The following is what the Atlanta
Constitution OF Atlanta, Ca. has TO
say about him:
Hard conscientious efforts always
produce results This has never been
better demonstrated than in the case
of Harry Chapman. the Crackers pep
perry baCkstop. who on his work dur
ing the past month has taken the
front rank among the backstops OF
the league.
When Chapman first reported to the
Atlanta club he looked good. then he
seemed TO get into a rut. and did not
20 as strong as some expected he
would. But warming the bench in
the ma jors for months then being
beset with illness and injuries, are not
conducive TO good ball playing
But Harry was not long in "arriv-
ing. With each succeeding day. ne
began TO improve. His hitting picked
up his throwing began to be deadly
and he worked his pitchers with 4
thoroughness that brought results
In months time, Chapman i'm
proved 100 per cent In his present
form. he is easily the peer of any
backstop in the league. and We include
Street. Schmidt. Mayer and Gibson in
the bunch.
He hits better day in and day out and
is on a par with Gibson OF Nashville
when it comes to producing the old
bases waiting TO be driven home.
Chapman is sure to receive a trial
in the big tent Bobby Gilks, the
Cleveland scout is wild about Chap
man. Umpire Bill Hart is authority
for the statement that Chapman is
catching and hitting better than any
backstep in the league
In Chapman. Atlanta has a catcher
who in his present process of develop
ment is every bit as good. if not better.

His Great Record.
Since July IA. Chapman has caught
30 games for the Crackers. We are
going to give you some figures. so
that YOU can see just what big inn
provement he has made in his work.
In the 80 games. Cha pman has
been to the plate SO times. Thirty
times he has hit safely, giving him a
batting average of 1928 for that Pc
riod. which is better that any back
stop in the league can show for the
same length of time
In the 81 games. Chapman has
had 154 chances. He handled 153
without an error He had H. put
outs and Al assists. His one error
was made one day last week at Ponce
de Leon, after he had gone % con-
secutive games without making a sin
gle bObble-
In the 50 games. IS men made at

and only the slowness of the pitcher
in getting the ball to Chapman made
the three clean steals possible.
Seeing him in action every day and
with the above figures to back US up.
our contention is
That Harry Chapman is the peer OF
the Southern League backstops.
