Jim Vaughn Gave Smart
Answer to PLAYER Ball


Jim Vaughn, now out of the big
leagues as an outlaw, was always q
great pitcher, but seldom strong on
repartee. However, a phrase that is
now much used was really coined by
Vaughn some fifteen years ago.
At that time jim Jefries reigned su-
preme among the heavyweight pugil-
lists and Stanley Ketchel was a bear
among the middleweights Jim Vaughn
was one OF the huskiest built pitchers
that ever graced the majors Well
over six feet and weighing around POO
in condition, vaughn would command
attention anywhere.
Jim, always a quiet fellow, enjoyed
nothing more than q scufiie in the
dressing One day he and Neal
Ball, who weighed around $50, started
to fool in front of the Cleveland
bench. It ended when Vaughn picoed
Ball up bodily and seated him in the
corner Of the dugout in rather rude
manner. The easy manner in which
Vaughn handled Ball caused the latter
to remark:
IF l was as big and strong as you
I would challenge Jeffries."
"WeH YOU are just about Ketchelfs
size" replied Vaughn, "aud there IS
nothing to prevent you taking him on"
