Everything will be i baseball Clown now operator of Chow House famous entertainer to n sell a Home plate sandwiches by Whitney Martin a sports writer new York dec. 20-our Friend a1 Schacht will open a restauro which he says modestly a a built 2 my own two hands while waiting in traffic Light to  amp 1 a1 has been entertaining the customer at baseball Parks for years with his be funny pantomime and now that s Bottom has dropped out of that Busine because of transportation and one a he and another he feels he is entitled to i the customers entertain him. He lat easy. In fact just seeing customers walk in makes him smile. A1 is a former baseball Pitcher. Well anyway he was paid to pitch. He is a very Dapper fellow with a head that look like a Buffalo Nickel. The other 2 of the Nickel that is. Give him a code of feathers and a paint Job and he d re for sitting Bull himself. M anyway alas restaurant naturally has baseball As its Motif. It has everything from a Home plate Steak Sandwich feature to a Bull pen so Guys like Johnny Murphy and Joe Beggs would feel right at Home. Private Hall of Fame As a special attraction he plans to install his own private Hall of Fame and has asked his sportsmen friends to help him select an All time All Star baseball team. The selected players will be suit ably honoured by having their picture Hung for All to see. Now this Isnit just an Ordinary All Star team. Most All Star teams have four or five pitchers and a couple of catchers then if you think there Are infielders or outfielders whose absence might cause debate you can shove them in As Utility men and if some fellow thinks one of these Utility men should be in there of can just Tell him to imagine that some player on this imaginary team is Hurt put in his Man. That Way everyone is satisfied except the fellow who is Hurt he wants to know who will  the doctor Bills. Als team leaves no room for a a ifs and a a maybes a and a a i  there i Are just nine positions with one Man for each position including Pitcher and Catcher so when you make your Choice it s just like checking a team in a football Pool. Second guesses Don t count. He asked us to give our lineup Whid. Is quite a compliment but is like asking us to name the coldest Winter since 1880. We Haven t experienced All the Winters since 1880, nor have we seen All the Ball players since that time. All we can Goon is what we have heard and read and the records. Picks a hitting team after two minutes of profound thought we named this lineup Catcher Bill Dickey Pitcher Walter Johnson first base Lou Gehrig second base Rogers Hornsby third base. Pie Traynor shortstop Honus Wagner left Field Tycobb Centerfield Tris speaker right Field babe Ruth. Now there probably Are More loopholes in that team than in a Daisy Chain and old timers and some moderns will Chip it to pieces but for All around Power and at least fair defensive ability wed like to see it against any team. With the exception of Cobb and Wagner and possibly Gehrig Vou could get an argument about any position. Johnny Kling and Roger Bresnahan might be mentioned for Catcher for instance or Christy Mathewson and by Young for Pitcher and Joe Gordon and Frankie Frisch and Bobby Lowe for second base Etc. But you re Only allowed one guess in a1 s system and we be had ours. Weve usually found that the team that gets the most runs wins the games and that team should account for a few. And with a Guy like Johnson out there on the Mound All the fielders would have to he Able to do would be to Point to the Ball. Rig in the catchers Mitt. Yank indians Exchange helped Cleveland most new York dec 20�?new to Yankee followers raised their eyebrows thursday when the Trade was announced sending outfielder Roy Cullenbine and Catcher buddy Rosar to the Cleveland indians for outfielder Roy Weatherly and infielder Oscar Grimes. Offhand it seemed Cleveland got the better of the Deal since Weatherly an Grimes Are weak hitters. President amp Barrow of the Yankees defended the Trade saying a a manager Mccarthy make Weatherly play the Best Ball he it capable of. Personally i think he a make a helluva Good Lead off Man. 0scjr Grimes should be All right to fill incan play first base if we get stuck in quest for a first baseman.
