tomorrow against the beaneaters.
Higgins said that Mcmillan would
be benched for a while, but that the
former Rochester third baseman would
probably get into the game against left
handed pitching. Witt was purchased
from Connie Mack's Athletics, where
he had pastured himself since he
broke into the big leagues in 1915.
Higgins did not give out the pur-
chase price, but it is not thought that
the money involved would rival the
amount in the Babe Ruth or Heinie
Groh cases, as waivers were asked on
Witt during the off season. This was
set down as camouflage mostly, be-
cause the new Yankee outfielder hit
.3l5 in 1874 games last year and was
also a capable flychaser
Witt adds another member to the
Yankee infield-outfield combinations,
for like Mcmillan and Fewster, he
the inner works.
Whitley Witt is twenty years
old, 5 feet inches in height and
weighs 155 pounds. He throws with his
right hand, but bats from the port
side Of the plate. He was born in
Winchendon, Mass, on September 28
1898, and first played baseball with the
Goddard Seminary nine.
Witt broke in with the Athletics in
1915 as a shortstop, but after two years
in the infeld he was shifted to the
with the change and he batted over 300
in 1920 and 1921.

BOY KILLED OLD HUNDRED.

On Wednesday, March 20,
Neal Kollock, an 18-year-old
colored boy, was killed at Old
Hundred, in Scotland county, as
he was trying to board a moving
freight train. A freight was
doing some shifting at the sta
ton where some men were UNI
loading fertilizer; the boy was
not working. He tried to jump
on the shifting train, but his
foot slipped and he was thrown
under. His body was literally
cut in two. His left arm and
shoulder were cut off, his heart
severed and thrown some dis
lance and he was otherwise bat
tered. The railroad authorities
disclaimed responsibility, and re-
fused to bury the body, the boy
having no parents or kindred.
He was buried at the county's
expense.

probably will we get such an OPP
portunity of purchasing such blue
blood at such reasonable prices.
Hoard's Dairyman says that
now is the time of all times to
lay the foundation of a pure bred
herd. Prices are the lowest now,
they tell us, that the will ever be
again.
MIR. Diggs has made a liberal
offer indeed to Jersey breeders
of this county; namely: to sell
all pure bred offspring at the an.
nual sales in the future, for those
who have such stock for sale
This gives our small breeders q
fine opportunity to pay for their
