man stands close to s;X feet in height
and weighs more than lSJ pounds. He
will not join the Grifiner until the mid

need OF him here.
Down in Atlanta there are two more
southpaws who may receive trials in
Charlottesville next sp::ng. They are
Gilbert Price and George Clark. Price

such murderers as jackson, -0b0,
Baker. Collins, and Speaker hit left

orthodox deliverers. but there is vOst

When the Climbers go South TO train
next spring they should have fine

will be Johnson. Groom. Engel, Gallia,
Shaw. Ayres, and one or more yet 10

probably Price and one or two Others.
Finding good pitchers is no certain
