Charley Miller a Real Catcher;
Started Baseball in "Billtown"

turn out good men in Williamsport
Miller began his baseball career on
town lots. All stars do that. His first
engagement that brought him a
monthly stipend was in 1907. when he
accepted position with Scotdale, in
the Western Pennsylvania League. A
Cincinnati scout picked him out and
he was drafted by the Reds. Cincin-
natl sent Miller to New Bedford, Mass.
in the New England League.
Wilkes-Ba picked Miller and he
played with the Barons for a season,
when the st. Louis Nationals took him
by draft. Having a surplus of catch
ers when the season started, Miller
was sent back to Wilkes Barre. He
next appeared with Binghamton and
later with montgomery (Alao and At
lanta. Brooklyn took Miller, but At
lanta bought him back. From Atlanta
Miller went to Louisville in 1911, and
from there the popular catcher came
to Harrisburg. He was a big factor
in winning the pennant for the SEN
ators in 1912. Pittsburgh took Miller
from Harrisburg and sent him to
st. Paul, Mimi. This year he is back
again in Harrisburg.
Miller has a business interest that
keeps him in the East. Being in
minor company enables him to look
after his business and at the same
time gives him an opportunity to keen
IN working form. He is still in line
for faster company and would be COB
bled up in quick time If he wanted to
get away.
Miller is player who is In the game
with a conscience. In every game he
does his very best and he listens to
wiser heads. Harrisburg is blessed
with a number of men of this caliber
and 1t means much in a pennant chase,
Up TO last wednesday Miller was bat
ting at .359 clip. He was in az

His ability to hit makes Charley
Miller the most valuable backstop Har-
r. burg has ever had.
Catcher Charles Miller is clean
cut player. He has not missed a game
back of the bat since he landed in
Harrisburg. Accidents or sickness
alone will keep him out. His return
to Harrisburg was another good move
in the effort to bring the second PEN
nant to Harrisburg. Charley Miller is
one of the boys picked by local fans to
do a big part in this seasons race.
Miller is a young man. He was born
April IA, 1887, at Williamsport. Com
