VIM CAMPBELL is TOO FAST
Ran Himself Off Plttsburg Team by
His Ea9erness to Capture Files

Vim Campbell, who was traded by
the Pirates to Boston for Mike Dom

ion Of Mordecai Brown.
Campbell has speed, lots Of speed.
In the outfield his speed was q men

get rid Of the youngster for steady,
experienced Mike Donlin. At bat
CampbelPs speed, according to Brown,
was also detriment. The moment
he. faced the pitcher he was, In his
mind, starting for first. He never put
his whole thought on hitting the bail,
but was thinking Of his start. AS q
result he never truly hit up to his
possibilities, and for all he Is younger
than Donlin, was Of far less use than
the ex-Giant is expected to be.
