Mccoy to strike at when everybody
Laughed to see the ball land u by the
peanut stand. The expression on
Smiths face plainly showed that it was
no joke. He had broken the bone in his
upper arm. Surgeons were on the
grounds and after putting the arm in
splints, made from pieces Of boards, he
was taken to his home where the bone
was set.rIn speaking about how it hap
pened Smith said: Il was trying to de-
liver mi of my drops and, as Ia&swunee
mysarm over, the muscles on the from,
and back of the upper arm seemed to
tie up and that was all fora second.
The next moment it seemed that some
body had hit mt on thesstop of the head
andsa thousand pins and needles were
coursins through my veins, thenI knew
that my arm9was broken" sA#
