Local admirers of ‘Bill” Walsh, the stellar baseball twirler and cap-, tain of the Fordham college baseball eam, will learn with genuine regret that it is now extremely unlikely that jhe will be able to represent his alma mater on the diamond this year be- cause of a serious injury to his hand. e small idez of the great loss this will be to Fordham may be gleaned ifrom the fact that he turned down a flattering offer from the Federal league in order that he might cap- tain his college throughout the pres- lent season. Walsh, who is also a brilliant basket ball player, has played regu- larly with the Fordham quintet for the past two years and in one of the final games of the present season he ‘ injured in a brisk scrimmage. In foing after the ball one of the fingers '6n his left hand came into violent . bench. contact with an opposing player's teeth. The skin was broken and lat- er blood peisoning set in and then got into the bone the finger. The hand swelled badly and the attend- ing physicians were forced to operate several times. Although “Bill's” finger’ shows con- 1 Express, whose train rammed | stant improvement now it is still very | Bar Harbor Express at North Haven, tender and he is unable to use it in any way and as for his playing ball doctors tell him that it is impossible. Accordingly he has been forced to sit idly by, even though he is the cap- tain, and watch his men from the He is, however, serving his college by coaching the team and ! giving the players the benefit of his | superior knowledge of the finer points of the national pastime, In the mean- time voung Martin, the Southington boy, is doing good work for Ford- ham in the' pitching department and promises to become the standby in ljeu of Walsh. ‘While “BIll” Walsh is having his troubles at Fordham his brother John is making a decidedly favorable im- pression on the baseball coaches at Georgetown university. He has hela down second base in several games already and the head coach has stated { that he looks like the find of the sea- son at Georgetown. Charles Walsh, another one-of the famous “Walsh Brothers,” and a ball player of no mean ability, is said to be a candidate for the Yale Fresh- man nine. All three of these young men are the sons of Mr. and Mrs. John J. Walsh, of Bassett street. i { | ! MILLER ON STAND, Engineer of White Mountain Express Testifies in His Own Behalf.
