“Not Bashful” Says Mel Ott To Many Accusations

fiy * ** * • C, .^«..., v y.vcv • -'«■=

Mel Ott, personable young Giants home-run hitter, admits he likes girls and has us many dates as other young men and denies he’s bashful. Baseball, though, is both his business ami hobby. He's shown above as he stands at the plate, gracefully and formidably waiting to smash his rival's pitched ball over the fence for another home run. Above, right, is a closeup showing his strong hands gripping the bat, and below, another view showing him gripping the bat when lie goes through his famous natural swing.

Melvin Ott, 23 years old, Giant's outfield star, is a much misunder \ 1 stood young man, girl-wise, and registers a legitimate, though mild kick, j I It seems Mel has acquired a reputat ion for being extremely bashful, 1 although continually pursued by adoring females of all ages and the J receiver of more mash notes than any man In the big league. Mel: says ihey’r all wrong—that he never got a mash note from a girl in his life. “All the fan mail I get is from \ kids who want to get into the big j league themselves and think I could give them some advice.” As for the suspicion that he flees 1 at the sight of a girl. Ott was mildly 1 aggrieved upon hearing of it. He j has dates even as other young men. he said, and enjoys going to dances, j Why anyone should imagine that he is afraid of women is just another myster.v to him. Baseball, he explained, is both his business and his hobby. “I’ve never wanted to do anything else,” he said, “and T don't think I ever shall. I’m just going to keep on playing as long as I’m able, and I haven’t thought beyond that, nor! made any plans. I don’t know of any, -business I’d ltkp to go into. When Ott left high school in Gretna, La., Harry Williams, a wealthy lumberman of New Orleans, who had organized as a personal hobby several semi-professional baseball teams, procured his services, and when the boy was only sixteen arranged that his friend, John J. McGrow, should see him. In the fall of 1925, Ott came to New York ami the next spring, at seventeen, he was working with the Giants. This new home-run artist is a personable young man, with a quiet and unassuming manner. Slightly over average height and well built, he has very brown hair and brown eyes. And if Melvin Ott hasn’t as yet received any mash notes, it s just because he’s such a modest^boy.
