The Topeka baseball association has
added a prize pitcher to it's staff II
Sergeant Albert Leak of the army post
at Leaven worth. He belongs in Com
pany NJ OF the Thirteenth infantry, but
will get his discharge in time to fight
for the Westerns 1911 flag.
Leak gained recognition by big
leaguers last spring when he BANKED
the Detroit Tigers 2 to 0. They went
seven innings without hit and offered
to sign him on he spot but he could
not get his discharge. He finished the
summer burning them up in the Inter
City league, pitching both in Kansas
City and Atchison. He whiffs them so
fast, say his teammates, that on dark
days the opposing batter seldom sees
the bean. He also is said to be a first
water hitter with a preference for two
and three baggers.
Added to that he is a gentleman

handsome. From the amount of rec

prove a find for Topeka. Bigger clubs
wanted him, it is said, but he wants tC
start into professional company wher,
he is safe.
President Woodward and Manager
Moore have also signed a battery from
the Rochester club in the Easter
league Rochester won the flag las
season and this battery is said to hav
been the mainstay of the bunch. Ro
Beecher is the pitcher and George Star

Carl Lundgren. was purchased fro1
the Toronto club in the Eastern leagu

their three votes, again won a victory
