OF the early weeks, but until he was
forced out of the lineup a couple of
weeks ago he was hitting well.
His average TO date Is 1871,
achieved with 81 hits in 293
times at bat. His hitting has
been timely, many of the blows
being for extra bases.
Clifford was purchased by the
Reds upon the recommendation Of
Mickey Shader, Cincinnati scout.
Shader has always liked Clifford's
catching. and when the Irish boy
started clouting the ball this year
he watched the receiver closely.
SCOUTS VISIT
Shader made several trips to Ia
coma to watch Clifford in action.
The last time he was here he was
accompanied by Professor Chap
man, the head scout of the Reds.
Then came negotiations for the
purchase of the player which Gull
minated when confirmation was
received Monday afternoon.
Clifford is 81 years old, his next
birthday will be September 20. He
is native of Oakland, Calf,
where he still makes his home.

The deal for Clifford was COM
pleted Monday afternoon while
the Tiger receiver was still out of
the game with an injured leg.
Tacoma will receive cash and
two players in return for the classy
catcher. The players will be de-
cided upon next spring.
Sale of Clifford was somewhat
of a bonanza for the Tigers for
he cost them nothing. He was
given to Tacoma as a part of the
Isekite deal.
The consideration was that Cliff
ford would come to Tacoma as part
payment for Isekite if the pitcher
stayed with San Francisco.
1t was further stipulated that
Clifford would become Ia
coma's property in return for
the look at the pitcher If Isekite
wasn't retained.
Clifford gets his big chance after
five years of organized baseball.
A high school star in Oakland,
Clifford was picked up by the Seals
before he reached the age of Is.
He was with the Seals through
out the 1885 campaign and in 1886
he was farmed out to Muskogee in
the Western association.
WITH SEALS
Then he was with the Seals again
for season. In 1887 he was farm
ed out to Vancouver in the Western
International league.
Clifford was the class of catchers
in this league last year, but his
hitting kept him from jumping to
the Coast league. Four years with
out being able to hit more than
$50 may have made the Seals de-
eide he would never make the
grade.
But Clifford started hitting as
soon as he donned a Tacoma uni
form. For many weeks he led the
W. l. league brigade this year.
The strenuous work behind the
plate-sometimes for weeks with
out relief-told on his batting. He
could not maintain the .375 pace
