When George Gibson. veteran
catcher Of the Giants. Joined the local
outfit the popular belief was that his
days OF active participation in the
pastime were over. Gabby was as
plump and pleasing as Little Butter
cup He was assigned TO a nice soft
job Of training the ambitious young
pitchers because the knowledge he
had acquired through years Of bril-
liant play behind the bat for the
Pirates made him one of the best in
structors Of youthful twirIing talent
In the game.
But Gibson wasn't satisfied with the
life Of ease. So he set diligently
about the task Of shedding some Of
his superfluOus avUirdupOis and tuu-
lE mp the old right arm that turned
hack many a Veuturesome base run
rer in other days. The result was
that when Gibson reported at Marlin
last spring he looked as cOltish as the
newest recruit and performed with
I'll Of his ancient peperino.
Gibson may do the bulk OF the
etching for the Giants until Bill
Eariden removes the sprinEtime dus.
from his batting eye. Right now the
local array requires batting. and as
long as Gibson maintains his current
pace with the stick IL would be folly
TO withdraw him. Not only has Glib
son been q big factor I'm view OF his
batting. but his defensive play has
been Ear beyond the average. He
has the Suack Of handling pitchers
and he works with Schupp and
Benton particularly well.
