realizing the warmest hopes of his
many admirers. The kid is sock

Keith May Enter
Eddie Keith, mainstay of the
Book of Washington team in the
Recreation League, may also be
among the participants. Eddie,
holder Of the District high game
mark, 1876, is setting a speedy
pace in several circuits. In the
Saturday night league he has a
122 average, a 119 in the Colum-
bia Heights wheel and 118 in the
Recreation league.
Karl Gochenour, Columbia's
sparkling rookie in the District
League, has developed the knack
for shooting his best scores at
critical moments. He is another
chap who rates a try in the Dixie.
Whip" Litchfield, Charlie
hard,t, Fireman" Jack
Mooney, Chief" Lovett, Charlie
Barnard, Bill Clampitt, Dave
Legum, Louie Chipouras, are vet
eran campaigners who boast bril-

leagues.
Just how many of these will
be among the starters Saturday
remains to be seen, but all be-
long in an event such as the
Dixie and all would have real
chance.

YEAR
!. SEEN FOR
HURLER
BY GARRETT WATERS
Tommy Thomas, Griff pitcher

by OAHhEII WATERS
Tommy Thomas, Griff pitcher,
Is in town!
This statement, announcement,
or what-have.you, may not mean
great deal to the majority of
baseball fans at this time of the
year, but to President Clark Grit
fifth, Trainer Mike Martin, and
other Griffs interested, it means
plenty, as Thomas is not in
town Just for a pleasure trip.
Tommy, it seems, is making
frequent visits out to the club
house at Griffith Stadium for
treatments on his arm-given by
Trainer Mike Martin, as only the
genial Mike can give 'em. The
former White Sox pitcher has
been jumping over here from Bal
timore, for nearly a week for
these treatments. Here's some
reasons.
Thomas arm did not exactly
come around as straight as it
should have after the operation
on it at Chicago early in October.
But all it needs is the treatments,
and then the old "soup bone" will
be ready to fling 'em, once Feb
ruary rolls around and the Biloxi
training season gets under way.
Operation Success
Asked if Thomas operation at
Chicago could be called success,
Owner Griff had this to say to-.
day:
"Oh yes, he came out of it in
good shape and he'll be all
right by the time we go to
Biloxi. You see, his operation
was in the elbow where some
growth had to be taken out.
Naturally it has left his arm
. little stiff and bent. But
Mike Martins treatments will
straighten it out and loosen all
those muscles again"
Thomas has been bothered with
this arm of his for the past two
or three years, but never could
figure out just what was wrong.
After joining the Griffs last sum-
mer, and after hearing how Sam
West, outfielder, was cured by
an operation, his first thought
was to go to the same doctor,
same hospital. same city, ETC., for
cure. -....
During the early days of Octo-
Der the work was done and now
Tommy is looking towards an
unusually successful future.
The veteran pitched some ex-
cellent ball for the Griffs in 1882.
He hurt his arm for good last
August against the Yanks in
thrilling / to ten inning game
against Charlie Ruffing and the
Yanks. After this particular con-
test, Thomas was of no use to
his team for the remainder of
the season.
See Good Year Ahead
Prexy Griff, Manager Cronin
and all others interested in the
Grlffmen, see banner year
ahead of Thomas in 1888 with
his arm in shape again. They
can't see otherwise, particularly
when the hurler turned in such
excellent efforts with his arm
only in fair working order last
season.
It remains to be seen whether
Thomas will be able to win con.
sistently again. but from all indi.
cations, and from the spirit which
Thomas holds himself about the
situation, something should be
heard from that right arm of
his even though the breaks may
not enable him to hang up a Bob
Grove victory total.

the Legion's sudden Intervention in
