Tiger RECRUIT
HAS GREAT ARM

The Tigers have a recruit catcher
who has promise. He is Ray Spencer,
last year with Raleigh He Joined
the Tigers during the fag.end of 1921
and is back this spring.
Spencer has one of the finest throw
ing arms 4ver displayed on south
ern ball lot. He can throw.
However, It takes several years to
develop a catcher and since Detroit
has satisfactory trio in Johnny Bas-
sier, Larry Woodall and Clyde Man
ion, it is not probable that Spencer
will be retained this season.
