WHAT THEY THINK OF PEACHY GRAHAM IN BOSTON

of the terrOTS of the neighborhood,
like all American youths are, there
was an epidemic of peach stealing,
and Graham was innocently accused
by some of his frieids of being a cul-
prit, and "Peachy" was the nickname
he became known by among his young
playmates The luscious sounding
name chung TO him, only it developed
into Peaches when he grew older and
is likely to stick to him for the rest
of his days, for it seems to fit in so
well with the style of ball playing he
puts up.
1t was with the Pueblo team that
Peaches first got agoing, and the story
of how he became a major league
player is interesting and is different
than the majority of the rank and file.
He was pitching for the Pueblo
team, a punk one at that He was
such a counterfeit that the manager
of the club was quick to throw Ora
ham in as so much junk when trade
came along with Minneapolis with an
other player for a second class pitcher
named Archie Stemmell.
AS a versatile player Graham as
serted himself before he had been with
Minneapolis long. He was on the
books as a pitcher, but one day after
he had twirled a two-hit game, the
only catcher the team owned was put
out of commission and Peaches Of
fered his services, and surprised the
manager by shaping up fine behind
the bat, The following day the short

stop was laid out, and it was Peaches
again who came to the rescue and
held down the short field to perfec-
ton. And so it went. In 10 days Ora
ham had covered every position on
the field, and made a record for an all
round player that few could equal.
Graham will tell you he started pro
fessional ball playing out in the West
ern league. going through the minor
stage process of moulding, but when
he began playing he had no idea of
being a backstop; but that came tC
him in time, and once settled in the
spot he can't very we'll vacate it as he
has become too valuable in that Ioca-
ton.
He had a taste of big league ball in
1903, when he joined the Chicago
team as a pitcher, but his days were
numbered in the Windy city. as he
was not quite ripe enough to keep in
step with some of the veterans that
made up that club
1t was in 1906 that the Boston Ma
tionals secured him, to fill in as a re-
ceiving general, and there is no Gues-
ton that he has made good. and his
services are highly appreciated by all
who go to the south end grounds
Manager Fred Lake is certainly
sweet on his catcher. He says he is
one of the grandest fighters in the
game today. A player who never lets
up till the last man is out, and defeats
disturb his equilibrium more than
anything else.
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1910-07-09

The Boston American in a recent
issue had the following concerning
our own Peachy Graham, whom Rock
Island plucked out of the pastures Of
Henry county and successfully trans
planted into professional baseball:
Few ball players have had the illus
trious career on the diamond that
George Peaches Graham, the Doves
stocky backstop, can claim. Rising
from obscurity in the bush league,
Peaches has plugged along until to-
day he has the distinction of being
the leading batter on the Boston
team that hangs out at the south end
grounds.
AS a batter and a star catcher Ora
ham ranks with the best, and he has
established his popularity with the
home fans by his fast playing in
every game he shows, and it is hard
TO keep Peaches out of the game, as
he plays ball for the love of the sport
and forget5 everything else once the
bell rings ~ action.
Very rev ~ the fans who yell Go
it Peaches" NOW where the sturdy
little catcher got his sweet sounding
name, and figure that he picked it up
from somewhere on the diamond, like
most ball tossers do in the course OF
their existence, but it is different in
Graham'S case.

old, rambling around Aledo, ILL.,, one

JEFFRIES HOME; SILENT
Defeated Pugilist Goes to His Ranch
Near Los Angeles.

Near Los Angeles.
Los Angeles, July Still moody,
downcast and silent. James j. Jeffries
arrived home yesterday from his dis
astrous experience in Reno. He came
from San Francisco with his wife
and party, and, avoiding a few
friends at the depot, stepped into an
automobile and was driven to his
town house. There was no demon
stration at the station. Jeffries sent
word in advance that he would not
talk TO anyone and kept his word. ms
right eye is still badly discolored.
That the optic nerve of Jeffries'
right eye was damaged by the blow
delivered by Johnson IN the second
round at Reno was evidenced in a re-
mark by Jack Ripper, who accom-
panied the party to an interviewer.
Jeff" said Ripper, does not
know anything about the rumors of
doping that have been flying about.
He cannot see TO read yet He has
not read a word about the fight and
nobody has told him a word of all
IAat has been said"
Ripper himself scouts the tale that
Jeffries was doped. However, he says
the big fellow was not himself men
tally when he entered the ring.
Worry ruined all Jeffries'
chances" he declared. cat the last
he received hundreds of kilograms
which pleaded with him to win, say
ing he had to win, that they had
bet their all on him. This sort of
thing prayed on his mind. This dope
stuff is all rot
