That's not a new deck the
Detroit Tigers ere playing with
this year but H sure got a lot
of shuffling over the winter.
After two big trades toe
Tigers will begin the 1*04
season — they hope •— with a
tightened infield, a new-look
outfield, a refurbished pitching
staff and youth and vigor
back of the plate.
The Tigers did some wheel-
ing and dealing with Kansas
City of the American League
and Philadelphia of the Na-
tional League. They sent pow-
erful outfielder Roeky Cola-
vita Mid pitcher Bob Anderson
to Kansas City for second
basemen Jerry Lump* and
pitchers Ed Rakow and Dave
Wickersham.
Then they exchanged pitch-
er Jim Banning and catcher
Gus Triandos for outfielder
Don Demo ter and pitcher Jade
Hamilton of toe Phils.
The Tigers estimate that
Lumpe will bolster a shaky in-
field which, in turn, will give
too pitchers a lift They fig-
ure that they may have ac-
quired a trifle mote pitching
depth as a result of the trades
And ifchey aca luMlny Da*
meter will be a more useful
ball player than Colavito.
Manager Charlie Drees sn
probably will start the season
With this infield: None Cash
at find, Lumpe at second, Dick
McAuliffe at abort and Don
Wort at third.
Cash has never recaptured
the batting form which earned
toe American League title for
him three yewra ago. ' A lot . of
people doubt that he over will.
But he can hit the long boll
and do it oftea enough to pay
Ms way.
Lumpe ia an accomplished
second baseman and sturdy
enough at the plate. MeAuHffe
la not quite All-Star material
at short but he’s not bad eith-
er and the theory ia that
Lumps will help.
West is a first-class fielder
end manager Dressen insists
that Don has a potential of 20
home runs tola year.
With Triandos gone, fouitg
Bin 'ftauhaa baa tha first
string job behind the plate.
Dreamt thinks tost Freehan
may come on strong this year.
Mike Roarke is toe number
two mask end mitt operator.
A change in too outfield wUl
move Bill Bruton from center
fiohl bo feit with the much,
younger Demeter taking over
to center, Bruton may not
have toft field alt to himself.
It will depend on his kitting
but he may platoon with Wil-
ls Horton.
Demeter slugs the ball pret-
ty well and while he will nev-
er win any prizes far outfield
finesse he will catch anything
he can reach. The pride of the
Tigers, of course, is At Kaline,
a brilliant right fielder and al-
ways a threat for toe league
batting tide.
That leaves toe pitching
whore the Tigers used to look
so good, ft was only a couple
of years ago that they had a
big three made up of Frank
Lary, Jim Banning and Don
Mossi which seemed as good
as any trio of pitchers In tbs
game. •• •
But Mossi was sold to the
White Sox this spring and Bun-
spring i
ning urns dealt to toe Phillies.
That. leaves Lary, a sore-arm
suffered from the last couple
of yearn but striving with
might and main to make a
comeback this spring.
Frank reports that the shoul-
der injury which has hobbled
him for a couple of years is all
bettor. He baa looked good to
exhibition games and has
shown fine control which
would aaem to indicate no mus-
cle pull of any kind However,
exhibition games are a long
way from toe reel thing.
Thu Lary ef a few years ago
—Yankee-kHter without a peer

strong contender. " ' -
If Larry's arm acts up again
the Tigers probably will lack
that groat a—ntial for a pen-
nant contender, the Mg pitch-
er.
Hank Aguirre is skillful and
may be the beat the Tigers
have. Phil Regan is a journey-
man Hurler. Rakow end Wick-
et-team, acquired from Kansas
City, may do better with a

Another three athletes are,

Crack Record
Sulphur S p r i ngs freshmen
continued their assault on
school records Monday in a
dual mdet with Commerce on
tho East Texas State track.
Eddie McNiel and Joel Shef-

tain’s school record in the
shot put as the frosh won the
dual, 80-18. Commerce athletes
used superior depth to win the
eighth grade match, 63-45, and
the seventh grade competition,
66-43.
Sheffield was the first to
hit the shot mark as he tossed
the 8-pound ball 40 feet, 5
inches, br e a k i n g Brittain's
1062 record of 48-7 Vi - But
then McNiel pushed the iron
ball 51-8 for another record.
The ninth grade also set a re-
cord in the 1320-yard relay,
a seldom - run event.
Ste'fe King, Steve Peugh,

Ronnie Charles and McNiel
combined to run the three-lap
race in 2. :43.0, clipping 1.1
seconds off the record set last
year by a foursome of Peugh,
Charles, McNiel and Sheffield.
The freshmen won all 11
events contested in the dual
Monday. A foursome of Vic
Brittain, Peugh, Chartes and
McNiel led off with a victory
in the 440-relay, winning in
47.8, just three - tenths off
the school mark.
Brittain was a double win-
ner, taking both the 60 and
100-yard hurdle events.

grade action was a blistering
58.1 clocking by Mike Martin
