BROWN In view of the fact that yictory in a baseball game goes to the team scoring the greater number of runs, the man who is proficient at scor- ing said runs must be of some value to a given team. The man who is an adept at get- ting around must have speed, among about within a few points above or below the .300 mark, helped keep him in. But he drew little attention last year, when ho proceeded to grab off an average of 325 In 118 games.

And it takes an awfully good base burglar to hook 12 qxtra ones in the small end of on any team. Speed {s one of the requisites of ® good base stealer. Having delivered this brief lecture we Want to present to you today for your consideration Mr. John An- thony Mostil of the White Sox. He has been leading the league in scoring runs and Stealing bases. Which fact should indicate that he is 4 mighty fast man, for one ‘thing, and a mighty valuable man all around for another, And which facts should be of in- terest to the same Mr. Mostil, in view of the fact that it took him five years to convince the baseball world, that his place was with the great.
