JOE BOEHLING IS BACK WITH OLD SANDLOTTERS

Five years ago Joe Boehling went to Washington with the Richmond Battle Ax team, champions of the amateur baseball league in Richmond, for a series with the Washington amateur champions. Boehling was the star pitcher of the team, and the stumbling block for the opposition. He set the Washington lads down in order. One of the amateur sporting editors dug up Boehling, and Griff gave the Richmond Thunderbolt a trial. He made good, and the next year after a poor start turned in the record string for straight wins. Then he went to Cleveland, where he was later released. Joe Boehling, manager and pitcher, Richmond Battle Ax team, is the address given by Boehling at present He is seeking games with the soldier teams at the various camps. Joe is back with the sandlotters again.
