-Four years ago, after his season with
the Brooklyns, Billy Hart. the popular
twirler of the ST. Louis Browns, and
who Is spending the winter at his home
at Bond Hill, thought his arm was
gone. He had pitched some good ball
for the Brooklyns that year S92-but
in one of them had the misfortune to
dislocate one Of the muscles OF his
pitching arm. This threw him out OF
his engagement. Hart returned to this
city and went to work in the Times
Star" composing room as a type-set-
ter, he being an expert at that work.
At first his arm felt sore after he had
put in day at the monotonous task OF
carrying type from the case to the
stick" Gradually this soreness wore
off. and before the summer Of 1893 was
over his pitching arm felt as good as
ever That fall Manager Watkins came
TO Cincinnati and induced Hart TO sign
contract with the Sioux City team.
Hart had some misgiyings about his
arm, but before the season of 1894 was
far advanced Hart demonstrated that
his arm was as good as ever. And he
attributes the recovery of his pitching
power to the monotonous and incessant
motion of his arm when setting and
distributing type.
