I'VE had young fellow last fall,
he remarked, who had seen the big

but in some way the youngster got
the idea that Johnson was Bot
Groom.
"He watched Johnson pitch the first
inning. and then, turning to CraW-
ford, he said
lis Johnson much faster than this
fellow?
Sam caught the idea and replied ::
"Oh, yes. This fellow has some
speed but there isn't anything on his
fast one
The kid trotted up to the plate the
first time up and cracked out a hit.
The second time UP he drove out an
other hit Then he learned that he
was batting against Johnson. and the
last time up he looked foolish trying
