hath, not only possesses the most dead.
~ wing in the circuit, but he has
been clouting the apple at a merry
gait all season. Not only that, but Pete S
stamina and physique have enabled him
to catch all but 10 games and do it
in jain-up style. Hitting close to the
coveted 800 mark, aggressive, though
with a losing team, and successfully
catching the widest pitchers that ever
graced a Southern league club. Pete
easily earns a place in the hall of fame
Tony Brottem has for two seasons
been rated as all-Southern timber
His stickwork in the cleanup posi-
ton for the Travellers has been the
nightmare of opposing hurlers and his
shotgun throw to the keystone has
killed many a venturesome baserunner
Brottem combines experience, ability
and fighting qualities, admirable assets
for catcher. Higgins head and
Styles promising qualities make them
an ideal pair for the second team.
FIRST BASE
Bobby Grimm will get the choice of
80 per cent of Southern fans for the
initial sack assignment Grimm is the
best Businessman that has cavorted
in this league in five years, and if there
is anything he can't do well on
ball field, we have yet to see it. Full
of pep at all times, graceful as dancer
in scooping them out of the dirt and
hitting the ball around .2S5, that's
Grimm. For the second team, Ivy
Griffin wins easily, although if our
own Bernsen were a polished fielder,
he would give both these boys bat
tie. Griffin is batting .305 and gives
promise of developing into major
league star.
SECOND BASE
Stellar second basemen were as
scarce as the proverbial fowls molars
this season, but there were several
players who deserve especial mention.
A careful study of the work of each
man, however, reveals the fact that
Cotton" knapp is still the peer of
keystoners in this company. knapp
was the life of the New Orleans team,
the brains of the inner works and one
of the best pinch hitters in the league.
