from injuries received in an auto

able to play ball again. The current
issue OF the Sporting News carries
the following report of his illness
and his record with the Augusta
club, which will be interesting to
his friends here:
"At first it was thought Merritt
could not live longer than a few
weeks, but n surgeon performed an
operation which disclosed that the
ball players spinal cord had not
been broken. as had been feared,
but was impinged between two bones
of the fractured back. The cord was
put in place, his back set. and the
whole incased in a plaster cast The
operation is said to have been one of
the most difficult and unprecedented
in the history of surgery at Green
vile, where the operation was per-
formed. It Is stated now that Mer-
rift has a good chance to recover,
but whether he viii be able TO play
ball again is a question
