late. The little Italian, however, leaned
on one of Erickson's offerings and the
pellet went in a line straight for the
left-center field fence. Swain was after
1t like deer. and as the ball was going
over his head Charlie stuck up his gloved
hand and nailed II. Then followed one of
these moments that go toward making
baseball the greatest of all games. Every
man, woman, and child in the stands
simply roared themselves hoarse, and
the popular hero of the hour was Charlie
swain. 1t was a grand catch. and one
that would make Jimmy McAleer, of the
Washington Senators tear his hair had
he seen the play.
Sporting Editor Murphy, of the Phila-
delphia Times, comes across with the
following: Connie Mack pulled off a wise
little stunt in selling "Blunderbuss' Bill
Hogan to the Browns. The price is said
to be 5000. but l think they forgot to put
period somewhere in those figures. Per-
sonally don't think Hedges paid a nickel
over $500 for Hogan. but II SO the
Browns got burnt just about $500.
This would not be surprising, as Hedges
appears to fall for most anything.
Sheldon Lejune, the new Brooklyn out
fielder, who is at last in shape to play,
is probably the hard luck man Of base
ball.
Lejune. who was the leading hitter in
the Central League last summer, has had
enough trouble in the last year to turn
a mans hair gray.
In that time he has lost his only child
through death. His young wife has been
i'll almost a year. He was in an accident
which broke two ribs and his nose.
Much Of the money he had saved was
swept away through fire and his wife s
illness. Then to cap the climax. just be-
fore the season opened he was in an au-
tomobile accident and received a
wrenched shoulder. which kept him out
OF the spring practice and prevented him
from playing until last week
Lejune is the youngster who won the
ball-throwing contest at Cincinnati two
years ago. and almost broke the world s
record. II is said that his arm has been
affected since the recent accident.
This lad had the center field position
on the Dodgers cinched until he was in
jured. He has at last earned the posi-
tion. and all of the Philly players are
pulling for his success.
Harry Welchonce, of the Phillies. and
a great pal of Lejune's. says that he was
practicing in Brooklyn when he ought
to have been in a hospital. Harry asked

Uncle Jerry Cloar will open a restaurant
at the former stand Of the Blue Goose
on Washington avenue. This is a good
location. and as Uncle Jerry is a widely
popular citizen. bis sign is sure to at
tract notice.
There is one crowd Of boys around
town to whom the sight Of Uncle Jerry
in the white apron Of the dining room
proprietor will be very familiar. That
is, the boys who boarded at Alexander
Hall (now the remodeled residence Of
y aud aud Mrs. Uuiiy McRee) during the
reign OF Uncle Jerry and Aunt Ann
CIoar in that High School stronghold.
There would be a football rush for
ham and eggs at Uncle Jerry's if all
these boys" Of his were but here now.
There's not one among them that will
ever forget the times Uncle Jerry has
supplied them things to eat against
school orders, overlooking windows
smashed by balls, hasty table manners,
pillow and watermelon fights, broken
furniture and gates left open for COWS
to stroll through and eat all Aunt Ann s
flowers.
These boys were terrible. Some OF
them were-let me see-Dick Honey
cult, Jack Morgan, Carl and Shots
Key, Ben WEIGH, Earl Lightfoot, Wal
ter Walhan (the mike Corners" OF
baseball fame), George Kinkle, Paul
Erwin, Grover Wilson and old Hob
bleglossy" They we're awful examples
to live in house with, but Uncle Jerry
and Aunt Ann didn't think so, and you
wouldn't have thought so either if you
could have seen them the morning they
lined up to tell their kind hosts good
bye, each boy with face shining with
soap and gratitude, his hair sleeked
down nicely and his fight scar decorated
with brand new courtplaster for the oc-
casion. But they didn't tell Uncle Jerry
goodbye forever, for some of them will
be found at meal time in Cloar & Son s
restaurant on Washington avenue.
