THE KEY WEST CITIZEN EDITOR Joe Hauser, the Milwaukee or} Minneapolis Mauler, depending upon whether you identify him with his birthplace or his present nu place of baseball employment, will} not return to the major leagues on} jthe strength of his latest home run ‘ hitting exploits, but he seems to enjoy a steady job slugging Class} double-A_ pitching into uncon- | Sciousness. To go back a few years, Hauser was in a fair way to making him.) self very useful to Connie Mack in the reconstruction of the Athletics when he broke his knee-cap in an *|exhibition game wtih the Phillies fin the spring of 1925. He was un- able to play for the rest of the: season, failed to recover entirely from the accident and was relegat- ed because of his slowness to a minor league career. But he could still hit, so the rec- ‘ord shows, and it was not long be- fore Hauser was cracking the fences again with great regularity. | With the Baltimore Orioles of 1930 Hauser connected for 63 circuit} clouts, a new all-time minor league record, three more than Babe Ruth's major league mark.
