martin and Arne An- derson to get Geary out of the American Association in the middle of last summer and since then he has played 10 games-nine at in- tervals last autumn and one this spring, But Frank Frisch. the old Fordham Flash who manages the Pirates, says Geary still is his reg- ular shortstop.

"Geary is a strange cnsc." FTlSCh‘

said. "but he has shown me enough to know that he is a good player

our infield will be fixed."

This may be true, but Frlsch ad- mitted rueiully that he had no idea when Geary would he able to

ay.

The 26-year-old infielder was spiked by Eddie Stanky of the Cubs in the opening game of the season at Chicago and has been limping around ever since. t summer Geary thought he had stomach ulcers, but they turned out to be imaginary. There was nothing im- aginary about his injury in the opener. His log swelled painfully and hurt the Pirates Just as much as it did Gcury. One reason that it made the club sore was that the Pittsburgh problem child was not in shnpe. During the winter he had insisted that he would remain out of baseball to keep a defence llob, but he changed his mind in

I: i: true that today manufacture of razor ' blades for civilian use is regulated. No loyal Canadian would have it otherwise. And this company gladly complies with the program established by the Wartime Prices and Trade Board Administrator to conserve steel and labor.

The quota m up by the Administrator was arrived u after careful study, and the available supply of razor blades is in- tended to take care of civilian need: without working a hardship on anyone."
