who has been purchased from the
GAINESVILLE club in the Central League.
The management has had Huston in
view for the last two years, he having
expressed his desire to come here when
he was with the Lowell Mass, club
in 1911
Huston is not an especially heavy
hitter, having an average of 243 for last
year, but has had lots of tricks of
the game. However, .243 is not a bad
average to make with club finishing
eleventh in a twelve-cIub league and
considering the fact that he drew so
passes from opposing pitchers.
