WE PREPAY ALL MAIL ORDERS Get the Habit: |» y | GONZALES THROUGH? gy Unquestionably the injury to Euse- bio Gonzales of the Toronto team, who was hit on the forehead by a pitched ball during the Reading series, has worked a very serious loss to the eLafs. Gonzales disability, as lar as physical injury is concerned, may be only temporary, but there is also the very great possibility that the player will be "plate shy." Even should he continue in the game, and there was a _trong likelihood prior to his injury that he might retire, his batting effectiveness is apt to be serioysly decreased. That has been the experience of "beaned" players ever since the game reached its pre- sent high development; The loss of no other one player would hamper the Leafs to the same extent as the loss of Gonzales. It is not gemerally known that Toronto asked for waivers on the Cuban last season at the then waiver price of $1,000, and there was not a team in the league ready to take him at that figure. Now there isn't a team in the Toole wheel which would not gladly pay $10,000 to $15,000 for his release. The Philadelphia team of the National League and a team in the American League endeavbred to purchase the Cuban's release during BRINGING UP FATHER | the recent training trip of the Leafs. It i$ intimated that the eagerness of several major league clubs in both circuits to send players to Toronto an option is actuated by a desire to get first chance at Gonzales should he be sold. "Gonzy' is the best base- runner in the International League in spite of the fact that Kane of Jersey City led 'him by one or two steals last season, Kane was aliow- ed to "run wild" with the seventh- place Skeeters, whereas Gonzales was mada to play the game, and he got no assistance from 'Altenberg, who batted immediately behind him. Had Gonzales stolen third base with two out, as Kane did frequently, he prob- ably would have been fined and sus- pénded, Two days before the Cuban star was injured at Reading he informed Manager Onslow that he contemplat- ed going into business in Rochester with a fellow-countryman, Gonzales is dissatisfied with his present berth, but declines to discuss the matter further than to say that there is an immed'ate likelihood of his getting out of baseball. His injury still pre- cludes the possibility of his playing.
