I WITH ONLY 3 YEARS OFF SAND LOTS
"DOC" PROMISES TO BE PRIZE
"Doc" Watson, native of To
ledo, lust year liti-lii-i- in a class
II lca«ni>, iiroiniM-. to be the
pitching sensation or 1013. Men
>\lu>-i- livflihixnl |M'inl upon
their iiiiliiv to Judge players say
Watson will bring a bigger price
ucxt season than rittsburg paid
for Marty O'Toole.
The transition from busher to
star is frequently llKlitninK-Uke,
and Watson is the best illustra
tion in —iiilit just now.
A couple of years a«o Watson
was "discovered" by Bill Armour,
pitching for a semi-pro team in
Toledo. Armour shipped him to
I.a Orosse, Wls., where he made
good and advanced to OshkotJi.
Last year, for Osnkosb, Watson
pitched 31 games, winning 22 lor
a percentage of .709. He allow
ed 184 hits, fanned 213 batters,
walked 70 and made eight wild
pitches. He was scored upon 63
times.
While Watson was with OsTi
kosh, C. W. Murphy of National
league notoriety, asked Billy Fox,
manager of the Racine club, Tor
his opinion of the youngster. Fox
told him to buy Watson
Murphy failed to follow Fox's
advice. He Is sorry now.
Hugh Duffy, then manager of
the Milwaukee club, heard of
Watson about the time Murphy
slipped a cog, and looked him
over. So Impressed was "Chooey"
that he bought the big left-hand
er for $750 and two players—
Catcher Snow and Outfielder
Fluharty—lndication enough that
Watson "looked good" to tne
veteran.
For Milwaukee, the fag end of
1912, Watson showed major
league class:
Aug. 29 he lost to Toledo,
"Lefty" James pitching. 4-3; To
ledo made two hits. Watson Is
sued five passes, fanned five and
bit a better.
Sept 1 he defeated Kansas
City; Vaugh pitching, 3-2, giving
five hIU, walking two and fan
ning two.
Sept. 5 he defeated St. Paul
1-0. Dausa pitching; he allowed
six hits, fanned three and wai:<e<x

When you must arise in tlie cold

Can you think a tliuiik, about all

That a feller who's really ,\, .nil

Is the peer simple Kink, who can
possibly think
That there's any excuse for a

If ice cream sody is taboo.
If picture shows are banned;
If vaudeville must be skidoo
Must phonographs be canned?

Once there was a young gink
named Percival Plum. He wore
turned-up cuffs and a greeu
jade necktie pin.
Having quite a little spare
change one day he started in to
lap up all the Red-Eye in town.
The joy parlor folkß sent to
all adjacent cities for relief shlfta
from the partenders' unions and
the workmen In the distilleries
were getting titue-and-a-half for
tc\eral days.
Then Percival paused, for this
bright thought penetrated his
quaker oats:
They can make it faster tlias
you can drink it.
