DANVILLE GETS PUPIL OF MORDECAI BROWN

Anthony Carlo, the elghteen-year-old left-hander, the property of the Newark club of the International league, was transferred the other day from Terre Haute to Danville of the Thfee-I league. Carlo, who started his baseball career as a bat boy for the Chicago cubs, attracted the attention of Mordecai Brown, who took him In hand and taught him how to pitch. In recommending Carlo to Manager McGinnity Brown said: "That lad has a lot of stuff and hag made rapid

strides at picking up the fine poipts of the game. Give him a chance and you will not regret it.” While with Terre Haute Carlo pitched but two games, winning the first from South Bend In handy fashion. The second contest was lost to Springfield by the score of 5 to 4 through an error of an outfielder, who dropped a fly, letting In two run in the ninth inning. It is expected that Manager Chance will give -the boy a try-out next year.

Anthony Carlo, Youngster Southpaw.
