The Cubs are losers to the tune of
$50, 600. according to a statement made
~ Charles Weegham, owner of the
cam, when informed that his best
pitcher, one of the greatest that ever
inferred the box, had been drafted.
1t was announced recently that the
Iubs had purchased Alexander and
catcher Killifer from the Philadelphia
Nationals for a consideration of $751;
900. The purchase was hardly made
when the great twirler was drafted
and Weegham is out his money.
Grover Cleveland Alexander got into
the big league in 1911, playing with the
Philadelphia Nationals. Prior to his
entry into the majors, he worked for
the Central City team of Nebraska. In
1915 when Pat Moran s men won the
pennant in their Circuit it Was due
mainly to the work of Alexander.
The services Of the drafted pitcher
may not be entirely lost to the Cubs for
it is possible that before getting into
khaki, Alexander may twirl his team
on to few victories.
