fine stroke OF business when he landed

MOTORCYCLE TOURS POPULAR.

Two Best Catchers.
Street viii help Sweeney every bit
as much as Sweeney viii benefit Street
They are two Of the finest catchers in
the American league Sweeney was
the class OF the circuit in 1910 There
was no better catcher anywhere in
sos than Street rheumatism put him
out Of commission in 1910. Last year
ne was almost himself again. Now he
Is travelling as well as at any time IN
his career And with Sweeney at his
coat tails all the time he'll have to keep
on travling.
Sweeney and Street should easily
prove the greatest catching cOmbina-
ton in the big show Each is a strap
ping big fellow, capable of catching
practically the entire schedule OF
games If fortunate enough to escape
injury Street can hold any pitcher.
For years he teamed with Walter
Of the age. He has also had lots of
experience with spitban receiving.
Sweeney is the only catcher in the
country who can properly handle Rus
sell Ford's freak delivery The pair
worked together since they were Kids
in the bushes" They are so familiar
with each other that often this star
battery works without signs.
The season promises to develop a
great fight in friendly rivalry between
Street and Sweeney and the harder
they tussle the better off win they and
the club be. Sweeney had one slight
advantage in the fact that he viii be
assigned with Russell Ford, the pitch
ing star. Yet Street has a quslifica-
ton that offsets this. at least
