HERE SOUGHT OUT
BYLEAGUE SCOUT

Big league baseball scouts are on
the trail OF Ernie Schafer. crack
southpaw pitcher OF the Central High
School team OF this city. Schafer has
been approached by scouts from two
major league clubs, who have been
after him for some time to take a
trial at the national game.
At present schafer is in Norfolk
working in a sporting goods store.
He is apparently satisfied with his
position and intends returning to
school next fall to graduate from high
school. Central lads elected Schafer
captain of the team for next year,
and there Is every likelihood that he
will remain to finish up his schooling.
In two years Schafer has lost but
three games. He has been generally
successful in high school ranks and
recently played amateur baseball with
the result that he earned a no-run-no-
hit game.
Besides being an exceptionally good
pitcher. Schafer is a first-rate hitter
and can play in the outfield or at first
base. He lives in Virginia, just across
the river from Washington. and play

We have not abided by the decision OF

has only August Hermann, chairman
of the National Commission, to blame.
Hermann has botched the Perry

knows this. We are prepared to show
where Hermann has made his own
rules. We are all supposed to follow
the letter and spirit of the national
agreement. Hermann has not done
this.

crack at Perry. Each one Of them
gave him the cold shoulder, and he
was left TO drop into obscurity. Not
until ] pulled him of the seat OF

to sit up and take notice.
