With the addition of another new
catcher. a Tom Hackett, whose ability
rs a receiver is lauded to the skies,
Harry Wolverton's staff of catehers on
the New York American League Club
is beginning to shape up as one of the
best in the American League. Hackett
has been hitherto obscured by the fact
that he jumped from the Oakland team
two years ago and has been under the
ban of organized baseball.
When Hackett threw aside all con-
ventions to accept an outlaw offer sew
eral big league clubs had been dicker-
ing for his services. Wolverton, when
he found out definitely that Big Ed
Sweeney is done with baseball, man
aged to pull wires that ended in the
new catcher's reinstatement.
Hackett Is one of the many stars who
got a start in the st. Louis Trolley
League. With his brother, sunny

the Cardinals, the new Yank formed a
