and as for holding up a pitcher he
is the sensation of the league. "Shol-
ly" has also a dandy set af baseball
brains Unlike many youngsters, he
is willing to learn, which is a good
asset for those breaking into the
game.
When IL was learned that Doc
Kerr would not be with the team this

Shollenberger is now on his las
