Shortstops on School Mines Are
Collection of Midgets This
Season.
BY BRYAN MORSE.

Some of the smallest youngsters ever
representing the schools are members
of the high school baseball mines this
season. Every team out for the title
boasts one or more midgets, and as
size counts for little in the national
pastime these lads, newcomers for the
most part. are making good with a
vengeance.
"Gooli' Gerard. veteran shortfielder
OF business, Is a small youngster who
is likely to come near leading-the bat-
ting honors this season. Gerard Is
stocky, has fine stand at the. plate,
and In eleven games has hit for an
average of better than 400. At Eastern.
Willie Thomas Is playing short and
third. Thomas was the smallest player
in scholastic basketball circles last win
Ter, and earned a great name for him
self. He is leading off for Eastern In
baseball this year, and can clout with
the best of them.
shorty" Della Vcrgne. Techs short
atop, is just what his nickname signi-
ncs. He has broken into the Tech line
UP this season, and bids fair to rank
with the. best of them. At Western
who ras made good Sinclair is playing
second, and Is Lead off man in the bat
ting list.
None of these midgets stands more
than five feet four inches in height. All
can hit well and peculiarly are play
ing either short or second. Thomas, of
Eastern, looks even smaller than he IS
because of the fact that Lanahan,
Smoot, Flahcrty, and Shields are tall,
rangH lads.
