GREENVILLE. Tex, Feb l6
CUP)-"Why In ready to go in
there and pitch right now" said
Monty Stratton, 81, Chicago White
Sox pitcher, who lost his right leg
two years ago
When the Sox opened spring
training at their Pasadena. Calf,
camp on March 4, Monty will have
his chance. In exhibition games,
he will try to show that a pitcher
with plenty of stuff" and lots OF
nerve can pitch winning ball in the
majors whilc using an artificial
leg
Since November 1893 when his
leg was amputated after a hunting
accident, Monty's been fighting fol
a comeback.
He now thinks he's ready.
Sure I've got a coaching con-
tract and nothing TO worry about,
he said, WORKING on the back tcncc
of the little home he bought here
last year. But it calls for only
coaching. no playing I want to
tear up that contract and pitch.
I'm in good shape. I've beer
kicking this stiff leg around in
mud and snow on rabbit hunts all
winter and I can really rely on it
now. I've done plenty Of practice
pitching and hOnFStly, boljevc !
have more stuff on tho bah than
| eyer had
OF course. there's ono biC Wor-

Bic fielding. You know those sud-

he laughed. Lefty Gomez can't
bit a lick and tho Yanks don,

worry about my batting.
