GEORGE A FIXTURE
SouthpaW TWirler Sure of His
Job With Browns This Year.
STRUGGLETO REACH FRONT
Ranks With the Best Of Big List OF
Pitchers to Be Tried Out in
Major Leagues.
STRUGGLED REACH FRONT

ST. LOUIS. Mo-, February 4.-lncluded
in the list of twenty-five pitchers whom
Manager Wallace of the Browns Will
choose his twirling staff this season, are
oniy three southpaws, While Manager
Bresnahan has four sidewheelers in his
collection of fourteen beavers.
Some are veterans. while the majority
are newcomers OF the recruits none
seems to have such an excellent chance
to succeed as Lefty" George, whom
President Hedges of the Browns obtained
by draft from the Indianapolis American
Association team.
Georges experience in the 1910 season
IS an interesting one. He started out
with the York Tri-State League team.
He prospered there and attracted the
attention Of other magnates. Among
them was President NJ. Stanley Robson
of the Cardinals. He bid for George,
hut Owner Watkins of the Indianapolis
club beat I'm to the player. There was
a fight, but the national commission de-
cided in favor Of the minor league mag
nate.
1t is said that George cost Watkins
something like $500 or $1,000. George
served only four weeks with the Indian
apoliy club, when the first drafting time
came. About nine major league CLUBS
put in drafts for the southpaw. among
them were those of the st. Louis Amerl-
cans and st. Louis Nationals.
1t developed that after the club own
ers' names were placed in the hat by
Chairman Hermann of the national COM
mission, President Robson happened to
be seated nearest to Hermann. the iat,
ter said: STANLEY. you draw this, time.
Robson reached into the hat and pulled 20
out the slip. Unfolding it. he read to
himself. well, what is it?' asked Herr
mann.
..St. Louis" There was a. pause, and
then Americans" replied Robson. So
it must be admitted that Robson Ger
tanly figured in deal of tough luck IN
his efforts, to land George. Watkins, too,
was unfortunate. Although he paid be-
tween $3.50 and $4,000 for the pitcher,
he had to release him, according to base
ball law, to Hedges for 81 800. So Georges
services cost Watkins between $1,000 and
$1,000 for four weeks.
George comes to the big league highly
recommended Although serving but
short time in the American Association
last season. he was considered the best
southpaw In that league.
