Youngster Shows That He Is

By FRANK W. ROSToCK.

CLEVELAND, June Every losing
streak has its compensation. When

WAYS and hits the league bottom. op-
portunities are created that would not

their worth. 1t has always been thus
in baseball history, and always Will be.
When adversely insisted on walking

recent Eastern Invasion. smiling Johnny
Bassler. a lad of nineteen. was given
his opportunity. He had been waiting
for tn. chance. and when opportunity
beckoned. donned the backstop's srmor
and rushed into the fray.
Johnny made good. He caught we'll,
showed he was not a weakling with the
bat, and used his head like veteran.
The weight Of the responsibility sud
denly placed on his shoulders failed 10
stagser him.
Bassler has demonstrated that he is
the coming backstop Of the American
LEAGUE. Nothing but an injury can
prevent him from developing INTO
