Scorer: Aguilar, WVV VV VV VVC FOLLOWING THROUGH PEDRO AGUILAR lames essssssassseae THOUGHTS OF “TONY HEAD” Anthony Cabozas, better known to his friends here as “Tony Head”, died in Key West this week. He is remembered by all! the older fans of the city when he was a star pitcher here, hurling for the Coast Guards, Regulars and several other clubs in the city. He also pitched against sev- eral clubs that visited the city and always was a great mounds- man, “Tony” hurled a number of no- hit and one-hit games. His famous spitball was known all along the Florida east coast. Pawing through my scrapbooks T came across accounts ‘of some of the games in which “Tony” pitched. Among his, best games were some played in 1924, ’25 and 26 when he was a member of the mound staffs of the Regulars and other clubs. On Labor Day, 1935, “Tony” relieved Jimmie Griffen, pitching for the Regulars, in the fourth against Okeechobee City nine and held the hard-hitting upstaters hitless and runless the rest of the way, although Key West lost, 8 to 3. On September 9 of the same year when the same clubs met again, “Tony” relieved Quintan Lopez and allowed only two hits the last three innings. A year later, Sept. 6, 1936, An-! thony shutout the American Le- gion nine, giving up but one hit.| His teammates were Talbot, catch- er; Maloney, first; McCollough, second; Smoker, third; Barnes, short; Taylor, Keene and Harris, | outfield. | Going back to 1927, on January 6 of that year, young “Tony Head hurled twelve innings against the Legion and won 3 to 2. Legion scored two runs in the first inning on hits by Griffen, Kulas and Clements, but from there on out ionnaires failed to’ get a hit or score a run., “Tony” had in his lineup at that time: Smok- er, “Pie” Fernandez, Ward, In- graham, Key, Talbot, Pent and McCollough. His team had won the game in the twelfth when Smoker singled and scored on a sacrifice and a single by Ward. On April 17, 1927, “Tony” was in good form. He struck out 18 batters and won, 8 to 0, over the Stars. “Pie” Fernandez was his battery mate then. His opponents included Castaneda, Perez, Val- dez, G. Garcia, Martinez, Diaz, Gonzalez, and others. Fans, teammates of his days of glory on the diamond and all who knew him regret the passing of “Tony Head”, a great pitcher. May he rest in peace, is their last request. Buys Property $200. cash bond each, for a hear- 326 Peacon Lane. Frank A.

He also suspended the license held by Mrs. Helene Wolfson, former operator of Club Sugaloa, Stock Island, who informed Vo- celle she had no defense to of- fer against charges she too prac- ticed fraud and deceit in obtain- ing her license. This morning the evidence sub- mitted was highlighted by the testimony of Martin Lliraldi, Cu- ban consul, who said that SanjNew classes in photographic mod- Carlos school was the property owned by the Cuban Government and that the property paid no lo- cal, county, state, federal or school taxes. He also said the San ce los building was occupied by his own offices, the Palace Theater and other quarters. Attorney Emmett C.
