Miraculous Play on Ball That
Had garmarko Of Safe hit.

A baseball fan doesn't have to be
very old to recall an agile outHelder
named Dummy Hoy, who turned
triples and hOme.runs into outs for q
number Of years while wearing the
livery Of the Washington, Cincinnati
and Louisville teams Of the National
League.
At the start Of the American league
he was with the White Sox short
time, but he was then old, us baseball

The Times.Star Of Cincinnati an.
swers the question In an editorial,
which is well worth reprinting:
"Much has been written how en-.
countering faded flower In an old

lions, how o forgotten perfume will
conjure up q vision Of someone Of
years ago. how strain Of music Vi.
brates with memory deep In the re.
cesses Of the mind. But things other
than flowers, perfumes and music can
resuscltate other days. The name Of
IN almost forgotten ball player will
do 1t.
"The other day we read Of william
Hoy, farmer near Mount Healthy.
attending funeral services and translat.
Ing a hymn for his fellow deaf mutes.
1t was Dummy Hoy, former National
league ball player. The mention Of
his name brought back the memory Of
probably the greatest catch ever made
ut the Cincinnati park. years ago,
when the wooden grandstand was stu.
ated In the present position Of the
right.field bleachers. Hoy was play.

was the final inning Of tie game that
had been dragged on into twilight.
With two out and two on bases Red
batsinan hit the ball fur over Hoy's
head. Somehow In the gathering dusk
Hoy accomplished the miraculous.
With his exceedingly alert eyes he had
OWNED the course Of the ball, aad
with whirllng soasersault succeeded
In getting one hand on 1t.

Cincinnati park for years, and was
the cause Of Hoy's release being pur-
chased the next season from Washing.
ton. But now the park has been
turned about. and new faces and new
traditions have succeeded those good
old days. And Hoy, the man, who
never "kicked' himself out Of game
for obvious reasons. had about passed
from local recollection. But 1t was q
great catch. And even ut this remote
day Il serves to bring back some OF
the youthful enthusiasm Of one Of III
behOlders."
